Title: The "Find Me @ FanimeCon and Win Free Stuff!" Game
Post by: heeroyuy135 on April 16, 2009, 05:33:50 PM
(Reposted from the Forums Game subsection)

Plz note: this "contest" is in no way afflicted with any FanimeCon event. This is being done on my own time with my own money.

Welcome to the 1st annual "Find Me @ FanimeCon and Win Free Stuff!" game!
The game is simple: you find me at FanimeCon, you win a prize!

This is how you play:
1) Go to my Twitter page (http://twitter.com/heeroyuy135) and subscribe! Don't have a Twitter account? MAKE ONE!
2) During FanimeCon, I will be Tweeting at the con as part of my coverage alongside my blog (http://www.caliconblog.net). I will also be announcing times in which to find me. I might Tweet "First one to find me in the Dealers Room wins a CD" then follow up with a clue like "Pizza Butt" (meaning I'm at the Bandai booth). If you're the first one to find me, you win!
3) Prizes may vary, from plushies to CDs to quarters already inside an arcade machine. You never know what I might pull out.
4) I will be doing this once a day for the four days of the convention. You never know, I might do a Saturday one early in the morning, or early early early Monday morning, or late Sunday night, or maybe Friday when I arrive at the hotel!
5) ???
6) Profit!
7) Enjoy the game!

wont be stuck at Reg Lines for [some possibly most] of your time?

Oddly enough its like he's sorta asking for stalkers.. but the irony is that you get free prizes. :P

it would be to easy for us Rovers tho, we'll just put an APB out on you, and radio each other when we see you pass by.
So technically you should exclude us from your 'game' otherwise we'd cheat, win and take all your prizes.

That and please dont give out food. its a liability :P

eh, its a first to get to him....no reason to put out an APB cuz whoever spotted him would just get the prize. If they don't want the prize than I would love to see a bunch or rovers briskly walking to him....


remember no running with radios....it scares the members

You know it must be so.
But at the very least it will be more free fun for me and my friend, who seems to be far more interested in going now.
The Fremont Anime Expo some how changed his opinion I guess =P
