GEEEEE!!!

This is soooo exciting :bowns:

[doyouwanttoplay]

Will Dave and Kiera be signing it? ;)

[bluediamond]

ya never know ;)

:lalala:
dave.

[Little Bird]

Eh...maybe not. It is a collectors item after all. Wouldn't want to ruin it or devalue it. I know you're joking but you gave me an idea!

How about Dave and I get a pic together and give that away as a competition. I can just see the applications flying in for that one. Hee Hee ;) :P :P

[Little Bird]

By the way....Just wanted to make a special mention to Kyle.



He came up with all the questions which, let's face it, aren't easy and are really excellent.

So ..... THANK YOU KYLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!. You've been excellent and we really appreciate all the time and work that went into this competition!

[Little Bird]

FOR EVERYONE THAT HAS ENTERED OR WILL BE ENTERING
Please make sure you include your Jewel Kilcher Forum username in ALL entries!!!

[Maaz]

I agree that many of the questions were challenging. I'd say if you think you know Jewel real well, then you could probably answer half of them.

I think it was fun to take, whether I win anything or not.

We will be confirming usernames with winners. If you cannot provide a username, then you cannot win.

You must be a member before your date of entry. It would be unfair to existing members otherwise.

Also a quick reminder of the closing date which is 4th November (next Friday)

[Sasafrass452]

So, when exactly will the winner be chosen & notified?

[Little Bird]

We will announce the winner on Tuesday November 8th. Winners will be notified on the same day

Ok, but on the contest page it says:
Ist, 2nd, 3rd Prizes will be sent by First class post on November 1st.

Wouldn't the winners receive it by the 8th? It doesn't make sense to receive the prize before the winners are even notified.

[Little Bird]

Oh that is wrong...Ahem...DAVE!!!!!
That's coz the original closing date we set was October 31st but we just wanted to give people a bit more time as some members may be on holiday this week etc. So we changed the date before launch but Dave must have forgotten to change that bit.

[bluediamond]

Its done, i changed it yesterday as soon as i knew. See! im on the ball (most of the time)

:lalala:
dave.

[Sasafrass452]

Ah, ok.... So, what are the other prizes?

[Little Bird]

Well what is says on the page is still correct...'to be finalised' as we have a couple of ideas for runner up prizes.

[april]

I think I submitted my answers twice. I thought there was an error the first time I answered the questions so I did it again and I'm still not sure they have been submitted correctly as there is no confirmation????

Good questions! They make ya think. :lovejkf:

[WhatWouldJewelDo]

umm..... I think the runner up prizes should be a signed picture of me..... CUZ IM FAMOUS, BABY!



just kidding. i really wanted to say that. for some random reason.

[kjm030584]

[last_dance_rodeo]

the runner up prize should be a pic of dave in his apron hahahaha and oh autograph it hehehe i'm just kidding dave hmmmm maybe cindywats has some kind of picture she'd like to donate

Congratulations Bobby, Chris and Shawn!!!

[last_dance_rodeo]

thanks i feel so special *cries and waves to his massive fan base*

[lordassmonkey]

Awesome for me I won something

[Neptune]

Hey Dave, I checked my answers with the correct answers that you published and my score was 21 too!!! So I'm together with Chris and Shaun! Please check it.

Henrique

[Sasafrass452]

Where are the answers posted? I can't find them.

ETA: Never mind, just saw the link....

[bluediamond]

Henrique

You got 20/27

Your incorrect ones were no.8, no.9, no.15, no.17, no.22, no.23 and no.25

I think you may have thought you had no.22 right as it was close to the correct answer.

sorry

dave.

[Neptune]

Forget it Dave, I checked again and my score was 20 points... my mistake: chocolate / firearms
:(
but that's ok... maybe next time...

[Sasafrass452]

I'm confused about this question:

What song takes place in a public restroom?
Louisa and Her Blue Guitar
2 Find U
Fade Away
Who Will Save Your Soul

I could swear it was WWSYS, & I never even heard of Fade Away(the supposed correct answer). Was it really Fade Away, or am I confusing the lyrics with the video? I distinctly remember the WWSYS video since it was the first time I heard Jewel & that song made me a fan. So what was my score, just out of curiosity?

[kjm030584]

yeah... that was a specially designed question..

the correct answer is Fade Away, because it takes place in a Kmart's bathroom. And I didn't ask about the video, otherwise it would be WWSYS.

[kjm030584]

hey, that worked out really well, we should definitely do something like that again.

[Maaz]

What was my score? I think 19/27 if I remember all the answers I put, but I'm not sure.

Maaz

[WhatWouldJewelDo]

I'm sooooo happy!!! yayy!!!!! im gonna go out and buy one of those poster frames. The odd thing was that I was expecting a "I'm sorry, thank you for entering" e-mail from Dave. I was really iffy on a lot of my answers cause its been a while since i've read Chasing Down The Dawn, and I usually just flip to random poems in A night without armor when i get bored. yayy... Im soo happy!!!

I've sent you a PM with the details of your answers against the correct ones.

Sorry but you did just get 20. Which is still a very high score!

Maybe next time you'll win!

[Neptune]

Yes, I know! I said that my mistake was : chocolate / firearms ...
When I checked my answers for the first time, I thought that my answer to the question 22 was correct. When I checked again, I saw that I put "Lingerie, jewelery and chocolates", and this was wrong... the correct answer is "Lingerie, jewelery and firearms"... so I did 20 points.

Congratulations to Bobby, and for you all of JKF! This was a very nice, funny and hard quiz!!!

[bluediamond]

love your avatar Neptune

think i may get me a mars one.

:lalala:
dave

ps, why is your nic neptune? please tell.

[Maaz]

I haven't got a confirmation on how many I got right. Maybe the moderators accidently overlooked my post. I'm guessing 19 but I'm not sure.

Also, I'm not disputing any answers nor do I care that I didn't win. (This was a fun competition, prize or no prize), but I had some questions about some of the answers.

Number 4 - Where does Jewel mention this? I remembered that they used to make Eskimo ice cream in Alaska, so that's why I chose Candy Corn. Obviously, the other 2 choices aren't sweet.

Number 8 - I chose "empty bottles, dirty clothing, wet towels." This sounds like Jewel, at least when she was with Steve Poltz. Apparently, this has changed since she was dating Ty, but once again, I was wondering where the answer came from.

Number 22 - I chose the last one because I seem to remember that Ty rides bulls (apparently not Jewel!), and I've seen pictures of Jewel with Jessica Simpson, and Jewel having her dog George dressed up. I think that first choice is hilarious, but once again, I was wondering where the answer "Lingerie, jewelery, and firearms" came from?

Number 25 - When did she become addicated to Jelly Bellies? Just curious!

Number 26 - When you say publishing company, were you referring to HarperCollins? If not, what were you referring to, and what does her snaggle-tooth have to do with it?

Maaz

[WhatWouldJewelDo]

most of the answers are in "Revealing Jewel: An Intimate Portrait from Family and Friends" and Chasing Down The Dawn and A Night Without Amor.

[Maaz]

Well that explains it! I was missing a book (Revealing Jewel: An Intimate Portrait from Family and Friends). I had the other 2 (Jewel's own books).

Maaz

[last_dance_rodeo]

dave what are the runner up prizes?

[bluediamond]

runners up prizes will be on there way and are a secret, but we would like you to post a pic on here when you get them k.

Maaz - I know Bobby has answered your post, but Kyle set all the questions - you got 20 out of 27

I agree it would be a good idea if Kyle could quote' some of the answers because i for one didnt have a clue about some of the things, and i found the whole thing very interesting.

If anyone would like to know there score just email me and i will let them know.

post a pic of me with my prize eh? hmmmmmm ok will do

[last_dance_rodeo]

maybe i'll post a pic of me in my apron i think people would like that, what do you say dave?

[kjm030584]

aww crap... okay... but most of those questions that you had trouble with came from "Revealing Jewel" They have trivia questions in there.

Her publishing company is called wigley tooth.

(I'll finish this post after my classes.)

[Maaz]

So, are you going to ever finish the post? hehe. Anyway, thanks for the information. I didn't realize that Jewel had her own publishing company. I guess 20/27 isn't too bad considering I never read the book.
