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 !

Yes, the grammar/spelling aren't bad, but there's nothing about 1099's or notarized signatures. They're just going to drop it in the mail if I send them my address? shake headshake head

I sent the email to the magazine (didn't just hit "Reply" but found a Contact address at the actual website) and asked them for confirmation. I'm not proud, but I'm not expecting anything either. They're probably inundated with emails from this.

Congratulations!! Someone, don't remember who, was here yesterday asking who won the Blu Ray player from the Kool-Aid game, and if they had received it yet. Hopefully whoever it was sees your post & gets their question answered.

I got that email as well, although I don't remember entering the contest -- things tend to blur together after a while. I'm ticked that the Contra Security code breaking one ended. I actually enjoyed playing that one.

But speaking of emails, I've just gotten one that's an obvious scam:

"Hello from In Touch Weekly!

Congratulations, you're a contest winner from a sweepstakes you entered on
intouchweekly.com

You have won an LG Cinema 3D, the Next Generation 3D TV!!

To claim your prize, please kindly reply to this email asap with your
address and phone number so we can send you your winnings.


(Please note: Kindly respond to this email within 7 days, with your address and phone number. We would hate to choose an alternate winner and you not receive your prize, so please do send a prompt response!)

***Please allow 4-6 weeks for prize delivery***

Thank you and we look forward to hearing back from you! Congratulations, again, and thanks for reading In Touch Weekly!"


I have entered some of their giveaways and they've probably been hacked by the same people that got Krogers, my bank, and all the rest. The TV is probably currently in Nigeria. OMG
That one does seem legit,,,they were giving that away about a week or so ago,,,I still enter those with them,,,you might want to check it ouyt further,,,,I hope that congrats is in order

Hmmmm.....what if it's legit? I remember them having a sweeps for a TV awhile back.
Then again, I don't really know what a winning confirmation email even looks like! Roll Eyes (Sarcastic)

[QUOTE=MLx3;38661327]I just do Google searches for animated .gifs - there's tons of them out there - and I just love 'em, especially when I get to use them to congratulate my friends on their wins!

I tried multiple methods of copy/paste from my computer at work (Windows 7) and nothing would paste, including jpg's, tiff's, etc. direct from my hard drive files. I don't feel comfortable on work computer downloading firefox or chrome ....may try from my home computer over the weekend. Have loved all of your special congrats you've been finding to send to everyone. What a delightful, special and memorable touch.hug
