2012 LAVA/OpenG NIWeek BBQ - Door Prizes!


jgcode

Recommended Posts

It's that time of year again. What will the next installment of the LAVA/OpenG BBQ bring? One thing is for sure - door prize galore!

Past prizes have included (just to name a few): home-made creations, gift-cards, tablets, books, Ipods, LabVIEW goodness, software and even a plane-ride.

We accept anything - so feel free to be creative! By donating a prize you and your company will receive free advertising in this thread.

But wait, it doesn't stop there! When your donation is drawn on the night, you may take center stage and embrace fame thrust upon on you by the loving crowd who are anxious to have their ticket drawn from Crelf's stunningly good-looking akubra.

So what are you waiting for? Check out the cool prizes below (knowing there will be more added to this thread as NIWeek approaches). If you would like to donate (please do, we really appreciate the LAVA-love) feel free to add a prize below or PM me with the details and I'll do it.

If you haven't already get your 2012 LAVA/OpenG BBQ tickets here!

The wonderful Fabiola from Delacor has done it again by getting her hands on a limited edition of the A Software Engineering Approach to LabVIEW.

This is one of Steve Watt's (one of the authors) last copy that he graciously gave to Fab.

It is one of the ones that actually came out looking good (as there have been known to have been some publishing issues in the past).

This text has also be signed by Steve Watts - that's one highly regarded John Hancock.

Thanks for supporting the LabVIEW Community Fab!

Hi

So thanks to a very very kind "insider" I am in a position to offer a very rare door prize to a lucky LAVA BBQ attendee: a LabVIEW iPhone hard plastic cover. This is for a 3G / 3GS model.

Cheers

Chris Roebuck

CLA , CTA and all round nice guy :)

Chris, you might wish to have a chat with your transcriber (although, you wish to tell them not to transcribe the chat ;) ).

Thinking about it further (why?), Tom Cruise was also in Mission: Impossible. You could probably just use a TC mask of that style to make the winner look like TC. Of course, if you're a proponent of the original series, you could use makeup to make the winner look like Martin Landau, but I somehow think that might be less popular.

I should probably stop typing.

No, really.

LabVIEW Champion Jeff Bohrer (featured here and here) aka the Spinning 8-Ball will be donating the BBQ's second mystery prize...

Whilst Jeff cannot attend in person, the wonderful Fab will be bringing the gift.

What will it be? Who knows (I don't)

Come along to find out :thumbup1:

index.php?app=core&module=attach&section=attach&attach_rel_module=post&attach_id=467

Showering us with further gifts, Jeff imparts some wisdom for the LAVA masses before leaving:

All shall be well and all shall be well and all manner of things shall be well" -Julian

Last Year, Brian Powell was the lucky recipient of Bolder Software's Door Prize. He won the fabulous Kaossilator. Congratulations Brian!

In keeping with tradition, we like to appeal to one's creativity as well as their technical prowess. Bolder Software is donating this totally analog door prize, a set of three small yet powerful lenses: the Fisheye, Telephoto, and Macro/Wide Angle Cell Phone Lenses from Photojojo. These finely constructed lenses transform your standard phone photos into wide, up-close, super zoomed and wonderfully warped wonders.

Good Luck to all. We are looking forward to another great event at Scholz' and some great BBQ!
