[contest] 12,345 Count Up Countdown! [Contest Over! Winners Announced!]

[Mark]

Hehe.

Don't worry, I didn't bet in this game. Did I make anyone win (I didn't read the thread before registering either)?

Oh, I see... You retired a name at the "less-than-ten-percent-of-a-me" mark...

Well, yes. Someone has won the big prize, but everyone who played wins something. All I need is for everyone to check in on this thread here...

...on my boards to verify their participation.

The biggest winners appear to be (feel free to check my math)-

Congrats to the winners!

My shame over putting in the wrong month for my guess is lessened some, as I wouldn't have won anyway! (not even close in fact )

 

[pensiv]

wow, I was almost exactly 24 hours off.

 

[John Crichton]

Wow, I was way off which is cool with me.

Hats off to Ferret, Dungannon & arwink!

Congrats to all. I was 10 days off, I imagine almost exactly to the minute! So, what's in store for those of us who merely participated? Better yet, what are the "big" winners gonna get? Drooling and envy are fun once in a while!

From the first post...

What can you win? The person guessing closest to the date and time when that boards turn over to the number 12,345 will win $25.00 worth of current or future CMG PDF products!

Just one winner? Nope. Additionally, two other lucky contestants who are the second and third closest to the date and time when the boards turn over to the number 12,345 registered members will receive $20.00 worth of CMG PDF products or $15.00 worth of CMG PDF products respectively.

But there is a catch. To be eligible to win a prize you must also move the mountain. How do you move the mountain? Easy! Just go to my new message board, register there (using either your same screenname as here, or adding some telling text in your sig on my board to make sure we can know it is also you). And, if you can please take the time, help me to break them in by posting in some semi-constructive way, shape or form, please do.

As per my normal operating procedure you can be sure that everyone who participates will receive some sort of prize, but what the consolation prize might be I do not even know at this time. I have a couple of new generator ideas in the mix, or may have some other DMing or Player type goodie, but rest assured there will be something for everyone!

Still putting some final touches on the consolation prize but I think you'll like it...

Glad to see a lot of you checking in here and on my boards. I've changed the thread title to make sure everyone knows we've hit the big 12,345 mark!

 

[Mark]

Gotta check in on my boards and drop me an Email so I can dole out the prizey-goodness... (I need to double check for functioning Emails in that manner). Thanks!

 

[Dungannon]

Okay, I'm checking in on both boards, Mark. You should have an e-mail with my info, too. Thanks again for the contest, it was fun.
