Missing my arse. Everyone knows what a fanboy Chris is - thieving little bastard, more like. I hope he gets his karma soon.
As for the competition, what to say? You were up-front (eventually!) but it doesn't change the fact that the organisation was a total shambles and I wasted too much...
Arf, this made me chuckle. My kind of humour! :) Can't say I'm too interested in the game though, sadly. I was a huge, huge TFC fan back in the day but I'm holding out for TF2 now.
Sorry. Like Sulkdodds said, it seems I mis-interpreted your post as "no-one cares, we've got better stuff to be doing, now shut the hell up." Which obviously didn't help matters. As for my insults, they're borne out of frustration - I don't know any of you, I have no clue what you're like in...
In fact, f**k it, I'm writing a brief email to Gabe now. It's only fair that they know what happens to the prizes they give to websites like this, when it's promised they'll be awarded to winners of site-run competitions.
No shit. Perhaps, just maybe, that's what's annoying us idiots who took part? We're the gullable prats who took the trouble to pen a letter for this two-bit website and now that the competition is done and dusted, no-one here has the decency to award one of us a prize, indeed as f**king...
I think what Solaris is trying to say is, "so what the f**k please, gentlemen?" Munro filing his nails? The computer on which the entries were being typed up broke and now you're awaiting a new PC before you can continue? Chris stole the replacement prize as well?
Very much looking forward...
Yeah, strangely enough, I can read. So are you saying nothing has progressed since Sulks made that post a week ago? Nothing else has happened to move things along any further?
Brilliant.
So what's going on now? Is Munro doing anything? Is ANYONE doing anything? What was the last event that happened pertaining to finding a solution to this matter.
An email I've just sent to Chris_D:
"Dear Chris,
I'll keep this relatively brief because I'm a busy chap and I'm sure you are too. My name is David, or "DVS82" on the hl2.net forums. I'm writing because I'd like an explanation as to what is going on with the mailbag competition, if...
OK, seriously now, what the f**k? I respect the staff who have posted here in as much as could be expected for people who have delayed a reasonable explanation for so long, but I do think Valve have a right to know that the prize they gave, the prize you promised for this competition has just...
I know. I really don't know how I can paraphrase my previous rants any more effectively, to be honest. :(
I can't imagine what could possibly need nearly 2 months to sort out, in a competition as straightforward as this. Still, I've lost the will to rant and most of the staff posting here...
