Bonus to end all bonuses.  This is the last one like this for the year.  I will make the bonus points significant but the penalty will be more severe.  This will not help you take over the lead in the game, but if you are successful, you could have a nice jump.  But it will come at a huge price if you go for it.  I'll make the questions fair but challenging.  Keep in mind I have never offered this kind of bonus in any year of the game.  It's an experiment.  Good luck to anyone who goes for it.
