To keep I-AA's magazine on their toes AGS has a new challenge, post the biggest error in the book. No, predictions and players who ended up not playing are not mistakes. Stuff like wrong helmets with teams, wrong names with pictures, etc. are the type of errors for this challenge. So grab your I-AA.org Magazine 2005 Fall Preview and find the biggest error to win.

What do you win?

1) The winner selected by the judges will have two tickets waiting in their name for the Super Bowl of I-AA, the I-AA National Championship Game in Chattanooga, TN on December 16, 2005....:eek:

2) Free access to the massive tailgating party across the street from the stadium…xprost2x

3) And......and.....a free introduction and bull session with non-other than I-AA’s very own Ralph Wallace! :bow:

Don't post your findings here, you might give someone else a chance to win your prize.

The winner will be announced October 5, 2005. GOOD LUCK!!!! ;)

Do you want separate e-mails for each mistake, or all in one? Or is it one mistake per person, pick what you think is the biggest error?

buckp has asked me to answer questions because he is evacuating due to Ritabitch.

Send in as many entries as you can (small errors are appreciated too so the mag will be better in the future). Judging will be on the biggest error. Members submitting the same biggest error will be put in a drawing.

If you haven't bought the mag yet you can do so in time for the challenge here:

"Biggest" certainly can be subjective. But I thought "size matters" :D

No it's not the size of the ship it's the motion of the ocean just like your MRS has been telling you for years ngineer. :D :D :D

Also paraphrased as "It's not the size of the dog in the fight; it's the size of the fight in the dog." :D

Looks like this contest is a clunker. :( There have been only a couple responses. Enter before the deadline.

Then that means I have a ch-ch-ch-chance! :D

good point, i read through most of it (and did notice small errors) before the "contest" started, now I am too lazy to read back through it and pick out the small stuff

I do not think I will win but I just submitted two errors that I found. They were on the same page and involved the same team! :eek:

One per mistake or two in one email, doesn't matter. You get credit for each mistake you find.

NEW ADDITION TO THE CHALLENGE:

I'll personally give a prize to whomever can find the most.

Don't tell me......one of your black and white lettered 'I-AA' shirts? ;)

Hey buckp, are you extending the contest period?

You're in the driver's seat Ralph......:nod: I would have given 'Hansel' the prizes a long time ago....:eek:

(I'm trying to get a pheasant hunt out of him.) ;)

Hey Ralph--originally the contest deadline was Oct. 5. I thought it might have been extended, but to when. Is it over? Who won and what was the 'biggest' mistake???

I forgot to enter, but now that it's over, I'll speculate that the biggest error was on page 15 where the Northeastern capsule lists them as the Widcats and shows the wrong helmet.
