I am going to hold a contest from time to time to give away free stuff on RS. Currently here is the contest and so far everyone who has messaged me has gotten it wrong.
When was the internet created, And by whom/what was it created?
I want the year it was initially create and how it got started or who started it.
To submit answers add me on msn:
h_jolly at hot male dot come
Currently the prize is the first account I get once I open the website back up in a few mins. So get to googling people this is an EASY way to compete and bring fun to the forums again.
Also on a second note anyone who is wanting to buy mills I sell at EXTREMELY cheap prices. If you have an online account you no longer use like prize rebel, steam account, Etc. It doesn't matter, hit me up with offers I am only doing this for fun to give back to the community I used to be a full time participant of. So why go risk getting scammed by others when you can come to me. Just look at my reputation. I am untarnished and 100% legit and the only thing you get when you do business with me is one word "Satisfaction."

The contest is now over it was won by Kirk.
The answer was 1957. And the person/people who created it was U.S Defense it started out as a way for the usa to send data encryption globally that turned into packet sharing and what we now call the internet.
He got a level 80 something with d legs and some other stuff on him.
The next contest starts now!
Be the first person to tell me.
Where was the first recorded tornado in what is now known as the United States?
You must provide the year along with the location. This is gonna be a hard one

n July 1643 Governor John Winthrop described a sort of wind gust that could have possibly been one of the first recorded tornadoes in history. Winthrop, who was ever conscious of the weather, recorded that there was a sudden gust in northeastern Massachusetts and costal New Hampshire
Its POSSIBLY, and it was also in new hampshire

If you cannot contribute to the thread peacefully like everyone else I am going to have to ask that you not flame/spam my posts. This is here for fun and now you are no longer included.
As for the winning person it was "Renown Traitor." The correct answer was Essex County, Massachusetts on July 5, 1643. He was the first person to send me the correct answer. Thank you all for playing.
As far as the nest contest goes I will start it as soon as I get his prize to him. Currently I do not think he is online so I am not sure when this will be.
If anyone would still like to make gp message me on msn we can work something out.
-
I am going to go ahead and start the new contest.
What is the only animal that can see both ultra-violet and infra-red light?
You know the drill. I will NOT be checking my pm's so I suggest you use msn for this contest because I am going to be playing cod4.
Do not SPAM answers on msn or on the forums. Any forum answer posted right or wrong will void you in the contest. Msn only folks. Think hard and submit an answer. I will allow one answer per person for every map change so you can submit one answer roughly ever 20-30 minutes.
Good Luck!
As soon as a winner is found I will open the website up to get them their prize.
This will be the LAST of the competition for free stuff untill I start getting business actually selling. Only one person has bought anything so far and that was Liam (Strhmemm) I think thats his TTG name. So trade in your steam accounts or mail me some cash or do me a simple online favor to earn some GP. I am doing this out of the kindness of my heart so the freebies will stop untill I get business.

Yes you are block. Anyone who is on my block list is not allowed to compete sorry. If you are on my block list you got there for a reason. If you would like to know why you are blocked it was for annoying the hell out of me over Benalator even after I told you the account wasn't mine anymore and I would not help recover it. Unfortunately Power people who go onto my block list RARELY ever come off so you are going to have to sit back and be chill for a while and prove to me if I unblock you then you will be a reasonable person and listen to me when I tell you something. I have a certain way I conduct business. If you don't like my ways you can deal with someone else. And if you flame the post with some rant about how it was unfair I didn't help you recover the account then you sure as hell aren't coming off the list. So just sit back and chill and be a cool cat there are second chances you just have to prove you are worthy of one.
Now that it was taken care of on to the FUN STUFF!
The winner is Pyrokitty and the answer was: Goldfish. the website will be going up shortly so I can give you your prize.
Here is the next question and the answering will NOT begin untill 9:00pm my time. any answers before that are null and void. It is 8:36pm now.
What is the word/phrase tatooed on both brothers hands in the movie "The Boondock Saints?"
Good Luck!

Ok ok here we go. Congrats to Renown Traitor on claiming his prize along with Pyro who just won another account. The prizes will get better as the night goes on.
As for my rules here they are:
1. Not completely reading any of my posts results in automatic Null and Void.
2. Answering on the forums nulls you from the competition.
3. Answering before the appropriated time Nulls you also.
4. Poor conduct as a result of a prize you did not like or getting beat on answering will NOT be tolerated and you will be kicked PERMANENTLY!
Now on to the fun stuff!
Next question will be an easy one.
Name the company that bought out Walther Fire Arms!
I am an avid gun collector and love Walter and the company that bought them out so this is a fairly easy question from me.
Answer any time MSN only!

I am going to go ahead and unblock you. A spot just opened up due to Renown Traitor getting kicked for his poor accusations and UNsportsman like conduct.
Let me make this clear!
Prizes are random! If you don't like your prize then feel free to get the hell out. I am doing this for fun. If you fuss and complain and add me to your sig saying you didn't get what you want I WILL bar you from the contest. Pyro got 2 very low accounts and you don't see him crying. That is because he is a good sport and he continues to play for fun!
So feel free to stay out of my thread and go back to your mindless posting on the forums. I did this as a way to have fun and stir the forums back up. If I didn't do this you would still be sitting there doing absolutely nothing wasting your life away. So you go back and have yourself a grand ole time Renown while everyone else plays and has fun!
Sorry everyone had to hear that but I just don't like dealing with immature children who throw a tantrum when they don't get their way.
-
reowned stfu please
-
Actually if you read closly on the email i said "I dont think its fair to give me an account with all 1 stats, but oh well you dont have to give me a new one, i will just keep playing and trying to get that lvl 95" ......... That is poor sportsmanship?
-
Why even write something like that in your sig, either way you meant it, it dissed the contest.
-
Ok for the next contest.
This is a riddle.
Often held but never touched, always wet but never rusts, often bites but seldom bit, to use me well you must have wit.
What am I?
Answer any time on msn have fun!!
-
Contest is now over. The answer was "Tounge." Congrats to dylan on the win. Please make sure to read my sig fully it has been updated. There might be a contest tomorrow. DO NOT ASK ME TO DO ONE! If you bug me to do one or ask when it will be I will bar you for the entire next contest. Nothing more I hate then free loaders sitting around like vultures trying to smooch off me.
