10000th POST SPECTACULAR CONTEST
« on: 22 Apr 2008, 12:32 »

Alright, so I frankly don't have all the groundwork prepped for this one but I actually want to post again and stuff so I'm just going to get this out there. Basically, consider this post a "WATCH THIS SPACE" alert.

In celebration of a somewhat arbitrary counter rolling over to a number that I have already technically passed, I'm having an Official Johnny C Contest To Be Totally Awesome And Win Some Shit. There will be two stages.

  • Stage 1 is the You Don't Know John! Trivia Contest. I am going to scour basically my entire life on this forum and come up with a bunch of stumpers for you cocksuckers to take a wild guess at. Start reading posts now because I want to have this up in about two weeks. A sample question is below:

    Quote
    Johnny C predicted that three artists would be severely underrated in QC's Top 25 of 2006. Who were they?

    Most definitely become acquainted with the search function. You will need it to survive.


  • Stage 2 is the Taskathalon. I will be devising about twenty different tasks for you to complete, each of which will be worth a different number of points. Here is a five-pointer to start you off, though I don't want to see any results until this stage is officially announced.

    Quote
    The Johnny C Fanclub is expanding. Please design the official membership card. You may use any medium you wish. Five Points.

To tantalize you further, the contents of the fabulous prize package currently include:

  • one (1) hand-painted These Estates t-shirt! I had to make one for a class and now I own it and it's tacky to wear your own band's shirt, so I don't. I'm getting this scanned for future printing but I am going to mail the original to the winner of this contest. It's actually just one of my old shirts and I am a husky gentleman so this may or may not fit you, but hopefully it'd still be something you'll like to have.
  • one (1) custom mix CD! I will not make the CD until the contest is over, and it will be personally tailored to the victor.
  • one (1) bag of Old Dutch Creamy Dill Rip-L Chips! God damn are these tasty.
  • one (1) thank-you in the liner notes of These Estates' debut EP, I Can't Wait! It's my band, I can do whatever the hell I want. And yeah, the exclamation mark is part of the title.
  • one (1) online purchase on your behalf, max. $25! Want to buy a t-shirt from Jeph? Want to donate $25 to Achewood? Want to get a sweet wallet from Poketo? Pick something and I'll buy it! Yeah!
  • some maple syrup! I love this shit!
  • something from the RCMP Depot store! My pop works at the RCMP, but here the RCMP division is also the home of the training academy. As a result there are some pretty sweet RCMP duds at the Depot store. I will buy you some.
There are some rules.

  • No Googling answers for the trivia contest. I can't verify this but I have to trust you to not do it. Google knows everything and therefore it would become piss-easy to win if you can Google well. Since I am mailing something out to you and footing the entire bill I would really appreciate some honesty in this regard.
  • No extensions, unless I extend it. This is entirely contingent on my schedule, unfortunately. The good news is that I have a fairly empty month ahead and I'll be able to fill it nicely with poring over entries.
  • I am disqualifying the entire Class of '04, all moderators, and KharBevNor. Sorry guys, you can probably do the trivia bit in about ten minutes. However, I would really appreciate your help in pulling this whole thing off. PM me if you're interested.

Okay! Let that brew, motherfuckers!

For my whole life, I was under the impression that maple syrup was a Vermont thing, not Canadian.

I had a Maths teacher from Montreal who loved the stuff. Her love for the stuff was probably due to only being able to buy maple-flavoured syrup which tastes nothing like it. If you do manage to find a store selling maple syrup in australia be prepared to pay through the nose.

Johnny, you did not clearly define if competitors had to do both stages. (Or maybe you did and I misunderstood. Either way, clarification would be nice.)

Well, theoretically I guess you could just do one, but your chances of winning will be slim. Points will be accumulated across both, and I'm planning on balancing them out equally so that the winner will have to do both. Community and stuff.

Are you serious?  $5 for a decent sized bottle of 100% Canadian maple syrup is not a bad price.  That is what we sell it for.  I know.  I order it!

Also, Johnny, you are so epic, I think I love you.

I am disqualifying the entire Class of '04, all moderators, and KharBevNor.

Ok, let's see here:  Joined in '03, so that first point's fine.  Admin, not mod, so I guess I pass there.  I am pretty sure I am not Khar so I guess I'm in the clear on that point too.

Ok Johnny, I am totally down for this.
