Hey 'hobby', I just wanted to let you know that I have to send my PC to HP for repair and will probably be without it for at least ten days....joy. But, I still want to be included in May's competion if that is possible. I'll be checking in from time to time from a friends PC. After all, I can't let you guys get too far ahead.
peace out my brothers from another mother.... _________________ Good Deals: Death@Hand, funkydopenloven, StaticMind, Slamscaper, PorscheXboxter

hey mate,
funny you mention that.. Im just about to annouce the changes..
This is how the competitions will work..
From now on you all WON'T need to make a post in the COMPETITION FORUMS. Reason is because im going to allow anyone to win whether they make a post or not..
There are alot of guys adding stuff and arent even in the competitions.. From now on whoever has the highest points every month will win a prize and second will also win a prize..
(well as long as ive got prizes left to giveaway).

Forahobby,
Yea I like this idea, I sorta feel sorry for RealMcCloy becuase he put in one hell of an effort in the current competition.
Another rule I thought of might be worth considering...
There could be a stipulation that a person can only win a prize every 2nd competition, that way you wouldn't have just 1 or 2 people always getting prizes. I know it would suck in the point that if you have 1 or 2 really active members that deserve the prizes, but then again it might deter members away from trying.
The main idea of this new rule that you've put in I believe is to make it a bit fairer on competitors, so maybe this suggestion of mine might be kind of fair aswell.
Anyways, post here or msg me with your thoughts mate...

Hey guys, I like both ideas... It would be nice for other people to get recognition too. I have an unfair advantage as I am a lazy retired 37 year old kid at heart with nuthin better to do except marvel over technology...he he. If one or two people were consistently winning, it would stink for the people that don't have a large amount of time to put into the site. Catch you all later. _________________ Good Deals: Death@Hand, funkydopenloven, StaticMind, Slamscaper, PorscheXboxter

Hehe, ok asmunch, it's all yours
I probably won't be trying as hard this month because my studies have increased from 1 full day and 3 half days, to 3 full days and 2 half days. Ofcourse I'll still be adding downloads etc. like normal, just not really try to win this time.
No idea what giveaways will be available this month, but like every other competition Xbox-Hq has had, it will be worth it...
Good luck to all competitors for the competition starting very soon.

Does anyone know when the points will be reset for the month of May? Or, are the May submissions already being calculated and will just show upon reset? _________________ Good Deals: Death@Hand, funkydopenloven, StaticMind, Slamscaper, PorscheXboxter

Thanks DJB....appreciate it. I was hoping to throw up some news before it becomes 'history', so I will probably just go ahead and put it up. I haven't been on the site for a few days as I was busy restoring my PC. Wanted to just do a recovery after my power supply failure so I could make sure nothing else was wrong with it. Toward the end of the powersupply failure I was getting a ton of crashes not too mention memory leaks. _________________ Good Deals: Death@Hand, funkydopenloven, StaticMind, Slamscaper, PorscheXboxter
