Signed Tintin clapperboard (Empire Magazine Contest winner)

#1 · Posted: 26 May 2009 03:22

On May 26, Empire Magazine is scheduled to announce the winner of the signed Tintin Clapperboard contest. The prize is the clapperboard used throughout filming of the upcoming Tintin movie, and is signed by Steven Spielberg. Entrants had to answer 20 difficult Spielberg movie questions and then be drawn from all other entrants.

Does anybody have any information about who won?

Tonight I Googled "Tintin Clapperboard" in attempt to find info about the contest winner. Instead, to my dismay, I discovered someone had posted answers to 19 of the questions a month prior to the contest deadline! All of the answers online agree with my own hard-researched answers (relatively speaking). For those of you interested, here is link: Contest Spoiler

I wish there were a way to circumvent people posting answers to contest questions online. Now I am a sore loser! or as Haddock would say... Vandals! Cro-Magnon! Hooligans! Gallows fodder! Sea-gherkins!!! Numbskulls!

I know two wrongs don't make a right, but... would deliberately posting the wrong answers all over the internet narrow down the odds? ;-)

And let me add to that... Clapperboard collectors! Netiquette neglecters! Tintin test tricksters!
