The Countdown!
World Rabies Day Trivia Challenge
Yes, it's a day dedicated to being aware of rabies. In commemoration of this exciting holiday, I made a trivia game. While I couldn't get the answers to submit automatically, you can send your answers to me through the PM system, and whoever gets the most answers right will receive a prize (probably a simple piece of art). I'll give you until Sunday night to respond. Credit goes to rabies survivor Jeanna Giese for two of these questions.

Someone told me about it.
I'll still be accepting entries for one more day, so if you'd like a chance to win artwork of questionable quality, it's not too late!
