Title: Which Contest Was Better?
Post by: M3_DeL on January 07, 2003, 06:00:00 PM

something to start off so it aint so empty here.......

this is kinda what it will be like only more intriging questions like who's most likely to burn their house down while modding their xbox.

Its been 2 and 1/2 hours and they are up to 50 pages!!!!

There are quite a few one post wonders in their

I think this one will have a larger turn out than the matrix givaway.

I can't really answer this one until the winners are announced for this one....

If I don't win, I'd say the Matrix contest was better IF I **do** win, I'll have to wait until I get and install the X2L and compare it to the Matrix before deciding....

There sure are a LOT of entries so far.

I want to know how they all find out too! Where the fuck do they come from!!? As far as contests go, I think that MAtrix one was better. It was calmer. . .and I won. . .

X2 Contest is by and far the runaway winner.

With the Matrix contest.. I promised everyone that if I won.. I would take pics of it clearly modding one of my logs (all it was good for)

With X2...  I would by another XBOX for it!  Give it a good loving home.. lots of attention.

I was just thinking.. with the last contest... hundreds of lurkers who would never have signed up did... and became the NEWB influx.  

What is going to happen now with all of the new 1 post wonders hopping aboard the X-S/X2 train?

Now that they actually have taken the time to set up the account.. they may now feel "obligated" to participate.  

God Help Us!

God Bless Team Executer!

That was my thoughts as well... I honestly feel that my time here is severely limited.. This is just crap.. This site did not need that publicity.. nor did the scene.. :(

... "so Mr. Dodo.. you gonna lead the way?"

well they both are great for even picking xbox-scene for this, although we are the best on the net, anyway my vote goes to both for the dedication period, and believe me most of the 1st posters are from x-s, not knowing this was the reason they didn't win in the matrix contest, cheating doesn't get u far nor does it get u a chip, well good luck to all, and thanks to the contest donors and x-s for railing them in,

I think they should have limited to people over 10 posts. I mean isn't it better to have people entering a competition who don't just come here for a competition? i.e. the 1 posters. And yes there are a lot of them.

I don't know about that.
A posting limit usually just ends up with alot of spamming from new people.

I think they where both good.
But the X2 team did give 200!

Wha.. huh? Since when has that EVER been the case is a scene such as this? Was more people jumping on the Dreamcast bandwagon better for the scene? Show me any scene of this nature, console backups, pc backups, DSS stuff that has ever been BETTER with more people?

I think he may have meant "A bigger contest is a better contest", meaning more prizes. But that's just how I read it.

Edit:

Good lord: almost 3000 entries in half a day.

i dont think its very fair when people like me spend hours upon hours in the XS scene, (though my posts dont show it, I use the forums very very often i just lurk around and help when no one else is or if i have a great idea)  There shouldnt allowed to be any winners with 1 post at the time of signing up, or unless they can justify themself as a true xbox hacker, too many people just wanted a cheap way to pirate MS.  ITS BULLSHT
