Find the Nugget Competition - Saturday August 10th 2013 @ 8PM

[farmeroz]

yeah now iv got to go back and find all those posts i actually want to read... if i can find them again..

dissapointed about the mixup tho

 

[Pauly]

Yep well done to Salla.

No dilemma Matt first person to find a nugget wins. Would be different if both nuggets were found but only one found so all good in my books.

 

[Bez]

Well done Salla!

 

[AU Fever]

OK guys we have a slight dilema

Salla has found the Gold Nugget here https://www.prospectingaustralia.com/forum/viewtopic.php?pid=2892#p2892, However this was the Nugget left behind from a previous FTN competition that I simply forgot to remove.

Tonight's Gold Nugget was actually planted here https://www.prospectingaustralia.com/forum/viewtopic.php?pid=9369#p9369

Given the circumstances I believe the right thing to do is honour Salla's find, the Gold Nugget was still found fair and square as a result of searching through countless topics and posts.

This obviously highlights a problem, so for all future FTN competitions I will use a slightly different image.

Congratulations Salla, and my apologies to everyone for the mess up. It definitely wasn't intentional.

Nugget.

Yep, salla found it fair n square. Congrats salla! Looks like I'll have to dig some holes tomorrow to find mine

Au

 

[Nugget]

Yeah I'm really sorry about the stuff up guys. I guess in a way you all had twice the change of finding it though

 

[farmeroz]

Yeah well done Salla

I thought it would have been a different image of a nugget, didnt realise that there was actually previous FTN comps

 

[HeadsUp]

all that coffee i massaged in to my mouse scrolling finger didnt work 8.(


gonna ring up for a masseuse to come n massage my right arm and

+ bit of superglue for my eyeballs and i will be fine


thanks nugget . appreciate the work and energy that you put into it

 

[Salla]

Thx guys! I hope no one will be angry about this. As you can see the hint was posted at 8.58 and my "found post" was at 8.59 so I only saw the hint after finding the "wrong nugget", it wasn't intentional at all....

 

[Dozer]

Well done Salla. So close I had just opened that page. If only I scrolled faster.
Ready for the next comp.

Yeah I noticed the time difference there Salla, you won fair and square so well done.

Now lets never speak of this again :lol:

 

[garnethawkins]

I swear i will NEVER complain about not knowing where to look out in the gold fields again! At least in the gold fields Im in the "ballpark" :lol:
GOD MY EYES HURT! 8.(

 

[Nugget]

We might have to mix it up for the next one I think. To give everyone's eyes a rest lol.

 

[XIV]

so can we plz open (new posts) as i think i have scrolled through 150+ old ones lol

 

[heavymetal]

Well that's a bit bodgy !!! All you had to do was click on the link next to where Walnliz won it last time and it took you straight to the nugget !!!!

 

[farmeroz]

I rekon change the picture of the nugget each time aswell or find the pointer or detector or find the pan ?

It was definitely fun, and very fair Salla, but your banned from the next one LOL.

I understand your frustration and I did consider it a possibility, but I just have to trust it didn't happen. I guess when it comes down to it, everyone had an equal chance of finding either of the nuggets. And in all fairness, out of the all competitions and giveaways we've run to date, this is the first stuff up we've encountered.
