I wrote five articles, almost 250 posts, nobody was as long online as me. I didn&#39;t have to be the winner, but i&#39;m really down because it seems nothing has been appreciated at all.<br /> This will be the last time you see me here, because next giveaway will just be the same again. Working with no appreciations or prize because I&#39;m from Europe. Why does Europeans always deserve less? Any answer to this? </p> http://forum.collegetimes.us/topic/winner-of-the-collegetimes-hp-laptop-bundle-free-giveaway#post-943 Tue, 01 Sep 2009 16:06:50 +0000 Anonymous 943@http://forum.collegetimes.us/ <p>Staying tuned,definitely!</p> <p>Would that only be restricted to forum posts,or also comments left under articles?Okay,guess I&#39;ll have to wait... </p> http://forum.collegetimes.us/topic/winner-of-the-collegetimes-hp-laptop-bundle-free-giveaway#post-940 Tue, 01 Sep 2009 12:24:28 +0000 Anonymous 940@http://forum.collegetimes.us/ <p>@Devenox,</p> <p>As per our contest guidelines, we were seeking quality just as much as quantity. 50% of the points were based on the quality AND quantity of articles submitted, not necessarily the amount of forum posts.</p> <p>Anyway, we are hoping to giveaway more prizes soon, and hopefully one based on the number of forum posts here (with a max per day, and spam/troll free).
