Top Commentators Of February 2008
Feb 28th, 2008 by Tariq Bamadhaj
I know it’s not the end of February 2008 yet but the prize giveaway for the top 3 commentators was to end at 12.00pm Eastern Time on February 28th 2008. It was a great competition and I am really happy with how it turned. Thanks to all who participated.
The competition starter out with PJMDS having a clear lead over the rest and at a point, spmwinkel and maceyr were trading second and third places. It got really interesting when a spammer assumed maceyr’s nick which added to her post count. Then, at the last week, spmwinkel managed to get within striking distance of PJMDS and I thought it was going to be a fight to the finish but I guessed wrong. Which brings me to the list of winners.
The Winners
As you can see from the screen shot above, PJMDS wins first prize with 95 comments. spmwinkel is a close second with 94 comments and maceyr rounds up the top 3 with 60 comments. Notable mention too to Xavier Baez and melvynadam with 10 comments each but I’m sorry guys, no prizes for you
The winners will be contacted shortly via email
How did you find the competition? Did you enjoy it? What do you think I could change to make it better? And should I have another in March 2008? Let me know your thoughts in the comments below.
























OMG
did I win something 
I can’t remember wining something on the internet except maybe knowledge and virtual friends, internet for me is mostly about loosing
Congratulations to spmwinkel and maceyr, they know lot more about the PPC world than me, I’m just here to learn
Yay! Cool, basically EtenBlogDotCom now gives me any game/application of choice, considering a average price of $20.
And I haven’t even started playing Spb AirIslands!
Congrats PJMDS and Maceyr as well!
PJMDS - how can you say we know a lot more about PPC world then you if you’ve created your own PocketPC software?
* How did you find the competition?
Very much fun!
* Did you enjoy it?
Yes sir, very much! Both commenting, and winning.
* What do you think I could change to make it better?
Nothing! It’s really simple. You write articles, we comment.
* And should I have another in March 2008?
Why would I say no? 

If you’ve got the money…
Honestly, for now I’m planning to stick around with or without contest, but would there be a reason for us to say you shouldn’t run another contest?
This is my 100 comment, lets party
Hi spmwinkel, my PocketPC software isn’t very good, it’s made in visual basic and I know that I’m not even good at it, my code has lots of bugs and very low eficiency
Check http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/virtuallabs , they let you do software in a virtual enviroment for free, it’s very cool, thanks microsoft.
Regarding this blog I think the same has spmwinkel, I wish the best for Tariq and ETEN BLOG
That IS pretty nice of Microsoft! They must make enough money with Office to be able to offer that for free.
Tariq thanks for the 19.31 EUROS
(30.00 USD=(19.7117 EUR - taxes))
Sorry about being late in commenting. I am a bit busy and dealing with a persistent cough that probably isn’t going away until late spring. Congratulations are in order for PJMDS and spmwinkel! And it’s very nice to see that others are participating here.
PJMDS, you must be kidding when you said that I know more about the PPC world than you, considering that you are a PPC programmer. I’m still very much a PPC newbie but maybe an intermediate Palm user, but I’m trying to learn.
How did I enjoy it? Very. It was definitely a lot of fun, especially in the beginning when there was a race between the three of us. But, once I stopped commenting, it was no doubt that I couldn’t stay with the rest of you. But it’s a lot of fun. I really didn’t do this for the prize but just for the fun.
I think with regards to the contest, I would probably opt for a software prize instead of monetary prize but that is me.
Keep it up!
Software prize eh? Alright will keep that in mind. Looks like you guys really enjoyed it, I might just do another next month
