For those of you who are faily new to CAC or haven't popped in for a while and not sure how to enter the contest or who for that matter Brandy is and don't really feel like hunting through this very long thread to find out, here's the info.

Brandy is our mascot. Here she is: http://www.canadianaquariumconnection.com/jb_images/msct.jpg. I know, she's not a fish but this cute little furry friend (actually member Namor's dog) is wearing her own CAC baseball cap and has her own net. (And no, the picture in this post doesn't count as finding her. :nah: ).


To participate in the contest, if you spot her in a post of mine (CACAdmin) you must:

send a Private Message Private on the forum to CACAdmin (Administrator) stating the URL OR Title of the thread where the CAC mascot photo is currently posted by CACAdmin (excluding the one(s) posted in threads in the Contests Section of the Forum)AND
a chose a numbered envelope (# 1 through #10 inclusive)Members are limited to only one guess per 24 hour period. Example: Your PM to me could read: Brandy is here: (Title or URL of the thread)I pick envelope # (whatever number you chose 1-10)The first person to find her and guess and a number of an envelope containing a prize wins.

Still have questions? I'll be happy to answer them and clear up any confusion.

Now go look for Brandy. You never know when or where she'll appear. Best of luck to everyone! :Smile:

Remember, you don't have to be the first to find Brandy, just the first one who guesses an envelope number which contains a prize. :yes:

Note: This was the last of the treasures to be found for now as we've decided to give Brandy a vacation.

^^and a well earned rest it is, too!

Thanks Jay, for all the thought and time you put into "our" forum, from the contests to the crosswords - all while doing mighty battle with the hackers and spammers seemingly determined to bring the house down. It's a great community, and that has a lot to do with your efforts. Merci.

OK, a little info about the upcoming treasure hunt. There will be 3 Christmas stockings hung on the mantle and when Brandy finds a "Treasure", she will place it in one of the stockings. So you will have to spot Brandy and then guess which stocking she put the "treasure" in. :wink:

Brandy will start here "Christmas Treasure Hunt" on December 1st. :HappyReindeer:More details will be posted later.
