BpB Sig Contest [CONGRATS Zemljanin]

Post by owenshooter »

Win 1 Free Premium Membership!!
Participate In the Bullet-Proof Bandits Black History Month Signature Contest!!!


Image

In honour of black history month, the Bullet-Proof Bandits are flying the above special signature recognizing many past and present prominent members of the Black Community. In conjunction with this special month long clan signature, we are running a contest open to any member of Conquer Club to win a FREE Premium Membership. The contest is simple and direct. Name as many of the prominent people within our sig as you can, and submit your efforts. The person/persons with the most correct names within their submission will then be entered into a random drawing, if necessary, to decide who wins the Premium Membership. So, be careful who you share your research with, because you may be the only person that has figured out one, if not all of the tougher faces!!

Time to dust off your encyclopedia, wikipedia, dictionary and search engines, and figure out who the faces are within our clan sig and submit your entry as soon as you can. Also, feel free to fly the BpB sig on your profile as a show of respect for this important month, and to spread the word that it is Black History Month!!

What is black history month?
Black History Month is a remembrance of important people and events in the history of the African diaspora. It is celebrated annually in the United States and Canada in the month of February, while in the UK it is held in the month of October.

The remembrance was originated in 1926 by historian Carter G. Woodson as "Negro History Week". Woodson chose the second week of February because it marked the birthdays of two Americans who greatly influenced the lives and social condition of African Americans: former President Abraham Lincoln and abolitionist Frederick Douglass.

Contest:Name the most prominent people within our special Black History Month Signature, and the person/persons with the most correct names within their submission will then be entered into a random drawing, if necessary, to decide who wins the Premium Membership.

Submissions:Please submit your entry using the below list of BpB members. Simply fill in the name of the prominent person each BpB member has selected for their slot in the sig, next to the appropriate members name. Then submit the below completed list to either owenshooter or jbrettlip, and wait for the results at the end of the month. Remember, it is not necessary to name ALL of the prominent persons within our sig, but the more names you submit, the better your chances are for winning:

if everyone just guesses in the thread, it pretty much diminishes an individuals chance to win premium... *shaking my head in disbelief at whitey*... again, good luck!!-0

Great initiative to owenshooter and the BPB.

(I can't believe I just posted that.)

EDIT: By the way, I removed those answers from owen's post so he didn't have to, and I've stickied the thread.

i think its because of the whole "giving away a free year of premium" thing, and its not really racist, as there was a "calling all aussies" thread stickied for about 5 months...

anyways, i don't know what threads you think are more deserving... but i will agree that maybe this is in the wrong place... i would think callouts is better, but hey, i'm sure you'll get more attention here.


ps. i'm gonna win, so it doesn't matter

how is callouts a better place for a free premium contest?

Well interestingly we have had a lot of answers in already. Some, in all honesty, are pretty low in numbers, but some reasonably high.

I think the highest number of correct recognitions is 13 or 14 so there is plenty of time to increase on that score. Especially as a couple of those with that many correct have missed some pretty easy pictures.

Good luck to everyone who is having a go!

Yeah. Sorry 'bout that. I'm not too well-versed in sarcasm.
