1000th PocketMatrix.com user!

[Chris Edwards]

Please give a warm welcome to GoblueIpaq, our 1000th registered user.

To celebrate this occasion, he will be given a copy of Snails, Argentum, and Dex-plor.

I'd like to thank everyone here for contributing to the success that has become PocketMatrix.com.<!>

Over the course of the next few weeks, 9 more copies of Snails will be given away at random to our already registered users. Good Luck!

what the hell?!? jeez, that lucky bastard.

uh... i mean, great idea chris! yes.

[accolon]

Congrats.

But stop giving away Snails everywhere, I PAID for it and I don't need a second copy.

[Paul]

i do. i'm so poor my pocket pc is made of cardboard and sticky tape!

*silence*

okay then, its a jornada!

*cries of despair*

yes. i know, i know...

[BlueRocket]

I gotta ask, how close was I??? I just registered this morning.... I should have procrastinated a little more, eh.

How about prizes for the youngest PM Member?

[suchiaruzu]

I'd rather see 9 copies of Argentum given away.

[Chris Edwards]

I'll see what I can do.

Once a day for the next 5 days we'll run the following script on our sql server:

Code: Select all

1	SELECT user_id, username, user_posts FROM phpbb_users WHERE user_lastvisit > 1017644400 AND user_posts > 50 ORDER BY RAND() LIMIT 1;
	1 lines; 0 keywds; 3 nums; 7 ops; 0 strs; 0 coms    Syntactic Coloring v0.4 - Dan East

This will return one random user from the databae that meets the following requirements:

Has visited the site since April 1, 2002.
Has more than 50 posts.

If you meet those requirements, you could win. Good Luck!

[Michael Y]

Why Snails? Why not Argentum? Or at least give people a choice

[GoblueIpaq]

SWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEET

And I thought I would never win anything............

THANKS POCKET MATRIX!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Chris Edwards]

We only were given 1 copy of Ag to give away. Perhaps when we get money we'll be able to buy stuff to give away

[Michael Y]

I assumed that; I was just joking

(yes, I know my sense of humor's a bit off)

[Annoying Snails Master]

Well, I certainlly think that's a great idea: except that almost everyone on PM has Snails...

So, how about prized to the person with the best user name? I think that would be cool!

And the person with the most on-topic posts- (that disqualifies Chriva).

Lol. I am actually writing this as an easy way to look at how many posts I have, as well as to get an idea out.

(Watch out PM, Here I come)

[Chris Edwards]

BlueRocket... you were 2 off #998

SnailsMaster... the random draw doesn't involve that much work on our part... you see that code i posted above? I simply paste that into a mysql client and run it on the server and it does all the work for me. You would have already qualified no matter what.
