Wow 8O I can't believe I won!

Just yesterday I was reading about someone else winning, and thinking: "Okay,.. 1000 people, 4 copies left, thats 1 in 250 chance of winning. whatever, I never win these kinds of things anyway."

Anyway, no, I don't own snails (not yet). I can't wait to play it :D

Thanks, Snails team for donating Snails!

Well actually,
Only about 100 people qualify (Have 50 posts or more)<br>And then of those people, you have to calculate that the Admins aren't in the running (since they most likely already have a copy) so that drops another 10 ppl off. So then you have a about a 4 in 90 (1 in 22.5) chance. Then take into consideration that Snails is the "Must Own App for the PPC" right now, you can probably take at least another 30 people off since they already own a copy. Now you are at 4 in 60 (1 in 15). URGH!! It's this Damn statisitc class this semester, it has turned me into someone who evaluates every statistic or odds I see. Oh well.<br><br>Congrats neway esw.
