Cool! If anyone on this teams wins the t-shirt, you have to share it with all of the other team members! I'll take it on Saturdays.

If it is anything less than a XXL, nobody will get to wear it the day after me.

 

[LandShark]

[JigPu]

Wonder what my odds of submitting that WU are? My guess is that I'll be asleep or in school as somebody submits it Would be just my luck...

Now I've got to start uploading more regularly

[Cy]

Don't rush to claim the price yet. This nice event won't happen before 20 days. My estimate is 22 days from now.

[bad arses ******* mode on] And even if get it , nobody will have it.....they have to take it from my stiff cold dead fingers [bad srses ******* mode off]

 

[Cy]

Your proposal...is acceptable.

Should be no problem winning it, I mean the odds are:

1 out of 3636393 total users.

As of 12:00 Noon CST

LR is right! Those are way better odds than trying to win PowerBall at 1 in 80 million!! So I think I'm just going to hoard my WUs for a while and them dump them right around when the count is 499 million.

 

[Greg M]

...and most of those users are inactive. The odds are looking even better.

 

[Yodums]

Auction it off ebay! JK

I'd probably frame it or donate it to someone that will appreciate it more than I will

 

[Puer Aeternus]

Funny none of y'all mentioned washing the shirt inbetween usage...GROSS...man you guys must be a tight crew to swap shirts like that ...oh I know, do the guy thing and hang it out the window for a few minutes or coat it in deoderant

 

[Greg M]

Run it through the clothes dryer.

Like Jeff Foxworthy says, "Warm equals clean!".

 

[DeltaSierra]

495 million so far. Just a few more days to go.

 

[eobard]

Well, it's not free money, but it's a step in the right direction. Ok, I'll allow Berkeley to select me as the winner.

Actually it is, one group is donating 500 big ones to the 5 mill. user.
