Egg-celent Quiz (English)
by

A cracking Quiz about eggs, great self-made media which compliments (and in some cases is part of) the questions. Unfortunately, lots of language issues prevented the Quiz from reaching a higher tier, but the quality of other factors (and the puns) made it worthy of a prize.
🥇

English version)
