Miata Mailing List: October 1999, Message #202

sponsored by

Granted I entered the contest really, really early --- within the first day or so of it being announced.

But I remember very clearly reading a disclaimer stating that only one entry per person was allowed and that multiple entries would disqualify that person. I would say that you should feel fortunate that Gary is allowing you to stay in the contest by deleting those blatantly duplicate entries for you.

I'm kind of disappointed because the number of entries has now gone down from approx. 9,500 to 8,300. I was thinking it was pretty cool that close to 10,000 individual people had come across the contest and taken the time to enter. Oh, well -- 8,300 Miata-loving people is still pretty cool.

Good luck to everyone in the contest!
