Concert contest

Post by PhutureMD »

Haven't seen this posted yet, Sirius is holding a contest to go see Jimmy in the Islands. Link can be found on the RM website. If I don't win, I hope it is one of you. Sounds like a BN'ers dream come true! Good luck all.


If this post duplicates any other, I apologize :oops:

Peace :D

Thanks for the heads up, MD. I see where they're anticipating 3,000 entries and it's a random draw vs. actual essay contest.... Oh, and take note that the "vote early and often" approach will get you disqualified.

Good luck everyone! :D

If the winner is to be decided by random drawing, why have the essay portion at all [smilie=huh-ani.gif]

I wondered that too and then figured that'll give the Sirius folks something to read and tell more of a story about the winner.

I tried at 11:30 CST and it isn't working. I get an error in the essay field, even though I had already filled it out. Maybe they will fix this soon... :roll:

if you hear back or anything hears something, let us know... I tried last night but got that error message as well... There's no indication of a character limit, so I wonder what the problem is....

Hmmm....

I had trouble also. But then I backed out, went back in,
and this time it worked. All I can say is try again. :pirate:
