The first two questions of the quiz are just general OCF knowledge. Poke around OCF for a while and you'll find them.

Just a general tip. Best of luck!

I have entered and I believe I got 4 tickets to my name... Now can I enter multiple times?

One per household. We want to give everyone an opportunity to win. With 4 tickets though, you have a better chance than a lot of the people who entered.
:)

Before I enter I'd like to know, is this open to US residents only? Also, when's the contest close?

At this time - I don't have a contest end date - we're playing around with Aug 13 (our next episode).

US only - sorry not to mention that before!
 
I want to enter, but still debating... better chances for others if I stay away with the right answers. :)
 
Sam and g0dm@n, you should both enter. You deserve a chance just as much as anyone else does. Since only me and Jordan have access to the entries, its impossible for any foul play to be involved. The winner will be chosen completely random using a random number generator.

+1 Why should any member, blue, green, or otherwise be restricted?

I finally got around to listening to the whole podcast and entered btw ;) lol. I hope more than we see posting are actually entered.

You guys are right, but I'm well off, and I'm sure there are many others that aren't or are young and don't have good savings like me. :) I'm sure Sam could say the same.
