  • About 15 years ago, I happened to stumble upon an online promotional contest for the movie 2012. It was a contest of logic games that took place 1 at a time over 4 or 5 weeks, and it just so happened to be week 1 still. Seeing as I used to be a big nerd (I still am, but I used to, too), I decided to give it a shot. Once the contest was over, I promptly forgot about it until I got a random phone call a couple months later.

    Turns out, I ended up placing in the top 12, which meant I had won a PS3 and some crappy Sony video camera. It also meant that I was moving on to phas two of the contrst. Phase two required the contestants to make a video and get elected by the internet as the winner, for a chance at a vacation to Mexico. I wasn’t keen on doing all that, so I phoned it in for the video. All I wanted was the PS3, honestly.
