|  Contests? Does anyone ever enter contests to win computer stuff? like the holiday game contest for ATI right now, are those things rigged at certain times to only give out a certain prize? Or is it by pure chance that you match three? And for that matter have any of you won anything through similair contests?

 | We don't run contests because I'd rather reward good members who help others than to give stuff to someone who shows up here for 10 minutes, spams the forums, then leaves. Most sites run contests purely to steal forum members from other sites INTEL QX9650 ASUS Maximus Extreme 4GB DDR3-1600 Sapphire HD 3870X2 Danger Den Torture Rack (Custom W/C) Seagate 750GB HDD BFG ES 800W PSU | ||||||||||||||

 | I entered a contest to win a motherboard once and I actually won! All I had to do was write 100 words about why I thought I should get it. You remember that Capper?   | ||||||||||||||
