Nah.. Pekka doesn't count... he has 6500 plus... and he is the boss....

The link is PekkaM and I remember him in the early day.. however I never see him again... the only reason I remember this was so many memebers confused with the God father...

[ArcticEOS]

*registers a new name* oops! Did I just give away my secret? :p I have the big brother 1.4 so no need :) Cool giveaway though.

[zacker]

[lakiluno]

[Tin Man]

I forgot to mention that you have to be 18 to qualify..... :D :D :D

[lakiluno]

see...thats just mean :(

anyway, I don't have much of a chance with over 1000 posts in 7 months :D

[Metgolf]

I have fewer posts (but I read alot of posts) but I registered about a year ago.

[Davinor]

I read plently - know litle ;)

[saravrose]

he he.. so I guess Ronald won't be participating here..LOL.. or me either for that matter.. congratulations to whoever wins.

The lens is only worth winning if the third tin was focused one. If focus was on the first, second or fourth tinny then the lens sucks badly ;-)

It's incisive comments like that that enabled my to rack up my current impressive score and thus disqualify myself.

Don't worry I took the picture of each tin before I finish the contain liquid.... and I think I was ready for the third on that one. :D :D

[blue_max]

I don't understand the rules. I haven't read all the posts, but doubt it would help.

I haven't posted one sensible word (knowingly) so feel I shoud win, whatever is on offer.

I will share it with all the other forum members if the prize is sweets.

Mine's a pint - gotta go.

[xmetal2001]

It feels like I've been lurking for quite some time, don't know when i registered though, I guess I'll find out as soon as I post this.

[boboy888]

I'll play, hopefully I'll win.

Hey Tin Man instead of giving the 50 to a sole winner. Have this lense travel aroud the world as a POTN loaner lense for people to use. People would just pay for the shipping or hand it to the next person if possible and use it for a month and on to the next person.Have a gallery of your lense travel adventure with list of user comment and logs that haved used it?

[pat3rol]

I guess I'll throw my hat in the ring

Great idea! The official POTN Fantastic Plastic traveling the world. Sadly, the lens is too small to stick stickers onto about what country/place it has been. It would be so funny if it looked like luggage after months of traveling.

Someone needs to do this with a 300mm 2.8L IS or something. ;)

[lakiluno]

ummmm

Posting here not to win contest; but trying to get to the magic "500th post" earning the ability to post on my own instead of asking a mod :)
Almost there...

[Thenethiel]

I'm highly skilled at being somewhere for a long time without actually contributing anything, so I'll give this a shot:p

[Zepher]

cool contest, but I don't think I'll win.

[Jitan]

Posting to see how many posts I actually have. :D

[Freddeh]

I'm not even going to post. I wouldn't want to win a lens like that, when someone else needs it an incredible lot more than me. Yeah right!

[20DNewbie]

LMBO, 3 posts! I'm thinking you may stand a chance at winning.

[Spiral Photo]

Well, I don't know where I rank, but I'm in. :)

There's no point in posting anymore, i think we have a winner!

Although i am confused by the rules, is it least posts then oldest? or oldest then least posts?
