AC Ryan, master of originality :mellow:

[mnpctech]

^ Like I've always said, we're being watched :h34r:

AC/Ryan devized a contest idea that will get their advertising into every mod discussion forum for free. Clever.

[Gordy]

Those rad grills are a blatent rip of the AQ ones, that said I wish AQ did them in black :)

ROFL! Genius

[Starbuck3733T]

I'm torn. I don't want to be a whore, but I could use the $2400, but I'd not use it for a mod... I should really take the fam for a good vacation... they need it. tough year.

[Leeum]

I dunno about you guys but i've entered. They couldn't have picked worse pictures for mine...why is there one of when i split my head open in there lol! :huh:

:lol: Link (http://www.acryan.com/contest/ACRyanGreatWorklogContest-contestants.shtml)

[Starbuck3733T]

Goddamn the only thing that makes me want to enter is to get WizD up higher in them... I'm not sure how many folks will do it on bit-tech.... all of the probably since they're not tied with a vested intrest to not screwing/leaching other companies.

[mnpctech]

Goddamn the only thing that makes me want to enter is to get WizD up higher in them...

Nobody said you couldn't enter the contest.

[jaguarking11]

Been noticing this treand going around. My worklog is piss poor at beast and have no chance even if I wanted to enter the contest. Ah well.

[Starbuck3733T]

Nobody said you couldn't enter the contest.

But then I'm their whore.

[mnpctech]

But then I'm their whore.

Well, might as well be the whore that makes the most money ;-)

[GodsUnicorn]

But then I'm their whore.

Well you are a 'Star Buck':-p

[dutchcedar]

2400 bucks? Jeez... dat's a lot of money... :D

[Starbuck3733T]

Well you are a 'Star Buck':-p

I don't get it.

But okay... bill has a very good point. Winning $2400 would allow me to pay off my debts (as in ZERO CC debt) which is always a good thing. Sad that I'm not using for modding, eh?

[mnpctech]

I didn't get that either....

Family first! You can mod anytime.

Lets see those WizD contestants! :magic:

[Starbuck3733T]

I think he's emphasizing the Buck part....

Sucky sucky five dolla? me love you long time.

Even the wife thinks I should go for it, and did an :lol: when I read what mnpctech said. here goes.

[dutchcedar]

I can't seem to add the link to my sig... it says its longer than 500 characters...:duh:

Ill give you 10bux to love someone else.:-p

They have a shortended version of the URL on the faq/details page, it ends .htm and should get your around the char limit..

And WTF is going on, I entered my wizD log and my bit-tech log... they only put on the one so far. Might have to mail them again. :eyebrow:

And they've got your wizardness listed at ACRyan... heck your right next to me... kinda like two hos sharin' the same corner... :duh:

[Starbuck3733T]

Pimpin ain't easy.

I submitted my bit-tech log too... not so bT could win out in total logs, but because the bT log is the only one elidigble that has been there since D-day: 9/2/2003, the first log post.

[dutchcedar]

^^^ Workin' TWO corners, eh? Ho.


:D

[Starbuck3733T]

Well...5 actually. here, GruntVille (where I met tribaloverkill), ArsTechnica (the ORIGINAL home), Pro/Cooling, and bT. ModdersHQ used to be there, but I stopped updating it there, since the place is closing :(

I'm a slut.

[Da_Rude_Baboon]

You ladies needing some representation? :whip:

[zittware]

Zitt puts his worklogs into the mix:

WizD Forums 6
Arstechnica OpenForum 1

WizD is now 3rd.

[Starbuck3733T]

I just threw my Ars log in (didnt know I could do that, since it wasn't listed.)... huge insult to Ars for me not to do that, and the MAX1668 board log created here.

WizD Forums 7, Ars 2. - WizD tied for second.

Or at least that's how it should be soon. Way to be John!!

[Leeum]

Nice work guys, WizD are making an early comeback :D

[zittware]

The faq/rules clearly stated that any "discussion" forum is allowed as long as the "reader" can post comments / feedback.

[slame]

congrats to fivecheebs who already won a PSU

did you already contact them ?

look for random winners on their site :toast:

[Da_Rude_Baboon]

nice one cheebs! I'm confused about that PSU. Do you get power cables with it or do you have to buy an additional pack with them in it?

[Leeum]

Woaw, nice one Cheebs ^_^

[Hal]

thats some good prizes already!!! congrats!!!

[Starbuck3733T]

The faq/rules clearly stated that any "discussion" forum is allowed as long as the "reader" can post comments / feedback.

Reading comprehension isn't my strongpoint. ;-)

[Starbuck3733T]

yup, some good stuff there.

[mnpctech]

Cheebs has no worklog, and already beat you guys to the prize dept.

Thats Classic! Congrats Cheebsy :thumb:

[fivecheebs]

hahah! huh....

/me runs to check!

LOL ... errr why? WTF did i do?

[Starbuck3733T]

You commented on my log, you silly englishman!

[fivecheebs]

LMAO silly englishman with a new PSU :-p :bounce:. I guessed it was a comment but i wonder why or which one?

I wonder if they will ship it over here ..... :shrug:

I have emailed them, ill let you guys know what happens! :w00t:

[Pug]

Lol!! Bloody hell cheebsy, well done mate. :lol: :thumb: :wiz:



Btw, just so Dutch doesn't get an unfair advantage ;-), if anyone wants their worklogs "tidying" like his, post-editing has been re-enabled.
If you want to summarize some of the lesser-content posts in a log and then submit the links of the posts you would like soft-deleted to a mod or admin, I'm sure we'd be happy to oblige for the sake of increased thread-comprehension. :-)

Thanks for bigging us up, everyone and good luck with the winnings. :toast:

[Starbuck3733T]

*high fives pug*

[fivecheebs]

Well, it turns out its not a joke and they sending it to me soon.

*fivecheebs does a happy dance* :lol:

The bloke on the end of the email, Dave, seems like a jolly nice chap.

[mnpctech]

Did you ask Dave what the comment was cheebs?

[dutchcedar]

cheebs... you should start a worklog on how you're going to mod the PSU and enter it... :D

[fivecheebs]

I have asked him Bill lol. I hinted at it in my first email by saying "I dont know why i have won" hoping he would explain. He made a joke saying he didnt either, then he said i was just a random winner. In my reply i asked if he could be more specific. I'll report back if i he replys.

LOL dutch! ... ironic :lol:

Just had the reply, and if it want totally random hes giving nothing away (other than the PSU :bounce:)

[zer0]

so you got a free PSU for sitting on your ass a posting on Starbuck's thread damn!

[ỒĊBłůē]

W00t! Cheebs - freebies - congratulations buddy :toast:

Does anyone know if the random winners things will be a daily/ weekly/ monthly thing?

Website seems to suggest daily but it doesn't explicitly say so.

[fivecheebs]

My guess is its random! :-p

[fivecheebs]

Thats a good idea DRB ... i hadnt thought of that. (Its at the back of my mind at the moment since i dont have time to work on it) It would boost the numbers a bit i guess.

http://wizdforums.co.uk/images/smilies/grin.gifMaybe they're tired of watching her try to RIT dye every piece of white plastic in her case... :wiz:

[ỒĊBłůē]

:vomit: Yeah, thanks for that - I really didn't need that thought in my head <_<

From urban dictionary - I would post a link but definition 2 is a little risqué -

When a car hits another in the side forming a letter "T"

[fivecheebs]

its the american term for getting hit in the side of your car, usually by someone not paying attention.

godamn were quick tonight!!

The airmiles will come in handy... :inno:

[zittware]

Just my imagination... or as the contest gone by way of the vapor? As in vaporware...

Last "random" winner was on Monday 03 October 2005
My last worklog (http://www.wizdforums.co.uk/showthread.php?goto=newpost&t=3069) I submitted to them has not made an appearance on any of their pages...

Maybe they are just busy with xmas shipping or something... but kinda strange.

[Leeum]

I received a PM a few weeks ago on another forum asking about another contest they're holding on the side :huh:

They've bitten off more than they can chew with the first one...shouldn't they work on taking care of that before starting another one?

[Fibbles]

You guys are funny!

Ahem... Who's bitten off more than whom can chew? I haven't been following this -_-

[mnpctech]

Theres now 3 contests?! ;-)

http://mnpctechcom.temp.powweb.com/images/1WizDMov/ACRyanBogger.gif

[Fibbles]

Isn't this supposed to be over?

What's the latest status of the grand & fantasticamoo worklog contest?

[dutchcedar]

^^^ Yah, it was supposed to be over on January 31... the results announced within a week... which would be February 7.

My guess? Zero, zip, nada. But I've been wrong before... I think it was in 1983. :D

[Starbuck3733T]

oh, so assuming you get to be wrong once per decade, you've got more than a few saved up. :D

[dutchcedar]

^^^ Quite a few... :D
