Hi all,

I started this thread for anyone who wants to come here for lite discussion, jokes, and just general discussion and fun.

Everyone is welcome!

I was thinking that maybe it would be helpful to keep the original thread to a bit more of a serious discussion of the clues and answers.

This would make the original thread more useful to those seeking serious information and clues without having to read through hundreds of extraneous messages.

So, I hope it catches on !

So pop a beer and pull up a chair and relax !

Was this an out of the blue type thing?
Did you personally dispute any clues?
Did you get that other "final points" email the rest have been getting?
etc?

Well, the Netbook is worth around $275 - $325 and the bike is worth around $375 - $475.

You are best getting what your wife wants.

I find it funny that people called me a liar when I said Marlboro wasforwarding my info over to the judges, then called me a liar when I said they called me to change my prize but now everyone is getting emails to call in and change their prize. And the ones who called me a liar dont even come back to the room.
I guess because you were the first to get a call and be told that. Don't take it personally. It could have been any one of us. At least it all came out right in the end. I can understand how badly you must have felt, but so many of your "friends" on here said you were credible. I hope you have a really Happy New Year for all you went through. Did you finally get the prize you wanted? bounce

today i received an email from amazon that has a new samsung 150 selling for $389 and used ones selling for $289. i am guessing that if you were selling it yourself, you would get less.

For what is worth. I emailed and thier parent company, Altri Group. Just to tell them thanks. I bet they are overwhelmed by upset players by phone, email, and mail. A nice thank you note should brighten thier moods. Hope every body got what they wanted.... and if you did, send a thank you note. Untill next time Bye, Bye.

Don't know if you're here, but I just noticed that E! TV is airing a special on Katy Perry.
Starts at 8pm MST. Just thought I would let you know if you didn't already.

It's really funny... from reading the posts you can immediately identify the jerky non-smokers that are here posting their objections to everything. Wish they'd stick to the non-smoking rooms

A lot of us really like the flavor, personality, and perhaps non-conformist twist this forum has. Yes, other threads have strict rules, easy to read but not much fun (e.g contest/ rules/ followed by 30 "thanks" entries). Ho hum.

I think this group here is very cool. I really like being able to laugh several times a day and find perhaps the more fun or interesting contests without reading through 1,000 contests for trips to NYC or a contest where 5 winners win some stupid thing.

Rock on, out-witters!

FYI - netbook ordered 12/9 - no ship notice, no delivery. Waiting....

This statement (see above) needs reposting often to remind everyone (esp.rule nitpickers / nannys) of the VOLUNTARY nature of this entire SD site and this thread in particular. Gathering Grouphug YO, TO those easily offended by rule bending (eg OKDOKIE or whatever); Just ask a question about OWTW, get an answer or search for specific request and quit 'whippin the dog' Dead Horse Why do these rule-nazis think it is a requirement/obligation to CRAB about wasting their freebie freakin time talkin off subject about sasquatch or garys herky jerky or ynott /t***123 or banjo's or near-nakd cowboys or no-name bull*it or bouncing meece or stinkin weather or 'the grandkids Starwars or avatars or tech stuff (resizing avatars (cute) or fatdaddys 50 peeps party/camcorder or etcettera,etcettera. I LOVE this weird humor, quirky ECLECTIC site/community for all things Marlboro and OWTW. REMEMBER: They, who dies with the most shwag wins. Beer
Blowup Rant over Blowup
Also, be careful--no PUI's or PWAI's allowed or they take your mouse keys away!!!!

Nothing on the porch yet, team ordered bike and camera on 18th. Really curious as to what camera is being shipped as I have points for another large item. Just short of points for netbook. Sweet to have such nice options, isn't it? BTWHAPPY NEW YEAR to all the folks on this site and even the 'rulers'.Groupwave

TODAY 12/29/10
I do think this previous post is still relevant, esp since it's stll 2010.
I'm way behind, have not had much time to commune with wave 'MY MOST FAVORITE ONLINE GROUP' wave in the virtual universe.
Looks like the Marlboro OWTW thread under the 'deal talk' forum has been shutdown permanently. I do hope I got all the terminology correct. I check this Funny Farm ( thread is funny farm and lounge is forum ????) place often. I think this group works well together,is interesting and sincerely want to help each other. A lot of commonalities are developing and this less regulated thread should allow more latitude of OFF=TOPIC discussion, that so irritated the oldies on the other thread.
Just saying, I think this group has found a home and it would be great to find all of you here on the next brain-trust contest.Who knows, a couple years from now some of us will be moderators and help the rule-nazis find their place on this site. ALL I NEED TO KNOW ABOUT THE ENTIRE sd site I THINK I WILL FIND HERE.
Thank-You
