I wish that I could post the official rules, etc. but for some reason I can't copy & paste from their site. I wonder if it's because I have dial-up? lol

GOOD LUCK EVERYONE! Smilie

Clue #1 - Get rooted.
If you can find the tallest giant in the land, you'll find that the million will lie to the East.
Answer #1- Hyperion, Redwood tree, Redwood National Forest, California

Clue #2 - Where the West expands.
The million will lie somewhere to the west of a monumental gateway to the West. The famous landmark is represented in this equation.

y = A (cosh X over L C -1)

x = L over C [cosh-1(1+y over A)]

Where, A = fc over Qb over Qt -1 = 68.7672

C = Cosh -1 Qb over Qt = 3.0022
Answer #2 - The Gateway Arch in St. Louis, Missouri. So, that puts the million East of Hyperion and West of the Gateway Arch.

Clue #3 Kick back in a peaceful place.
If you want a chance to claim the million, you'll have to head South of the first shared international, national park of its kind.

Answer #3 Waterton-Glacier International Peace Park in West Glacier, MT.

CLUE #4 - One Rare Critter -
This once endangered southwestern isopod is naturally found in only one thermal spring and shares its name with the county it lives in. Like this animal, the million will be found in only one spot. And to find it, you'll have to look further North.
ANSWER #4 - North of Sedillo Spring in Socorro County in New Mexico.

These recent comments have nothing at all to do with last Summer's "Big Dig" promotion... why would you guys even dredge up this old post?? This was SO "3 promotions ago"...

When my husband called a few weeks ago, he was told that they are going to stop doing the internet ones because of all the non smokers winning. Especially the ones who go to the ranch and never light up. They are coming up with new ways for the contests. He told my husband it might not happen overnight, but there should be some big changes to weed out the non-smokers.

I smoke, so I'm very glad they are doing this. A friend won a trip to the ranch and over half the people there didn't smoke and some even complained about it.

I didnt want to reply to this thread as its for a contest that is dead. I do not know why so many of you felt the need to. But I did want to reply to this comment.

I went to the Ranch twice last year.And I highly doubt 1/2 of the guest at any time were non-smokers. A handful perhaps. But 1/2 nope dont see it. Also the guest does not have to be a smoker. The couple of times I was there I saw maybe 2-3 people total out of the 100 guests.

As to them not doing contests any more online.. I also doubt that. They cant go back to the Marlboro miles program or anything similar. They already do their bar promo teams but thats only if you live in a larger market. They also already do random ranch invites to people in their database. I guess they could go back to calling in. Or do text entrees. But then it would be the same thing.

Sorry to open the thread again since it's dead but had to add my comment to the last few posted. I do a lot of cig contests and games and have noted on more than one of the clicks lately that the rules states "...By agreeing to these rules you certify that you are a SMOKER age 21+... "
