How to Enter

Entering is really easy! Either fill in the details on this page and click the 'Enter' button (if your browser supports forms), or alternatively just send me a quick email at glm20@cam.ac.uk saying you'd like to enter, and answering the following really easy questions - they may look daunting but they're not! The answers are all straightforward. If you don't know the answers click on the company/game logos above or attached to the questions to find out the answers! The winner will be drawn at random from all correct answers received. Please give your email a subject of 'Entry', if you can.

Your entry should include your real name - not a handle. If you do not include your real name then your entry will be rejected. Inclusion of a telephone number will allow prompt notification of success, should you choose to give it.

There are no catches, no tie-breakers or hidden clauses. You will NOT be added to any mailing lists! All you need to do is answer the eight questions below and tell me your name and email address! For the question answers you can either give the list number/letter or the text (or both!)- it's up to you.

The winner will be announced shortly after the closing date.
