Battleships Style Giveaway
on: February 22, 2013, 03:34:25 AM
It seems to be a trend that people reaching a milestone of posts have a giveaway, and after recently crossing the 5k threshold I thought I'd better pull my finger out and do something  :P I've also been having a sort out of my stuff and there's a pile of stuff I can give away (some of which is shown here, but there's other smaller stuff too)



THE GAME:

Hidden in the grid are five winning squares. One of the squares is worth two prizes, two squares are worth three prizes, one is worth four prizes, and the last one is worth five prizes. Prizes will be randomly selected from the pile and will be a surprise (may or may not include items from the pic). The winning squares are INDIVIDUAL squares, so you are not trying to reveal 5 adjoining squares for the 5 prize pack - just one square  ;)

NOTE: Winners wil be asked to let me know of any legal/customs restrictions in their area such as locking/OHO knives, and I will ensure the prize pack is free from problem items  :tu:

Never been in a MTO giveaway yet so I am excited! This makes me feel like I want to play battleship, I haven't in years.

I'm pretty sure at least one of these is a winner, but I've not got my sheet on me at the moment to check :ahhh :ahhh

Just one guess per member, otherwise they'll have all gone before some members get chance to login and play  :salute:

Btw, as I can't see clearly on my mobile, is that one of those Tank lighters in the pic? The one that closes only the chimney.
