netsmithUK 488 Posted June 25, 2005 TimeTunnelModels.co.uk, not content with giving all our members 5% and subscribers 10% discount on all the parts they have listed in our parts shop, have given me a brand spanking new in box Hornet to give away Because I've got a lot of things to give away this year so need to do some thing quick, and also some people find the photo comps a bit tricky, this one you can do from the comfort of your own armchair (assuming you can reach your computer) and has next to no skill involved. To win this model, all you have to do is guess the average number of visitors PER DAY (NB Not 'hits') to Tamiyaclub.com in May 2005. If you want a clue you will be able to find our previous months figures appearing at various stages over the coming weeks somewhere over on the Timetunnel models website - I'll let Neil post the details as to where... Basic rules are: - Competition opens 1st July (link to entry page will be published then) - Guesses must be in by midnight 30th July 2005. - Closest guess (under or over) wins - In the event of tie the FIRST person to have guessed the closest wins - Only ONE guess per subscriber id="red">- NO SECOND CHANCES, no changing amount later. - Postage is included but you will be responisible for any local taxes that you may incur. So its up to you, you can guess early before you've seen previous months figure and get your guess in first, or you can wait get the figures and use them to make a more educated guess - although you run risk of someone else guessing first[] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

theshopkeeper 39 Posted June 25, 2005 A clue, but not the answer, can be found on our specials page... http://www.goldstarstockists.net/playtime/...cial-offers.htm I'll update it every weekend with another month's stats, so as Chris says - you can guess early or hold out till the last minute!

netsmithUK 488 Posted July 2, 2005 This competition is now open!! www.tamiyaclub.com/guess.asp to enter. Good luck Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
netsmithUK 488 Posted July 3, 2005 fools rush in .... Glad to see the competition entries are swarming in. Interestingly enough even though timetunnel listed the figure for december (and soon to post figures for jan, feb etc) we still got people jumping in with guesses which are out by a factor 100+ over and under !!! So there is still lots of room for people to take educated guesses at what it might be and steal it at the last moment. Chris Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Admin1 2 Posted August 2, 2005 Nice try. The results are being checked at the moment. The fact you can still guess is just down to the fact I can't turn it off at the moment. No guesses after midnight on the 31st will be included. Results soon. Next comp will be opened on Sunday. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
