I have selected a winner for the Killer Gaming Rig #6 and am waiting for
confirmation....check your mail, check it twice, it could be you. And
remember, if the winner doesn't reply...we will select another winner.
The clock is ticking!!!! Good luck!!
KGR #6 Info -Steve
There is a "slight" delay in drawing a
winner for the KGR #6. Some jerk spammed the contest with thousands of
e-mail addresses, over and over. I am going through and removing all of
his entries, and will then be able to pull a legitimate winner. No biggy...things
will be on track by Wednesday for a Winner. I
have contacted the person responsible for screwing up the contest, and
have "persuaded" him into not ever entering a contest again,
or I would turn you guys loose on him.
I have also
updated the Best Buy Fiasco page again today...go
see what we have cooking.

Ever heard the saying "Nice guys always finish
last..."?? I have a website dedicated to the best giveaways and
contests on the planet...bar none. We give away more free
stuff in a year than most people make in yearly income, and too me...I
think that's pretty nice.
So today, I stop
by McDonalds drive thru to pick up some lunch for me and the kids. There
is a SUPER pretty girl working the window, very friendly (
note to
self: gotta go
to McD's more often...damn )
I drive home and notice, the girl gave me $20 too much change. So being
the nice guy that I am, jump back in the car and rush up to McDonald to
give this girl the money....and get pulled over by the cops. DAMN.
Here's where it gets funny...the Officer reads Hypothermia and [H]ardOCP,
and he recognizes me. So we B.S. for a little bit, we talk about Asia
Carrera being my friend...then he goes back to his car....
...and still
gives me a ticket  !!!
What an Assclown. I made it back to give the Drive Thru Window Hottie
her money back, and have a ticket to show for it. <OUCH>
KGR #6 stuff

Doing the final assembly, burn in and testing on the Killer Gaming Rig
6....since the hole pattern on the GeForce4 is different than all
previous GeForce cards, the video card water block I had will not work
with it, I am looking around for some last minute solutions... we'll see
what I can dig up. Here's a look at the 3GHz Monsta....

I have some very cool contest action coming up as

The final components for the KGR #6 will arrive anytime now, so make
sure you enter to win this awesome
machine.
We have a bunch of cool
stuff coming up for you, with any luck...some naked pictures of Levelord
and Tom Mustaine from Ritual
Entertainment. I was teasing Tom about sending the Police after
him to get our interview with him finished up, and this was the response
I got:
Haha, The cops dropped by and I showed them what we were working on and they understood why I haven't had time!
Heh, Your interview is still on top of the list. I haven't had time to wash clothes since
December, so...yeah.
Ummm, that's
gross...so either the Ritual gang stink bad enough to kill off
everything in a 20 mile radius, or they are sitting around designing
their new game in the nude. Either way...we'll bring you photographic
evidence. !!!
You heard it first here.

Only a few days left to enter the Killer Gaming
Rig #6 Contest.... you will never forgive yourself if you don't at least
get in there and enter ONCE and try to win this awesome machine.
I have a handful of stuff I
am looking at giving away in our net contests, I might put it to a vote
again and let you guys chose what you want given away next.

A random Asia picture today... I have had this one
for awhile, but I figured I had hogged it long enough. I don't know
about you, but all I can think about after seeing this picture is there
is no need for cuffs...I would go willingly!!!
Being
friends with someone famous like Asia is awesome...for obvious reasons,
but the added benefit is that I get to share with you guys, and that
kicks ass too.

What do you to satisfy the LAN urge but you are so crippled up from a
back injury that it hurts to just stand still, let alone try to haul all
your stuff to a LAN Party?? Easy, have your friends like Justin and Chad
TeVelde bring their Xbox over...steal the wife's TV out of the bedroom
and get some Xbox LAN action going. Fun stuff...even if you are
physically hosed like I am. Kyle got me going since he went and put
together a
special LAN box for a weekend gig...made me want to get in on some
LAN-age too.
I also have
some Best Buy News coming up, probably tonight on the Best Buy GeForce4
info page. We have been contacted by the Attorney General's office about
looking into this matter for us.

Stuff -Steve
I don't know how many times I have to stress the
importance of having a valid e-mail address when entering these
contests. I have one person who never claimed the KT266A Motherboard in
the Hardware-a-Day contest, entered a bunch of times too.
..... BTW: David
Gobaud from Las Vegas
needs to contact me too, I asked him for an address and phone number and
he sent me a Mailboxes Etc. address, and no phone number. If you know
David, have him contact me...the SECOND e-mail he gave me was bad as
well.
Let me
explain something to everyone, Mailbox Etc. ( and other mailbox
services ) can not receive an insured package from FedEx that requires a
signature from you. When you are contacted for your prize, please make
sure you send correct shipping information and a phone number. With just
under two weeks left for the Killer Gaming Rig #6 to be drawn, I do not
want to end up having the Winner lose out on a machine worth thousands
of dollars because they gave me wrong shipping info. It costs a LOT of
money to FedEx a complete system to the winner, if they don't claim it
the first time, another winner will be selected who WILL claim their
prize.

All the Hardware
a Day Contest winners have been sent a notification, so
check your e-mail and see if you have won. I haven't received
confirmation from all my winners yet. So make sure to double check your
mail. I have more interview action coming up....And I have been thinking
about doing another Ask Asia here in the near future where you guys get
to submit the questions, and if I use your question you win a prize.
That's always fun....I hadn't thought about that in a while until my
regular readers that hang out at Blues
News pointed out we hadn't done one recently. (
Blue makes
fun of me cause of my little "hang up" over Asia being a
Computer Geek / Porn Star....I keep trying to tell everyone, that's the
perfect kind of woman Computer Geek - Gaming chicks are hard to come
by!!! )
While you're
here...enter the Killer Gaming Rig 6 Contest below...only two weeks left
to win that bad ass system.
Weekend
Stuff -Steve
Not sure how many of you guys have had a chance to visit The
Smoking Gun, but I am a regular visitor...I love that place.
Well, the fellas hooked me up with a couple T-Shirts for me and the
wife, pretty damn snazzy.

Working on a few color coordinated projects around the Casa. This system
is a nice little water cooled system I am doing based on an Athlon
1900+, nForce motherboard, GeForce4 Ti4600...the works. Finding black
components is a little bit of a pain, but worth it in the end, color
coordinating your system is a sure fire way to get "ooooh's and
aaahh's" when people see your system.
The ass kicking components
on the inside is what wow's the crowd when the sit down and actually use
it. Very nice.
