The winner has been chosen by Canine Defecation Selection techniques, aka Dog Poop Bingo, version 1.
The winner is ::::: R8Shell aka Rachel.
The winning square was R8
PM sent to R8Shell requesting address.
Spice deciding where to go...
The location.... using the southwest corner of the pigeon pen as 0/0,
Spice dumped at 15 inches north and 80 inches east.
And the layout grid showing where the decision was made...
For those folks who are curious as to this contest's location differs from DPB1,
DPB1 coordinates were 22 inches north and 66 inches east, about 16 inches away.
As the title indicates, it's time to bring DOG POOP BINGO back.
It's been a year since the last time we played this and it just seems fitting with all the crap flying around the interwebs lately. :barf:
Let's refresh everyone's memory on how this works, and explain it for the benefits of BF Noobies.
My pigeon pen yard is roughly 24 feet wide by 40 feet long. Using 2 ft x 2 ft squares, that provides for 240 squares, so that allows for 240 entries.
Contest rules::
1) This contest is open to any PAYING member. That means BASIC, GOLD, PLATINUM, KNIFE MAKER, SERVICE PROVIDER or DEALER. Sorry Registered members, but this is for those who monetarily support the forum to keep it going.
2) International PAYING members are welcome to enter, but must pay for international shipping. I'm springing for the domestic shipping, but International Shipping will not be paid for on my end. An International entrant winner is responsible for any import fees, taxes, etc. If a winning International entrant's country's Customs service confiscates the knife, that's on them, not me.
3) The entrant is, by entering, affirming that it would be legal for them to possess the below specified knife where they live.
4) No chatting - chatting belongs in the Kabar Chat thread.
How to enter:
1) Post an "I'm In" along with a Bingo Square selection from the grid below.
2) If you are a Kabar Krew member, you get a bonus entry - make ANOTHER post, again with an "I'm In"
"Kabar Krew #xx" and then your bonus grid entry.
3) If you are a Beckerhead, you get a bonus entry - make ANOTHER post, again with "I'm In", "Beckerhead #xxx" and your bonus grid entry.
If you are a PAYING member of Bladeforums, you get an entry.
If you are a Kabar Krew, you get an entry.
If you are a Beckerhead, you get an entry.
So 1,2 or 3 entries are possible. You must have a Kabar Krew and/or Beckerhead number at the time you register your bonus entries. If you achieve either status before the contest closes AND grid spaces are still available, you may make a bonus entry at that time.
The contest will end the day after ::
- all grids spaces are claimed
or
- I hit 5000 posts
or
- 15 December 2016, which ever situation occurs first.
This will give me a snow ball's chance in hell of getting the knife to the winner before Christmas. No guarantees that it will arrive before Christmas. I have absolutely ZERO/ZIP NADA control over the USPS.
How will the winner be determined? On the day of contest winner selection, I will measure, in feet, the X-Y coordinates of where my Red Heeler poops out in the pigeon pen. I will use that grid reference to determine the winning entrant. If she happens to produce "a liner", where part of her poop is in one square and part in another, the square that has the largest amount will be declared the winner. He she happens to drop "a spread pattern", the winning square will be the one in which the first nugget falls. If, on the day of the drop, she manages to hit an unclaimed space, the closest claimed space will be declared the winner.
The Prize:: Kabar 1232 Bird & Trout knife w/ sheath.
So below is the infamous GRID. The letter/number combinations are in a nice, neat format for tracking purposes. I have already randomly assigned combos to a spreadsheet grid to prevent skewing the winning choice by being a periphery dump, since my dogs tend to poop 90% of the time along the edges of the pigeon pen. The combos here are GREEN until claimed by an entrant. I will modify each combo to RED as they are claimed. This is the purpose for requiring a separate entry post for each entry.
IF a combo is THIS color, it is available for selection.
IF a combo is THIS color, it has been selected.
However, an entrant should at least peruse the last 5 or 10 entries to see if their selection has been picked by someone else but not yet updated in the grid. I gotta work and sleep sometime.
