As a promotion for the upcoming TI 84 Plus CE, TI has started a contest called "Calculate Your Color," in which you take a personality quiz to determine "which new TI 84 Plus CE hue suits you" and get entered in a drawing to win a TI 84 Plus CE.

TI posted about the contest on their Facebook page earlier today, and their website front page has been updated to promote the contest. Go check it out and maybe even win a CE!

Yep I saw this earlier on Cemetech and it seems like a nice contest.

Unfortunately, however, it's only for residents of United States and the only Canadians who can participate must live in BC or Ontario. Not that I expected Quebec to be able to participate due to its overly strict and retarded contest laws (same reason why any CodeWalrus contest offering physical or money prizes will not allow Quebec residents despite two of the admins living there), but still it's kinda restrictive. >.<


I got Radical Red myself, though.

Nah I can't. But the government instated restrictions to contests so that those contests won't hurt their monopoly on the quebec gambling industry. The government runs Loto-Quebec, which is Quebec's publicly-ran lottery company, and they see any form of competition as bad. As a result, when someone wins a Nintendo contest, for example, then I think Nintendo has to give Loto-Quebec a certain percentage of the prize value as a compensation. Also, language laws requires international contests to have a copy of their rules in French in order to be legal in Quebec.

Because of these restrictions, many companies single out Quebec from contests that they organize.

But yeah, it's kind of weird they only open the sweepstakes to BC and Ontario, but not the rest of Canada (excluding Quebec).

I have the feeling that TI-France is almost like a separate entity when it comes to companies and do their own things to a certain extent. I think they are more likely to create a France-only contest in the future.

I have to wonder if there isn't some catch to this contest preventing pretty much any combination except one to be eligible to win? That seems fishy.
