== Why Not? ==
So I had this song stuck in my head for the last few days and it occurred to me I could make a game out of this in the spirit of [[User:Brightstar_Shiner#Some_Quotes|Brightstar's quote thing]].  Sort of. 

=== Contest #1 ===
Guess what the title of the song is and you get standard-issue game-winning cupcakes.  You get special-issue extra-credit cupcakes if you guess who the original singer/band was.  This song has been around for a while but has been covered a few times. Without further ado, the hint:

*The Law - 1
*Me - 0

That's it! That's all you get. Leave your guesses in my [[User_talk:Stux|talk page]] and I'll tell you if you're right or not. I'm guessing those who've been around a while might get it right away but we'll see! I intend to leave this up indefinitely, and don't yet plan for other similar "contests".  Good luck! 

'''Update:''' The honor of {{pl|l=http://www.hrwiki.org/index.php?title=User_talk:Stux&diff=409849&oldid=409839 solving}} this riddle goes to [[User:Tom|Tom]]!!!
=== Contest #2 ===
Okay, so that last one went by quick, and I've wanted to make another, hopefully harder, clue.  The clues are meant to be Google-proof, so feel free to use it. This one is for a movie, and as a result I will be extremely vague (the clues are hints for the hints themselves). As customary, to the victor goes the cupcakes.  Special cupcakes if you can identify the scene or scenes the clues refer to.  So here they are (two words):

*{{pl|l=http://directory.fsf.org/ directory.fsf.org}} - the bird, not the software.
*Long before Alka-seltzer, there was this. <small>''Subhint:'' See my wikipedia edit history.</small>

That's it! That's all you get. Leave your guesses (full or intermediate) in my [[User_talk:Stux|talk page]] and I'll tell you if you're right or not. I made a batch of cupcakes and every time I add a hint I eat one myself... yummmm! Good luck!
<br /><br />
'''Update:''' Congratulations to [[User:Trey56|Trey56]] on {{pl|l=http://www.hrwiki.org/index.php?title=User_talk:Stux&diff=434175&oldid=434172 solving}} the second puzzle! 
----
=== <!-- ooops! --> Contest #3 ===

So girls and boys, it's time for yet another weird contest.  Here's the clue:

:What is your Name?
:What is your Quest?
:What is the 44th Mersenne Prime?

Now for the contest.  As always I try to make my contests un-guessable, and I have tried to take this to new heights.  This contest is meant to be {{pl|l=http://www.google.com/ google}} proof, so google, ask, cheat away!  The rules are simple: there are four questions that I have chosen to be associated with this clue.  You must provide all 4 questions (not all at once) along with their respective answers.  I have made a batch of 9 cupcakes, one for each question, one for each answer and an "overall performace" cupcake for kicks. No, I'm not playing [[Wikipedia:Sudoku|Sudoku]] with the cupcakes. For every correct question you get a cupcake, for every correct answer, you get another.  As time progresses, unquestioned questions and unanswered questions will get a hint. For every hint, I eat a cupcake. Good luck!

'''Hint #1:'''<br/>
Well, since this contest has had no brave takes, it's time for a (rather vague) hint. But first, I have a cupcake to eat. Yum! 8 cucpakes left! So anyway, here's the hint:
*[[Comic Sightings|Category:Real World References]]
As I said before don't be afraid to guess or ask questions. <br/>
'''Solutions: '''<br/>
:'''Question #1:''' ''What non-H*R character would have posed this set of questions?''
::'''A:''' ''"the old man from Scene 24" in [[Wikipedia:Monty Python and the Holy Grail|Monty Python and the Holy Grail]]'' <small>([[User_talk:Stux#Monty_Python_Reference|solved]] by [[User:Kevin G. Dannerson|Kevin G. Dannerson]])</small>
:'''Question #2:''' ''The story behind the previous question resembles a specific H*R toon the most. What item was sought after in this toon?''
::'''A:''' ''[[The Yello Dello]] from [[In Search of the Yello Dello]]'' <small>(Note: I must admit this would've been rather subjective.)</small>
:'''Question #3:''' ''What ''is'' the 44th [[Wikipedia:Mersenne Prime|Mersenne Prime]]?''
::'''A:'''  2<sup>32,582,657</sup> - 1<sup>*</sup>.  <small>([[User_talk:Stux#Monty_Python_Reference|solved]] by [[User:Kevin G. Dannerson|Kevin G. Dannerson]])</small>
:'''Question #4:''' ''What bible passage most resembles this set of questions?''
::'''A:''' ''[[Wikipedia:Daniel|Daniel's]] interpretation of [[Wikipedia:Nebuchadrezzar II|Nebuchadnezzar's]] dream.'' <small>(Okay, so I can't expect everyone to be mind readers or prophets.)</small>
