MyBroadband 8 million post winners

[Necuno]

And TK posts should really be excluded from bragging about high post rates.

Kom ons kla saam

Yea, why was the money split?

If I won I wouldnt expect to win half of what was up for grabs.


Sorry RPM, but this is a bit odd.

MyBB is odd. Why did your assume the money won't be split?

That's fine, it's MyBB prerogative to reward members I don't care about that. When I saw who won though it became quite clear that this wasn't a competition.

That is just a conspiracy theory without proof.

RPM's OP:

MyBroadband 8 million posts: win R8,000

MyBroadband 8 million posts: win R8,000

So every one assumed that the 8k will go to one person. I think it is great that it was split. There are a lot more regulars on here. Take fanie.dry - he posts on average 50 posts per day. A lot of people hanging out on TK. The competition would never have been judged on the number of entries in the thread. I don't know where anyone got that idea from.

Hey hey... Easy on the name calling...

RPM's OP:

It doesn't say either. But I guess rpm can learn from this. It is just difficult to please everyone because no matter how clear he will try and make the rules, someone will find a way to bitch and moan. I am surprised he still runs competitions.

Bugger, thought I had this one..

No. I thought I had this one... :/

 

[Ockie]

And ockie in third place, come on. You're not that niave are you? I would be fine if rpm just admitted to preference but the facade of a random choice.

Yes, I know. I have been told on mybb that I have gotten fat, that I am no longer a spring chicken. I can no longer have a suger daddy, cause I am one now (despite being frekking broke). My sell by date is older than garage pies. There really is no need to rub it in any further. Jeeebers, how much more can a poor boy (excuse me, GEEZER) be tortured on here!

You don't think it's even a little bit strange? If my count is correct, 1909 different people entered, but the big prizes (cash + HDD) all went to 3 people on the first 2 pages of the memberlist when sorted by post count. Looking at it from a probabilistic perspective, the odds certainly seem skewed.

But, like someone else said, it's RPM's money and he can do with it as he pleases. I'd probably also rather have that kind of prize go to a regular member who contributes a lot to the forum.

You guys are thinking way too much into this, if you didn't have it to begin with why worry that you never win.

What if the RNG really did come up with those winners? So the next competition, if a frequent member pops up a winner, they should run it again until someone with a lower post count gets it? That would be actual tampering.

Also, why just the first two pages? If it was all about the post count, then why not just the first page? Btw I've never made a single post in TK.

Anyway it seems like ichigo has now grown his circle of friends. I'm happy to offer up my prize to be split between anyone who feels hard-done by...

I don't anyone is expecting the winners to give back their prizes, I just want transparency in what is deemed an apparently, random competition and what is deemed predetermined decision.

 

[Indigogirl]

Hah - love it! Congratulations all the winners!

So what you asking for is JUSTICE to prevail ...

 

[ToxicBunny]

No..

But earlier you claimed an employee had won..

You have ignored the question, but please point out which employee won.

No. If there are odds, then it is possible - you answered your own question

Great - let's move on

Agreed - it's like the world owes them something...

Oh please say it isn't true! one ichigo is enough already! But with almost every competition people are bitching and moaning. You won the prize - it's yours - enjoy it

You have no proof. You are only speculating ... or trolling ... but have fun while you are at it. Next time when you win something, insist on a re-draw just for the sake of fairness

so what transparency do you want? do you want RPM and staff to record the session where they put names in a hat? or maybe screenshots of the RNG? Or would you like to see Mike fondlings RPM's balls so they don't hit his chin too hard

We are all losers here. Don't be BAD one. It's not very becoming.

I didn't win a prize, but I am a winner!
