Personal Observations of a Host:
I will say this last round was a bit of a flop. There were fewer than 75=20

there would be at=20
least 4-500 players. There were never that many players in any of the=20
rounds. (180 max)=20
Why? I dont know. We gave away several licences to titles like NSBasic,=20
InkSpot,=20
Address Access and all of Catamounts Titles, Batterys for 2100, leather=20
CAses, UNNA=20
CD's, T-Shirts, NewtsCape, and even Newtons.
Were the questions to hard?
Were the prizes that lousy?
Did the contest run too long?
Do people just not care?
Did anyone know about it?
Have all the new list members ever seen the site? Are the old Newt sites jus=
t=20
no longer=20
exciting enough?
Just a few thoughts to see if its worth the effort to try and run again next=

year.
