View Full Version : Time for another give-away

**UPDATE: my # was 802. "Carfixer" was closest with his 777. Thanks for playing everyone!**
Hello MM.net!
I have 1 final item from my Marauder-owner days that I'd like to offer out to you folks. Just in time for your upcoming annual celebration, Marauderville....
It's a black, MM.net "Marauderville" flag, the type that clips onto your car window. It is in mint condition. If you show your Marauder, it's a cool little item to put on your window. I will also throw in (5) "Get Out of Jail Free" cards, the ones used to drop on Marauders you see around town.
How you get it: Like I did back in July with my lanyard give-away, I'd like to play a simple game. I'm thinking of a number between 1-999. Whoever guesses closest to that number, wins.
A quick hint: it's not the same # as last time (442)
Some rules:
- **Unlike last time, no "Price Is Right" rules this time.** It's whoever guesses closest, over or under. If 2 people are equally distant from the #, whoever did not go over wins.
- 1 guess per person.
- No duplicate guesses. Whoever posts up 1st gets the guess.
- Play nice. Try not to guess too close to another member. There's 998 possibilities.
Winner will be announced on Wednesday night, 8/24.
Good luck........GO!!

The random, not-car-related # I chose before the contest started on Sunday night was.....
802
The winner is: "Carfixer" with a guess of 777. Congrats!

Pretty far off considering the contest is over and the winning guess was 777

Good guess my friend, but there were 2 problems:
1. A fellow 442 owner already guessed the 455 and
2. You both weren't even close :D
I hope you and your family are well, Mark. I see that Simeone is having a "Ford Performance" day coming up soon.
Wait a minute. There is nothing in your rules about not being car related. Hence my guess of 4.6, the size of our motor. Otherwise I would have guessed 802.
You have some 'splaing to do Lucy.

Could have sworn that the first post said the contest would by over 8-24 Wednesday night? Guess I missed the time of the announcement. Oh well, I wasn't look to win anyway. :(

I hate to dig up an old post but this 1 bothers me a little.....
I did this give-away back in 2016. I tried several times afterwards to contact the winner, “carfixer”. I never did hear back from him. I know if I got a DM from this site I would get an email too but I heard nothing at all. In fact, I snooped around his profile to discover that his winning guess was his last post on this site(!). Naturally, my thought goes to...”I hope he’s ok”.
Anyone know “carfixer”?

Hold on folks. The contest already ended back in 2016. I never could get in touch with the winner, which is why I brought it back up. I’m actually wondering if anyone knows “carfixer” and if he’s ok.
If I cannot find him, I’ll set-up another contest. Standby.......

#802. At no time did CarFixer ever say give it to me. CarFixer drives a Japanse Car.
Yes, you can give it to me.

Hey guys, I’m still alive, just not as active as I used to be. Was surprised to see an email alert about winning the contest a couple years later lol. Anyway, thank you for your concern. Life seems to be getting in the way of me participating in stuff I used to love to do, hang out with my fellow Marauder enthusiasts. For the record, I still drive an American car with a supercharger, just 2 less doors than my previous supercharged ride.
Anyway, if you still have the prize, please give it to the next guesser as I likely won’t use it until I get another Marauder and who knows when that’ll be???

Hey man, sorry for the blow-up. I had sent you a few PM’s after the contest but heard nothing. I had forgotten about it until yesterday when I was cleaning out some stuff and I saw the flag. I checked your profile and your last post was that guess. I’m glad all is OK and I appreciate the follow-up.
I will likely run a fresh new contest in the next few days.....try that again.
Thanks.

He's my neighbor. I will PM you the number. His name is Claude. (and apparently I was too late) I'll take it for the effort, though.
