Remember mistermickster's excellent contest "A Trifle Trivial" based loosely around the Trivial Pursuit game? Well this time we have a new edition where the categories are all previous Puzzletome contests. The puzzle-setters for this consist of the biggest and most diverse group for any Puzzletome contest yet devised. It promises to be a corker!

The contest will be launched on Tuesday 26th July at 8:00pm GMT (that's 9:00pm BST for all in the UK). Be there or be a regular two dimensional quadrilateral polygonal object.

Reminder of Tuesday's contest, which will be fab.

DELETE AS APPLICABLE:

1. No, because our best players are *you*, *all of you*, our beloved public. We love you so much. Kiss kiss.
2. Yes, and therefore the contest will be our best due to the massive amount of brainpower devoted to it.
3. Yes, although since I am one of the contributers, the negative quotient that entails offsets any possibility of a 'best' description.
4. <suckingup> But how could that be? *You* are the best player, stozz. </suckingup>
5. Yes. Madame Whiplash, aka Andy's Mum, has flayed them within an inch of their lives and they can no longer type.
