Internet Business Guide Announces Winners
If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!
After some delay due to illness striking down both Marcus and his wife, the winners of The Internet Business Guide’s Contest have been announced.
Reward Rebel donated 5,000 ECs, which has been won by Amy Lilley Designs, and a copy of Reward Rebel LOOT goes to sezwho.multiply.com
I have sent congratulations to Amy via Entrecard, however, I have no contact details yet for sezwho, so if you’re reading this… contact me via details at top right of this page.
A rather nice surprise was discovering that I had won the DVD “Building An Internet Business From Scratch” by Marcus Hochstadt, a One Buck Wiki page at SiteHoppin Blog and a 10 card account at Send Out Cards so I’m stoked!
Congratulations to all the winners, and commiserations to those who weren’t lucky on this occasion. There’ll always be the next contest!

School Days ID Parade Winner Announced
To my astonishment, the contest received a total of 86 entries. My thanks to everyone who participated — your comments really made it fun.
More than 35 entries incorrectly identified student number 4! But a total of 9 (nine) eagle-eyed contestants correctly identified student number 28 as Reward Rebel, aged 11 years.
Correct answers were received from:
- Foolsville 2.0
- Random Musings of a Deranged Soul
- Entrecard Favorites
- Healthy Lifestyle Blogzine
- The Health & Wellness Post
- The Antisocial
- Bohol Beach Resorts Philippines
- Biyahilo – Tourist Attractions
- Up The Hill Gang (Blogspot Version)
Each correct entry was written on a slip of paper, twice folded, placed in a hat, and I asked my partner, Ken, to dip his hand in the hat and select the winner.
Congratulations Foolsville 2.0! You were totally right to stick to your guns with your original selection!
You have won the first contest I’ve ever organised, and it’s my pleasure to ask you to let me know whether you’d prefer to receive an Amazon Gift Voucher for $25 or 5,000 Entrecard Credits.
The remaining 8 correct entries will each receive 125 Entrecard Credits, as their share of the runners-up prize.
It’s all over… boo hoo. I’ve enjoyed this experience so much, but only because all of you have made it such a pleasure.

School Days ID Parade UPDATE
I’ve introduced a couple of minor changes to the master plan…
- Comments: It’s been a delight reading your entries to the contest and, because I can see no way that anyone could possibly gain an advantage from them, I’ve decided to open Comments for everyone’s enjoyment.
- Number of Entries Allowed: You may enter once on behalf of each individual blog or website you manage.*
[* This replaces the guideline restricting entry to one per person, email address, blog or IP address, which I now realize doesn’t entirely add up!]
So, come on, those of you who’ve been stomping your feet in frustration! Now, you’re able to enter as many times as the size of your virtual real estate allows!
Don’t forget that your website gains a link when you comment here, because the Wordpress Plug-ins ‘Do Follow’ and ‘Comment Luv‘ are activated, so you’ll benefit just by entering the contest… win or lose!
Go on, give it your best shot!

School Days ID Parade
I’ve noticed that the chorus of bird song audible from the garden has been growing louder as Spring announces her arrival. This year is passing at such breakneck speed, it’s a little unnerving!
We anticipate our future and contemplate our past, but too often we neglect spending enough time enjoying the present.
As life progresses, time passes more and more quickly, and before we’re aware, it’s arrived, and been and gone. There are no dress rehearsals, so it’s important to identify what we want from life, and how we aim to accomplish it.
When I was at school I didn’t appreciate the luxury of education or the opportunity that it afforded. I was always too eager to grow up, to be a teenager and do what teenagers did — have fun, enjoying a carefree life of excitement, adventure and romance.
Here’s a squint at a sample of the squares I was so keen to escape…
A first prize of 5,000 Entrecard Credits [ECs] or $25 Amazon Gift Token is offered to the person to correctly identify which one of these grotesques is our very own Reward Rebel, aged 11 years.
This is how I look these days — easy-peasy, or what?
One outright winner will be drawn from the correct entries and awarded 5,000 ECs or $25 Amazon Gift Token. A further 1,000 ECs will be divided between the remaining correct entries. So, everyone answering correctly wins ECs — whether it’s 100 or 1,000 depends on how many people have a keen eye!
Of course, if the winner has a website, it automatically receives a generous serving of publicity from Reward Rebel, washed down with a glass of effervescent link love.
To enter, simply refer to the indexed outline of the photo below, ascertain the ID number of the girl you think is me, and enter your answer in a comment on this post. Comments will remain in moderation until the contest has closed, and the winners declared.
- All entries must be received by midnight EST on Monday, 31 March.
- Winners will be announced on Tuesday, 1st April.
- Entry is restricted to one per person, email address, blog or IP address.
Good luck!

Competition Ain’t Happening
There are so many contests ‘live’ at the moment, and for a number of reasons, I wouldn’t be giving you my best if I were to forge ahead, just to present any kind of contest. It’s got to be worthwhile, and fun for everyone, or I won’t do it at all.
When I originally posted about running a contest, I’d had an idea, which I thought was perfect, but I’ve since completely gone off that one, which means it’s back to the drawing board. But not immediately, because I’m spread too thin at the moment to do it justice.
Once again, I apologise for stringing you along, — my original intention wasn’t to lead you nowhere.
