STOCKTOBER2! A month of prizes and sweeties from VeryPC


Recommended Posts

@Little-Miss To save you the trouble of rereading all of our nonsense, here are the pics that have earned extra entries:

1) My discovery of Al's previous career: Click for Al Hoskins.

2) @hallb15 created an Alwok: Click for Alwok.

3) @sonofsanta showed us his Wooly Willy: Click for Wooly Willy.

4) @X-13 made something which still haunts my dreams: Click for arrrrghhhghhhh noooooo.

 

Every single one of those links go to something different on the app...

Tres weird.

 

[i'm going to ignore the misspelling.]

 

Yes, trees are weird. What with their leaves changing colour and taking in CO2 rather than O2.

 

Who do they think they are?

I has a cold, sorry for quality :(

Have u got a linky to the wall

Here's your "link":

It's a real wall, not a profile wall. There's your submission on the bottom right.

 

You already have the max 3 entries btw, so you can relax in the calming knowledge that you have as good a chance of winning the PS4 as anyone in the competition can have.

Woaaaaaaaaahhh there Al....

I can spot 2! Yes 2! of my pictures on the wall there. There's 'Al Hoskins' but also 'Dr Al Burner PhD' at the top there. I think, according to the 'the rules' that means another entry?

As there is no chance in hell of me doing a Morgan Freeman impression, did you say we could send things in? Like pictures etc?

Uhuh - be you usual creative self and I'm sure you'll earn the bonuses you deserve.

 

Plus, don't rule yourself out of the Morgan Freeman competition - there are options for the impersonation that take your own voice out of the equation completely. Exhibit A: @hallb15's speak and spell style - http://www.edugeek.net/forums/our-advertisers/123356-stocktober2-month-prizes-sweeties-verypc-37.html#post1065303

 

There's be other chances for bonuses coming up later too, so if you hang around the thread long enough you'll be able to max out your total entries at the limit of 3 per entrant.

Right, gonna watch me a bit of Shawshank, get me a mic, channel the More Than white-suite-dude and take a stab at this. Where's the passage to read...? It'll take all morning to trawl back through to find it...

It could be "One bonus entry only for wall pictures"

 

I have 2 on there as well. Bearshark and "WHAT"

 

 

Also, Look what I just got!

It's so beautiful... And it's the only computer that'll be outputting to HDMI. Not even MINE does that.

 

I don't want to... but I have to RM-ify it. [sorry Al and everyone at VeryPC.]

I wait all weekend excited at the prospect of a prize at long last (I don't win many things) and then all I win is a pack of obsolete RAM!

 

I think I feel an art project coming on...maybe some sort of mobile using RAM modules...might keep some kids quiet for a while :)

 

Despite the disappointment over the prize I shall at least bask in the glory of winning for once...

 

Thanks Al and all at VeryPC

Don't plan that mobile just yet @CESIL - There's an announcement coming up in the next vid about options for unwanted prizes. Be sure to tune in later. We've not sent the first batch of prizes out yet, so everyone who wants to choose "option B" will be given the chance.

@X-13 is correct @sparkeh bonuses are based on number of categories participated in rather than submissions per category (don't want to make it toooo easy to max out), so your 2 pics only earn you 1 bonus I'm afraid. However, stick around and you'll soon get another chance to bag that final extra entry with another bonus entry category (that's if you don't submit a Morgan Freeman impersonation, in which case you can get your 3rd entry pronto).

P.S. your multiple contributions are very appreciated though, so feel free to keep 'em coming!

Glad to hear it. See below for phrase:

 

Okay then - anyone who posts audio or video (with audio, obviously!) of themselves speaking the following phrase in their best Morgan Freeman voice will get a bonus entry into STOCKTOBER2!

"Now the only thing you can think of, is the sound of my voice, man it sounds good. You know what else is good? Stocktober. Now I'm not talking about regular prizes being given out, why, they're giving out a PS4. And if you mess with Al or his crew, they'll send Emma around, and nobody wants that! I am the Morgan Freeman." Then say your EduGeek username so we can keep track.

Best impression decided by votes in the thread (you can't vote for yourself though) wins a big bag of Sweeties from the South Yorkshire branch of Wonka Enterprises (sweet warehouse near our factory). Anyone hanging out on the thread can cast 1 vote.

Entries close at midnight tomorrow night, so don't dally. We'll run the vote throughout Thursday and Friday this week with Winner announced on Friday afternoon.

Surely that is worthy of losing an entry :troll:

Time to make a tit of myself.
Your worried about making a tit of yourself? You weren't the one singing to a webcam....

Time to make a tit of myself. I won't be going into voice acting anytime soon

Morgan Freeman

 

You sound VERY American [Texas Cowboy levels of American]... Then at the end you sound VERY British.
