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 !

My sister received hers and she ordered it after the extra points were given. I ordered mine the night the game ended and Marlboro game me till 1/11 to change my order. I didn't respond so I guess I'm at the bottom of the list to get my netbook Frown that's okay though because my biggest concern now is not qualifying to play the next game because I live in Michigan!
I'm confused about the contest that people are talking about. I know there is a SNUS contest going on currently and yes since I'm in MI too I'm not qualified. Is there another upcoming contest too ? By the way, I ordered the netbook the night the points were awarded and then also called up to confirm that I wanted the netbook after the points total were changed and still no sign of netbook for either me or my husband.

For anyone in the Ford Focus Rally:
Team Grey posted a lot of information about how the rally is going to work in the near future. These guys are really on top of things. Today is the last day to switch teams without losing your points. It seems like this team will end up the winners since they are doing so much to keep everyone informed, so I just made the switch. GO TEAM GREY!!!

New Hot News for All you Grey Team lovers!

1. FOCUS RALLY POINTS/GARAGE CREDITS: The focusrally.com site will be updated once the competition officially starts with sections that will give you the opportunity to help us out. This will include a *GARAGE* where you can 'buy' items with the points you accumulate from doing the DAILY TRIVIA and even just logging in. Depending on what LEVEL you are on the site, you will get "x" number of points that you can spend EVERY DAY. It is a use it or lose it type of thing so please log in EVERYDAY and use them!
This will give you the chance to either add GARAGE CREDITS; helping our team or slowing down others with ridiculous items.

Focus Rally Points: Each point is an raffle entry to win prizes/car/trips throughout the competition. Raising your point level RAISES your "LEVEL." Get more points by recruiting more friends to follow team GREY.
Level = Your level allows you to receive garage credits everyday
Garage Credits: Log in everyday to focusrally.com and as a community contribute to purchase items to help us or hinder other teams.

Ridiculous Garage items (GARAGE Sale): Prioritized on High to Low.
1. Magical Air Freshener: HIGH Priority. Our team skips a challenge and moves on…….. NICE, real NICE!
2. CAR in a BOOT (slowing down a team for 30 mins): HIGH Priority
3. Survival Packages: HIGH priority. Supplies with flashlights, food, rope, goodies, etc.
4. Upgrades: Medium-Low Priority. Give us each a room upgrade, better meals, pedicures, etc.
5. Silly Costumes: Low Priority. Forcing another driver to wear a ridiculous costume ALL DAY in their car.
6. Jonny Moseley Bobble head doll: Low Priority. Please don't give points to this.

You get the idea. There are things that will help us or sabotage another team. Also on the site will be a live feed/chat area on our page where we will be able to communicate with you, which will come in handy for some of these challenges.

2. JUMPSTART COMPETITIONS -- HUGE/VERY IMPORTANT. These challenges will run each night prior to the start of each stage for us from 7pm-11pm EST. You can DICTATE when WE start each stages of the race. With your help we start first. Without your help, we start last. The team with the LARGEST PERCENTAGE of overall followers that answer the challenge ACCURATELY will have a significant advantage when we start the challenge the next. You will be notified either via our twitter/facebook announcements and potentially via the SMS/email alerts that you signed up for.

3. CHECKPOINT CHALLENGES --ALSO, VERY IMPORTANT. This is a LIVE FEED challenge that we have to participate in before we end the 'race' for the day. WE NEED YOU TO SIGN UP FOR EMAIL/SMS TEXT UPDATES. You will be notified by Focus Rally when we NEED your help. You will be sent to the website and complete a PUZZLE then you can LIVE chat with us and the camera in our car to help complete the next PUZZLE. WE ONLY HAVE 30 MINS. The quicker we are able to complete, these, the faster our race time will be ultimately helping us win in the end. If you were worried about signing up for SMS, please reconsider because we can promise you that Ford will not be spamming you. These alerts are solely for the purpose of helping us throughout these challenges.

We win if we have the most points after the whole race. We get points from CHALLENGES and ranking within RACE STAGES (the driving race in between the challenges).

Please help spread this word to others that I may not have included on this email to ensure that everyone knows how important logging in and helping us with our challenge is. We will also post updates to our facebook team page so that you can send people there to see this explanation too!

We will continue to update you with information as we receive it!

The saying "money isn't everything" is so true. It is wonderful how much you appreciate your daughters. Having happy, healthy children is certainly a blessing.

Quote from michiganwoman :
Not sure if anyone knows or cares for that matter but Michigan and Maine are not allowed to play the new Marlboro game. I called Michigan Attorney General today and told them of my dilema of not qualifying because I'm a Michigan resident. I made it clear I wanted to win the Harley or better yet the $40K. Who would not want to play?! They are going/suppose to call me back. She said perhaps it's because of the "lottery" of drawing winners on a weekly basis. We'll see....I'll keep Michiganders informed on here.
The state probably wants its cut of the winnings since its more of a lottery type of win.

Do you have a friend or relative outside Michigan that will let you use their address???
