ok... its incredibly gay stuff of mine...
but who knows... one day it could be really
cool... and maybe worth a lot!
ok... my stuff will never be worth shit --
which is why i'm offering it to you!!!
this is a contest... i've done something like
this in the past, but this time, there is a
prize involved... and yes, i WILL send you
the prize... just for winning.
what do you have to do?
its simple:
i'll list a few things that i want you to
find on the internet, then you link the pic/image
of whatever it is... back here. its that easy.
although i wish you to host the image on your
own image hosting site, i will allow direct
linking IF the image stays up long enough
for me to see it and verify that it is,
indeed, what i ask for. also, please don't
link the images into the post... just give
me the url to the image (as i don't wanna
sit around waiting on your images to load).
you can play as many times as you want...
i don't care. as long as i can get rid of
some of this stuff...
whatever you do with it is your business...
sell it, break it... hell, i don't care.
if there is any winner other than jason (tg),
information to send the prize will be needed,
and i can get that via email or whatever...
just as long as i get rid of it.
there will be a new contest every week
(if i can find shit to give you)...
so that means you only have 7 days from the
original contest post date to get your
answers posted.
let's try this... and have some fun. =)

<font size=30>WEEK ONE:</font>
ok... this week's prize is good. its my own
personal blue goose figurine. i like it loads.

there is nothing wrong with this goose...

I apologize TG2, but if you will go to this link, you will find that the goose is mine.
The Goose is mine!!

Seeing as how I am moderator again, I SHOULD delete your winning post and steal the images to use as my own.
But I will not use my power....(since the administration now hovers over my every move [img]tongue.gif[/img] )
Congratulations on your win, Gravytrain.
You earned it.

Ahh....yes, see I took that into consideration. See...I created a webpage on the wonderful host of homestead so that I could have proof that I did in fact find the required pictures before any one else. Had you of deleted my post, I would have been able to prove without a shadow of a doubt that I did in fact win the contest.
I work in Conway during the week, so I would be available for pickup of my prize at any time during the week, preferably after 5:00 or any time during the average lunch time (11:00 - 2:00)
-
I think your picture of the glass hand kicks ass!
-
After doing some searching around, I believe that your list is incorrect.
While you did find a map of A navarre...I do not believe that it was the one Shatzy was referring to.
I am submitting what I believe to be the first correct entry.
Glass Hand
Animated Lion
Lady with Tea Bags on her eyes
Blue Butterfly
Black and White Ballet
Incorrect Navarre (like yours)
Correct Navarre
Person blowing a bubble
Incredibly funny pic
-
I think your picture of the woman with tea bags on her eyes sucks ass.
Are they really tea bags?? Don't look like 'em to me.
But for now please excuse me, I'm off.. to.. stalk.. Lenny, and.. Karl. Actually, I'm going on a scavenger hunt.
-
Awww I wanna play but I'm too late. Can't you make a real-life scavenger hunt? I'd be up for a bit of that. *insert thumbs up icon without jagged edges*
-
Due to the lack of specifics in the description of the picture required, I believe that my entry is in fact the winner. If we are going to get picky about things, yours is also not correct. In the request for a blue butterfly, what is truly asked? is she asking for a blue (adjective) butterfly or a blue butterfly (official name). I have included on my page an entry of an official blue butterfly. In the description of the pictures requested, no where was it requested that it be a map of the navarre,spain. it just says a map of navarre. Until Shatzy says who wins, I will still consider myself the winner.
-
gravy train wins
friggin GREAT pics!!! [img]graemlins/thumbs_up.gif[/img]
-
ok... its time to bring up some important information....
while tg was correct that i was interested in
the .... other map of navarre, i did not
specify WHAT navarre... and that is what makes
this game especially pleasing to me...
as long as the description is upheld, anything goes.
i totally dig gravy's glass hand... but i do
prefer the bubble pic best [img]graemlins/thumbs_up.gif[/img]
gravy... i would more than happy to schedule
a time for you to receive your goose...
just let me know.
as for a REAL scavenger hunt... i considered it.
but i figured no one wanted to really mail shit
to me for verification. however, anyone interested
in having a real scavenger hunt... talk to tg,
he knows how i make them [img]graemlins/devil.gif[/img]
a new internet scavenger hunt coming really soon.....
-
Thank you very much, I would like to thank my mom for giving birth to me, and my dad for impregnating my mom. also, i want to thank all those fierce competitors out there for giving me a challenge.
how do we need to work this so i can pick up my prize?
-
What about me?
what about my list?
www.get.to/my/toughguys
-
I would like to see to it that in the book of records, there is an asterisk beside Gravytrain's name in the 'Scavenger Hunt' win column.
-
hmmmmm.....
you can have it today if you want...
you say you get off at @ 5pm...
i will be doing things in the 2nd exit area
around that time...
want to meet somewhere?
-
That sounds great!
We will all meet in the vicinity of the 2nd exit.
DJ and I will then fight for the goose!
(and the girl?)
-
What about me? fight over me?
I wanna be goosed!
-
sounds great to me. where abouts in the 2nd exit area, that is where I work, I work at The Computer Works over behind all those car dealerships. You name the time and place. (Preferably around 5:30, i got to work a little late today)
and TG, you can have the girl, i already got several and don't need any more, you can have her (no offense shatzy)
and honestly, we all know who would win in a fight for the goose. you drive a van....remember?
-
-
i tell you what, gravy... call me when you are
done with your work and it will be settled.
if you don't have my number... then i KNOW you
have wes's... and if wes doesn't have my number,
tg does...
-
well what are you driving now then mr. smarty pants.
-
-
shit! you jumped in before me so now the flow is interrupted.
i am in a cherry 2003 chevy s-10. [img]graemlins/thumbs_up.gif[/img]
my dad just bought it as a truck for one of his salesman at his work and i am going to drive it until i get my next vehicle.
this weekend i went looking at dodge ram's with the hemi's and all that jazz but no one has shit.
they are all the stripped down models it seems like with cupholders listed as a feature.
they can order me one but it will take 4 weeks.
that wont be a problem if it comes down to that, i guess.
i'm just not sure if i am a 'ram guy'. fuck it. i dont plan to keep whatever i get more than a a year or two.
i need to go work.
-
ok, i lied.
technically i havent seen the s-10 yet...
should be today or tomorrow.
but i had to have a comeback so i fibbed.
if you are reading this, shatzy...i just talked to dj on aol and gave him your number. he will call about 5 to let you know what his deal is.
ok, NOW im going to work
-
-
ok ok... since that last hunt went so damn fast...
i'm doing another one... this time, the prize
is better... and the list is a bit tougher (i think).
take a gander at this:
http://www.boomspeed.com/whetherborne/rexbear.JPG
this is an unusual stuffie from L&F inc. it is
very old... at least 20 years. the fur is authentic
rex rabbit fur, and it is stuffed with sheep
curlings (as per label). the lighter areas are
not solid white. as stated, this is rex fur...
highly valued for its density and beauty...
the color is of the 'chinchilla' variety
see 3rd image HERE!
it is approximately 12 inches tall and 11 inches
wide (at the legs). it comes with its original
ribbon attached. it is very soft and fluffy.
i got this from a friend of mine. his father had
given it to him as a child, and he bestowed it
upon me. i no longer talk to this person due to
distance, so i'm offering it up to you.
hell, it'd make a nice v-day prezzie!
here is the list (same rules apply):
<ul type="square">[*] a picture of a turquoise or purple cherry coke can (i know they
used to make them in this can)[*] a picture of a green sewing maching[*] a picture of the cover of SEVENTEEN magazine... august, 1987[*] a picture of a toilet seat with a pine cone on it[*] a picture of TICKLE (the deodorant)[*] a picture of a midget in a rodeo[*] a picture of a sheltie (thats a dog) in a basket... a REAL
basket, not a dog bed thing[*] an ecard with either a koala or a moose on it (ecard must
be emailed to me -- get addy from profile)[/list]
btw... on the ecard... please tell me why you
would like to have this stuffie =)
-
As of right now, I am goign to have to let someone else win this one. I dont' think i will be able to find some of those pictures on one of my breaks so good luck to whoever takes on this venture. I must admit, I would like to have that stuffed animal.
Also.....I want to let everyone know I am now the proud owner of the Blue goose that was the prize of the first scavenger hunt. It is sitting on the top of my monitor right now. In fact, if I remember, I will try to take a picture of it so everyone can see both what it looks like in it's new natural habitat and get a good look of the conditions I am working in.
-
its cool, gravy... i hope that anyone playing
this round will take their time about searching
and posting... there won't be another shatzy
scavenger hunt until next week...
and besides, this prize is pretty badass...
the searches are a bit more difficult....
so i'm hoping it will take a bit to respond
to it.
as for your blue goose, i hope that he brings
you hours of viewing pleasure. one of the things
i liked best about that goose was the attention
to detail... like in the webbing of the feet
(the little bumps) and the beak. i thought the
beak was overly detailed. i liked the beak the best.
congrats again on winning the first ever SISH...
i can't wait to see the goose's new residence...
and i'm hoping someone else will attempt to play
so that they see i'm not kidding when i say:
when you play -- you can win!
ok... so i don't say that... but you really do
get the damn prize. [img]tongue.gif[/img]
-
For those of you still trying, I only have two left as of 10:00 pm central time
-
-
Hmm, remember my post back on page one? well, yesterday I was going to edit that and add MY pictures for week one. But my image hoster "boomspeed" was fuckin gay and the site wasn't working. And after going to alll the effort of finding pictures that weren't TG's or that other fellow who won it's - I wasn't going to just have them be disregarded. ACKNOWLEGE MY EFFORT!
-
i acknowledge your effort, adma....
and have you all know that NO ONE has completed
this hunt... so there is still time to complete
it...
also...
aside from the pics... all of you forgot one
special aspect of my hunt... which means...
no one wins so far...
and TG... although he may have copied your pics...
i cannot really verify that they were from the
same link because both of your pics are saved
on your own servers.... sowwy!
KEEP GOING!!! THERE IS STILL TIME! =)
-
I do believe she also requested a midget at a rodeo, TG.
IT'S SO FRIGGIN HARD TO FIND, TOO!!!!!!!
edit ---
what i've found so far... i give up on the toilet seat and the midget
Cherry Coke
Green Sewing Machine
Seventeen Magazine, August 1987 edition
Tickle Deordorant
Sheltie in a basket
And I've sent the eCard, also.
<font color="#6699FF" size="1">[ January 23, 2003 12:21 AM: Message edited by: KingBean ]</font>

Tickle and seventeen are the same as mine!!!
Find your own!!!
-
I must say, most of the pictures posted thus far as the same as the ones I found. However, I took this into consideration and I have a different picture for each of them, with the exception of the picture of the magazine because well, there was only one cover to find a picture of.
also, TG, i really can't believe that you would stoop to taking a pine cone and placing it on the toilet in your guest bathroom upstairs. and then taking a picture of it and posting it. that seems to be against the spirit of the game. also, wes dressed up in a shirt as a bandanna and shrunken does not seem to be to fit the description of a midget at a rodeo.
-
You are SOOOO out of the loop.
That isnt my guest bathroom anymore.
I moved my room upstairs back in May.
Anyways, I believe I won.
No one here can prove that the midget is Wes.
-
maybe not.... but there is proof that what you
see in the pic can be found in your bedroom...
and unless you hang around midget rodeo folk...
its a sure guess that the 'midget' is wes...
and the horse is the horse i won from a crane
game at pizza hut... which is sitting on your
bedpost...
now... if you wanna say that it isn't wes...
go ahead... but we all know it is.
and a hilarious pic at that! [img]graemlins/thumbs_up.gif[/img]
besides... i will count the wes pic and the
pine cone pic... and although gravy is correct
in saying it goes against the nature of the
game, i love that kind of creativity... and
consider it a mark on the plus side.
-
also let me add that because KB and adma are in
australia... (which is essentially over 12 hours
in time distance)... that is also taken into
account. it wouldn't be fair that those of you
living in the central time zone get all the wins
just because you see the thread faster.
so just to be fair... live with it. its how i'm
doing things. technically... you have until tomorrow
10am CST -- my time) to complete the task...
