Okay, so the contest to win a free t-shirt from 1234 Pens didn’t go quite as well as I had hoped, but I am never one to back down from my word. After all, a promise is a promise.
Considering that there were only three entries, each participant has an exceptionally good chance at getting their hands on a free shirt to wear this summer. I decided to have a little fun and shoot a short video of me selecting the winner of the first ever Beyond the Rhetoric contest.
So, without further ado, let’s find out who the lucky winner is.
Congratulations Oubipaws! Please email me with your mailing address and such so that I know where to send the tee. I’m sure Tejpal at 1234 Pens would appreciate a post on your blog linking back to his promotional pens company, but it’s completely up to you whether you want to do that or not. On a side note, if I don’t hear from you within the next week or so, I’ll have to pass on the winnings to someone else. (You should set up a contact form or something on your blog.)
I’d like to also thank Jason (aka Foximus, aka one of May’s top commentators) and Michael McKinlay (courtesy of Spud Oregon) for entering.
Maybe I need to offer a better prize. Anyone interested in a USB TV tuner or a mobile PDF scanner?
I know for a fact that getting people to enter competitions is hard work…put I’d give my first born child for a ticket in a USB Tv tuner competition!
I’m loving these videos on the site. I think video blogging is becoming quite popular – have you thought about doing an entire post by video? Maybe a site review?
Maybe if you do a video blog first :p
Okay, the USB TV tuner might be the next prize. I’ll have to think of some evil way to enter though. Suggestions?
i too like the USB TV tuner idea!! Maybe you could do a video blog about the contest!
Always nice to have contests and drawings on the blog. I liked your video drawing too.
OK, well next time I am going to win, especially if it’s the tv tuner. I think a scavenger hunt of some kind would be fun.
Hey I just found your site via John Chow. Well I like the new contest much better than this one good luck!
