Only one letter and one number can be paired together.

One answer per person. Please send your answers to me by PM. In case of multiple correct answers, the random number generator will be used.

Good luck!

Good Grief! How about asking what color Usagi's kimono is or something like that.

This may take me a while.

[Steve Hubbell]

Had to make some slight changes....

[Gaffey]

Today is my free day. I'll try to figure this out.

Hot diggity dog, I got them all right! This was a another tough challenge.

My trivia challenge won't require any Usagi knowledge at all, but it will be Stan related. I'll put it up later today.
