RickieB, I never got the "confirmed" PM, even though I sent the request to you via the time period. Did you get my PM?
i dont think you got my PM either. i think the contest deadline should be extended to the 25th with Ct being down and all
I didn't receive a "confirmed" PM either. Perhaps Rickie should post a list of all the people who entered. I know that the PMs were working because I have sent and received several from various members including Rickie during the last week. I just never received an PM specifically confirmed me as a contest participant. But, I'm sure he got them.
