**packetjunkie** · February 13th, 2007, 03:40 PM

It's been a little while since we've done a giveaway; so on March 1st we'll give away a 30gb iPod Video.

Any site supporter of any level will be eligible as long as they have posted at least once during the month of Feb.

Good luck everyone!

Well, OK I guess, just as long as you can have it to me by March 4th since I leave for Beaver Creek on the 6th. Thanks MP.

Here is how you get a shot at winning! Y'all can read...can't ya?

Don't get snippy with me, noob. I was here when you were shittin' yellow. I read that part. What I meant was, who does the picking, and do they throw a dart at a picture of all of us, or does the computer randomly pick someone.

**packetjunkie** · February 13th, 2007, 03:59 PM

I have a script I run that grabs all the eligible users from the database; puts them into an array and then randomly selects 10 names from the list. Those names are put into a list and randomly reduced to 5 names and then from that list a winner is selected. (This is done over three days time).

While not updated for the next run, you can see the script run here.

I believe in past drawings, those who qualify are put into the drawing and the puter randomly pick one.
This time it's gonna be ME! so you don't have to worry

Saleen99 · February 13th, 2007, 04:02 PM

Yes, you have, but I haven't. It's mine, mine, mine.

I'm betting against Ron. After his Super Bowl bet, his luck is bound to return to normal.
