Contest Time!

This contest is for a Hundreds T-shirt in large, x-large, or xx-large size--your choice. It will be my final decision as to which of the two designs and color shirt to send the winner.

It is simple. Be the 12th Dojo member to PM me with the subject heading "I want a T-shirt", and you are the winner. The body of the PM is unimportant, but keep it short. Each member has only one try at this, so strategy, timing, and luck are important. If you are #12, I will reply to you and ask for your mailing address, T-shirt size, etc.

This contest is open to any Dojo member worldwide.

Good luck.

Peace, maka

I'm assuming multiple entries are a no? (y'know, before I flood your email inbox!)

As I posted in the rules, each member has only one try at this.

A couple of hours into this, and no winner yet. As I said, this is a contest of strategy, timing, and luck.

I jumped in far too early as well, but at least my foolishness will enable someone else to win. So long as a Dojo member walks away happy, we're all winners, here
