Oscar Contest!

Rico · January 25, 2011, 11:14:28 AM

Per Joby's suggestion, we are going to have an Oscar contest for this year. Basically, email me your predictions for the winners to the selected categories below. The person with the most correct winners picked will get a special prize pack (some actions figures, and other goodies). Your email needs to be sent prior to the start of the Academy Awards show on Feb. 27th. In the event of a tie, I will do a dice roll to pick the winner. Make sure to pick only one winner from each of the seven categories below.

Send emails to: treksf@gmail.com
Subject: Oscars 2010

A few more days gang for the contest. I'm actually getting kind of excited for this years Oscars. One hitch though, I'm hoping I can watch it streaming online since after Saturday I won't have a TV at the apartment. I'm guessing it will stream live online too.
