"It is time for me to speak publicly. Long, has the Upper Echelon here in Babylon walked around these streets of ours waving their silk underwear in our general direction. Long, has the Kash Bowl been under the influence of the "Corporate Machine*". Long, have we prostrated ourselves in front of their smelly feet...

Well here and now, we have an oppurtunity to regain a sense of self-worth for our country, our kash, and our music - the music of Hall and Oates!

How can we do this? A Duel! A Trivia Duel! Indeed!

Team BACK will comprise of Myself, Lolita, and Tiglath.

Team Upper Echelon (UE for short) will comprise of Cail, Apil, and jojo...hell we'll throw in Ioannis for you guys too...You'll need him.

Here is how the Duel will be played out. Each team will present three of the selected catagories to the other team. That team will then be able to drop one of the catagories and add in one of their stronger catagories from the group. Teams will have one month to put together a set of ten questions for each catagory. On the selected day of the contest, teams will have 15 minutes to answer per question at a designated board or thread. Each question will be worth one point. Who ever has the most questions correct wins...and what do they win?

The Deed To The Kash Bowl...

So, Put Your Kash Where Your Mouth Is! And Let's Roll."
