Hey guys!

Just wanted to let any TPT members know that they are doing a Stewart contest; if you answer the question correctly you will win autographed drumsticks and his CD! I'm sure this is an easy question for you guys :D

I think I got the right answer! Not like i'll get chosen :roll: and I haven't recognized ONE winner so far from any of the contests (even all the front row tickets they gave away...nobody came forward and raved about winning)

Anyhoo...good luck guys! Maybe we'll get some winners we know :D

Dreams really do come true right here at Publishers Clearing House.

Still not working for me. I think you need to be a $100 Police Fan club member to get access to the contest board (i'm not.) What's the question, i'm curious even though I am apparently not eligible for the contest.

Ahhh sorry Equalizer! Unfortunately...yes...you must shell out $100 to take part in the contests...big bucks I know :o

OK...shhhhhhhh...here is the question:


Who did Stewart take over from as the drummer in Curved Air :?:

Easy right?!?

Word of warning: If you win this one, you'll be ineligible to win anything else this year, most likely.

Guess it just depends on whether we think they'll reschedule the MTV taping. ;)

Yeah, I've been holding out on a lot of the contest entries waiting for something I really want to get my grubby hands on!

(Not that I don't want the anthology, mind you, but I plan on buying it tomorrow, as soon as I get out of the house...!)

Thank you Miss Dive. I would be highly pissed if I locked myself out of something cool like that. Which, incidently, I do plan to win if they reschedule. So, that just leaves 99 more tickets for all you other good people. :D

I'm still waiting for news from the record company to have a contest on this website...
.... but as you may imagine, the most important site right now is The Police one.

Psst . . . Not that I really want to lessen my chances or anything . . . but since I like you folks . . . According to Dave and Wendy, that's "rubbish. In no way does winning one contest disqualify you from winning a second should you be lucky enough to do so."

I promise that I'm not gaslighting anyone. Would be happy to forward the email from them.

Hmm, that might be the official word, but I'm just goin' on what some folks I know who have been sting.com members for years have told me. They never entered the little poster/cd/etc giveaways because it seemed if you won one of those, you never ended up being one of the big prize winners...

But, yeah, it's pure anecdotal evidence instead of anything definitely there in the contest rules, so it could simply be pure coincidence. I'll remain selective just in case... :D

Ahhh. Statistically that makes sense -- chances are slim to start.
