QBPPC - Comments and Questions

#1 Post by nitrah55 » Tue Oct 21, 2008 9:17 am

This is where to post if you have a question or comment about the contest. Entries only in the other thread.

Put on those thinking caps.

I've clarified one rule.

You need not (in fact, I'd prefer you didn't) list the daily double states separately. Just include the ones you think the winner will take in your list.

Do you want me to take my comments and DD selections out of my post?

Another rule clarification: the District of Columbia is a state for purposes of the contest.

Keeping this readily findable.

Questions on the contest? Right here.

Questions on the election? Start your own thread. Everyone else does.

You have less than a week left to enter the Quadrennial Bored Presidential Prophesy Contest.

Noon, Eastern Time, Monday, November 3.

Which, depending how Bud Selig feels about the weather in Philadelphia, could be the same time the World Series ends.

It was not doing the ballot that took the time.

It was deciding what to put on the ballot.

That took me an hour.

I was undecided.

Pea, I'm shocked.

A perfectly good double-entendre, and you missed it.

The time change must be making you very sad.

I didn't even read it right!

It is the time change.

Yeah - that's my story.
