2016 Match the Pen to the Penmaker

mbroberg · Nov 8, 2015

Welcome to the 2016 Pen / Penmaker Match-Up Contest. As the name implies, all contestants need to do is look at a photo of a pen and identify the member who made it from the list provided. Simple!

In addition to the Universal Contest Rules, the contest rules are as follows:

Here is how this contest works. On February 14, 2016 photos of 100 pens will be posted and a list of 100 names will be provided. Each of the pens pictured was made by someone on the list and posted somewhere on the site during the year 2015. Your job is to match the pen with its maker. Each correct entry (All 100 pens matched to the correct penmaker) will be assigned a number. At the conclusion of the contest, on February 21st, 2015 I will go to Random.org and randomize the list of numbers 5 times. The entrants whose number corresponds with the 1<sup>st</sup>, 2<sup>nd</sup> & 3<sup>rd</sup> number on the list produced by Random.org will win 1<sup>st</sup>, 2<sup>nd</sup> or 3<sup>rd</sup> place accordingly.
[FONT=&quot]
There is a limit of one entry per member. An Entry Form will be provided. The Entry Form will have numbered spaces. Place a name from the list of names in the space that corresponds to the number on the photo of the pen you believe that person made. Save the form and attach the form to an email. Send the email to Pen2Penmaker@gmail.com.

EXAMPLE:
1 - Peter Penmaker
2 - Billy Ballpoint
3 - Roxie Rollerball
4 - Nellie Nib

In the above example the entrant thinks pen #1 was made by Peter Penmaker, pen #2 was made by Billy Ballpoint, and so on.

As I receive and open the emails I will send a reply acknowledging that I received the email or notifying that I am disqualifying the entry along with the reason the entry is being disqualified. Emails received that do not contain the required information or that do not follow the format described will be disqualified. Time permitting, entries that are disqualified may be corrected by the contestant and resubmitted. No entries will be accepted that arrive in my mailbox after the stated conclusion of the contest.
The Prizes:

1st Place - TBD
2nd Place - TBD
3rd Place - TBD
