Default AUDIOFILER'S HOLIDAY & END OF YEAR GIVEAWAY - 2007 - Star Wars Trivia & Raffle!! FREE!!

OK,
So I am kind of short on funds this year, what with getting married and attending 5 other out of state weddings. As a result, this years holiday giveaway is a fun contest based on a Star Wars Trivia Question.

Rules:

- Please send a PM to Audiofiler with the correct response. Please DO NOT post the answer in the thread, as that only gives the answer to everyone and decreases one's chances of winning.
- Winners must have been a headfi member at least 1 month on the boards. (Nov 14 or before)

I shall gather up all the correct responses and draw a headfi member name from a hat on December 18'th, which is my birthday. Winner shall be notified in this thread and Via PM! This way, there are several days and the weekend for those whom mean to participate. Seems like a neat and spirited idea. I shall cover all shipping costs so the winner needs only to reply correctly Via PM, and then have his/her name drawn accordingly for the win.

Prize:

I am giving away a brand new pair of KSC-75 Koss Stereo Headphones ( Brand new / never opened), a Starbucks Gift card, a custom made mix cd (with some great tunes comprised of some nice songs for the holiday), and a really nice new tailgating recipe book. Great little package for the winner!

Here is the question!

How many shots does Han Solo fire off into the hands of Darth Vader in the scene shot in the clouds, where Boba Fett is present, and where Leia, Chewie, and Solo are invited for "refreshments"? (NOTE: Answer is based on the ORIGINAL THX 2.0 scene from the original movie from VHS and Laser Disc.. and not the THX re-released version with all the new visual effects. This is in case if the scenes happen to be different. You are looking for this answer from the original motion picture, ESB Episode V)

How many blaster shots are absorbed by Darth Vader's hand?



THAT is the question!!


Play and WIN the Audiofiler 2007 Giveaway!

How kind to be in the holiday spirit.

Unfortunately, I know nothing about Star Wars.

I have Star Wars on VHS somewhere in my closet. I'll dig it up when I get the chance and (hopefully) find the right answer.

Thanks for your generosity!

Wow, this contest seems perfect for me, as I was once (and am still partially) a huge Star Wars fan.


However, I'll give this up for other people to try and win, as I already have a pair of KSC 75s.


Thanks for the contest though, Audiofiler!

I think that prior to their well deserved destruction the proliferation of hollow post whoring threads must have removed this one from sight before it could be appreciated.

That is a shame, I might have found motivation to actually BUY a VCR (which I have been thinking about anyway) and rent this movie... I love the "treasure hunt" type of trivia contests.
