Sounds like a lot of work lol

Each prize is worth about $350 --- so for about 30 min work it seems appropriate.

Email sent alittle bit ago

Is it the first 4 people who send in correct answers that win? or is it randomly picked from correct entries?
Posted by: sg_HustlinOwl on June 16, 2008, 1:25 pm
It should be selected randomly from those that send in the right answers
Posted by: Terr0rBlaze on June 16, 2008, 1:28 pm
Well in a regular scavenger hunt the winner is who ever finished correctly first.

Maybe the first two correct entries win and the other 2 are randomly selected?
Posted by: sg_HustlinOwl on June 16, 2008, 1:34 pm
So reward those that are just sitting here all day while others are at work kinda lame if you ask me
Posted by: Rush23 on June 16, 2008, 1:34 pm
Nah it should be whoever sent them in first, that is why they announced what time it would start, so people would make an effort to complete them first. if it's done randomly, what'll stop some person coming in 2-3 days late from winning it compared to somebody who did it on time etc etc
Posted by: Rush23 on June 16, 2008, 1:35 pm
Hustlin, i could hook you up with a proxy :)
Posted by: sg_HustlinOwl on June 16, 2008, 1:38 pm
Cant listen to podcasts on proxy, but thanks
Posted by: Rush23 on June 16, 2008, 1:41 pm
Ahhh ok, well even without those 2 answers there is a shot at winning it, there are plenty of chances in this contest to answer stuff incorrectly.
Posted by: robertmto on June 16, 2008, 2:11 pm

Posted by: sgibs7 on June 16, 2008, 2:36 pm

Posted by: Rush23 on June 16, 2008, 3:44 pm

Posted by: don4593 on June 16, 2008, 4:55 pm
I think I got them all right. I hope I am the first, but since I just got back from work...I highly doubt it.
Posted by: Rush23 on June 16, 2008, 6:30 pm
It's being done randomly I am pretty sure, so you slackers are lucky lol
Posted by: sg_HustlinOwl on June 16, 2008, 7:13 pm
Randomly great I turned in an incomplete list just to get it in on time
Posted by: Fort on June 16, 2008, 7:18 pm
Randomly? Damn. I don't know how fast I got it in, but it had to be extremely early. Oh well.

Posted by: don4593 on June 22, 2008, 7:18 pm
