A couple of questions regarding entry and prizes...
1. Is entry limited to USA citizens only or international (I.e. everyone)?
2. If the entry is international will the prizes be limited to US versions (Non international compatible..)? |

So someone from, say, europe could win the prize, but it would be a US version that is given to them; is that what you mean ?

What exactly does the requirement for the winner: to answer a "skill testing question" entail? |

If your entry is chosen as one of the winners, then you have to answer the question.

As much as I suggested to the BioWare legal team that we should make it flaming-chainsaw juggling, they went with the standard algebra type question.
Here's the Wikipedia entry on the skill-testing question. It's a Canadian thing, probably invented so you'd feel good about passing high school math and prevent people like me from ever winning prizes.

That was just a wound Priestly got from demonstrating the juggling of flaming chainsaws. It'll heal...somewhat. I don't think he can grow back those parts that were chopped completely off.
Let this be a warning. Kids, don't juggle flaming chainsaws at home. Look what happened to Chris! (sorry, I had to edit out the link to the pictures; they are too horrible to view)
