Pumapayam Posted September 7, 2007 Share Posted September 7, 2007 I know it's not based on total number of posts, but the more often we post, the more likely we are to win, right? Because the more chances we have of making that magic post #.Out of curiosity, do you have any idea when that number might be reached? I don't mean exactly... I mean is it days, or weeks, or months?Well, if we all rambled at the same time, probably hours, if we have logical and meaningful dicussions, months.I remember I was giving away random prizes based on post number and the winner didn't respond to my PMs and the e-mail address was invalid, so I ended up having to give the prize to the next poster in line which ended up being someone I didn't like. They're gone now. I don't know what ever happened to the winner, either.Smells like Plastic or 77017 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

travelguy_73 Posted September 7, 2007 Share Posted September 7, 2007 Something similar actually happened with one of our other contests. I remember I was giving away random prizes based on post number and the winner didn't respond to my PMs and the e-mail address was invalid, so I ended up having to give the prize to the next poster in line which ended up being someone I didn't like. They're gone now. I don't know what ever happened to the winner, either.I won something like a $25 certificate to Amazon a while ago from the HAIF...hopefully I wasn't the guy you don't like, LOL.

TJones Posted September 8, 2007 Share Posted September 8, 2007 Sorry guys, the contest is OVER ! I won with this post right here. I know...I know, it is tragic for everyone. Better luck next time guys. Thanks to everyone who played. You see Editor is a HUGE Walter Payton fan, and the number 34 post was in honor of TONIGHT being the football season kick off. He was also using number 34 in honor of Earl Campbell, since this forum IS about Houston and all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

editor Posted September 21, 2007 Author Share Posted September 21, 2007 The iPod logo is gone from the forum banner. Does that mean the contest is over?No, no one has won yet. I forgot to put it back after the Hurricane Humberto and Pirate Day banners. I'll stick it back on in a few minutes.I'll elaborate a little more on the clue I left earlier: The magic post in more than 200,000.Also, I am not elligible to win. If the magic post just happens to be one of mine, I'll pick whoever the next poster is. Same goes for Otto Mation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
