    Default Send a Member to CGE LIVE DRAWING

    If you missed the entry period... SORRY!

    FIFTY Roundtable members entered this contest, and one will reap the ultimate reward, a trip to Las Vegas to attend Classic Gaming Expo on July 28th and 29th with all kinds of "extras". The LIVE drawing will be held on Sunday, April 1st at 8pm EDT. It's not an April fools' gag... it just happens to fall on a good day for all of us to run the results

    There will be other prizes drawn that day, so even if you don't win the trip, you may win other gaming stuff, certainly worth checking out. Per tradition, myself and my wife will draw names from a cup on live webcam, and we'll also be on IRC chatting live through the event. You can keep track of the action via the video, the chat, or both!

    DETAILS:
    The LIVE camera can be accessed here:
    http://www.digitpress.com/webcam.htm

    The LIVE chat can be accessed here:
    http://www.digitpress.com/irc/index.htm

    See ya's on Sunday.

    Just to make ABSOLUTELY sure... we don't HAVE to be there to win, right? I'm workin' Sunday night (closing shift at the store) so I can't witness the happiness that would be the immediate-winnings of stuff. :-(

    I don't think so.
    I won something (albeit, it wasn't the grand-prize) from the last drawing and I missed the live show.
    I'll probably be watching the drawing, keeping my fingers crossed.

    No you don't need to be there to win.
    Because it makes no attempt to be great, it is therefore extremely great.

    Oh cool! CONGRATS RETROZONE! My computer is a MAC and I cant access Irc or I would have been there. And my connection was SO slow that I saw his name, qbertandernie, and drexel923's name drawn. I guess all of the names and what they won will be posted sooner or later.


    Thanks!

    I am using a Mac, and could join the chat. Did you click on the link in Joe's first post?

    And a feline guest appearance! I don't think that has ever happened at one of these drawings before.

    This has to be the best prize I've won. Ever.

    The above picture with joe eating the slip of paper was probably the funniest screen capture I've ever done. Um, the funniest AltairBoy has ever done. Whatever.

    Awesome. That was fun, even though I didn't enter.
