I think it is only fair to say that I asked Doug to provide me with some information, therefore his decision to retract. Doug, I appreciate your willingness to work with me here...:thumb: Regards, RickieB
I assume that's a reference to his huge collection of Fort Worth Mule Notes with backplate number 295.
I've already got all the answers, very sly of you Rickie that there is only one answer to all the questions. The answer: Apple Pie Okay Rickie, now give me my prize. Phoenix
RickieB- I don't know enough about currency to participate, but if you need any help with the machine gun I am always there for you, my brother! Mike
Guy's...I know Feb 16th is quite a ways off...but it ties into the contest somewhat! Pay attention to the contest and the questions that are forthcoming!! Good luck to all.... RickieB
#1 Lead Up to the Paper Money Contest. For all who plan to enter the contest the following requirement is therefore announced! In order to qualify for the Contest, I must receive a PM from each player with a time stamp Dated on Friday and/or Sat Feb 8th and 9th. This 48 hour period will qualify all who decide to engage in the Contest. So everyone who has already stated that they are in, will need to submit a PM with an Official Time Stamp. In part, this will level the playing field and people who have follwed this Thread will know what is going on. Looking forward to your PM's. Regards,
Howdy Phoenix... The timestamp is put onto the post when you submit it to me. all you need to do is PM me anytime on the 8th or 9th to be "Officially In" Regards, RickieB
When you post the official rules, please specify the controlling time zone, which I assume is Eastern Standard Time since Lincoln was assassinated in Washington, DC.. After all, 7:22AM on Feb. 18th in Washington is, among other times: 12:22PM that same day in England and other parts of Europe 9:52PM the same day in parts of Australia, and 12:22AM the next day in Guam and the Marshall Islands. There are forum members all over the world and they need to know exactly when the contest ends.
Hontonai, Thank you for pointing that out! You are 100% correct. The "Time Standard" for this contest will be EST (Eastern Standard Time). Thanks again.... Regards, RickieB

LOL - if that darn Topher is one of them I know I have my work cut out for me! Come-on Topher - Bring it
Rickie, It looked like a cool contest but I didn't enter, cause I've won some before/held some before and there might be a young collector who could really use the prize more than me. Good luck to the winner Ben
