In case you missed it, we're doing a few Stump the Rios/Iron the Pants contests in conjunction with GraphicAudio.net.

All the information can be found at the beginning of Episode 542 (comic movie talk with Tom Martinek).

Bring it on!

POINT OF PARLIAMENTARY PROCEDURE!

Does this include previously submitted but as yet unattempted Stump the Rios' that satisfy the 3 question (DC/Marvel/Other) criteria or only those submitted following the announcement in Episode 542?

RIOS!!!

I'm a seething torrent of rage!

Fine I'll play your little game. I'll play by your rules, before it was just a matter of a little fun... I wasn't it for the prize but then you went and made it personal.

I better go read some comics I got some horrible little questions to find.

I used...
comicgeekspeak@gmail.com

I did one for Pants and one for Rios.
I assume I can only win once and that I can keep submitting until I win.

Obviously the contest ends when we run out of supplies (unless we get a new batch). Like we have done in the past with other sponsored Stump the Rios segments (the Markosia trades, Atomika trades, etc.), we'll go in order that we receive them. Not sure if we'll do one STR and one ITP in one episode or split them up across multiple episodes.

Remember the rules:

STUMP THE RIOS:
1 question (if you have an "and" in the middle of your question that's two questions!!!!) for DC, 1 for Marvel, 1 for Other - comic book related.

IRON THE PANTS:
1 question from the 50s, 1 for 60s and 1 for 70s - TV related.

Information that is anecdotal or can only be found in history books - and not in an actual comic or TV show - are thrown out. So plan accordingly.

If you include bonus questions, and they are guessed correctly, you do not win. In other words, just stick to three questions and your chances are greater. lol

Cool. I haven't listened yet so I'll assume at least the first failed, which is why they allowed the 2nd.

I REALLY like the Graphic Audio stuff so here's hoping for a win.
