Dale Dassel, GA, USAA message from Adam McDaniel:
The number of entries was extraordinary, from people around the globe -- USA, UK, Belgium, New Zealand, Australia, Canada, and Greece to name a few. Ironically, nearly half of the top ten scores came from outside of the USA!
I was really amazed by the results. Though no one quite broke the autograph-winning score, I wasn't expecting you to. The top ten scores were close -- requiring Micah and I to check, re-check, and tri-check (is that a word?) them via constant email and faxes between his home on the East Coast and my home on the West Coast. We had to be sure to get them right, and often it caused many a fax jam. I can not thank Micah enough for his willingness to help out in double-checking the answers; it really did take us a long time.
I also must give due attention to you, the players. I was overwhelmed by your vast knowledge, and can't imagine just how much research you had to cram into two weeks' time. I may make up the questions, but couldn't answer them if I was put in your position; whereas I had years of collecting materials as references, and spent several weeks writing the contest, there's no way I could meet the challenge the way you guys did. I hope you enjoyed it.
