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 !

=Dabble-Inn;49269880]I called Young America, They said they have no bearing on the outcome or who wins. They simply give out the money to whoever C tells them too. Go figure. Another pass the buck. No one wants to accept responsibility for this goofyness. Call the FTC, It's a quick call
Thanks...I will.

Blowup FrownOMG, after the 1st time I didn't think C would have the nerve to do it again!! WTH???? I'm so sorry for you guys-I know how you feel. Dabs, twice you had to go through this and it sucks. I've been reading the posts and agree-something is rigged somewhere. Maybe they told them they are all members of the Camel Club or something and it worked?? I had called then emailed them after last round (they were supposed to have a supervisor call and never did) and told them they could have at least spread it around and not give 8 people 16 of the 33 prizes, and they should have moved up the next eligible person with the most.....This is so much BS! That whole darn contest wasn't fair. All that time for nothing. Mad
Not a complete waste...a number of winners in Round 1 and lucky me in Round 2. But I agree about the seeming randomness of the winners of the last two.
Quote from BelAirBelle :
Iagree And despite some of us being in the finals twice someone won in round 2 with 19 votes and some won that weren't even in the finals!!!! AND remember what they did to Sprokitz?? He was on the winners list and got pulled waaaaaaaay later and replaced with someone else who already won a prize. They are crooked!MadMadMad
I don't know how much Camel has to do with their facebook page. If you scroll down to the bottom, Sprok is listed as one of the 1 K winners in Round 1.

I didn't mean round 1 or you Birthday Girl hug. I was happy for your win and the winners in round 1. It just seemed like they gave some people 2 or 3 prizes which seemed unfair and totally skipped others and gave someone a win that only had 19 and had already won in another category. Lots of ff'ers and both your sisters should have been in there, and they should have spread it around. Someone on the Camel board actually said " poor justin, he was a finalist in all 3 categories and just won 2.5k. Roll Eyes (Sarcastic)

Quote from Dabble-Inn :
A conversation in heaven;

SYLVIA:
Hi! Wanda.

WANDA:
Hi! Sylvia. How'd you die?

SYLVIA:
I froze to death.

WANDA:
How horrible!

SYLVIA:
It wasn't so bad. After I quit shaking from
the cold, I began to get warm & sleepy,
and finally died a peaceful death.
What about you?

WANDA:
I died of a massive heart attack.
I suspected that my husband was cheating,
so I came home early to catch him in the act.
But instead, I found him all by himself
in the den watching TV.

SYLVIA:
So, what happened?

WANDA:
I was so sure there was another woman
there somewhere that I started running
all over the house looking. I ran up into
the attic and searched, and down into the
basement. Then I went through every closet
and checked under all the beds. I kept this up
until I had looked everywhere, and finally
I became so exhausted that I just keeled over
with a heart attack and died.

SYLVIA:
Too bad you didn't look in the freezer
---we'd both still be alive.
LMAOIm passing this one on!
