Maybe morale, bringing the Spyderco community together, or positive publicity. I don't know.Evil D wrote:So Spyderco hand selected some runners up? Like I said what's the point of making a calendar just to give them all away for free? I noticed the 4 people saying they got free ones but also noticed the rest of us who outnumber them who didn't. If it were a clerical error I would think the majority would side with those who did get them and only a few being missed. If scores of people came in saying they DID get one then maybe I'd feel left out.
Whatever Spyderco's reasons, I know many friends of mine had fun participating, and I'm happy Spyderco took the time to run the contest.
I know I enjoyed viewing all the beautiful and creative photographs.
Spreading joy shouldn't need too much justification. :D
