What will be the Grand Prize for the Surivor Amazon contest?

[Jack White]

I know it's a little early, but I was wondering if it had been decided yet.

[Mark Lamutt]

You guys will know just as soon as I get things finalized. I'm working on something for Directv subs as well as Dish subs this time around, but nothing has been set yet.

Can't wait for the new season to start! Thanks in advance, Mark, for organizing everything!

:) I'm working on getting something for our Directv subscribers as well in the "grand prize" range. Can't really say more than that at this point, as I don't have the details worked out yet...hopefully soon...

[Lee L]

I know, either an HD DirecTivo or a 921. ;)

[Mark Lamutt]

I'd *REALLY* love to give away a HD DirecTivo and a 921, but I don't think that either one of them will be released to the public by May when the contest ends.

Of course, there will be a Survivor 7... and a Survivor 7 contest... :D

I'd just like to thank Mark for giving D* users a real reason to play this time! I did the Thailand one, but since all my E* stuff is in a junk pile in the basement I never got serious about trying to win.. :)

[Mark Lamutt]

You're welcome! :) I wish I could have gotton around the directv restrictions on receivers, but that just wasn't possible this time around. Who knows about next time, though.

[Maniacal1]

Unfortunately there's no incentive at all for Pegasus customers to play. :( :( :(

[Danny R]

You could always sell the 721 on Ebay I guess and pocket a good amount of money.

[Scott Greczkowski]

If someone wants to put $250 into an escrow account to be used if a winner is in a NRTC area to pay the DirecTV imposed fine then it would be possible for anyone to win.

And if someone wins who is not in the NRTC area then the person who donated gets the $250 back (plus whatever interest is earned.)

Almost sounds like a way for a company to get some exposure on DBSTalk cheeply and possibly even make some money by supporting the site. :)

Anyone interested?

(Just an idea from my big fat head) :D

Two more days!

Everyone check your votes. Looks like a bunch of folks have voted in one poll but not in others. You don't want to blow participation votes on an oversight.

[Wildfire_36]

lol too late! I missed 2 weeks in a row!! Remembered as I sat down to watch the shows! GRRRRRR

Oh well, my votes would have been wrong anyway.
