    Would it have been possible to enter multiple contests by using different addresses and e-mails?

    I.E. going to college and using your own address and that of your parents' house?

    I didn't do it and I didn't win, but I'm curious how they figure out if you've entered multiple times.

          Um, I am not sure you have the Mongol answers correct.

          As Locutus pointed out, isn't Temujen and 4 (not three). It matters to me because that is what I had but I would assume at this point it is probably too late to switch who gets the game.

            yeah, like i was saying, this question makes no sense... BTW i missed this one

                Because I won. Sorry.

                I'm happy about it, though. It's been a long time since I was interested in an RTS. I'm usually a Turn-based man, myself

                    I'm surprised enough that I won anything at all. I never win things. It's not in my nature.

                    Hey, at least all those history lessons from Elementary school about countries I'd never visit finally came in handy.

                      Hmmm, no official response to Locutus' post. Like I said, I don't think things can or should necessarily be switched but it would be good to hear a response.

                        We had already send the names to MS. Copies were scheduled to be sent yesterday or today. I'm sorry, but we couldnt get into a process of making changes.

                          yep there were number of incorrect answers in the contest ...

                          ya i can verify locutus on the mongol answers, but there is ambiguty on the chinese concubine question, and second what he said about the chinese one, the drowning would be the one more well know, besides which that pretty much the most popular way to die in Chinese legends. If anyone knows about the legend behind Dragon Boat races. Hanging and drowning , the two most popular chinese suicide techniques of antiquity.

                          guess maybe thats why only 1 person got it right in those two.

                          but hey what the heck, if they went with the correct answers, it probably would have come down to a random draw between the people who had it right. its all gravy anyways if u win.
