We are now up and over 30 people participating in 3 Questions, thank you to everyone for showing intrest. Still about 4 weeks to go until we crown the ultimate "FIRST History Nerd!" Here are the top 10 point leaders after last week.

Congrats so far to the top...er...11

To everyone else, keep shootin for the top. It only takes one or two good days and you are right back into the thick of things. Plus, there may also be some sort of prize for anyone who makes it to the top 10 (or 11) also! Don't give up!

Good Luck!
