Refreshed the FAQ Bounties back up to 50, announced (and sent Micheal
the contest guy, who just got back from vacation) the April and May
FOTM/ROTM winners and the lagging won bounties. Yay! --- Once upon a time everything was lovely, but that was before I had to deal with people. |

You are aware that people will now come in here asking the other big question right (hint: it involves the Sys Note ^_~)? --- If it's meant to be, then it's not meant for me. If it's not meant to be, then it's meant for me. |

Actually, I've been wanting to do the thing with the sysnote for ages;
basically, it's just a script that checks to see if you have any
submissions (complete FAQs, larger reviews) that you didn't submit for
the FOTM/ROTM, and that you live in the US or Canada. Basically, just trying to boost entries, since a lot of newer contributors may not even know about it, and the winner's lists almost always have the same folks over and over. Nothing wrong with that, but why not encourage some new blood? Besides, it seems to be working, as entries have shot up today. --- Once upon a time everything was lovely, but that was before I had to deal with people. |

True, guess you just startled me (and some others) with it. I guess I
should have thought about seeing if my Warioland 4 FAQ could stand a
chance, but too late on that now seeing as I submitted that in in March. --- If it's meant to be, then it's not meant for me. If it's not meant to be, then it's meant for me. |

Is there really no way for those of us who don't live in the USA or
Canada to qualify? It is so sad. I have already missed out on a FAQ
bounty and I know that is the same for many other people too. :( --- "Chop the tree from the inside out" Keerg's Fables |

I would enter, but I don't really want any of those prizes, simply because I wouldn't really use any of them. --- Current Amount of FAQs: 18 (5034 Total KB) Current KB FAQ Rank: Prolific |

I'd probably enter if there were more region friendly prizes. But like
you said, you are an American Company. Though I don't see how it's much
different to do an Amazon.ca gift card rather than an amazon.com, I
mean it's the same thing and you'd end up giving the contributor in
canada $53 instead of $50. Plus more options. --- http://www.gamefaqs.com/features/recognition/38449.html |

Good to know, that System Notification thing caught me off guard at first. --- He walks amongst us, but he is not one of us |

Cool. A few bounties half interest me, and the sysnote sounds funky, look forward to seeing it. --- 51/80 Full Circle | Y.T.W.S.R. | FCB History - http://www.crazyreyn.com/fcbhistory/ |

.Like threetimes said - a bit of a shame people from 'abroad' (e.g.
Europe, like me) cannot enter for and win prizes... not that it's such
a big deal, though. --- .Nobody is perfect , I'm nobody. :-Þ |

That sysnote thing sounds pretty handy since I forgot to submit my Oh
No More Lemmings FAQ back when it was eligible, and I have a really
good feeling it would have won. --- Now what the deal is is you gonna have to get over there and figure out what that's all about |

>_> The sys note thing is pretty nice since it reminded me to submit mine. --- (\ _ /) ~Bunn!e~{Ç}~•{¤Shådõw¤}•~{Ø}~ Hardcøre™ (='.'=) http://boards.ammostar.net - DJ+ - Join us!!! |
