[Halverson]

Gliss, you're going to make him wet himself with that news

[YoungMichael88]

Well snap! .. I'm going to send you a PM

[MissMurd3r84]

Considering my luck with the last lot of things I got off GH.. I am just hoping they arrive and don't get sent back. LOL.

[Glissant]

Hahaha. I'll get to that PM in the morning or after I work out tomorrow, YM . I'll only ask shipping for the thing anyway, so no worries. We'll talk about that via pm.


MissMurd3r, positive thoughts, please .

[duq]

Glad you got the keys Glissant!

[Glissant]

I'm typing on them as we speak <3. Thanks again!

[MissMurd3r84]

Giveaway Complete - Results at bottom of post
Alright. It took long enough for me to do this, but here it is.

Up for drawing is a set of OEM profile PBT caps with Gold print. It will also include a special item, which will not be announced (hope you like blue!).

To qualify, you must meet the following:

1. Have enough letters in your name to spell MOOSE. If you have all 5 letters, you get 2 entries, less letters, less entries. Below are the combinations of letters your username must contain, at a minimum, to get the amount of entries associated:
    M-O-O-S-E --- 2
    M-O-S-E or M-O-O-S --- 1
    M-S-E or M-O-S --- I will flip a coin for you. Heads and you get one entry, Tails and you get none
    M-S --- You have to win two consecutive coin flips in a row, both Heads, to get one entry
2. You have to have been a member before the time I made this post. (No makin' new accounts... ಠ_ಠ)
3. You can't have won something before in this thread, unless you have given away something. People who have given away something automatically get one entry, even if they don't have any moose letters in their name.
4. You have to take a picture when you receive the items, so that people see what the special surprise is. You also have to realize that I'm very busy, so shipping will not be automatic...

All posts must be past this point. I will draw a winner on Friday, April 12th, and should be able to mail items out the following day. Good luck!

Entries:
1 - Glissant
2 - duq
3 - jdcarpe
4 - mashby - pending two consecutive coin flips
ishumprod - pending coin flip
5 - YoungMichael88
6 - moonprismpwr
7 - codymaust - pending coin flip

[Jocelyn]

I'm only interested in the special item

PS - Do I get 4 entries with a 7 letter name?

[esoomenona]

I bet you wish you would've chosen Moselyn as a name now, huh?

[Jocelyn]

I bet you wish you would've chosen Moselyn as a name now, huh?

Oh wow, I totally misunderstood rule one lol

[mashby]

I'm only interested in the special item

Ditto, but this is fun regardless.

moose
mashby

Edit: I'm an idiot, I didn't understand the rule. So it looks like I can only make 2 letters. 

[esoomenona]

Hmm, maybe I wasn't clear enough about rule one... I meant that you have to have the letters in your name, not just the amount of letters. How should I word it to be more clear?

[Michael]

Where is round 2?

[Jocelyn]

Hmm, maybe I wasn't clear enough about rule one... I meant that you have to have the letters in your name, not just the amount of letters. How should I word it to be more clear?

You worded it well enough imo, but maybe change MOOSE to M-O-O-S-E or something. Mashby and I just got a little excited about the special item imo

[foxer]

It confused me so I'll just ask... Do I qualify?

[esoomenona]

Is that a little better?

Sorry, foxer, but no. You would need an M and S in your username to do so.

[Jocelyn]

It confused me so I'll just ask... Do I qualify?

Nope, "foxer", like "Jocelyn", only has three of five letters in Moose.

Edit - Actually foxer and I have OOE, so don't we get a coin flip? Or are M-S-E and M-O-S the only three letter combos that work?

[foxer]

So what he needs to explain better is that the person wanting to enter is that their username must be able to spell moose (Doesn't have to have 2 o's).

[jdcarpe]

Nope, "foxer", like "Jocelyn", only has three of five letters in Moose.

Edit - Actually foxer and I have OOE, so don't we get a coin flip? Or are M-S-E and M-O-S the only three letter combos that work?

Only if it were "fooxer" and "Joocelyn"

[esoomenona]

The letters I've listed under rule one are the only combos. You can't spell any moose without an M.

So what he needs to explain better is that the person wanting to enter is that their username must be able to spell moose (Doesn't have to have 2 o's).

That is pretty much exactly what I put... :/ I will put some more verbage in there to clarify. But as it says, if you DO have the two Os, along with the other letters, you get an extra entry.

I apologize if this drawing is a bit rough, but I have to represent for the mooses out there, so...

[esoomenona]

Okay... sigh. How is that?

[Mooselyn]

Well if that's the case I guess I'm in. You all KNEW I was going to be the first one to figure this out, right?

Edit - Don't go adding a post limit rule, because I'm already in lol

[Tym]

Kinda confused, but I have an "m" ?

[esoomenona]

Well if that's the case I guess I'm in. You all KNEW I was going to be the first one to figure this out, right?

... Um... well, are you really a new user, or just a sock puppet account for a user already here?

[Tym]

Joyclyn is disguise.

... Um... well, are you really a new user, or just a sock puppet account for a user already here?

You KNOW it's me, but I see nothing in the rules that does not allow for this. I'm not going to be upset if you change the rules 

[mashby]

Next up... Mooseby!

[esoomenona]

Well, I really didn't want to limit to amount of posts, because I wanted to give away to the community. Maybe I should limit it to you have to have been a member before I made my post?

[jdcarpe]

GH TOS forbid having more than one account.

You should do whatever you want. I was being a smartass, but a following the rules smartass. FWIW, I seriously doubt too many people, if any, have very many of those those keys in their name.

Yes, born on date must be before date of your post.

[CPTBadAss]

Awwwww moose, why you gotta tease me like this. I have 1 letter in moose

[Tym]

MoosyTym Doesn't have the right ring to it.

[esoomenona]

Before I came up with it, I browsed a bit through posts and saw at least some people that qualify. At first, it was just all five, but I thought that wasn't fair, so I gave some lower standards to help the non-actual-mooses out there.

2. You have to have been a member before the time I made this post. (No makin' new accounts... ಠ_ಠ)

Rule changer!!!


PS - Again, I really don't mind. I'm just having fun, but I'm going to run a check on all usernames in a little and I bet less than 10 of all users qualify lol
