Just e-mail us anyway!

[Solaris]

This looks cool.
I WANT PRIZE NOW

 

[Asknoone]

I must say, the prize is pretty damned awesome.
/Huggles his.

 

[Gray Fox]

I doubt valve will give a prize to someone who will critisez them.

 

[Chris D]

I doubt valve will give a prize to someone who will critisez them.

I'm already in receipt of the prizes, it's up to me who gets them, not Valve. And anyway, they design their future projects on criticism.

 

[Asknoone]

You should tell them you think Gordon Freeman is emo because he doesn't speak.

 

[bigburpco]

Oh yes. This looks... eh... interesting.

 

[ríomhaire]

This better not be a downloadable prize like a Steam package or one you won't send to Ireland *shakes fist*

 

[bigburpco]

Living in SEA sucks.

No matter what the prize is, we'll come to some sort of way of getting it to anywhere in the world, providing they have some sort of postal system in their area

 

[Hectic Glenn]

Mr Deeming you've given it away!

/me zombifies Chris.

I thought any community based interests like this had all died the moment most of the staff found gardening more interesting (can't blame them of recent). Anyway, wheres this come from?

 

[The Brick]

Will the best letter be publicated for us to read?

Edit: oh wait they all will. ... ALL?! big page I guess

 

[Solaris]

I sent mine in. Was actually quite intresting to write.

 

[ríomhaire]

Crap, every time I try to write this it ends up like an article instead of a letter. I need help

 

[Gray Fox]

Is it possible to request and will the request be honored, that only you read the the letter and not other people unless it wins.

 

[Insano]

I submitted my letter, but I have no intention of winning at all. It's just that by posting my ideas, Chris_D will have to spend more time on picking the right winner D/

 

[Chris D]

Is it possible to request and will the request be honored, that only you read the the letter and not other people unless it wins.

Of course.

 

[Ennui]

I think I might write a letter, though not for consideration as a prizewinner (it wouldn't be very fair for staff to be allowed in on that, now would it?)

 

[Chris D]

Absolutely, usual competition rules apply.

No staff, affiliates or partners of Halflife2.net are permitted to enter the mailbag contest, etc. blah blah.

Yeah, submit something Ennui. It's about time you wrote something considering you're a content writer now

j/k

 

[Ennui]

Yeah, submit something Ennui. It's about time you wrote something considering you're a content writer now

Oh, aren't you a gaggle of giggles! Go get that damn content ready!

Surprisingly, we haven't had any like this yet

 

[Sulkdodds]

Whaat? Fack!

I had a good plan too.

 

[ríomhaire]

Whaat? Fack!

Give me your letter idea, we'll split the prize

 

[AJ Rimmer]

Yaaay! Writing contest!




Too bad I can't write anything with argumentation in it without getting confused:x

 

[Solaris]

Results come out tomorrow

 

[Chris D]

Results come out tomorrow

Probably going to extend it for a week or two as we've only had 14 mails

 

[Solaris]

Probably going to extend it for a week or two as we've only had 14 mails

Nooo.
End it tomorrow.
You've got to have a dead line, makes it more proffesional.

Pleeeaassseee.
I want to see who's won and what the prize is.

 

[Hectic Glenn]

(You can ignore my PM now Dman, got Pi on the case instead)

 

[^Ben]

I don't think you're going to get many more entrys if you prolong it Just announce the winner.

Maybe the winner should get to choose the next question

 

[Asknoone]

The prize is fantastic, I can't believe there's been so little mail.

 

[^Ben]

Signed pair of Gabe YFronts!

 

[Kadayi]

An extension makes some sense as HL : EP1 is now out so comparisions can be made

 

[DVS82]

was just wondering what's going on with this. results were supposed to have been out a week ago. i don't mind if the deadline's been extended but there's no reason why we should be kept in the dark about it.
