OK ... Santa lost his hat somewhere on our website and we need to help him find it so he can get back to planning Christmas!

The best part is he has left prizes hidden in his hat!

http://phiniac.com

Simply put ... We will be adding 7 hidden Santa hats to our website. The first person to find a hat click on it and fill out a form will win a big prize for that hat and the next 25 people to find the same hat click on it and fill out the form will win a smaller prize for that hat!


But we want to make sure the contest is fair and gives everyone a chance to win so we have included rules and stuff (but no small print), so read on for more rules, details, prize listings and schedules.

Starting 8:00pm Thursday December 1st there will be a hidden "Santa hat" placed somewhere on the phiniac.com website. Find the hat, click on it and you will be taken to a page that tells you the prizes for that hat! There will be a short form to fill out. The first person to fill out the form and submit it will win the big prize for that hat, the next 25 people will win the smaller prize for that hat. One of the hats will hold the grand prize of a $55 dollar coupon and there will be only one winner for this hat (see below for more prize details)

We will continue to add a hat a day up until the last hat on Wednesday December 7th! You will have until 7:45pm Thursday the 8th to find all the hats. Winners for previous hats found will be announced shortly after new hats are placed on the site and found hats will be removed at that time (please see below for a detailed schedule.) If a hat is not found before a new hat is added then all unfound hats will still be in play.

The prizes will be as follows:
2 hats will hold 15% off coupons for the first to find it and 5% off coupons for the next 25
2 hats will hold 20% off coupons for the first to find it and 10% off coupons for the next 25
2 hats will hold 25% off coupons for the first to find it and 15% off coupons for the next 25
1 hat will hold a $55 off coupon

The hats will be added to the website in a random order and you must find and click on the hat to know what prizes it holds!

Coupons for the 1st place winner of each hat will expire on July 4th 2012. They will be good for one use and valid for any available tank added to the website between now and July 4th 2012.

Coupons for the next 25 winners will expire on February 15, 2012. They will be good for one use and valid for any available tank added to the website between now and February 15, 2012.

Only one coupon can be used per order and the coupon can be transferred to a friend.

We want to make this fair and share the holiday fun with all of our friends on the ECF and Vapers Forum, so a person can only be a first place winner once. This means you will be awarded the 1st place prize for the first hat you were the first person to find. If you are the first to find another hat following your first win you will be dropped down to second place and win the smaller prize for that hat.

Please only fill out the form for each hat once. Multiple submissions for a hat will be discarded. Limit one coupon per hat per household.

Check to make sure you inputted your email correctly before submitting the form, coupon codes will be sent to the address you use on the form. If you are using spam software, be sure to add phiniac.com to your list of accepted emails! We respect your privacy and your email address will not be shared or used for any purposes other then this contest. Your email will only be used to send you an email letting you know your data has been submitted and to send you your coupon codes.

The first 26 people to find a hat will be determined by the server the site is hosted on. After you submit the form, the data will be logged on the server in the order it was received, so the first 26 people in that log file will be the winners for each hat.

Please note ECF members as well as Vapers Forum members will be playing so results and updates will be posted on both forums as well as our website.

Sounds a little hatty to me-I'm in!!!!!!

I love Joe Cocker! While I was doing all the programming and technical stuff to get this job going without even realizing it I wrote a little song in my head, but it certainly was not to the tune of anything the great Joe Cocker has done. And this contest was a huge task to put together. Luckily it will be MUCH easier to play then it was to setup.

Thanks all and I hope everyone enjoys it.

Just a quick FYI ... I've just placed an image of a santa hat on our home page to announce the contest there. Just want to clarify that this is NOT the hat you are looking for. It does not link to a contest form. The Santa hats you are looking for will all be right side up and look like this (just maybe a little smaller :p)
