Re: NEW CONTEST..STARTS FEB. 22..DETAILS

I'm glad everyone had fun playing. The turnout wasn't very good. There were 5 total. I wish there had been more participation, but seeing the enjoyment everyone had and the many emails I received I'm glad we did it.

Re: NEW CONTEST..STARTS FEB. 22..DETAILS

5 only ? Really astonishing...

But, people who did not have the all right answers probably hesitated to post at the end...

Just hope the next contest will draw more Members...

Cheers.

Re: NEW CONTEST..STARTS FEB. 22..DETAILS

And just a suggestion for next time: don't close the contest on a weekend, it happens that people go away. After posting the last question, give a few days before closing the contest so that all those that would like to participate can actually do it.

Just my 1.5 kopeck

Re: NEW CONTEST..STARTS FEB. 22..DETAILS

Many thanks to Brendan for the excellent prize. It is very much appreciated! (I have a sneaking suspicion that Art knows about your act of generosity )

I too am a bit surprised that only 5 members participated. As I mentioned earlier, I think the scanvenger hunt theme was a pretty good way to spend some time on the forum. Especially since I read alot of threads I'd never browsed through before.

Well, let me add my thanks to Art and Brendan for setting it up. It was fun and hopefully next time others will enjoy taking part (especially since we five lucky guys walked away with a new piece for our collections ).

- Sean
