Title: MILAVIA 5 Year Anniversary (Contest)
Post by: Webmaster on January 03, 2007, 02:52:04 AM
I am delighted to let you know that MILAVIA has celebrated its 5 year anniversary. On January 1st 2002, I launched the first public version of the website. Although the site underwent a big design changes since, I think it is without doubt an occasion to celebrate these 5 years of MILAVIA. To celebrate it I decided to give away a nice prize to one of our forum members, even though the forum was launched much later.

I have not yet decided on the prize yet, because the military aviation subject is so broad, I think it would be nice if I can present the winner with something that is of interest to him or her. To win, you have to answer the following question:

How many pages (htm, php, txt, doc) does the MILAVIA website count?

Rules:

- Please estimate a number, do not use any software tools of any kind to count. If I see any trace of the use of bots in my logs I will cancel the competition. I don't think counting them one by one yourself is a good idea either, make a nice educated guess.
- You must be a forum member to participate or be subscribed to the newsletter, registered/subscribed on or before Jan 1st, 2007.
- The person closest to the actual count is the winner.
- You have to send me your answer by e-mail, use 'MILAVIA 5 Year Anniversary Contest' as subject and don't forget to mention your forum name.
- Let me know your interest(s) within military aviation (can be anything).
- If you win, you have to provide me with your real name and valid postal address in order to get your prize.
- Closing date Mar 31st, 2007.
- All pages, including picture and under construction pages that are accessible.


Actual count today is 5521 pages +/- 25, excluding the forum.

And the winner is......................................................................

Globetrotter

His estimate was 6000 pages, which we will soon reach I am convinced. Good job!

I will contact you about your prize!
