Competition: Guess the Release Date of Gibson's next novel
Competition closed for new entries - January 25, 2006 - due to information on Amazon

This competition this time is to guess the release date of Gibson's next novel.

Rules: Each member gets one entry. Guess the official release date of Gibson's next novel (US edition). Only one person per release date; i.e. if you guess the same date as someone else your entry is invalid. Any posts with an "Edited by" stamp will be deemed void. Likewise deleting your post and reposting another will disqualify you from the competition. (I've got a memory like an elephant, so don't even think about trying it)

In the event of a tie (i.e. 2 members have eached guessed a date one day away from the release date), the date before the release date wins (because I like optimists)


And the prize is:

An unsigned UK first edition first press hardcover copy of Douglas Coupland's Eleanor Rigby.

Have fun!
