[The Monster]

So who is the other winner?

Where was this contest?

 

[lcummins]

I see it only lists a return flight. So you have to get there on your own then?


seriously, can you take anybody with you? Arent you single? ... I love you .....

Their term "return flight" means roundtrip from and to LA or SF.

Lonnie,

Remember when you went missing for a day 'cause you fell asleep on your bathtub and I was the only one (don't listen to Kain ) that cared enough to track you down and make sure you were okay? This is your chance to show me that you care, take me!!!

Love,
Ill

I can take one quest, but their flight, hotel, etc. aren't covered.

So who is the other winner?

Where was this contest?

Don't know the other winner yet; it was on the Weta website...

How old are you again?

 

[Ktjn]

Awsome prize, congratz. Just curious, are you going to have to fill out an affidavit? I sorta also wonder how many people entered the contest? I wasn't one.

 

[lcummins]

amazing!!!! congratulations brother!!! what did you have to do to enter the contest??

Just entered online at the Weta website; it was a random drawing.

Awsome prize, congratz. Just curious, are you going to have to fill out an affidavit? I sorta also wonder how many people entered the contest? I wasn't one.

Yes, there are affidavit and releases to fill out...

According to the email I received...

...out of thousands of entries, yours was picked as one of two winners...

 

[DarkArtist81]

AWESOME!!! Congrats Lonnie!!!

CAn you pick some lottery numbers for me?

Ditto that!! Jeez Lonnie, you are a lucky dude. I'm going to stick to you like glue at the next SDCC, maybe some of that badass luck will rub off on me.

 

[CelticPredator]

Contest was BS. No one over 21..... bah! Most of the people that play Halo are under 18!


Still...congrats!

 

[Bannister]

Congrats Lonnie, you lucky bastard.

 

[shaun-o]

Wow, that's a prize to be had. Congrats Lonnie.

 

[BeachBum]

Oh wow!!!!! Any ONE of of those prizes would be considered very cool by themselves, but you get ALL of them?! Talk about stimulous overload. Bring back a crate (or at least pix) of the new ray-guns, OK?

Like a few others have said, couldn't happen to a nicer guy. I'm sure you don't remember, but you answered more than a few n00b questions from me in Spook chat last year.
