OK guys and gals, a quick bump.
CONTEST ENDS TODAY, SO GET YOUR ENTRIES IN NOW. I'm a little dissappointed that onl 7 people entered... maybe I'll just give them a prize each! Come 'on everyone, I was hoping to have regular give-aways of goodies... .

Why would the CEO of Rolex want a Rolex shirt and hat? You run the company!!!
Just another greedy company executive!

Who would have figured it would be so hard to give stuff away free?
I should sell this stuff on Ebay next time, pocket approx $150 + postage!!!

When is the next Rolex price increase? When they decide it's time, which means, just before you buy your next watch
Which Rolex will skyrocket in value next week? The one being worn by the astronaut entering outer space in a sky rocket next week. Which Rolex should I/you/somebody/anybody buy? The one that makes you smile and makes you feel like it was Christmas when you were 6 years old. What do the initials JJ stand for? James Jonajason (alias Spiderman) just look at his hairy arms like a tarantula Who uses the most bandwidth? (a) JJ - number of posts or (b) Jocke - lots of big pics??? Probably JJ as Jocke photoshops his photos down to a nice web-compatible size. How many Tossers are there on TRF? Quite a few, but I might not be excluded from that contingent given my answers above.

What was the question Richard? Why the head-scratch?
BTW, what time in your part of the world? Over here, appears the contest is over!!! Only 7 genuine replies! If there were only 6 entries, I could use some dice, and just allocate the entries a number 1 through 6 as they came in!!! But there are 7 entries.... Guess I'll have to read each one now and judge each one on it's merits... I suppose the good the good thing is the odds are pretty good for those few who bothered to enter... I have more stuff to give away, including a mens polo top and another cap, plus some DVD'd, books etc I was thinking of giving away, but don 't think I'll bother... seems people aren't too keen on freebies.

I would have entered, but I didn't know the answer to some of the questions. I think if you would like to have a contest, then maybe a photo contest or some other type of contest where it isn't a quiz.
Many of the members I know are not WIS.......I am certainly not.... Ask me any question you would like about Corvettes or Vipers and I can answer...but who uses more bandwidth between JJ and Jocke...I have not a clue, but they are both funny. It seems you are frustrated that you did not get more responses...but many of us non WIS people just couldn't answer because we didn't know.... So chill and if you give away a shirt and a cap, great, thanks, very generous, but don't get frustrated because the non WIS people didn't participate. |

Was just wondering what the status was. My wife wants that shirt and cap! Richard Ps. Don't be to discouraged by what was seemingly a lack of interest. I think you'll find if you put up the man's shirt there would be a lot more entries.

thanks for the feedback. Yes, I think you're right, next time I'll make it pics or similar. To be honest, my intention was that the questions were meant to be funny, as there are no correct answers, so any aswers would have been fine (guess my sense of humor is a little oblique) I also wanted to make it open to those without easy access to a camera or anyone who does not have aptitude with a camera... Any, as I said, feedback much appreciated, I'll keep it in mind for next time...

Kia ora John,
I think it's an awesome gesture you're making. Next time I'll try and answer. I wasn't sure of the answers either, but I enjoyed reading others ideas. Thanks again.
