RTS Trivia Contests

[randyith]

Hello All,

My name is Randy the co-founder of RTS Vapes. We are excited about being promoted to forum supplier and one of the first site changes will be reinstating out trivia contests. When we were a registered supplier we had to stop the contests but as a forum supplier we are allowed.

The trivia contests were quite popular. Basically, a trivia contest asks between 5 and 12 questions on a particular subject. The first person to answer all questions correctly wins RTS Vapes rewards points which can be reimbursed at www.rtsvapes.com to buy products from us.

We typically have prizes ranging from 50 to 600 ($46) rewards points.

We will be posting contests under this thread weekly starting later this week. Please follow this thread so as not to miss out.

Thank you,

Randy
