X-13 Posted October 11, 2013 Posted October 11, 2013 [ZOIDBURG] Awwwww. [/ZOIDBURG] I swear I've talked to via mic through steam... you should know. Possibly. I'm not really sure what I sound like...
LeightonJames Posted October 11, 2013 Posted October 11, 2013 I swear I've talked to via mic through steam... you should know. Possibly. I'm not really sure what I sound like... I've never spoken to you and even I know you are a guy!
X-13 Posted October 11, 2013 Posted October 11, 2013 (edited) I've never spoken to you and even I know you are a guy! Not all women are female. Much as this discussion annoys me sometimes... it is fun to confuse people. Edited October 11, 2013 by X-13 2
mac_shinobi Posted October 11, 2013 Posted October 11, 2013 Not all women are female. Much as this discussion annoys me sometimes... it is fun to confuse people. In your case I presume you say it like 'WOAH' Men
X-13 Posted October 11, 2013 Posted October 11, 2013 In your case I presume you say it like 'WOAH' Men Considering I noticed Tom's filming faux pas as soon as it happened... I'm going to deny that claim. [if you're implying what I think you are.]

VeryPC Posted October 11, 2013 Author Posted October 11, 2013 And following up on the vote result (you will notice a slight continuity error in this vide as I decided to do the last post whilst we were waiting for the vid to process) here comes the triple prize reveal: http://youtu.be/n4tPLY55g20 Congrats folks. Remember entries are still open, so if you get in now you'll be in the draw from tomorrow onwards until your name is drawn (but will be put back before the star prize PS4 draw). To enter just PM me your professional contact details if you are a UK based IT manager/tech type, OR if you've entered a VeryPC competition on EduGeek before, you can just speak up in the thread that you want back in and we'll add you. Have a great weekend everyone! Al 2
Rawns Posted October 11, 2013 Posted October 11, 2013 I swear I've talked to via mic through steam... you should know. Possibly. I'm not really sure what I sound like... Nope, not spoken to you. I plugged one in a few nights ago for SR3? You had dinner, I went to the kitchen then forgot to come back!!!

Al Booo! I've been sold short! @CamelMan voted for me too! +1 for Rawns (or should that just be 1....) Technically that puts me in 2nd place. I'll take that. The better man won though. Kudos @nephilim! Edited October 11, 2013 by Rawns

The better man won though. Kudos oops sorry @Rawns and @CamelMan I thought I'd trawled every vote on the thread as I was adding them up. You guys are keeping it so busy it's easy to miss the odd post. I need a Stocktober minion for thread admin! Luckily, it was not a close vote, so I don't think any insinuations of foul play will stand up. Damn the democratic process, corruption always creeps in. Al Edited October 11, 2013 by VeryPC 1

FishCustard Posted October 11, 2013 Posted October 11, 2013 Wahey, a VeryPC T-shirt! And I wonder if I can build a table-snooker-playing Raspberry Pi bot...? Well, guess now I can find out!

sparkeh Posted October 12, 2013 Posted October 12, 2013 Looking at the tentacle positioning, Octo is riding side saddle. How cute. Trying to work out the bear's name. Think it might be Mr. Bearsworthy. Discuss.

VeryPC Posted October 12, 2013 Author Posted October 12, 2013 Al, will we be able to get a VeryPC t-shirt if we DON'T win a stock2ber prize? [Or if we do win and want to keep it.] For the time being T-shirts will be only for booby prize winners and as swapsies for non-booby prize winners. There may be as yet undecided post competition opportunities to acquire these items, but I can't speculate yet. Gotta keep them rare so when they show up on Antiques Roadshow 2063 the robot version of Fiona Bruce (just taking a moment...) can announce a value of like, a squillion Mars-bucks. Al 2

Need to check my file back at work on Monday to see if I've already awarded you a bonus entry for wall-pic before I declare this a bonus. ALSO - it kinda looks like the hunt is over judging by those crosshairs - barring any last second interventions by Jack Ryan et al. Al
