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

Onkel Neal · 02-26-07, 09:55 PM

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!

Huh, whazzat? Did you say something Neal.
Sorry....I was too busy reading.

Onkel Neal · 02-27-07, 06:19 AM

Ahoy, Pioneer is the third mate,

now, the fun begins... let's see who can claim the surprise consolation prize...

Bill Nichols · 02-27-07, 06:57 AM

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

Konovalov · 02-27-07, 08:29 AM

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?

I wish I had mine already so I could hold it up too. Congrats to the first guys, you must have had those delivered in XXI's while mine is probably sailing around the world in a sweet little II.
