Yeah, I'm doing it. Giving away a full year of TOTALFARK to the one Farker who can beat the beautiful Kate Stelnick's feat of finishing the 6lb Burger at Denny's Beer Barrel Pub in Clearfield, PA. Here's the deal:
1. First of all, this contest is open to Any and All REGISTERED Farkers, both regular and TOTALFARKers alike.
2. You're responsible for getting your ass here and back, as well as footing the full bill for the burger should you not finish it in Denny's alotted 3 hour limit. I'm not footing any travel/lodging/burger/etc. bills, nor am I liable for anything other than the TOTALFARK subscription prize.
3. Let it be known that my little contest has no official affiliation with Denny's Beer Barrel Pub. Hell, I've only ever been there like four times in my life, even though I more or less grew up in it's proverbial backyard. I will say this about the joint: Good Place To Eat, whether you're trying the burger or not. And no, Denny didn't pay me to say that, either...
4. Should you finish the burger in under 2 hours and 53 minutes (Kate's Time, thanks for the clarification, Rsquared18), just email a picture of you with your prize package and Denny himself, which means you'll need to bring your own Digital Camera of choice. That will verify it for me, since I can always check The Regress to validate who did what in what time. Also, it's so I have a picture of the Winner to put here on my Blog.
5. This is a ONE SHOT DEAL. Once the first Farker claims his or her prize, no more freebies from TemperedEdge.
6. The reason you're here: THE PRIZE: ONE FULL PAID YEAR OF TOTALFARK In the event that a TOTALFARKer wins, I'll pay for a one full year extension on your account. No BS, just TF. The prize will be provided as soon as I have confirmation that you meet the above requirements.
7. PLEASE OH PLEASE don't FARK my poor little blog! It's on Tripod (I'm sure Firefox told you about the pop-ups) and I don't have much bandwidth, so if you're thinking of sending this to friends, please only send to friends who you feel might take this SERIOUSLY.
If you have any questions, need directions to Denny's (I can get you there from ANYWHERE), or just want to tell me I'm insane for doing this, shoot me an email to [the_last_steward_of_gondor][at][yahoo.com] (ATTN FARK MODS/ADMINS: Please contact me, as I am in need of a not-so-traditional method of providing said prize, though I will be paying for it 100% out of my own pocket)

Final Bit of Hooey: I'm not doing this for attention, I'm just doing it because hey - It ain't often that anything in my neck of the woods (litterally) ever gets mentioned on ANY major news/link site, let alone FARK, and I'd like to give FARKers an extra incentive to come to the Moshannon Valley and try their hand at Denny's Challange. Even if you don't make it, you'll deffinately have a good time while you're there, and your buddies/girlfriends/whatever will enjoy some good food while they watch. This is no BS: Denny's gots good eats. And again, I wasn't paid for any of this.
Oh yeah. This stupid simple page was made in Quanta+ 3.2 within Mandrake Linux 10.0 Official. I say this because I like Open Source Software, and want to promote it. That is all. LEARN TO USE LINUX, PEOPLE!!!
