HOW TO PARTICIPATE – let me know you want to at gpaulbailey@usa.net

First you will need access to a computer ( but then again if you are reading this you probably have that ).
You will need a minimum of a 28.8 kbaud internet connection going to get the audio feed.
Team members will follow the progress of the contest over the internet by listening to KVSC in St. Cloud, Minnesota
There are links there to the streaming audio player software that you will need if they are not already installed on your computer.

TEST the link above and let me know if you can hear the feed.  It is possible that network traffic will from time to time interrupt the broadcast.
We hope that this will not be as prevalent on the weekend, but if you just are not getting the feed you can still play along with us.

There will be 8 to 10 questions per hour announced one or two at a time.  
The questions will be repeated at least once and will be valued at 10 to 300 points and must be answered in 5 to 10 minutes
This is truly a marathon - 50 straight hours from 5pm (4pm MST) Friday the 2nd of February to 7pm (6pm MST) Sunday the 4th 2001.
We will need people for all times - either on-line to listen and transcribe questions to post on the chatroom we are setting up or to email to the team
TO GET INFO ON THE CHATROOM SEND EMAIL TO gpaulbailey@usa.net
Time will be of the essence, so free associate, run on, etc. so that we can get an answer together.
The captain at the time will then call the radio station and submit the answer.
