If you missed the tipspromenad at New Sweden's Midsommar celebration this year but wish you hadn't, here's a pdf of the questions and here is the answer key. This year's winner answered 8 questions correctly.

Tipspromenad (also called tipsrunda or poängpromenad) is a competition where one walks a predetermined path at their own pace in order to answer visibly placed questions (usually twelve in number) equipped with an answer sheet and a pen(cil). For each question, there are three answer choices marked with “1”, “X” and “2”. On the answer sheet, which consists of a table with three empty cells for each question (“1”, “X”, “2”), the participant answers each question by marking the answer choice that they believe or know to be correct. The organizer or some other non-competing person counts the total correct responses for each participant. The person with the most correct answers wins. Sometimes the competition concludes with a knock-out or sudden-death question, a pure guessing question without answer choices, in order to declare a single winner when two or more participants have the same number of correct responses.
