RETIRED Marlboro Outwit the West Funny Farm

228 92 October 16, 2010 at 01:35 PM
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 !

Thanks to both of you for answering, "No it didn't give me a digital code, maybe its to be sent to my E-mail Dontknow I looked in the rules and the only thing I saw was its a Master Debit card, drawn from the bank of California and can be used to purchase whatever,,, I didn't see anything relating to only on-line or phone purchases.... Maybe Master is different then Visa in doing things...... Every Debit I've gotten from Camel has always been Visa's.

daisypetal, I think your right about only being able to use the Virtual cards online... I thought I read the rules clearly... evidently not ! it reads;

Grand Prizes (13,000): Each Grand Prize winner will receive one (1) $50 MasterCard® Prepaid Code. Approximate Retail Value ("ARV"): $50 each. First Prizes (85,000): Each First Prize winner will receive one $25 MasterCard® Prepaid Code. ARV: $25 each. Prepaid Codes are subject to terms and conditions as set by the MasterCard issuer, First California Bank "" "and are only valid for use at certain online retailers ""

How Cheesy is that ? what happens if I would like to use the card to buy a pack of Camels, or to stop at a Burger king while I'am out and about to purchase a Whooper and frie with it.....

I guess they'll send some kind of notifcation either by Mail or E-mail to inform us of which "certain online retailers" we can spend it at, along with the E-code to activate it.

I shouldn't complain, aleast I won.. "but this just seems to be scrapping the bottom of the barrel to me.

Quote from ichijinrai :
Sitting here thinking tonight. Always a bad indication, LOL. I've entered the current Marlboro contest 18 times and tonight will be the 19th. My cowboy buddy who has a short attention span and a shorter fuse, has also entered 18 times. Neither opf us have won anything. Neither of us are having "fun" with the current contest. About the only thing this contest does is make one check their Spam and email logs on a regular basis. He and I were "partners" in last years OWTW contest. He and I had great fun with the questions and such. He looked at me once and said "That question makes my head hurt" and though he was serious, I laughed for a good ten minutes, with him joining in. This contest has none of that. This contest is boring.

I wish Marlboro were to have another contest that encouraged interaction like the previous OWTW contests did. The few faults with the last contest were caused by the choice of some questions that either had answers that were subject to opinion or the questions were trick questions where the intent was to mislead the contest participant. The straight forward Q's were however very fun to solve, especially with the group here at/on SD.

Ichi
I agree - it was a great time....It must take them quite a while to come up with such difficult questions to answer....maybe we should all send them an e-mail or call to let them know ...? Smilie
