Sweepstake for complete Naim System
Posted by: Don Atkinson on 14 January 2003
Sweepstake.
Just an idea for Paul Stephenson.
I think the "hi-fi corner" part of this forum will hit the 100,000th post at 22.06hrs on Thursday 16th January 2003
Any better offers ?
The Prize?
Well this is where Paul has the opportunity to excell......
It could be a Nap 500
or..........a Nac 552
or..........a cds iii
or simply the whole shooting match on a Fraim with a decent pair of speakers to round it all off.
Winner would have to agree to the usual publicity/photoshoot etc etc eg at the Bristol HiFi Show and all the usual mags
Would draw in thousands of new enquiries to the forum and Naim (well, possibly)
I think its a great idea, and it could even be repeated for the music room and the padded cell.
No guesses where Paul really thinks this brainwave should reside....
Anyway, if you don't enter (free) you can't possibly win.
Cheers
Don

Which, if confirmed, would appear to make STEVO at 18.47 the lucky winner of a(n) ********
No doubt Paul S will anounce the winner soon and in a blaze of grandeose publicity, what the winner's prize shall be.....
Let me recall my suggestions
500
552
cdsiii
complete system including fraim
and do I also recall a further suggestion from a Mr Richard D......concerning a priceless article of atire for leading hifi anoraks....
No prizes for guessing the most likely prize, it has to be priceless....
100,000 posts...fantastic. and thanks to Paul and Naim and the Administrators for their time and efforts in keeping this forum going despite a few gliches now and again.
I'll open the sweepstake on the 1,000,000th post shortly....
Cheers

BUT did you see the time that Stevo posted? (Wed 18:47!)
I think we should have a stewards enquiry!

Don: The system suggestion sounds great - I'm making space for it right now - but I'd be oh so sorry to see my current set-up go. I'm sure Mr Stephenson will make sure I need to continue using it.
Seagull: Ouch! Just spot of innocent opportunism.....
All the best,
Stephen.

Good point, Seagull. Sooooo, that would make James the winner...??
Enjouyable little trip for Paul to carry out the installation.......come to think of it, where is Paul, he's gone mighty quite lately.....

Hi DON
jUST BACK TODAY!and away on Sunday for a few days. Richard is about to post, there are some issues but we do have a winner!

Alex,
It was either lend them to you or go quadrophonic!
And then the Stewards Enquiry sussed me out and my dreams were shattered.....
Stephen

Paul S there are some issues but we do have a winner
Richard D After a lengthy Stewards enquiry, necessary due to a complete lack of rules and some distinctly underhand tactics
Much more fun this this way.....(IMHO)
Cheers
Don
