Alright, here's the deal.
Your pals at Imperial Center are tearing the dropcloths off of the office furniture, giving everything a nice coating of GLEEN! and generally cleaning up the showrooms, hangars, and boutiques for - you guessed it - a grand reopening.
After months of privation and selling off children to the slavers to cover the rent*, Imperial Center is going back in business!
What does this mean to you? Well, obviously you can stock up on all those lovely urinal cakes again.
It also means that you can win stuff. What kind of stuff? I don't know yet, but its gonna be damn cool new stuff, that's what.
So, here's the deal. I have picked 5 numbers between 1 and 1000. You have three chances to pick the right numbers. That can either be three separate posts or three numbers posted on on post. The number of the contest entries is three.
DON'T TOUCH THAT RABBIT!!!
Anyways, back to the contest.
You can pick, as I've mentioned, three numbers. IF one of those numbers is a dead-on match to those that have been picked, you win the "big" prize. If your number is five away from a winning number, you win a not-so-big-but-still cool prize. If there is a tie for one number, the tied number under the winning number gets priority (for an example: if 1015 was a winning number and someone had 1010 and another had 1020, the 1010 would be the winner as it was "closest without going over" to paraphrase Bob Barker).
That's it. Don't overcomplicate it. Pick three numbers. If you pick more than three, all your entries are invalidated. That means, don't be using all your damn logins. YOU as in your own self, gets three picks. If there is a numerical tie (two or more people with the same number) we'll go to a run-off or something.
Contest ends like next Sunday at the meeting or something. There, I'm done.
The End.
Move along now. Nothing to see here.
* No, I never said they were our children.

Contest results
Thanks to those of you who entered and for giving as good of guesses as you did.
One person got a number dead on. The number chosen was 7. The other numbers were 41, 322, 667, and 850.
This left a few people very close to the actual number, including one tie. So, let's break down the winners, their entries, and their prizes.
Grand Prize Winner: JR (7)
Prize: Crusader XX-777 Droid Frigate
Value: 1,800,000 ICs
Runners-up: Japheth (42), Liquid & Peacemaker (666)
Prize (Japheth): YZ-900 Freighter
Value: 450,000 ICs
Prize (Liquid & Peacemaker): YV-330 Light Freighter
Value: 270,000 ICs
Honorable mention: JMac (5), Mercenery (9), Shazam (37)
Prize (JMac & Mercenery): V-19 Torrent starfighter
Value: 90,000 ICs
Prize (Shazam): Gozanti Cruiser
Value: 220,000
Close, but still a cigar prize: Rema (4, 664)
Prize: RFP-12 Republic Fighter Pod
Value: 59,000 ICs
Basically, anyone within the stated range got a prize, even those who were in the bracket in which someone won a grand prize. As for Rema, after being close not once, but twice, he gets something too.
Thanks again to everyone that entered and I hope to see the rest of you at the store. ----------------------- PRF/GEN Fury/VEA/TADATH/VE [SCP][PoC][SotE:HC][SotE:VEA][IOC]
