Andy07 Posted January 14, 2007 Share Posted January 14, 2007 My local shopping centre is holding a contest this saturday to win a brand new Renault Megane. Any tips for standing up for long periods or getting people to accidently take their hands off the car, because its gonna be mine :whistle: Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/529890-hands-on-the-car-contest/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
_bobcat_ Veteran Posted January 14, 2007 Veteran Share Posted January 14, 2007 Take a stink bomb and something to plug up your nose. Or some itching powder.

Edrick Smith Posted January 14, 2007 Share Posted January 14, 2007 Take a stink bomb and something to plug up your nose. Or just eat a bunch of hot spicy things right before.

Asdfgav Posted January 14, 2007 Share Posted January 14, 2007 How about not entering? I mean if the prize was a car which is half decent, then it may be worth a go. However, for a Renault Megane it isn't worth the X amount of hours you will spend touching it! But to be serious, if you are gunna try to win it, at least do it fairly. There is no tip except don't let go. Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/529890-hands-on-the-car-contest/#findComment-588226699 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew Lyle Global Moderator Posted January 14, 2007 Global Moderator Share Posted January 14, 2007 i would do what the guy in that 70's show did. take a tube and attach it to your wiener, then put it to a bottle taped onto your leg. that way you won't need to **** yourself when standing Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/529890-hands-on-the-car-contest/#findComment-588226701 Share on other sites More sharing options...

samg Posted January 15, 2007 Share Posted January 15, 2007 can only a certain amount of people enter? If not, get all of your mates to come along and make it as tight as possible, but make sure they give you more space. That way people will either slip off or leave cos its annoying. Cant see that breaking rules unless people start pushing other peopel off.

gnuman Posted January 15, 2007 Share Posted January 15, 2007 Cut your hands off and get prosthetics and leave them on the car FTW! :) There is nowhere that says you have to be attached to your hands.

ninjamunky Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 Will you get breaks together or something? You should get some of those caffeine pills and take them haha. From what you've said it sounds like it's going to be whoever has the biggest balls lol... you should use the bathroom before hand probably... maybe even not eat for like 12 hours before. Sure you'll be hungry, but you won't have to go to the bathroom lol Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/529890-hands-on-the-car-contest/#findComment-588230424 Share on other sites More sharing options...
