Ok most of you know that the current contest is still undecided. Cluster, is still MIA because of his job situation so a new way for deciding the contest has been decided upon. Here is the format:

-- We are running the drawing tomorrow at 3pm NY time

-- We will use a random number generator to perform the drawing. Ploaf will draw the numbers and GTSsimmo, Kendan and I will have the names list to verify the winners.

-- Ploaf will not now the order of the list for the tickets so that that while he is drawing the numbers he will have no idea how the numbers match the names so there will be no bias.

Results will be posted in this thread within an hour of the drawing

================================================== ====

AND HERE THEY ARE

6th place: Moto
5th place: clan_wS
4th place: illbreakit
3rd place: monster of rock
2nd place: OC3d
1st place: repo man11


--1st place has the first choice of prize, second next, third next and so on down the list, or up rather ;)

As you can see six places were chosen instead of 5 and a 6th prize was added to compensate for Ploaf's 'creative' drawing techniques. ;)

Again here is the prize list:

Duron -repo man11
GF2 GTS -monster of rock
128MB stick Synch 133 CL2 Crucial CT16M64sD7E.8T -illbreakit
D link NIC Moto
Swiftech -OC3d
Golden Orb Socket 370 HSF Lt. Max


[b]So first off repo man11 post in this thread which you would like and then we will continue down the list

'Bout time!! I ran the Duron in a spare box for a few weeks and he did quite nicely. But since I replaced him with an XP, he's been sitting in his package on my desk. He's very bored and misses his high tech hardware buddies. But most of all he misses folding WU's for 32! :) The Elsa GF2 GTS and Dlink NIC are also anxiously awaiting the chance to meet their new owners.

Verdufreek: The next contest is gonna seriously own!!!

PS. I believe the winners of the current contest will get to pick from the available prizes, rather than have the prizes assigned. We hope in this way to reduce the chance of winning a piece of hardware you can't really use for anything. I suppose some generous souls could even decline from accepting a prize they don't want or need.

2nd PS. I think the Duron had a little accident with some defogger paint. It's all over his L1 bridges. :eek: I knew I should have kept that vial away from him. He's just so fast and wily!! :D

Wow, I won! Duron it is. Now I'm going to have to scare up a socket A board to make it a dedicated folder. But that is what it will be used for. Thanks guys!
I guess I could use this as an excuse to buy a DDR board, and make my trusty KT7A the Duron's new home. Hmmm...

OC3d is going to hold our own drawing to determine who wins that Swifty. We'll probably know later today, we're just trying to make sure anyone who wanted to be in the running got on the list for this secondary drawing.

The winner of the DLink NIC should PM me with their shipping address.

I hope all of the parts go to a computer that will fold.

MadMoto
07-22-02, 08:00 PM
Looks like I get the NIC card :).
Thanks everyone and I agree also that the parts should go towards a folden box.
I am gathering parts to set up another box so that is what this NIC card will be used for.
So far I have a video card, hard drive, HSF, and now a NIC card.
Fold on
