And he won with one of those

How about future contests like this be limited to a single entry per person instead of 72 pages

Congratulations Geraldmango. Enjoy sir. Enjoy

And sushrukh. Your contribution to this thread instantly bring two words to mind. "Sad" and "loser".

Sorry to say this here (i don't want to spoil this thread or for the winning posters joy) but that sounds like a Jealous Post.

And many thanks to these type of replies Members of Staff are now banned from entering DH competitions.

I offer you many thanks for this (said with extreme sarcasm

)

please read my post in this thread - # 29. not saying it specifically applies to you, just would like you to think about it.
fyi, some giveaways are single entries, some arent. i think they like to mix things up just so things dont get boring. i am sure there are other factors involved in the rules setup to. thing is, none of it matters, dh sets the rules for their free giveaways & we follow them & hope for the best. & be thankful we got a shot.

& mig, sorry to hear about you guys being excluded.

Erroneus · Dec 1, 2007, 11:17 PM

Christ people.... don't get your hopes up with these competitions, so you want be disappointed and bitch about everything.

Btw. congrats geraldmango, thats one sweet price, have fun with it.

mike2h · Dec 1, 2007, 11:25 PM

what he ^ said

geraldmango · Dec 2, 2007, 12:30 AM

wow im not sure what to say. I would like to thank DH for the win ! I got an email today saying I had won the card I couldnt even reply my hands were shaking so much. I have never been able to afford a card like this ever and I almost started to cry. I know that sounds stupid.

I am sorry people are angry that I won and I dont know what to say to them, just sorry and I hope you win next time.

please dont flame me if you didn't like my entries, and thanks Mike2h for your kind and mature words, DH should be proud to have members like you.

Judas · Dec 2, 2007, 12:43 AM

Don't worry about anyone that can't get to grips that even though there are members that lurk and don't post, or lurk but don't have an account, or just come from just anywhere and get lucky..... it's a no different then a lotto, i'm not royally pissed off everytime i don't win the 649 (major multimillion dollar lotto where live)...

Congratulations Geraldmango, hopefully you've got a powersupply and pci-ex that can handle that monster....

Once again, ignore the idiots that don't have anything positive to say and complain about "it was one sided.... blah blah blah" lol...

I'd rub it in thier face... but i didn't win

Skull · Dec 2, 2007, 01:14 AM

Congrats Geraldmango. great piece of hardware you won.

Ok, some of you might not know me, however im a mate of Z's, and ive been drafted in to help run the forum for a variety of reasons.

Lets get one thing clear, these competitions are free to all members, you aren't paying for the right to enter and those of you who do, have as much chance of winning as everyone else, which in this case due to the amount of entries was low.

Those of you who ignored the competition page rules of no bitching, have now found themselves on a quick path out of the site, on the end of my boney foot.

If I see any more complaints, its an instant site ban on a permanent level. If you want hard ball, you got it.

If anything after this post isn't a congratulations post, it will be your last.

Judas · Dec 2, 2007, 01:36 AM

Congradulation skull, welcome (back....)

i would have posted without congradulations... but your last sentence kinda made it nessary

Go get em with your boney foot....

Skull · Dec 2, 2007, 01:37 AM

Hey Judas, nice to see you again man. You still got the crossfire rig into the 30 inch dell?

Gerald, whats the plans for the card? if you need some help setting it up, drop a thread into the tech forum. make sure you have suitable partnering hardware.

You deserve the card, and don't pay any mind to the whiners.

Ignore the haters. It would be really boring if the people who post several hundred times always won the competitions. Please post some pics of that monster in your pc once you get it

Brutality · Dec 2, 2007, 02:20 AM

Daaaaamn, dude! That's some serious card you've won there. I hope you'll enjoy it !!

IvanV · Dec 2, 2007, 03:24 AM

Congratulations, Geraldmango, I believe that Fortuna has put the card into the right hands.

pLaSmA_dEmOn · Dec 2, 2007, 06:34 AM

Congrats on the fantastic win geraldmango! I hope you dominate the gaming world with that kickass card of yours

. Although I do wonder about the rules of entry provided by Driverheaven.net. I thought the winner would be chosen by means of creativity. I guess it was random? Well anyways, pwn all those n00bs out there for me
