Are you a blufr?

Just because you lost your book deal in a flurry of scandal and accusation doesn’t mean you can’t still lie, cheat, and write your way to fame and fortune. The Morning News and blufr have teamed up to turn your half-truths (or truths, it’s up to you) into big winnings—in this case, a $100 gift certificate to Amazon.com.

We’re sorry, but this contest is now closed.

How it Works

Write your own bluf and send it to us. (If you’re not sure what this means, go to blufr and play a few rounds. You’ll get the idea.) We’ll take the best entries and turn them loose at blufr. Whichever bluf fools the most people after two weeks of live play will be declared the winner. Really, that’s all there is to it. Or, in blufr terms: way!

Enter as many times as you like; all entries must be received by midnight (ET) Monday, October 9.

(Due to the volume of submissions, TMN can only respond to those entrants selected to be published on blufr.)

Please note: By submitting a bluf, you are agreeing to the blufr Terms of Use.


TODAY’S FEATURE

The 11:11 to Penn Station, or Exodus

The Long Island Railroad is New York’s lifeline in the summer—a fleet of rescue vehicles destined for the beach. For some, though, it’s also a means to find freedom. EMILY MEG WEINSTEIN reports from every station down the line.
