Lightbulb ****March 2007 Subsim Contest ****

This is a contest for those supportive Subsim skippers who ordered an early copy of the 2007 Subsim Almanac. My way of saying "thanks!"

First three guys to post a picture of yourself holding up your copy of the 2007 Subsim Almanac will get a ping prize.

First guy wins a Subsim Battle Mug



Next two guys win a jumbo SH4 poster.


Post it in this thread, and win! To qualify, you had to purchase a copy of the book. Staff and contributors not eligible this time around.

If you are not one of the first three, post a pic anyway, I will give away a consolation prize for the most imaginitive, humorus and wittiest pic. (Hint: Use a little imagination, humor, wit in your picture ). So get that digital camera out, put on your skipper's cap, grab your Revell U-boat model, whatever.

Los!
Neal

Donner, you look just like what I would picture a seasoned skipper looks like!

Woot, man, you are second!

I may have to add more prizes ....

I'm not sending in a picture, Neal, but do want to say I'm thoroughly enjoying the read.

Neal,

If I can make a suggestion. I was thinking the other week of a thread that is a sticky where eveyone takes a photo of themselves holding the Subsim Almanac in front of local/national landmarks. At least that is what I was thinking. I'm off home to Australia for a few weeks soon and hopefully my copy of the Subsim Almanac will arrive soon so it can do a tour with me of back home. I would have started this thread except that I don't have my copy yet.

So what do you think?
