February Trivia Prize Pack

It's time for another trivia prize pack!

As always, thanks to Stan for all the items he has donated for these giveaways. They wouldn't be possible without his generosity. Special thanks to Shadowfax (at least I believe it was he) for his donation this month of The Mother of Mountains book and Gaffey for donating the Get Caught Reading poster included in this month's prize pack. More thanks goes out to all the artists who have been kind enough to provide original sketches for the sketch cards (especially Travis Hanson, who has provided 6 of them so far). Finally, thanks to all of you for participating and making this a great forum.

So, how does one win a prize pack? Here's how:

*Participate in the weekly trivia as you normally do.
*The winner or winners (if more than one) of the weekly trivia will be entered into the monthly prize drawing. If you win a weekly trivia question and don't want to be entered into the prize giveaway, just PM me and I'll exclude you from the randomizer at the end of the month.
*The winners of the trivia that ends during the prize month are eligible (for example, if a weekly trivia ends on April 30th, you qualify for April's prize pack, if it ends May 1st, you'd be in May's drawing).
*As people win the weekly trivia contests, I'll update the list of all the winners (in the order they won) and then use a random number generator (https://www.random.org/) to select the Prize Pack winner.
*I will announce in this thread who the prize pack winner is and contact them via PM for shipping info. International participants are welcome to play along.
*These rules are subject to change on subsequent months if there are bugs to work out.

For the month of February, here's what's up for grabs (remember, if it's signed in the picture, then the item you receive will be signed as well). Items are not to scale :D :

About the artist - This month's original Usagi sketch card is by Travis Hanson, who always asks me for a blank sketch card every time I see him at a convention so he can contribute to the prize packs. Travis is the Eisner nominated creator of web comic The Bean, described as an "epic fantasy tale of a dishwasher." Besides his work on The Bean, Travis has written several other books, contributed to The Sakai Project (page 132), and recently successfully crowdfunded his kitty vs alien card game No Mercy. He is currently running a Kickstarter for his new Dungeons and Dragons themed comic strip book called Life of the Party: The Realities of an RPG'er. It runs through the morning of Thursday, Feb 9th: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/48 ... of-a-rpger

2. Slashuur
3. Mayhem

Another month, another prize. Will Slashuur triumph with his 50% odds of winning, or will Warren pull off the upset? Maybe Mayhem will secure a win for the British Empire? Nobody knows! So it is up to the randomizing power of the internet to determine who will walk away with some sweet swag.

So the numbering order is:

1. Warren
2. Slashuur
3. Mayhem
4. Slashuur

And, with a deft couple clicks of my mouse, the winner is...

#4, Slashuur, our friend to south! Congrats! I believe Gaffey is first mailing the Dantes Verlag prizes to me and then I'll put that in with everything else and get it shipped out to you.
