Postcard #18: The Bitter End
What happened to Dantom del Byondo? What kind of time warp sent the last postcard nearly a month into the future? Alas, we may never know. Such are the mysteries of the universe.
What we do know is that our hero's incredible journey has come to an end. He fought valianty, going down in a blaze of glory to protect the world from the evil bike monkey. Oh, wait. That must have been the strange dream I had last night.
In reality, Dantom del Byondo seems to be back home already, alive and well. Someone claiming to be DDB has already posted a blog entry about one of his harrowing adventures.
Day 31: Kadoka, SD to Okaton, SD
(click to enlarge)
Nobody guessed the destination in the entire last month, so a consolation point goes to Strawgate for Murdo, SD (~9 miles).
So that's it, the contest is over. For our "Lost Postcard" bonus competition, our winners are:
Trip Mileage: Exophus (1686 - exactly right, wow!)
Last Day: Exophus (31, exactly right again - were you there?)
Lost Postcard Delay: Danial.Beta (address number wrong)
Current Standings
Winners can pick the prizes of their choice, or suggest alternate prizes of similar value if you like. Current prize choices include:
Post your prize choices here, or privately if you wish. If there's interest, I could probably whip up a Dantom del Byondo logo specifically for this to go on certain BYOND Store merchandise, similar to the Mysteries T-shirts that went out. I will try not to delay so long if people are interested in this. ;)
Thanks for the memories, Dantom del Byondo!

Yeah, I've been meaning to update those images with the new logo (I just need to make a version of the image with the right dimensions for the sticker). Shouldn't be too hard, hopefully later today.

Sure! Any of the membership items can be donated, so we'll go ahead and give one to Sharp on your behalf.

Ok, cool. I'll see what I can whip up this week. The BYOND logo has to be the bike wheels or something like that...
For those wanting BYOND Store items, you'll probably want to update your address and let us know that it's current.

#11 SuperSaiyanGokuX:
Hmmm, 1.5 points to spend...
How about a black oval sticker, and two magnets (one of each color)
I'd go for the membership time, but I think I'll just pay for it when the time comes... After all, a very large part of being a member for me is simply helping out BYOND's finances, plus, I know I'll keep renewing, whereas I might never get around to buying some of the snazzy BYOND merch...lol Might as well get it when offered...
Thanks, guys!

Heh, I would like one of the Dantom del Byondo shirts, but I am not sure how that would add up.

#9 Aaiko:
Eight points... There's nothing I really want... But since the prize isn't BYOND 4.0, I'll go ahead and use the points.
I would be very much interested in a Dantom del Byondo shirt (if it is black).
Also, I have got to get my dog that dog shirt. Haha.
Two points: Small Orange on White Dog T-Shirt
Two points: Medium Orange on Hooded Sweatshirt (wish it was a darker color)
I will spend the other four when I get news about the Dantom del Byondo shirt.

Can we donate memberships with the points?
I like to take a full year with 2 full points and than Add 20/2 file hosting/bandwidth with the two consolation points(combined to make 1 full point) and if I can I like to donate a full year membership to the BYOND key "Sharp". If I can't just add on another year. Thanks.

I'd like the four months of membership, 3 and 1.
thanks!!

#6 Danial.Beta:
Hmmm, the choice is hard on this one. I think I would like a sticker, but I would really like the new atom on the sticker. I have been needing a good sticker to liven up my laptop, and the blue atom on black would look great...
If you can't do that, then I guess I would take the 3 months, as nothing else there really does anything for me. Now if I would have got two full points... I would totally be rocking a blue atom shirt... I might just buy one on my own, like I have been telling myself I would for a while now.

Thanks :D

3 months BYOND membership, please, and thanks a bunch!
I wonder what Aaiko will get with all his points. :)

#2 Exophus:
I knew I was right. ^_^ I'll take the one year BYOND membership for the two full points then another one month BYOND membership for that consolation point that is left over. Thanks a lot!
