you've guessed it, it's that time of the year again! i might be a year older, i most definitely am not a year wiser, but i had plenty of time on my hands, and as i also happen to have couple of keys just lying around, i've decided to put em to some good use...

while thinking how to make this at least a tad more interesting different than usual, i came up with the silliest of idea i even gave this monstrosity a name!. now, see, i got this series of tasks before you, where you are supposed to order the available answers to make your way further. the correctly ordered markings of the answers will spell out the next giveaway link.
i kinda imagined it to be like a cheap trivial pursuit knock off, you know, crappy long ar*e game that nobody really knows the answers to, but yet everyone crowds in to play. sure, this is nowhere near as long, and it certainly must be even more crappy, which is by itself an achievement, but still... yeah, who will not instantly get hooked after an introduction like that, ay?

anyhow, if you do decide to join in i can promise you one thing: you will learn diddly squat by going through this plight. maybe even less than that, be ready to unlearn stuff!

for the sake of having any rules, let's hear em out:

  • you need the markings of 5 consecutive correct answers in the designated order to find the link to the next giveaway
  • there might be more than the required 5 correct answers, but take them in the proper order and dump the rest
  • incorrect options will sometimes be offered as well, steer clear of those
  • there are no right or wrong answers, all the effort counts of course, this is not true, any effort is appreciated, but only correct answers will get you forward, you silly gullible guys

no darn add-on, script or plugin nonsense will help you out here, you are all on your own well, you and the knowledge of the whole world wide web...
this trash key trivia abomination is for levels 3 and up and it ends on my factory day, the 3rd of july.
it's been a while since i've done anything remotely similar to this, so hang tight, hope this works!

okay, practice round, lets try out this on the simplest of tasks to get this going:

order me order you arabic numerals (ascending)

U) 9
            h) 5
    p) 1
B) 8        7) &    
                R) 6
    t) 3
            1) X
