Hey friends,

I know we’re all in holiday mode already, so today’s email is short. And you could win some prizes!

The Year 2049 Championship
– 2nd Edition

Last year, I ran the first-ever Year 2049 championship quiz which was won by Amanda.

Will we get a new champion this year?

We’ve quadrupled in size since we had the first quiz so the competition is more intense now.

And the prizes are better this time:

1st place: Mini Trophy + “i’m from the future” hat + $50 gift card
2nd place: “i’m from the future” hat + $25 gift card
3rd place: “i’m from the future” hat + $10 gift card

This is what the hat looks like:

All you need to do is get the highest score on a 15-question quiz. If there’s a tie, winners will be determined by the fastest time to complete*.

*To avoid people doing research to get a perfect score, any quizzes that take more than 5 minutes to complete will be eliminated. That should give you 20 seconds per question.

I’ll update the leaderboard regularly over the next few weeks and I’ll announce the winner in the next email, on January 13. I’ve made a public leaderboard that you can check:

Reflecting on 2022

Year 2049 recently hit 1,000 subscribers and I wanted to thank you all for being among the first people who subscribed. Writing the newsletter takes a lot of effort and energy on top of a full-time job, but you all make it worthwhile.

I’m beyond excited for 2023. I have so many fascinating topics, innovations, and companies to talk about and I can’t wait to share them with you.

If you have 3 minutes to spare, your thoughts and feedback can help a lot:

Thank you for being an OG supporter.

Much love,
