Lately, the stars have been aligning and I was able to acquire this awesome chip set. What better way to celebrate than to run a give-away contest?
Solve this ridiculously long word puzzle below and win a free (4) chip sample set!
Time, Event, Place, and Person [complete sentence... not necessarily in that order]
*** To solve this word puzzle, you have to find out a bit of history of these chips - what these chips are, what event they were used in, when they were used, and a famous person associated with these chips.
Yes, the word puzzle will seem like WTF at first, and I don’t expect anyone to solve it at first. I will reveal more and more clues that will guide people towards the solution. The clues may include filling in vowels (wheel of fortune style) on an irregular basis, depending on how close or how clueless people are.
The more information you gather earlier on, the easier it will be to solve this when certain letters are filled in. All information is available on the web, you just have to know where to look. The solution is a complete sentence and pretty straightforward. It will become easier as clues are revealed. There aren't very many of these chips out there (Only 2000 total were ever made and I have most of them) and the (4) chip sample set has very good collector's value - i.e. the winner will not be disappointed.
Contest Rules:
1) Contest will run until I see the first valid post containing the right answer. All proposed solutions / guesses should be posted here in this thread.
2) ONLY ONE GUESS PER DAY! All edited posts are void (including first guess), and guesses after the first one of the day are void. If your second guess of the day is correct and someone else copies it as their first entry, then that someone else wins.
3) Discussions are encouraged. Clue people in if you find out something. Sharing is caring and may end up leading you to the solution. Let’s keep this fun!
4) Clues will be given on an irregular basis to help guide towards the answer, depending on how close or clueless people are.
5) PCF members with a join date prior to 9/9/15 can participate, including international members. However, there is at least one member here who I believe knows about these chips intimately (I have already told you about this). In the spirit of this contest, please save it for the others!
