Tenth Man

contest

Welcome to the contest on Tenth Man! Answer the questions correctly, be the first to send in your answers, and you stand to win a gift certificate to Powell’s, a huge group of bookstores — new and resale — that have created a sort of super-collective bookstore with all titles available listed online. It is, in a word, wonderful.

There are two prizes: a $25 gift certificate for first place and a $10 certificate for second. The first readers to send the most correct answers win. Only readers are eligible: the editorial staff of Bewildering Stories, their families, pets, and farm machinery are not.

E-mail text only, no attachments, please. Here is your e-mail link:
