Contest

[golfgar]

I am approaching the 2000th post and thought that in keeping with some traditions around here I would have a contest. Not too much different than the regular contest except since I am only a few posts away I would change from the normal date and time contest to just the time. That's right, more of a raffle than a calculation.

Here are the rules:

Pick a time.

Send an e-mail via the CP email function.

I will post the winner on this thread and request mailing addy at that time.

Two guesses per member

Use 24 hour time....for instance use 13:00 not 1:00 pm

Closest time gets the prize. (haven't figured out what it will be exactly yet but there will be cigars and I have some other ideas too)

My email address has been changed to one that is rarely used and I will not look at the emails until after the 2000th post. If you don't consume alchohol please put NA on the email oherwise it will be assumed that you do.


PS No guesses will be accepted that are made after post number 1995.

Took a hell-of-a-long time to get to post 2000. So I went to look at the emails to see who might be closest. To my chagrin the emails have disappeared (I suppose they aged out) and I am at a loss about how to distribute the prize. The original post was in October of 2007, it is now June 2008.

I would still like to give out a prize, so I suppose if anyone has a copy of the email they sent and can forward it that would be step 1. If no one has retained a copy then I will figure out what to do for solution #2.

Sorry about this, I suppose I could have let it silently die but a contest, is, after all is a contest and "by-golly" there will be a prize awarded to someone for something.

Ya do that, another 2 years will certainly ramp up the suspense and excitement.
