Tapos na po ang contest. THANK YOU VERY MUCH, you nutty Beerkadets, for joining. I hope you had as much fun as I did. Medyo magulo, pero next time, aayusin ko na.
First, ang mga sagot sa "mahihirap" na tanong sa FINAL ROUND:
1. How many registered members are there in the Beerkada Forum? As of 7:00 this morning, there are 193 Registered Members. Ngayon yata, 194 na. Ang sagot ay makikita sa front page ng forum, sa bandang ibaba.
2. Sino sa mga Beerkada characters ang HINDI pa nakaka - GRADUATE? ALAN POLANTOC. Shempre, sa Beerkada books and strips po ito malalaman.
3. Lyndon Gregorio is a member of an artist's (support) group. What is the name of this group? Artists' Den. Madalas ma-mention sa blog at sa forums din, lalo na pag may AD sponsored event na gine-gatecrash, este, sinusuportahan ng mga Beerkadets.
4. What is the exact date of the GO - BEERKADA BOOK LAUNCH and where was it held? May 21, 2005, Powerbooks Greenbelt. May post tungkol dito sa forums, at may entry din sa blog.
5. "...discovered Elec-tron is positive." Which "Pilipino" did this? Salenga or Saleng-a or Saleng-ga. Whatever. Alam ko na yun. May banggit sa blog at sa forum.
6. Nung nag - aaral pa ang Beerkada, ano ang course ni Jimmy? Math. Nabanggit ito sa isang lumang topic on Beerkada Trivia. So kung pagtiyatiyagaan, makikita. Tsaka shempre nasa books and strips din.
7. Ano - ano ang status sa Beerkada Forums? Name each status and the corresponding number of posts. Shempre, alam nyo na ito, Freshie, Sophomore, Junior, Senior pag naka 100 posts na, Beerkadet pag 500 posts, 1000- Carpooler, 2000 posts - Classmate, 5000 posts - Ultimate Beerkadet!! Nasa forums po ang information na ito, and any Beerkadet who posts regularly will know.
8. When did the first ever Beerkada strip appear in the Philippine Star? June 4, 1998. An important clue was posted on my blog. Hindi ko sinabi ng diretso yung date, pero dapat alam nyo kung ano ang birthday ni Lyndon Gregorio, na nasa forum naman.
9. When the forum was just a baby, Lyndon Gregorio conducted a search for a moderator. Sadly, that moderator "disappeared"/became inactive after he/she (we never found out which, I think) was chosen moderator. Who was "it", that is, who was chosen Moderator? Creux Kiritani. Konting tiyaga at makikita ito sa mga lumang topics/threads.
10. Jinky is my real name but it is just a nickname. What is my REAL NAME? Ayoko na sanang banggitin ulit dahil mabaho. Atin-atin na lang: Ma. Jennifer M. Laurel. Wala ito sa blog ko, pero andoon ang apelyido ko. Alam ko na beforehand na itatanong ko ito, kaya prior to that ay nag-post ako sa forum tungkol sa mga Junk Mail na natatanggap ko. Doon nabanggit ang complete first name ko.
11. What is Lyndon Gregorio's favorite color? Green. Nasa Porky's Grill din ito.
12. What is the "Beerkada" cellphone number? Nasa forum at nasa blog. Yoko na po ulitin ang number dito.
13. Complete this "profile": (to get the score, all blanks must be filled with the correct word) The mere touch of Lyndon Gregorio is said to turn wine to vinegar, blight crops, blast gardens, kill seedlings, bring down fruit from trees, dim mirrors, blunt razors, rust iron and brass, drive bees from their hives, and cause mares to miscarry. Beware. Nasa Beerkada Blog po ito, sa About Me.
14. Who is Lyndon's favorite Beerkada Character? Andrea. Answer found in "Porky's Grill", in the forum.
15. Beerkadets were in support of three Artists' Den events at Gloria Jean's in Gateway. Name these three events and the dates they were held. Beerkada goes to G.J. Araneta August 13-19, Carpool Coffee Trip August 25-27, Ninja Fiesta October 10,12,14.
And finally, the BONUS QUESTION:
What is the total number of unique Beerkada strips ever printed from the first strip up to October 22, 2005? (The one who gets the exact figure, or the one closest to the correct figure without going over WINS the bonus point.) The exact figure, according Mr. L himself, is 2,095. Computation lang po ang katapat. Pero shempre, you have to know the date the first strip came out, less Good Fridays, Black Saturdays and Sundays, etc.
I would have posted links to the answers mismo within the blog or forum, pero as you know, the forum has been re-organized kaya next time na lang. Or not. Kung di nyo pa rin makita, i-PM nyo ako, heheh.
At ang mga nagwagi:
WING ZERO - got all but one answer right, at hindi naman sobrang mali. He answered 1998 to Q#8, but since everyone else answered more completely, that is with Month and Day, I had to mark his answer incomplete. Wing also came closest to the exact figure for the bonus question without going over. 1,669, he said. Kai was close at 2600, but went over.
iLENZ - got 14/15. He got L's favorite character wrong and said it was Jimmy.
FRAGGLE ROCK - got 13/15. Got the date of Q8 wrong and his answer to Q7 was incomplete.
A close 4th was LORIE. She got 13 answers also, but Fraggle sent his answers ahead of her (Fraggle was the first to submit among all who joined the contest). She got a Beerlennium as consolation prize.
Then: Kai with 12, mikel with 11, Chard with 9, monsy with 6. The rest quit the game by self - elimination or not sending in answers, which is probably the same thing. The rest got Beerlenium and Kiko Machine as consolation prizes, although I think I have not given Kai and mikel and monsy their consolation prizes yet, for staying till the end of the contest. Pili na lang kayo from the Beerkada merchandise available, like pins or books (wag lang buong set, hehe)

Kayo na lang ang walang consolation prize. Please choose from available Beerkada Merchandise, pwera Boxed Set shempre and t-shirt. Pins siguro tsaka kung ano mang copy ng Beerkada books.
Teka nga pala sa mga grand prize and consolation prize winners: bakit panay ang thank you nyo, eh pinanalunan nyo naman yun, ano? You worked hard for your prizes and deserve them. Well done, Beerkadets!
Sira, para sa inyong lahat yung "well done", `no? Kaya nga may prize din kayo. Yung mga nag-join, may prize! Ah, alam ko na! Buttons na maliit, gusto nyo? Pa-drawing na lang kayo k Mr. L tapos buttonin natin.

How did you do? Did you check your answers? Ano sana ang score mo? Just curious.

Because I wouldn't have been able to hold a boxed set I could call my own without your generosity, Ate Jinky. We know you set aside enough of what little free time you have in order for this contest to become a reality. Does that even make sense
