    DOH! meant to say winner is announced 24 hours after comp closes as there is a 24 hour period for people to appeal if they think the sites answer is wrong.

    Also there's a league table so people can see how they are doing. I'm currently top but that will change soon as I'm going on holiday for a week! I've also won £90 in vouchers :j

    " If you want to be the first to answer you should research the website of the sponsor in order to answer the qualifing question immediately."

    Sounds somewhat time consuming. And tedious.

    the prizes so far have been sponsored by the site. I think there was only a question one day and that was something like how much does it cost to join to play for monthly prize. Every other day there was just a button saying enter that you had to click

    Hi,
    My name is Jason and I run the site. (I noticed a spike in my traffic this morning coming from here)

    At present the site is in it's infancy and so there are no sponsors on board yet. However, when traffic is built up to a degree where I can attract sponsors there will be a multiple choice question to answer before you can access the main question. This will be very simple and immediately obvious from the sponsors website. For example it may only be "how many megapixel is Canon's new digital camera?" with a link to the page the information is stored on.

    I've had lots of positive feedback on the questions being asked. They are challenging sure enough, but always interesting.

    Just to add also that we operate a strict privacy policy and no details are sold or shared with anyone.

    At present there is only a very small pool of players. So chances of winning are extremely good.

    Enjoy the site and best of luck,
    Jason
