Mini: Fan the Flame
A MINI Countryman was placed on a slope of 15% hanging only on a thick rope. Under the rope a bunsen burner was placed. Once you have liked the Facebook page you can watch the live construction, which was build on the parking lot of the Brussels Motorshow and remote ignite the flame from the campaign website. If your flame is the one that burns the rope, you win the MINI countryman.

i like it somehow... but i question the feasibility, as in it wont take much time to burn that rope..
busy.
We tested the rope beforhand. Intensively. it will take several 1000 burns to break (can't tell you more since the game is still on)
Interesting idea.
Like the idea. But what is the connection between mini and flame?
Nice gimmick.
THERE'S NO HEAVIER BURDEN THAN A GREAT POTENTIAL
This rope will never break...

The rope will break, trust me. every 2000 fans the temperature of the flame goes up. Top temperature is 1200 degrees celcius, and that is enough to melt metal.
From the day after tomorrow I estimate (by the rise of number of fans) things will spice up.

The link between mini and a flame : a burning passion (for driving).
Awesome.
Good idea

Hadrons - you seem uptight. Let ZeroCool give you some lovin'
IM me for marriage.
Cool
GertSimpson, How is it calculated, how many time my fire will go on? Is it limited for every player? Can i use it only once or it can be refueled?

Every player can "flame" as much as he or she wants. But you have to wait in a waiting line. Currently there are over 250 concurrent players at every point in tie throughout the day. So that's a long line (times 20 seconds per player). But you can cut the line by challenging people higher up the chain with trivia questions about mini.
The case movie is on youtube now :
