Ah well, looks like I've finished 3rd. Though couldn't have gotten that far without you guys sharing answers, and those barcodes :) I believe 1 of our members will be announcing their win next week :)
Gotta say, very well organised comp with very little chance of cheating :) Huge list of possible questions, answers to which are all over the place. And requires Facebook login, which cuts down people using multiple accounts etc.
