The Chat Game!
- The object of the game is to collect "signatures" from the "regulars" in the FT Live Chat room.
- The game will begin at 12am Eastern Daylight Time on September 8, 2001, and conclude at 12:01AM Eastern Daylight Time on October 6, 2001.
- For the purposes of this game, there will be ten (10) regulars that will offer signatures for the game. Their names are listed below.
- In order to be eligible for a prize, you must obtain the signature (which will really be a fact about that person) of each of the ten regular members.
- In order to obtain the "signatures" of the regulars, you must enter the chat room and actively participate in the discussion for a little while. It is up to you to ask each regular for their signature, and up to each regular to provide it when they feel that you have been in the chat for a while.
- You may (and probably will) have to visit a few times to obtain all the required "signatures."
- When you have obtained all ten signatures, you must list them in an email, and email them, along with your full name and FT Handle to mailto:[email protected][email protected]</A>. This email must arrive by 12:00 noon Eastern Daylight Time on October 7, 2001..
- If no one is able to obtain all the required signatures, then all entrants with the most signatures will be entered into the drawing.
- All entrants with all ten correct entries will be entered into a random drawing for a Genuine, Original, Old Gold Custom Sootkase Tag. For an example, please see http://www.markbach.com/stuff/tag.png . Additional prizes may be added at a later date, if I obtain additional sponsorship.
- Old Gold has specified that the winner MUST pick up his or her prize at a meeting of the S.T.I.F.F.S. You'll have to ask Old Gold for details
- All registered Flyertalk members as of September 5, 2001 are eligible, with the exception of the ten regulars.
- Please email mailto:[email protected][email protected]</A> for any questions, comments, or rules clarifications.

markback,
I'm insulted! How on earth do you have the nerve to say that I'm a 'regular' flyertalker?
I'm ir-regular.
By the way, I'll be happy to send some cool keychains to the 2nd place winner. But I too have a stipulation: the winner has to buy me a steak dinner in NYC. (just kidding about dinner).

Spent several hours on chat so far this evening. Perhaps I'll get to pick up my keys in PBI at the end of the month...

It appears I was on the original list to be one of the ten, I was out of town on vacation and unable to reply.
While I am not able to be one of the ten, I am still happy to offer up two 500 mile Alaska certificates to be given to two individuals.

I am going to amend the rules at this point...
Due to everyone's generosity, we have an abundence of prizes. However, in the interest of fairness, anyone who donates a prize is also ineligable to participate.
P.S.: Sorry, Tolarian Wind, I never heard back from you, so I couldn't include you. If this is sucessful, I hope there will be a round 2 sometime, and I'll be happy to include you then.

Don't worry about B747. He doesn't have my stamp yet. How did he "dupe" you into giving him yours? [ If it's a good story, I won't give him mine till you give me the OK. ]

Changing the rules after the contest started? For shame...
