Thanks for the heads up. +rep

I needed 1 rep point to put me over 160 and give me another box, and you just gave it to me! I'd say I'm making fast progress. I only got my 4th box like earlier this week. And now I have 5.

[.Maleficus.]

OMFG I hope I win this. That would make my day.

[xRyokenx]

Winning this would be kickass, but the odds are that I won't, blech... Christmas would come early though.

Sweet dude. I'm pretty liberal with rep. I hand it out like it's candy. (as long as the post is even remotely helpful..)

[Indybird]

Yeah thanks for the notice. Why don't they advertise this on their front page or in their e-mail newsletter?

+rep for the notice

What is this igloo you speak of?

[Luke122]

What is this igloo you speak of?

For real? Ok, it's a shelter built from blocks of frozen snow. They are assembled like bricks to create a round dome type enclosure. Once sealed, they can be remarkably warm and comfortable inside... err.. so I'm told.

Just pulling your leg. :p I know what an igloo is, lol, I'd make one if I lived somewhere cold enough, heh heh.

:santa:

[Luke122]

Haha.. and I end up letting slip the fact that I know what an igloo is, how to make one, and that they are comfortable inside. :P

Oh well, can't beat the voice of experience I guess... when the "day after tomorrow" comes, I'll be safe and warm in my snowhut. :D

[xRyokenx]

Hey, that's a really good idea... when the apocalypse comes, I'll be running my PC with a generator and hooked up to the web chatting with you guys over AIM or something, lol. Oh yeah, my PC serves as a space heater too. :D

Don't you mean "Two days before the day after tomorrow"?

[DaJe]

I enetered the sweepstakes myself, and if I win it, I might just give it away to someone on here. I don't really need those things myself, but me enetering doubles the chance of anyone else here. The only thing I could possibly use is the power supply, but I'm still all set with the one I already have.

[xRyokenx]

This here poor college student sure could use an upgrade from his 430W PSU and 6800XT.

[Ap1thy]

sweet, wouldnt mind a new gfx card tho a power supply would be good too

would + rep but i dont have any to give lol

HA! Thats so wrong on so many levels my friend. ;)

But I can play that game too!

I had to sell my only means of transportation, my dodge caravan, so my parents could have money until they can get everything worked out.

...but then again, I never used it. lol I make my friends drive me everywhere. But still, that scrapper was my first vehicle. T_T

By the way, I just entered the sweepstakes as well. I don't need the prizes as much as I need some money, so if I win, I'm going to put the stuff up on ebay. I'll cut TBCS members a deal though. ^_-

Best of luck to everyone!

[xRyokenx]

My truck is rusted all to hell, I can't drive it, I'm mooching off my mom.

[DaJe]

Easy guys, I haven't even won it yet.

[Eclecticos]

I've entered it a billion of these dammned sweepstakes . . ain't never won chit :D
There should be some type of giveaway for people who've entered all of them and never won, any of them.

[xRyokenx]

Just like the lottery, your odds of being killed by a folding chair are better... or something like that. Hell, your odds of dying are even better... because nobody's immortal. Or are they? :think:

[Blebbz]

Argh... It's so annoying... I can't take part because I'm in the UK

[elbarto241]

do we even have any proof that newegg is actually give these prizes away? has anyone ever heard of anyone they know winning something from newegg? maybe its all some sort of twisted conspiracy theory..... time to break out the tin foil underwear, AJ@PR.
