The Lucky 13 oak ridge print giveaway. DONE.
    #12034233 - 02/15/10 02:13 PM (14 years, 10 months ago)

So, I have this beautifully made and preserved Oak Ridge print that was procured from one of our illustrious Trusted Cultivators that I'm going to give away in a contest.

Here are the guidelines:
This will go on until someone wins.
IN ORDER TO WIN YOU MUST MEET ALL OF THE FOLLOWING REQUIREMENTS:

YOU MUST BE OVER 18 YEARS OLD.

YOU MUST HAVE BEEN A MEMBER FOR AT LEAST 30 DAYS.

YOU NEED TO LIVE IN A STATE WHERE IT IS LEGAL TO CONDUCT MICROSCOPIC STUDY OF ACTIVE PRINTS AND BE ABLE TO LEGALLY RECEIVE THEM.

AND I HOPE THAT IF YOU EVER FIND YOURSELF IN POSSESSION OF MANY FINE PRINTS THAT YOU WILL PASS THEM ON FREELY.


I also only want to ship to the U.S. this time because customs forms sketch me out. (sorry international folks, I still love ya')

With that said, The winner has to post ALL the answers in one post. You can't have 13 posts with an answer in each because it will make it too difficult for the judge to dig through the myriad of posts.
I repeat. Put your answers all in one post. In the proper order if you want to win.

In order to make this as fair as possible and to avoid any butt hurtedness, I have enlisted the help of our delightfully charming and model citizen efrog to be the judge of this contest.
She is in possession of a PM that contains all of the answers to the following contest questions.

THIS MEANS THAT SHE IS HEREBY NAMED:
THE ALMIGHTY DESTROYER OF FOOLISH HOPES AND SHE WHO SITS ON THE THRONE OF JUDGMENT

There are 13 questions that I hope will inspire you to learn a few neat, trivial little facts and that will hopefully entertain you as well. Remember that it's not always the kill, but the thrill of the chase.

Here we goooooooooooo....... :cheer:

1: According to a popular classic rock song, there is a brook with a tree nearby. In the tree there is something doing something. What is in the tree and what is it doing?

2:What is meant by 'The Potential of Hydrogen'? and is it important to a mycologist?

3: What is the implied occupation of Savage Henry in the H. Thompson story, "Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas"?

4: What is often referred to as the universal solvent and why?

5: On a standard six sided die (dice), the number of dots on opposing sides always adds up to what number?

6: In the classic Alfred Hitchcock thriller "Psycho", what was used for blood in the shower scene?

7: What color would a zebra be if you shaved off all of it's fur/hair?

8: Technically the banana fruit is a what? And the banana 'tree' is a what?

9: Every month that begins on a Sunday will have one of these? What is it?

10: The word avacado comes from the aztec word ahuacate or ahuactl and means what?

11: What TYPE of disease do many scientist think could possibly wipe out the cavendish banana within 30 years. (The cavendish is the most commonly sold banana in all U.S. grocery stores and this is not a trick question.)

12: What is Hippopotomonstrosesquipedaliaphobia?

13: No word in the ENGLISH language rhymes with orange. According to my research, there are three more words like it
that lack rhyming partners. Name at least one of them.

Good luck y'all and most of all have fun.
I'll check for typo's but the final determination of the winner falls to efrog so that there aren't any questions about my being bias or anything.

The actual skin beneath the fur of a zebra varies between animals, some may have all pink skin like ours, while others will have black, brown or white patches. The fur is a separate entity all together from the skin. This is quite common in equine species. growing up we had a registered appaloosa that was completely white (they are supposed to have spots), and she did, but they were on her skin, not in her fur. a zebras stripes are like a finger print, no two zebra have the same pattern, and their skin is much the same way. Its all in the genetics.

Ok guys. I was going with old information on the skin of a zebra. I was going for black but will give y'all that one because I didn't research it enough to know that it can vary and therefore is a bad question. I do not however think that it is striped skin. so if you said that, well it's really iffy. :shrug:
The answer to #5 is 7 so whoever said otherwise missed that one.
I'll get efrog to post the answers I sent in the pm to her as to what I was looking for but don't anyone get upset. If you feel that you were the winner, I won't overlook you.
Give me a little more time. :peace:


And the internet is the new public library and no one is going to go out and read a book on all of this so without upsetting anyone, google answers are fine by my and I'm the one giving the prints so let's put that to bed now and forever. It's fine.

Yeah, copy and paste isn't as fun but this is the electronic age and we all get our info off the net these days. In fact, most of the questions I proposed were from off the net so it's no biggie and no one wants anyone upset over a fun little give away.:thumbup:
After checking around a little I am inclined to go with a zoologist opinion on the color of zebra skin over an answer from Wiki.
But like I said, that was a bad question on my part for not giving more thought to the ambiguity that could arise.
So here's the deal.
PM me if you feel that you were the first with the correct answers and we'll work it out. :thumbup::peace::heart:

Do you seriously think that it's OK to answer a quiz (not my quiz, so up to GoL - but this still bugs me as a human) by copy-pasting answers word for word?

It wasn't a copy-paste test. I mean, if you play Trivial Pursuit, do you hike it over to the PC to check google for the answers?

Also, your copied answer is still incorrect anyway.

I am not trying to incite a riot and I don't want to cause a scene in GoL fun thread, but seriously?

You didn't show yourself to be of any great trivial awesomeness, nor did you care about the print - so what was your point in answering at all?

Or: I don't think it was put in the rules because I think that most people accept that a trivia quiz is a test of what you know, not what you can copy/paste.

Damn, I knew that was the question I shoulda looked into a little bit more! I kinda just took the first answer I found and thought was right.

Cool contest!:thumbup:

and i can say the same to you, do you honestly think that anyone who answered questions DIDN"T use the search engine? just like sang just stated, he too took the wrong answer...

and as far as the print, yes i would of loved to have an oak ridge to add to my collection, but im not going to stress over it, its not that big of a deal..

EDITED: You know what? Whatever, man. If you feel good in yourself about it - then who am I to judge?

Gangster's contest not mine - so sorry for being a bit bitchy about it.

Answeris still WRONG though and frankly? Wikis and other user-submitted info sites are making people more and more ignorant by the year because so many people post totally incorrect answers, then others propagate these answers, and then you just have a load of people copy-pasting stupid things which aren't even true.

Just like the proliferation of mushroom and cannabis propaganda.

Anyway, sorry for disqualifying you when I was wrong to do so.

Your answer is still wrong though - so I guess google better next time.

well put, as stated i dont care about the print, if the answer to one of them from me were wrong thats perfectly fine, i just dont approve of changing your 'rules' afterwards..that is 'bad business'

so all is good :wink:




Do you seriously think that it's OK to answer a quiz (not my quiz, so up to GoL - but this still bugs me as a human) by copy-pasting answers word for word?

It wasn't a copy-paste test. I mean, if you play Trivial Pursuit, do you hike it over to the PC to check google for the answers?

Also, your copied answer is still incorrect anyway.

I am not trying to incite a riot and I don't want to cause a scene in GoL fun thread, but seriously?

You didn't show yourself to be of any great trivial awesomeness, nor did you care about the print - so what was your point in answering at all?

Or: I don't think it was put in the rules because I think that most people accept that a trivia quiz is a test of what you know, not what you can copy/paste.





I can agree with both sides, but in the end I think it was just a creative way to give something away to someone willing to put it a small amount of leg work.
Take me for instance. I am just completing my first cultivation and look forward to return the kharma to the community by holding a contest. You can't just say "free print to whoever says ME ME ME"
So you come up with some random, fun contest that probably doens't matter either which way as a way to keep thing interesting and share the wealth. Am I wrong?

Well, as far as I am concerned, as the judge of this shindig:

NO ONE HAS POSTED THE RIGHT ANSWERS YET.

There are correct answers to these questions - and these are yet to be posted.

So far, there is no winner.

I too, have googled to double check the original answers and actually done some research, and the other answers - all of 'em - are still incorrect.

If we are forced to eliminate the question in question, than the first closest is avorg and he would win by default, as he was first and he answered everything else correctly and damn fast, too.


As judge - this is my decision.

Our kind sponsor may have something else to say, so I will await his decision, before posting the answers.

OK,
avorg was the first one with the correct answers if we say fuck the zebra question because I don't have time to debate it and I'm currently fresh out of zebra's to shave in order to find out.

next came biologys who did great but answered #5 incorrectly so technically he was out because of that.

Next was sanguine who once again did well minus the zebra thing.

insomniatic_trips: you did well but missed the one about PH so I had to count you out as well.

coolnamehere: you also did great minus the zebra thingy.

So Avorg is the winner folks. So avorg, PM me your info please.
If I've talked to you via PM, go with the information I told you.
Thanks for playing everyone and just a FYI, I'm choking the shit out of the next goddamn zebra I run into.

I'm not sure but from now on my answer to any question of that nature will be golden brown as they rotate on a spit over a fire. :minigun:  :guns:  :minigun:
