New Vinyl Collective contest and interview

[scottheisel]

Yeah, guessing the colors was the hard part. I spent a good 15 minutes debating whether or not that box set was from Virgil's personal collection or the store inventory. Argh!

[ps]

I'll ask again, any idea when the contest ends?

Is the winner the first person who gets them all correct? Because I imagine more than one person will get them right.

Even with guessing the colors, though? There's definitely a pretty big number of possibilities once you factor in color.

[ps]

Yeah I guess you're right.... Although each record only has a couple variations if it was on color.

[scottheisel]

I'm no math major, but that means there could be dozens if not hundreds of permutations. Because you have to get every single record's color right (I'm betting, since it seemed like all of us figured out the 11 records).

[ps]

You're right, my head might explode if I try to figure out the possibilities. And I should try to get some work done today.

[faith]

im not even trying. lol

Way to be Faith...if you don't try, you can't fail...well played.

we will announce the winnner on July 31st. I wish all of you good luck. This ended up being a really fun contest. I am blown away by the response and the amount of time some people put into this.

thanks everybody.

[lokithelion]

what about the people who got it really fast? Why should the slow pokes win

[Guest Admin]

it gives everyone a chance to get their answers in. I am an equal opportunist! The first person to get everything answered correctly will win though so don't worry.

Everything including colors?

I think that you should take everyone who got every single thing right and then draw from that pool of people for the overall winner. There was no rule anywhere saying that the first person in won.

[lokithelion]

Scott some of us are really really poor and need this. Hush yo self.

[Guest Admin]

I have a feeling that the picking of the colored vinyl will separate one true winner.

[lokithelion]

wow. i'm f*cked then.

[brennan]

the obvious answer is to break into virgil's house.... this is a hundred bucks we're talking about!

No the obvious answer is to be disappointed. And I hope to someday live in your magic world where a 100 bucks isn't a big deal.

[hickey]

I think he was saying $100 is a big deal.

I hope I picked the right colors then.

Yeah i always sucked at those. I don't even see 11 recognizable records in there, only 9.. the rest are just top spine

[skumbucket]

i got eleven, including the pink one and not the sliver behind the tree one because i'm sure that would be impossible. but i still haven't properly id'd the tree one despite two trips through the entire v/c store listings.
