Yes, I think that is the way we are going to go. It is very easy for me to run and will be a fair contest to all. I've really been trying hard to come up with contests that are fair. I thought the hat contest would be, but it was not as fair to those who had slower internet or busy schedules. I really thought the mad libs would be fair, but little did I know we had some ringers in our midst!
I haven't worked out all the details yet, but this is what I had in mind. Mind you these are not the official rules, I am actually thinking it out while I type.
I will start a new thread and it will be called "Sneaky Pete + Phiniac tank Contest" (I will post a link to it in this thread)
The conversation will start off using BluSwatch's wonderful suggestion "Where would you Sneak Your Pete To and Why" so at least the first person who posts has to post an answer to that question, if others would like to answer it at any time that is cool. But ALL other posts must go with the flow of the conversation we are having. So for example if the first person posts the following:
I would sneak my sneaky pete to disney world, this way I can sneak a few vapes while waiting on the long line for all the rides.
The next post can either be where that person would sneak their pete to or a discussion about disney world, the long rides, the last time you were there etc.
But a post in response that says "bumping so I can win" will disqualify that post number.
I will be the judge of who is following the flow of the discussion or not. And we will see where the conversation takes us!
Basically we are going to chit chat, the topic can change but has to go with the flow!
Then when I am ready to get the new products on line, I will anounce the end of the conversation and put the posts into a random generator. If the winner is a post I made (or someone else who is not eligable which is basically just chief) I will try again. Same if the winner is a disqualified post.
So basically we are going to do exactly what we are doing here... Chit Chat!
And of course there is one way you can depart from the conversation at hand, if you want to say something wonderful about your phiniac tank that is always allowed. But it will not help you win as the winner will be chosen via the random number generator!

LOL Good idea! (I love the part about Chief being kicked out! LOL GLV hater!) That sounds like it will be fun for everyone. I hope alot of people talk more about where they'd sneak their Pete.
yea that sounds like a fun contest!!! sooo much more fun when its a participation contest!! cant wait
Yup, but it not because he is a GLV hater. I just think because he sells our tank and because I work on his website that makes him not eligible to win. But we can tell himit's because he is a GLV hater!

Who doesn't like a good chat!
I was just kidding - I know he's a retail partner. But yeah - tell him it's because he's a GLV hater! LOL
I do too! LOL
Ok, have to turn in all .... have a good night moorea and reddhot.

Yup, I would say with 3,360 posts since March 2011 and 1,318 since November 2011 this new contest is perfect for the both of you!!
I need to head off as well. The hubby is getting ready to pull my hard drive and move it over to my new computer to transfer my data. I'll check back whenever it is I am on-line again.
Exactly one hour left to get your last minute mad libs in! I won't have a computer to remove the current mad libs when time is up, so just know anything submitted after midnight mountain, will be read and we might even laugh, but it will not count!
Mad Libs Contest
We will announce the winner sometime tomorrow (or today for those of you in different time zones)

Talk to everyone when I have a computer that is in one piece again or if that takes too long I'll check back on my cell phone!

Alright! Third times the charm
Hey Matadorx, how are you doing this evening?
Oh and by the way you have become a thorn in my side!
Looks like the hubby has a little more work to do, so I get to keep my hard drive a little bit longer.
Im doing pretty good. A little tired.. Im on baby duty while the wife gets some well deserved sleep, so I'm just thinking up ideas for my next mod.
I don't want to be a thorn in your side, what did I do this time?

I remember baby duty well! I give you props for knowing that any rest your wife gets is well deserved! How old is your Baby!
Hmmm... no you didn't do anything wrong... but some felt the hat contest was unfair to those that had slower internet or busy schedules. I really want to make sure every contest we offer is beyond fair and everyone enjoys playing. BUT HOW CAN THEY DO THAT WHEN YOU KEEP WINNING! Our last contest, we put in a rule where someone could be a grand prize winner only once. Some people didn't like that rule, but it was put in place to stop what is now happening! You did nothing wrong but be funny! Worst part is you have a partner in crime because Ripple is really good at this too!
I am now pouring over this weeks mad libs to hopefully find one that beats you and Ripple. If I can't do so, I might have to withdraw myself from the ECF, as I fear I will be tarred and feathered if you and or Ripple win again!
But knowing that Kissing Ripple is on your bucket list, just keeps making me laugh!
Don't start doing the happy dance yet, I am still pouring through the submissions and hopeful I will find someone aside from you or Ripple to win!

Our baby boy is a little over 2 weeks old. And we have a 4 year old daughter as well. I love night time baby duty, I'm a night owl anyway.
Kissing Ripple?? Is that a spoiler of the fun to come? I can't wait to read these Mad Libs!! Sounds like it's going to be good

Not a spoiler, the contest ended 20 minutes ago! This weeks Mad Lib was a Bucket List. (You know, things you want to do before you die) amongst many of the funny and no doubt embarassing things you want to do before you die is Kiss Ripple!
I will post the funniest ones tomorrow.
