Default FINALLY! The Last of My New Year's Giveaway Winners

It has taken me quite a while to figure out just who the winners are for the final two software giveaways that I'm adminstering. First, it was difficult to collect reliable information on the ages of Thoughts team members and the number of Pocket PCs they own. Then, I had to wade through the hundreds of entries everybody submitted and find out who came the closest to meeting the contest criteria.

But, here they are:

For correctly guessing that the Thoughts team collectively owns exactly 32 WORKING Pocket PCs, bblock and kati42 will each receive a free copy of Spb Gamepack from Spb Software House.

And, several people came very close to guessing that the combined ages of the entire Thoughts team is 294 years(!). From among those closest guesses, icatar and Angstadt were randomly selected to each receive a copy of Spb Quick from Spb Software House.

Don't be too discouraged if you didn't win anything during our New Year's Giveaway Extravaganza, though. There was so much interest generated in this site and in the sites of the companies that provided the prizes that we've been inundated with developers eager to support more giveaways. We'll be handing out more freebies before long...

Huh? Last of? But what about FlexWallet and Lextionary, and maybe a few others? I'm pretty sure I got the FlexWallet and Lextionary contests along with a few other members. In fact, it's the software I've been waiting on since the contest. :? (Not that I don't completely appreciate everything else so far and my great luck!)

I guess what I should have written is that these were the last contests that I administered. I believe there may be a couple others to be doled out by other Thoughts team members.

I'll make that more clear.

Ahhhh! So some members of the team are a little sensitive about their age, eh?

I shouldn't say anything, I'm almost 32, but I stopped keeping track at 30. I remember a long time ago when there was that show on TV, "Thirtysomethings", and thinking, "Man! Those people are old!"

You saying that despite the number of posts my ranking should still be "I just joined for the contests!"?

Default So....

Does this mean I am the only one who won nothing

Just kidding, it was a fun day. I feel like I win everyday I lurk on this site. This site is awesome with or without the freebies. As a new Axim owner (no PDA before it, unless you count the REX i had for a month) this site is great!
