We can now announce the winners of last months ERB Quiz!

The overall winner with a fantastic and unequalled score of 12 is... JokerRose! She is actually a Director tier level patron so she scoops both main prizes - the iron bar from the Joker vs Pennywise battle and the orc mask from the Tolkien vs Martin battle. We know you were super keen to win the iron bar cos you're a big Joker fan. So, well done you! 

But, we also have a random winner who walks away with a free ERB t-shirt, pin badge and wristband and this month that lucky winner is... Muzza (you might have only scored 7 but for the random merch prize your score doesn't matter. Well done sir!)

Quick shout out to some of you scored high but just missed out... Dante Walton, Gilmer10, Polar Princessa, Tzyt, Erik Bell, MozartJr & BTTF all scored 11. And Kodi Robinson, Cullen Cole, Newjersysuccesstory, SmashGrrl, TulipKing & CooperTaunt all scored 10.

Commiserations to everyone who didn't win a prize. Better luck next time! We'll have a new quiz for you later this month with more ace prizes.

A) Turtle - although we accepted the answer "Tortoise" too. [Turtles "stay in their house all day" because of their shell which acts as their shield against other predators. Turtles often spend most of their lives in water. But they do lay their eggs in the sand on beaches etc. They can be found on every continent apart from Antarctica. The well known animated comic series Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles involved turtles with martial arts skills. Turtles can lay 100+ eggs at a time but once a nest is completed, the female never returns to it. The eggs and resulting hatch-lings are left to fend for themselves. Some species of turtle can live for over 100 years. Turtles have a slow metabolism, are herbivores so don't hunt their prey and have a shell for protection so they don't have to move very fast]

This is the best thing ever. I am super stoked!! When I first read this I let out such a gleeful squeal! I am fangirling so hard right now, you guys have no idea. My cheeks hurt from smiling. I needed this boost of joy. I was having a bummer of a couple of days (broke up with my boyfriend, got nail polish on my brand new sundress, skinned my knee, broke a glass, I mean ... you name it). I was having myself a good pout and said "I'm so sad. The only thing that could make me feel better is if I won that Joker bar." (kid you not) And low and behold... the next time I show up in here and BOOM I did win!! Not just won, but triumphed! Hot diggety dog. I am so happy! I REALLY wanted that Joker bar. Like, more than I have wanted anything in a long time. It's not just that I am a fan of The Joker character, it is that it was THAT video that introduced me to ERB. IT has been my favorite book since I was 12 years old. I still have my well read copy and treasure it. The Joker was my favorite character in me and my buddy's action figure town. We played it for years. From like age 12 to like... you know, 20. LOL The Joker was my main character. He was animated series Joker, so naturally he had the Mark Hamill voice, but he had the comic book Joker's demeanor and dark side. So when I saw Nice Peter KILL IT as a beautiful mix of Mark Hamill's voice with the comic book look, I blissed out. And he was battling Pennywise?! Ohmygod. I must have watched it a dozen times that night. Epic Lloyd was hella creepy as Pennywise and nailed the character almost too well. I mean, with the makeup... he WAD frickin' Pennywise. And Nice Peter is hands down the most perfect live-action Joker there has ever been. I mean... I can't even. The hair, the makeup, the voice, the gestures and body language... I mean.. It makes me crazy I love it so much. Oh, and one of my favorite Joker scenes in the comics was him beating Robin to death with that iron bar. So I laughed so freakin' hard when I watched the rap battle hahaha "Ask Robin if I drop bars.." HAHAHAHA... And now that bar is mine. MINE!! Excellent. That quiz was hard btw. I was not expecting it to be puzzles. I loved it though. Very fun. I can't believe I won both prizes. That's wild! The orc mask will also be treasured. That thing is BAD ASS. You can imagine my delight when I realized that there were MORE of these epic rap battles. I was overjoyed and had a great time checking them all out and making a playlist with my favs. I even watched some reaction videos and all of those analysis videos that kid who likes the pokemans makes. When I decide to invest in something, it is because I love it and because it thrills me to research it. I think that the videos are comedic gold and sensational masterpieces. I am overjoyed to be the winner of the bar and the mask. I am simply giddy with excitement. THANK YOU
