The Contest

by Just Juan September 10, 2021

 

Welcome to The Book of Juan. In a first for this website, we are hosting a contest. Over the weekend of September 10-12, the Do You Know The Book of Juan Contest will be presented. I won’t waste any time explaining the nature of the contest…

ABOUT THE CONTEST. The Do You Know The Book of Juan Contest is a trivia contest that consists of 2 parts: (1) a quiz contest that consists of 50 single choice and multiple choice questions and (2) a single-round Jeopardy!-style quiz competition. Each question in the contest comes directly from the content in The Book of Juan. With the exception of the Experiences in Love and A Mother’s Love series, the entire history of the website is in play.

CONTEST LOCATION. The contest is located on The Book of Juan’s FlexiQuiz site. It can be found at https://www.flexiquiz.com/SC/N/TheBookOfJuan.

CONTEST DATES & TIMES. The first part of the contest is the Daily Prize Quiz. It will feature 3 separate sessions—one each on September 10, September 11, and September 12. The Daily Prize Quiz will be open from 10:00AM Eastern Time to 10:00PM Eastern Time on each day. The second part of the contest is the Grand Prize Showdown. It will be a single session, held on October 2 at 8:00PM Eastern Time.

GENERAL CONTEST RULES FOR THE DAILY PRIZE QUIZ. During the Daily Prize Quiz, contestants will have 20 minutes to complete a trivia quiz of 50 questions. The questions will be entirely single choice and multiple-choice questions. The quiz must be completed in a single sitting and contestants will only be able to access it once per day. If a contestant runs out of time, all of their existing answers will automatically be submitted for scoring. To encourage fair play amongst contestants, the edit commands (cut, copy, paste, print, right mouse click menu) have been disabled for this contest. However, contestants are allowed to view The Book of Juan website at their discretion during the contest and may use any of the applicable features on the website. Each session of the Daily Prize Quiz will have a single winner…the top scorer of that day’s session. If, at the end of the individual sessions, there are multiple contestants with the top score, there will be a tiebreaker round to determine a single winner. The tiebreaker round will be open from 11:00PM Eastern Time until 9:00AM Eastern Time the next morning—approximately 1 hour after the end of that day’s session until 1 hour before the start of the next day’s session. The tiebreaker round will consist of a 5-question, 1-minute quiz. The three winners of the Daily Prize Quiz will qualify for entry into the Grand Prize Showdown.

GENERAL CONTEST RULES FOR THE GRAND PRIZE SHOWDOWN. During the Grand Prize Showdown, the winning contestants from the Daily Prize Quiz will participate in a Jeopardy!-style quiz competition. It will consist of 30 questions evenly split amongst 6 different categories. Additionally, there will be a final round in which contestants make point wagers before answering the final round question. The questions will be presented in the form of answers and contestants must phrase their responses in the form of questions. Contestants will be informed of the categories ahead of time so they can make the proper preparations. Like Jeopardy!, there will be a Daily Double clue and contestants are penalized for misses, failures to respond, insufficiently specific responses, or failures to phrase the response as a question. The Grand Prize Showdown will have a single winner…the top scorer at the end of the final round. While it is not advised on account of the time constraints on individual questions, contestants are allowed to view The Book of Juan website at their discretion during the contest and may use any of the applicable features on the website.

PRIZES. The Do You Know The Book of Juan Contest will feature four (4) total prizes: a prize for each of the Daily Prize Quiz session winners and a grand prize for the winner of the Grand Prize Showdown. The Daily Prize winner will be presented with an electronic gift card—or eGift card—from a major American retailer. The gift card will have a value of $50 USD. The winners of the Daily Prize Quiz sessions will receive their gift card, via email, no later than 11:00PM Eastern Time—approximately 1 hour after the end of the day’s session. If the tiebreaker round is necessary, the gift card will be delivered by 9:30AM Eastern Time the next morning. The winner of the Grand Prize Showdown will receive an electronic funds transfer, valued at $500 USD, via PayPal. The EFT will be issued no later than 10:00PM Eastern Time on October 2, 2021—approximately 1 hour after the end of the Grand Prize Showdown session.

ELIGIBILITY. All contestants of the Do You Know The Book of Juan Contest should be at least 18 years of age. Entrants into the contest should register with a legitimate email address that is capable of receiving electronic gift cards from major American retailers and electronic funds transfers from PayPal.
