[CLOSED] Just how far North are you? Giveaway.
on: July 14, 2015, 09:34:23 PM
One of my fellow Brits just accused me of having moved in next door to Santa. :D  While this isn't strictly true it did make me wonder just how far North (and South) MT.org reaches.  Given that this is our anniversary month you just know that there is going to be a prize for getting involved. :D

For taking part you get the chance to win one of these interesting lights from LED Lenser courtesy of out Friends at Leatherman.  It's the LED Lenser TT

So all you need to do is tell me what your Latitude is.  How do I work it out I hear you ask?  Well, either you can look it up on a map OR, if you are feeling a bit lazy, then you could always use a site like this one: http://www.latlong.net/
Make up a list in order please with your latitude and name. 

For Example:

90.000000 - Santa
56.643558 - Gareth
-90.000000 - A Lost Penguin

A random names from the list will be drawn on Tuesday 21st July.  Any questions?

Edit - PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU GO TO THE VERY END OF THE THREAD TO COPY AND PASTE THE MOST RECENT VERSION OF THE LIST.  NAMES ARE BEING LEFT OUT.

I suppose if they all live there, there's bound to be some lost ones :) did you know they can't even move them out of the way of the door in Antarctica? They have to wait for them to move before they go inside!

My lame joke about the penguin was to try and point out that they don't actually live at the geographical South Pole, only on Antarctica.  So to find one at -90.0000 it would have to have gotten a bit lost. :whistle:
