Ok.. winter is here... work, eat, sleep.. watch a little TV... go out with friends once in a while... I'm bored already.. Soooo... what better way to liven up the place, than to have a new contest. :beer Here are the specifics... Question is... How many members will this site have, as of 12:01 am CST January 1, 2003 ? Looking for an exact number here.. Prizes are: First place... choice of TSP polishing service on an aluminum intake manifold ($125.00 value) or... re-plating service on a Power Brake booster ($150.00 value) or.... $100 credit toward any other TSP Product or Service. Second Place.... Re-Plated 70-72 GS Radio Bezel,($75.00 value) or.. TSP Thru the frame trans line kit($80.00 value).. or.. $50 credit for any TSP Product or Service. Third Place.... Free 1 year membership to the BPG, with all the current year back issues. If a current BPG member wins this, then it would make a great "new year" gift for a friend, or it can be used to re-up your current membership. ($35.00 value) Rules... Exact member count as of the date and time specified. 2nd place is defined as the guess closest to the actual number (over or under) In the event that no one quesses the correct number, the first place prize will be given to the closest guess UNDER the actual number, second and third will follow suit. In the event that there is a guess 1 over and 1 under, then third place will be the guess that is 1 over the actual number. Otherwise third place will be the closest guess Under the actual number. Winners are responsible for all shipping charges and applicable sales tax, if MN resident. No duplication allowed... only 1 guess with 1 number of members per unique user. The first user to call out a guess, gets that member count.. ie.. if I guess 1739, then everyone else has to guess a different number. You have 30 minutes, after your inital post, to edit your guess, up to the cutoff time. Big brother is watching. :Brow: Let's keep this "straight up" folks.. I don't anticipate a problem.. you guys are the greatest! Guessing ends at 12:01 AM CST, December 15, 2002. IT's been a GREAT inaugural year with V8 Buick.com. And with the sucessful founding of the BPG, and the growth and continued sucess at Tri-Shield, I can't think of a better way to "give back" than to have a fun contest like this! Thanks folks, I definately count this year to be one of the best years of my not so young life. It's been a blast! Current member count as I write this is 1738. Waiting until the 15th could cost you your prefered number... So don't wait! Contest is now set, closed for new guesses Guesses that we have already surpassed are in red. 17's ----- 1753 1754 1757 1759 1760 1762 1768 1769 1770 1772 1774 1775 1776 1779 1780 1781 1784 1788 1789 1790 1791 1792 1793 1795 1798 1799 18's --------- 1800 1801 1803 1805 1806 1808 1810 1811 1812 1813 1814 1815 1818 1820 1823 1827 1829 1830 1831 1833 1835 1837 1840 1841 1842 1843 1844 1845 1846 1847 1848 1849 1850 1851 1852 1853 1855-2nd Place 1857-1st place Member count Number was 1858.. no one quessed that. 1859-3rd Place 1860 1861 1863 1865 1866 1872 1873 1879 1888 1893 1899 19's ----------- 1901 1903 1910 1911 1913 1919 1937 1953 1956 1959 1965 1968 1969 1970 1972 1981 1983 1985 20's --------- 2000 2003 and 1500... always one joker in the crowd..:laugh:
My wife's guess is 1835 Can I have a guess too!?? I know Im letting her number stand if she can win for me thats ok anyway. If she wins I win !!:beer :laugh: :TU:
Sure Mike, if your wife signs up.. and posts her guess under her user name... max is 2 users per household, and there are a number of multi-user housholds now.
Big hint... Ok gang, Just to spice it up a bit... I will give you a big hint, historically speaking.. We have had 72 registations since December 1..wow.. even I did not realize how fast we are growing now.. 72 in 11 days... just over 6 a day... my admin panel lists new registrations at 30 users per page, and I was shocked to have to go back 3 pages.. wow.. who'd a thunk it? I will allow those who have guessed previous to this post, to revise your guess, up until 5 pm CST, Thursday Dec 12. Just 'cause it make it more fun.. and I want everyone to be playing on the same field here...:TU: :beer JW
Since Gary picked the same # I had, can I change mine? If so, I'll pick 1865 jw edit.. Yes Scott, I have edited your first post to show your new guess
