Extending the Rebel Tech Gargantuan Gaming Gear Give-away

[Jan]

My Fellow MyGaming-ans

Rebel Tech has been in contact to suggest that we extend the give-away into October with a few more "epic prizes".

This presents a few options, on which I would be much obliged if you shared your opinion (and vote in the poll).

We could:

1. Delay the grand prize draw and have the additional weekly give-aways offer people ways to earn more entries;
2. we could do the grand prize competition in week 5 as originally intended and give away the additional prizes in separate competitions thereafter; or
3. we could decline the additional prizes (but seriously, who doesn't want more competitions?)

What say you?

More prizes would be awesome Rebel Tech will be making many a gamer happy with more giveaways

Who is the soul less heartless one?

[HavocXphere]

No. I don't want more free gear from Rebel Tech because I have no soul.

Just had to vote that given the phrasing. Now I'd like a black case to match the colour of my soul please.

True. It's going to have an active forum again. Keep things seemingly alive around these parts.

I'm going for option one. It will be good for both the forum and Rebel Tech, so everybody wins except Jan who has to do the admin when the time comes for the grand prize draw.

For the final draw, may I suggest you go Platteland Style (it's like Gangnam Style but with more concertinas) and do a Tollie Drop?
It works like this: Each entry is documented on a largish, flat object - usually a paper plate. These plates are distributed randomly around a medium sized enclosure. A tollie (young ox) is then lead into the enclosure after having been fed. While it is traditional to use an ox, any form of livestock can be substituted but it must be noted that limited success was had with chickens in the past.
When the ox drops his last meal in the usual fashion, the winner is the name on the plate closest to where the... patty hits the ground.

Or you can do it your way with random number generators and technology stuff. But I guarantee my way is a lot more fun, especially if the ox breaks out of the enclosure and somebody (Kevin) has to go fetch it.

On the good side:
More competition, more tourist attract attraction, more activity on forum

On the meh side:
More admin work, more whiny threads

Yay for all the Rebel Tech prizes!

I also go with option one. Unfortunately I've been too busy at work to really participate but it's so great to see the MyGaming forums busier again.

Are they all going to be activity based? While I do enjoy the banter of some threads and the interesting discussions, a lot of the new threads and posts are simply posts to push up activity numbers. Just a thought.
