It's the internet. Have you used it before?

Y'all mad. Stop trippin.

If you don't like the contest, don't get a ticket. DON'T FEED THE HYPE MACHINE.

I'm sure Mark could care less.

Bobafreak · 02-24-2011, 05:39 PM

Mark Arcenal here, just wanted to drop in and let you guys know that I wasn't even there. I was busy making money and not crying over dumb shit like you guys here. Actin like the silliest members I've come to know and love buying all my shit, paying for this shrimp dinner I'm eating off some naked bitch.

You know I hella stuck that ass after I finished my shrimp too... wait what? Skyline wtf you talking about son, I can't hear you down there on top of all this money stupids.

Stay fresh, buy my shit. fatlace, illest, nike, pac man.

act like you know.

chumps.

Fatlace · 02-25-2011, 02:50 AM

^^ damn don't know where that came from shrimp is definitely delicious. Scott wouldn't know cause he's allergic to seafood or some shit. To each his own, I suppose.

Btw Nice roof swap, car looked proper at wekfest.

Obviously I wouldn't buy a ticket because I can't qualify, not because I don't like it.

I still think the car, and the idea of the contest are dope.

Pardon me for giving a fuck.

That post wasn't directed at you specifically.

Let's just see how this whole thing plays out. To my knowledge no rules or fine print has even been laid out.

Don't give up so easily.

Ok.

No it doesn't look like they have. I see the line about having to be present or not has been removed. Let's hope all gets figured out in everyone's favor.

LOL wait you were there!!! I dunno I don't know what anyone looks like. But mainly it's my impression of you, doing an impression of Dave Chappelle's cribs episode. minus dinosaur eggs.

Dave Chappelle's is my hero. He hangs out at FTC Skateboarding alot with my good friend kent who owns the joint. I guess they chronic up quite a bit. I was there at wekfest from 730-1pm then 5pm-7pm. Im not a huge fan of 20k people staring at each other.

We're getting all the final details from our lawyer this Monday or Tuesday. It's taking longer than expected.

Word.

Maybe it's a sign the fad is finally dying

Walperstyle · 01-24-2012, 03:42 PM

so who wants to start the next greatest thing with me? I'm sure we can figure something out.

***FaLKoN240*** · 01-24-2012, 03:58 PM

They're not giving it away because there's a lot of legal implications and problems they had in giving away a car.

Different states have different rules and fees to pay, along with selling "raffle" tickets and selling them to people across the country/world is a whole other issue.

Either way you all would be mad.

derux · 01-24-2012, 04:01 PM

I would be more happy if the price was a little lower then 20 cause then the hako would have a friend.

I'd like to know these details. Elaborate please.

Fatlace · 01-24-2012, 04:27 PM

HI,

We've tried to figure out ways to do the contest but with too many restrictions and posting bonds in states like Florida and New York and limiting the event to the USA only, we're unable to move forward with the Skyline Giveway. It just isn't fair for the people around the world that wanted to be a part of this contest.

Thanks to everyone who helped us out on this giveaway and everyone who supported us on the project.

Walperstyle · 01-24-2012, 04:38 PM

Edited. Don't want to get banned for questioning. mark's probably go more pull here.

Best of luck mark, hope you find some direction in your company.

Fatlace · 01-24-2012, 04:45 PM

Come by our office and we can share with you how our operation works. Selling or keeping the car doesnt necessarily mean someone is balling or not balling. It's an extra expense we dont need at the moment. There's no profit in the sale of the skyline as we're hoping it goes to a good home. Actually if it goes to someone who isnt going to cut it up is better as its an immaculate example of what a restored Kenmeri should be.

This 'fairness' Is coming off as an excuse to get some coin back once you realized you were not as 'baller' as once thought.

I mean really, you could have used this properly as a mass marketing, still excluded some of the few states that can't apply, and win big on promotional benefits, but didn't.

what is the direction of your company?

sorry for asking, I'm a Canadian that wouldn't see any benefit to begin with, but some people are probably wondering.

yokotas13 · 01-24-2012, 06:08 PM

you are right. it is a GREAT example, except the ugly ass hype beast fatlace stickers on the side.

I lump you with the illest crowd. a bunch of bandwagon lovers that hop on the next cool trend

but i cant really knock it. make that money man. just have a plan when people pass you over in a few years

slowvia · 01-25-2012, 07:37 PM

Hmm... Didnt 9K just give away a Skyline successfully?

Tantwoforty · 01-26-2012, 05:01 AM

Do a contest for the chance to buy it, then charge them like $20.

Some advice for the future...figure all that shit out FIRST then let the internets know about a giveaway. Doing it the way you did just makes you look bad. You live and you learn. Car still looks fresh.
