Vfox Posted August 4, 2010 Report Share Posted August 4, 2010 Well it's about that time of year again. I finally finished moving and am on summer hiatus from teaching. I suppose that means...I'm bored! The rules of this contest are simple. I will give a series of clue about images relating to foxes (what else?) that I had found online. You, as the contestants will need to find the images and post them in the correct order to win. The first person to get all the exact images I had found and in the correct order - wins. The FIRST person to find a correct image gets a small incentive prize (it's not much but worth trying for). The FIRST person to find all ten and put them in ONE POST will be considered the 1st place winner, the second most accurate final guess or the second person to post all ten correct images will get 2nd place and so on down the winning list. I give better hints as the contest goes on, but you guys have to start somewhere! The prizes are...as always...a mystery, but you guys know I don't skimp too much. ScottO is you're reading this, I realize I never sent you last years prize, send me your address and I will post it asap. (He was a winner last year right around my wedding and honeymoon, things got...a bit discombobulated. ) Anyway, here is the first ten image clues. Good luck! 1.) A fox does make a good topping...right? 2.) Wasn't that a book? 3.) 64 bits of terrible. 4.) All weather mishap 5.) Retro karate chop...sorta... 6.) Wooden stare down 7.) Blue ...with Cherubim? 8.) It's computing power is only good when you rip its head off! 9.) I always hated that rabbit too... 10.) Stone fox is jumping?... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will leave this part up to you guys, do you want daily clues or just clues every few days?

Vfox Posted August 6, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 6, 2010 Wasn't there a mini-prize for who discovered each one first? No, but that isn't a bad idea actually. This contest always seems to evolve, meh. Okay I'll toss that into the intro and here as well. The FIRST person to find a correct image gets a small incentive prize (it's not much but worth trying for). The FIRST person to find all ten and put them in ONE POST will be considered the 1st place winner, the second most accurate final guess or the second person to post all ten correct images will get 2nd place and so on down the winning list. Now all we need is more people to play...didn't I have this problem last year?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
