Oh no! Turns out it was just another internet scam, classic


Should have expected this level of skullduggery when the prize was top tier lol

Well I dunno wtf reggie did but w/e i guess lol he got 300th post. (well technically he deleted his 300th post but he was the next person to post with a picture after his post-deleting spree so...)
(yes I went though and counted every single post, including the deleted ones!)

congrats?

will make the picture whenever i get time

I'd say we can keep it going and let the 500th post win a picture too buuuut....i don't want to have to count though all those posts again lol soooo...maybe next time ill do a raffle or some kind of contest.

and of cooourrrseee your avatar has lots of plants and foliage in the look....what I struggle the most with making!!1!

Wait so him pulling that crap stunt actually got him the win..? That's super lame. The winner should be the person who has the number 300 in the top right corner of their post.. But not going to cry about it, it's your decision obviously.

Like Eugeen said earlier( I think it was Eugeen, I am literally too lazy at the moment to look), It kinda has to be that way, Like someone could see they was beat to the 300, Delete one of their posts from the past and then become the new 300 comment. So yeah. though i guess it could've been made more simpler by saying "If you delete any of your past post, you can't be eligible to win" Or "Post a screenshot of you with the 300 post on your comment when posting a picture of your character when winning" Or sumtin like that idk.

I am just a genius tbh. #ShouldDoItAgainToGet500

You may have won the contest but I feel like the rest of us are winners, by not sinking to your level

He didn't exactly "Sink"He did win fair and square. It was already discussed and talked about earlier in the thread that deleted post would also count and had to count to make things legitimate. As Eugeen said earlier

You kind of have to count deleted messages as part of the number for this to work legitimately.
When we are near post count 301 there’s no way of telling who got the original win since people can delete messages beforehand and afterwards which shoves the whole postcount out of order. Plus inspect element is a thing which removes the possibility for legitimate evidence


Sorry for making this more complicated than it is supposed to be but it’d be more fair before someone genuinely gets left out even if it’d be an accident

Whether or not you like the fact deleted post count or not, You can't really deny the fact that Eugeen has a really good point, Which is why it was the way it was.  

Hey Coco remember that cool RNG name picker Dusty made, can we use that next time? It is fully automated and it’s a shame we just used it that one time  

The 303 one will count as a winner or ?  

I understand the whole having to count deleted posts in order to get the correct number.. But deleting 30+ posts in a ROW in order to get yourself the 300th post is kind of uhh.. Unfair to everyone else? I could see if he did like 2-3.. But he literally deleted 37? Posts consecutively in the matter of 5 minutes just to get the win.

So basically, at post 150 or whatever the post count was that CoCo awarded last, I could've pulled the same stunt but instead of 37 I could've done it 150 times or whatever and that would've been fine? Just seems kind of ridiculous and unfair to everyone else who wanted a chance at winning.

You could have, and you didn't. Not meaning to be rude, but I thought ogf the idea first. Outside the box thinking, maybe you could have done the same. Sorry, and I do feel a bit bad for doing that..  

I knew this was a possibility from the start but I didn’t bother doing it myself because I don’t mind it if someone else wins and I didn’t want to start drama, I agree it’s a cheap method but it does count with the rules that were set.

If the next one will be through a raffle I’ll surely try my luck though

I'm not super happy with the stunt either but w/e. This was just a fun little random thing I wanted to do. Next time I'll probably use the raffle thing dusty made or do something that's not so cheat-able lmao. We shall see.  

Coco, sneaks in and wins her own contest!

Now that would be an awesome Christmas story

Merry Christmas season everyone and take it’s easy on the ol Nog  

merry christmas to whomever posts after me  

300th post anyway :')
