New competition!!

[Old Mod]

Afternoon everyone,
as the thread title suggests there's a new competition or two on the horizon!

Thing is, we don't know what it is yet! 😀

This is where you guys come in......
We're looking for fairly sensible ideas of what to do.
The main criteria is that it must be available to EVERYONE, even for non members who may join the forum just to participate.
So competitions involving a high degree of tiling skill, are not what we're after.
More along the lines of guess the weight of a half used bag of adhesive, the value of some coins in a bottle or indeed 'That tilers got talent' 😛

So please anyone and everyone please make some suggestions.
When we have a selection we can then make up a poll and vote on your ideas.

There will be prizes from sponsors available to winners. 🙂

Really hope you get involved.
Oh and just one more thing, remember, this is a public forum!

Marc.

Cheers mate.

'Guess the moderators van mileage'......guess the combined weekly mileage of the forum staff main works vehicles (Marc you will have to use a pedometer or phone app and we can work out roughly your mileage! 😛)
Deadline could be say 8pm on a Sunday so chances are we will all be in and online then.

Dan asked for written contributions recently (editorial / blog style?).
How about prizes for best written contributions? Anything from reviews to technical advice?

Good ideas mate, but I expect nothing less from the
HTMTS Fundraiser! 😛

Yeah good idea Imp, I'd worry it would limit the number of entries, not everyone has the confidence to write an article.
But definitely a good idea none the less, and will be added to the poll.

APPLE BOBBIN'! film it and post the videos. 1 minute, stick 10 apples into your favourite (cleaned out) mixing bucket, or "acceptable bucket" of your choosing (gotta say a minimum 10-15 litre bucket filled to at least 3/4) , prizes for say.... top 5? If anyone gets the 10 they get a "10 Bob" tag.

Winner will be whoever does the most, and any dead heats will be time based, like whoever got their first one the quickest, or in the instance of more than one person getting all 10, whoever did it in the quickest time.

@Paul C.
Sounds tricky and involved!
Ooow! Tell you what, do a demo for us, quite often things are easier to grasp if they're demonstrated.
You know, monkey see-monkey do! 😀

Ok, I'll take one for the team.... I'll pop a video up in the next few days........ If I really must 🙂
