Giganews Contest Props Page

2008 marks the official 10 year anniversary of Giganews! To celebrate, we are renting out a club in Paris, stocking the bar, buying door prizes, preparing the food, warming up the DJ, and inviting 200 of our closest friends.

You might be asking yourself, how do I get invited to the Usenet party of the millennium?

The guest list will be comprised of winners of a photo and video contest for Giganews customers. Winners will only receive tickets to the event and must pay for their own hotel and travel expenses. Here’s how to enter:

  1. Print any of the images (“props”) located on this page.
  2. Take a photo or video of one of the printed props somewhere in your hometown – the more interesting, the better!

    (Natural landmarks and famous monuments or buildings are obvious choices, but anything is fair game. Remember, the focus is on uniqueness and creativity.)
  3. Post your video or photo on the binary newsgroup giganews.contest.
    The "giganews.contest" newsgroup will be moderated, so please keep this in mind when posting. No inappropriate entries will be allowed.
  4. The giganews.contest newsgroup is only available on Giganews’ news servers. By posting your entry to giganews.contest you will be automatically identified by Giganews through your Giganews username and entered into the contest.
  5. You may submit multiple pictures or videos, but you will only receive credit for one entry.
  6. Winners will be randomly selected from the pool of entries and sent an invitation with a special code which you will use to reserve your spot on the guest list.

Giganews will always receive high marks from me. I personally will never propose or suggest to a friend any Usenet newsgroups company other than Giganews.
