| So I finally became a part of the team.... Tell me about this contest that Larue runs? How does it work, what are the prizes, and anything else I need to know. Thanks |

I found the thread..... What are the rules and do you just post a random three digit number or what? When you post just post your number and nothing else, if you post 329 and then type that it is your lucky number and shit like that you get DQ'd There will be a report by MND that lists all the numbers taken so far, read it and choose your number, IF you dupe a number and it is pulled then say 3 people chose the same number they will pick a ball from 1,2 and 3, say the number 2 comes up then the 2nd person to choose that number wins. I am pretty sure this is right, if not someone will correct it. I never duped a number but have been duped, I have never won either and probably never will but it makes the first week of the month very interesting and ML does a good service with this drawing in my book, he doesn't have to but he chooses to, plus, he has the same attitude I do, balls to the wall and fuck everyone else

From Mark himself in the January contest:
This year to enter ...
you must first download ––-> "mfingar's Marvelous Screensaver" ... ... then download ––––> "mfingar's Monthly Calend-AR" ... ... not done yet and you can skip this one, but you'd be a fool if you don't sign yourself up for our every-once-in-a-long-while ––-> "Team LaRue Newsletter". If you're all done with that, then you may proceed ... The caveat ?? No purchase is required, but you gotta have a star and be a Team Member ... ... or non-Team Members must send (by First Class Mail) your number , along with your handwritten copy (in red ink) of the Constitution of These United States. Don't laugh, as we did get one of those last month. What's the prize gonna include ??? A Storm case jam-packed with all the best ... 1.) One of our new DMR-16 (TM) Complete LaRue Stealth Upper. 2.) One of our stupendously successful LT-104 scope mounts. Heh, heh, they ain't copied our World-Renowned repeatability yet, and they never will. 3.) Two Magpul Window P-Mags. 4.) Our new Urban Dark Earth (UDE) Furniture Kit. Sweet !!! 5.) LT sling 6.) The Storm Case. 7.) Troy front and rear backup irons 8.) And whatever else we feel like jamming in. Here are the rules ... and we reserve the right to add to them as prudence dictates ... Bloencustoms threw this rules list together for us ... thanks again BC. Contest rules: 1: Only Team Members are eligible, or see above. 2: Select a number from 1 to 1,000, and post it. 3: Only one post per person. 4: Posting more than once = disqualification. 5: Posting one face along with different fonts now encouraged !!. 6: Editing your post = disqualification. 7: Font, color, or size matters not. In the event more than one person selects the same number, the random number generator will select a number from a pool equaling the number of duplicate posts. For example: If 3 members select the same number, the generator will be asked to select a number from 1 to 3. If the number is 2, the second person to post wins. If the number is 1, the first person to post wins. In the event the generator selects a number that was not picked by a member, the generator will select another number, until it lands on a number that was picked by one or more members. And don't bitch at us, but for various State Dept. regs and their ITAR reasons, we will not pick nor ship to someone outside the U.S. So, we won't be sending goods to a winner OCONUS, say with a Hong Kong address. We love all you foreign ARFcommers, but at the same time, we hate the look of the inside of a prison. So, without further ado ... I suggest you closely follow the instructions or Mr. mnd will ferret you out and sling your sorry butts over the side. Good luck ... ... and from all of us here at Team LaRue |

Thanks. You don't really have to download those, ML posted that as a joke; the screensaver and monthly calendars are pretty badass though. Quoted:
