Last night this heckler tried to mess up my act. So I says to him my father Amos died laughing, oaf. (avoiding the easy MFA).

Well, THAT movie sucked! It would have been better if Q realized that James jury-rigs zero jet Zambonis.

Quaratino realized that Joshua jilted Zachary Jeremiah zones.
 
We interrupt this contest to remind you that we are having an even more awesome contest in the sports section.

Carry on.

Thread is now locked for score tallying. It will reopen when tallys are completed and winner's names are announced.

Okay, here's how I did the tallying.

Each entry was worth 1 point per day. A like added 1 point, a Funny or Love added 2 points and I even gave a point out for an Informative. On Friday, I counted double for the hard letters and also doubled up the like/love/funny scores. So without further ado...here's our winners and the order in which they will choose their gifts.

  1. With 8 points... Hylian!
  2. 9 points... Mathias!
  3. 10 points... stienman!
  4. 10 points + winning coin flip... Sparhawk!
  5. 11 points... checkeredhat!
  6. 16 points... bhamv3!
  7. 16 points + winning coin flip... fade!
  8. And our Grand Winner with 21 points... CrimsonSoul!!!
So THIS SUNDAY at noon CST we will be having the giveaway. The prizes will be hidden until that time. Hylian will choose a number 1-7 and that gift will be (temporarily) his. After that, Mathias gets to either choose a number or steal away Hylian's. If he chooses Hylian's then Hylian gets to choose a new number. Next, stienman can either pick a number or steal one of the other gifts. If he steals, the person stolen from can pick a number or steal from the third guy. And so on until all numbers have been chosen. When it's all said and done you can trade them to your heart's content and I won't be involved. Remember that there's a PS3 game in there, so if you don't have a PS3 you're gonna have a bad time.
Opening up the comments again. See you Sunday!

Participation was great but went down a little as the week progressed, as expected. Here's how the entries went:

  • Monday - 20
  • Tuesday - 17
  • Wednesday - 11
  • Thursday - 7
  • Friday - 8
Strangely enough, all the winners participated on Friday... Double points away!
 
Hey Dave? Sunday noon CST is 1am for me, and I have to work on Monday morning. I'm not gonna ask you to reschedule it just for my sake, since it appears most of the winners are in the USA time zones, but would it be possible to arrange my picks in advance? Say, I'll always pick the smallest number available, and never try to steal anyone else's prize?

EDIT: Whoops, just saw your PM. Your method works fine too, thanks. :)
 
Thanks Dave :)

The contest was fun and I am very shocked (but grateful) that I managed to get enough points to qualify as a winner (even if you had to add a new slot for me :) )

Damn. I thought I had set it up early enough to include you. So who wants to scab in for bhamv?
 
WOOOOOOOO!

That's only 1pm for me so I should be able to be online, but I have a nagging suspicion I'm supposed to do something on Sunday that I'm forgetting about.

So it's like Quidditch. The quaffles didn't matter, only the golden snitch. (I keed, I keed).
