{{ A TRIP DOWN MEMORY LANE }}

Yes, this used to be a contest *O*

✪ ✪ ✪


3/2/2010
Prizes have been sent out to the 5 winners. Again, congrats :]

I've decided to move this thread later in the day into the Gaia Resources subforum, where people can still decide to give some of the questions a shot - but just for fun. Where only the satisfaction of knowing more random knowledge that you will never need to use in real life is your prize xD

Answers will also be posted for those of you aching to know, but not wanting to spend the time digging around for answers.


The first 5 to answer them all (a.k.a. our winners):

Sparrow511, sleepypuppy3, xo_talya_xo, Fantasmasque, and Zunkie.
