That would be awesome!! I live out in the middle of nowhere, I've never even seen anyone else with an e-cig. This would be the best prize ever to talk to vapers and vape vendors face to face!!! Count me in!
I wish you all could win, as it's surely going to be great!
Congrats in advance to whoever wins!
Sadly, it's a stock entry form which won't let me enter because I'm disabled, but I never win anything anyway, so I guess it's okay.
Congrats to MadVapes for sponsoring a contest with a great prize!

Are you using a screen reader? If so, contact roboform. They have a version of their software that works with most screen readers.
If that's not it: There's an option to send in a post card to enter the contest.
That's not the problem. Because of my disability, I can't use a telephone, so I don't have one, so I don't have a number to enter into the form or to put onto a postcard as required by the rules.
You can just put in our phone number (704) 624-8551. Phone is the best method of contacting someone but next would be email or a written letter..

That's a nice offer, but it often can't be done -- there's a lot of software that will automatically delete any entry where the area code doesn't match the zip code or it'll delete any and all entries for which there are different addresses for the same phone number.
That may or may not be true for the software you chose, but since there's no way of knowing, we have to assume the worst.
And don't get me started on the large number of Veterans with PTSD who can't supply a street address . . .
I hope you don't think I'm complaining -- I know you're good people, and you'd never consciously try to lock anyone out. It's just an unfortunate situation where most of the available software was written in such a way as to try to plug all the holes to prevent people from making multiple entries, and the programmers never considered who else they might be excluding. You weren't to know it wasn't ideal.
I do think you're great for offering such a contest!
And again, congrats in advance to the winner!
I doubt hoog would post an option that's not going to get you an entry into a contest he's running.
If you do enter, you can still take the "glass half-empty" approach and assume the worst and hope for the best.
Some years ago, I opened a new bank account. I gave the lady at the bank all my info and told her why I didn't have a telephone number. All went smoothly and a few weeks later I received my debit card. When I tried to activate it, it was refused. I e-mailed the bank. They said my account needed a telephone number. I explained, they looked into it, and then they said I'd have to enter a spoof number like 111-111-1111 in order for the computer to consider the account valid. I did so, activated the card, and used it. Since it looked as if everything was right and proper, I transferred most of my money into that account.
The next time I tried to use the card, it was declined. I checked on-line and found my balance was fine. I e-mailed the bank, and they said my account was frozen because of suspicious activity (a fake phone number). I explained why it was fake. They said I shouldn't have done that. I attached a copy of the e-mail where their customer service told me to do it. They said I shouldn't have done that anyway, and my account would be frozen until I provided them with a confirmed telephone number. I explained yet again why I didn't have one. They said I had to have one in order to access the account, and that was the last they would discuss it.
It took almost three months and cost me $260 in lawyer's fees to get my money back because two people (the one who took my info and the one who told me to enter a spoof number) thought a telephone number doesn't really matter.
It doesn't take too many experiences like that before you learn to simply avoid any situation where the software requires information you can't legitimately provide.

But I think when the owner of the company says to use his number, it will be ok
