It used to be mail the newspaper company with the subject as contest and then the answer on it's own in the subject text and a week later all correct answerers would be put in a hat and 3 would be drawn out to win

That sounds right up until putting answers in a hat. If I remember right, the first three people with correct answer won the first three prizes.

People had to IGM the Newspaper account. Which is our problem at the moment as only GoldenEye has access to that.

I have talked to GoldenEye about the old contests before and will do so again.

I already talked to him about this a few hours ago.

Giving away steel isn't an issue, now there's simply the way in which we can collect answers.

So any contest ideas are welcome, if something good pops up, we might give it a go.

Well if i remember right it was never the first 3 it was a random 3... otherwise those who are online straight away when the paper is released get a advantage and others who arrive late won't bohter actually paying attention to the paper as they know they can't possibly win as they are a few hours late!
