i thought it should have went to skate2snow since he wasn't under the winning number... (atleast thats what i thought anywho)
but congrats glasszon
thats one heck of a mystery prize!!
i was kinda close aswell... 236 (ram timings) i was gonna go with 220 (1/2 of 440 my favorite videocard) but i didn't cause i thought it was "a stupid number" in how i guessed it... lol
skate2snow
07-04-2004, 05:55 PM
OMG!!! I was SOOO close. And I was actually looking for a new videocard snce my old one is dead:(. Oh well. I think you guys should respect the price is right rules:D
CrazyXP1700
07-04-2004, 06:09 PM
hahaha...
i suggest not pushing your luck...
i brought it up... maybe they'll toss something your way since i sorta see you as the winner...
you guys should have specified how was the closest number...
but if it was mant to be any which way... ya lost fair and square... :stick:
skate2snow
07-05-2004, 04:23 AM
Na, I can live w/ it. Anyway, I'm still happy for glasszon, he won a 9800PRO, and no one have to feel bad becoze someone is happy...
skate2snow
07-05-2004, 04:26 AM
BTW: I will explain how I choosed my number:D.
I have calculate about how much whould 5 balls numbered whould do, when there moderated(like a 12, and after a 50, that moderated for me...). and I landed on 218, I checked if someone ad it, and yes, so I have raised to 221....:D

:( , how did your video card died? what video card was it? I hope it doesn't means your computer will be down until you got a new graphic card.
Guess I should explain how I choose my number too.:p:
All I did was just randomly picked 3 numbers out of my keypad and decide to use that number because I think the winning number is most likely will end up somewhere in the middle according to what I learn in statistics, I was still shocked when I saw I won this lol.

Uh... he was 2 over the number and the winner was 1 under. being 1 off is closer than 2... what's not to understand? :confused: (not being a wise-ass but I'm confused at how you think he was closer?)
Congratulations glasszon! :toast:

Hey Skate, consolation prize, PM me your shirt size and address and as soon as they are back from the printer I'll send you an XtremeSystems logo Tee shirt.
skate2snow
07-05-2004, 07:59 AM
Hey, I'm sure happy, and I sent you the PM.
But, I dont think I hould have a Tshirt since if your rules were as its the closer, and not the closer over(where most of the time it is), like CrazyXP said, he won fare and square....
But I still sure love to have got a TShirt:D
skate2snow

And Glasszon. I ad an 9600PRO, and it died becoze I accidentaly ripped off a SMD chip.
But anyway, I'm just looking for money to buy a X800XT. I found one at 620$ CND, so I have got an idea to make me that money, and I should be able to have a new videocard at the end of the month. And no, I dont have any other videocards, so I'm on my old 333MHz Laptop.....
CrazyXP1700
07-05-2004, 08:17 AM
whoa! a X-S tee... thats cool
im confused now how he's closer...
i think i was thinking the closest person with out being under the selected number... as in
he picked 218, and you picked 221, you would have won since you were higher than the number picked...
i dunno
skate2snow
07-05-2004, 09:29 AM
Lets stop arrguing on this. there rules were probably the closest DOT So I have nothing to say against that...
CrazyXP1700
07-05-2004, 09:42 AM
lol not really arguing... i was trying to explain how i thought you should have won...
winnar is winnar :stick: :p:
Never heard of the closest with going over rule before... where is that used? (honestly curious)
skate2snow
07-05-2004, 01:54 PM
At most draw like that, its used. Those who are under the number are annuled. But its ok, Kazoo and FUGGER probably ad in the head that it was the clear closer....
Charles Wirth
07-05-2004, 02:18 PM
Price is right rules!
heh, closest to the actual retail price without going over...
We will try to figure out something a little tougher for Thanksgiving while keeping it fair as possible.
skate2snow
07-05-2004, 04:06 PM
oops, I'm thinking about it, I have mixed me up. I have mixed me w/ the draw number and my number:confused: sorry.... But if I the number was 220, the price was still to glasszon?
That was something you guys should have spedified before, so we could annule other numbers to take advantage on the game. But who cares, the draw is finished....
