The OFFICIAL "TODAY WAS A GOOD DAY Giveaway Contest" **RULES & INFORMATION**

Hi :)
I'm still relatively new around here, but I'm running a contest... And it's open to ALL BLADEFORUMS.com MEMBERS (except me). :D

Here's how it works:

I'm giving up on my raffle contest for charity idea. Can't seem to get it running where it would do the most good, which would've been here... BUT... I BEG each and every one of you to give to your favorite charitable organization(s) this Holiday season until ya feel the squeeze. Think of all of those who are out there hungry, lonely, cold, scared, away from home, (especially in the service of our home nations), or otherwise suffering during the holiday season. Think about how a few toys, blankets, jackets, cans of food, CASH, clothing, KNIVES, etc. donated from all of us could make so many others happier and safer.

So... In an effort to SPARK some kindness towards others in a 'pay it forward' sort of fashion, I will instead GIVE away the following prizes in a standard lottery style drawing to be determined by the OHIO STATE LOTTERY ( www.ohiolottery.com ) "PICK 4" EVENING DRAWING ON SATURDAY, DECEMBER 2nd., 2006:

Grand prize: One (1) New, unused Busse 'Skeleton Game Warden' Knife, Choice of HogTag & Lanyard, free insured shipping INCLUDING TO international locations.
2nd Prize: Choice of 2 HogTags & 2 lanyards, free shipping
3rd Prize: Choice of 1 HogTag & 1 Lanyard, free shipping
4th Prize: Choice of 1 HogTag OR 1 Lanyard, free shipping
5th Prize: Choice of lanyard, free shipping

I will open a new thread in the Busse Combat Forum on Friday, November 24th, 2006 entitled, "TODAY WAS A GOOD DAY Giveaway Contest ENTRY THREAD", at some point in the evening after 6:00pm Eastern Standard Time.
To ENTER, POST on the contest thread (NOT this rules & info thread. ALL numbers posted here will not be eligible unless you post them on the CONTEST ENTRY thread.) with your chosen contest entry number. YOUR INDIVIDUAL CONTEST ENTRY NUMBER MUST BE POSTED ON THE OFFICIAL CONTEST ENTRY THREAD BY NO LATER THAN 11:59PM Eastern Standard Time, FRIDAY, DECEMBER 1st., 2006. ONLY POSTS WITH ONE CHOSEN NUMBER PER BladeForums.com MEMBER FROM '0001' through '9999' WILL BE ELIGIBLE for this GIVEAWAY contest. THE ONLY ACCEPTABLE NUMERICAL FORMAT For ENTRY IS: "****". FOR EXAMPLE if you choose ONE HUNDRED TWENTY-THREE as your entry number, IT MUST BE POSTED AS "0123". (Without the quotation marks is acceptable and valid.) NO PURCHASE REQUIRED. MULTIPLE POSTS W/ CHOSEN NUMBERS WILL IMMEDIATELY DISQUALIFY YOU, EVEN if I find out AFTER the contest is over AND ALL WINNERS have already BEEN ANNOUNCED. (In the event of a disqualification, the next runner-up will advance one position, and those ranking behind this next runner-up will all advance one position until all prizes have been awarded.) Ya wanna post on the contest thread more than once? Make sure only one post has a number in it. THE 5 EARLIEST ENTERED POSTS CONTAINING THE WINNING NUMBER, and/or THE CLOSEST NUMBER(S) TO THE WINNING NUMBER GETS THE HIGHEST AVAILABLE PRIZE. WINNERS will be determined by CLOSEST NUMBER FIRST, EARLIEST TIMESTAMP SECOND. ONE prize per winning BF.com member only. I will not be liable for lost or misdirected packages, BUT I WILL HELP IN EVERY WAY I CAN TO RECOVER IT. This contest is open to all BladeForums.com members EXCEPT ME. :D

Geeez... just gettin some practice in... after all I only get one number! :D

Foo... I WANTED to run it like cstorr2004's contest, but I didn't think that Spark(H.P.I.C.) would find it funny if I were to crash his website giving away Busse! Heck I jones'd for a week last time it wuz down more than a day!! :D So I kept it... Civilized, and with a nice long entry period for those away during the T-day weekend.
:cool:
 
When do I win?

Guyon, Guyon, Guyon... where WERE ya last night? Ok, listen... I'm gonna make it my mission to find you a satin smoggie. They seem to be attracted to me and I've completed my sets. so the VERY NEXT ONE & I'm putting your name on it. :) Cool? OH! ...And IF you win, LOL you'll know Sat. Dec. 2nd.!
:cool:
 
"...Two in the morning got the fat burger
Even saw the lights of the goodyear blimp
And it read i_skunk's a pimp... :thumbup: :D
Drunk as h*** but no throwing up,
Half way home and my pager still blowing up.
Today I didnt even have to use my AK,
I got to say it was a good day..."

Ice Cube (mostly, LOL)
 
Question: Does anyone know when the evening drawing is for Ohio's lottery? Is it 7pm like here in PA? Can't seem to find this on the site & my eyes are crossed from reading typeset all night. :)

I'll be there. And I'll tell my friends.

Who knows, maybe I'll find some more Gold Members for the Forum.

Happy Holidays -- the season for giving.
 
Just to be clear on this number:

If the Ohio pick four winning numbers are 4,3,3,7

Then the winning number here would be 4337.

Is that right?

So really I have to post a number with four digits like 0235 rather than just 235.

YES, THAT is RIGHT. JUST like how'd you see it on a lottery ticket, i.e. "0001". I'll try to clear up the point, and THANKS for pointing this out. :)

EDITED TO ADD: Hey, please reread the rules and let me know if it's tight and easy to understand. I fixed the numerical format thing. :)
