He had lost more than 100 posts due to spamming but managed to win.So, a spammer (big or small) finally won.

I lost posts because they were inside of other threads that were deleted for spam.  That does not necessarily mean that my posts were spam inside of those, it just means that the initial thread was spam.  Anyway, thank you to all for an amazing week, and thank you to HP, Buzz Corps, and the Gear Live site including Andru and all the moderators!

EDIT: Btw, sorry I couldnt tell you all earlier!  Contest rules, I couldnt tell you until it was “official” on the site 😊

Me & Buckeye both have lost the maximum points.If he wasn’t spamming then how come he was one of those who had the maximum points decresed ?Simple logic eh ?

We both had a large number of posts to begin with, so wouldn’t simple logic state that we would lose more points relative to others?  Also, a lot of the posts that were removed seemed to be from earlier in the contest, where I had posted more, and so it would make sense that I lost more posts if that were the case.

Anyway, Congratulations Buckeye, you deserved it.

I’ve tried my best & had the maximum points but only because i didn’t know the rules of posting one-liners on the blog, i’ve got myself disqualified.Anyways, all my fault & luck never favoured me ever.So, what can i say ? I can finally return my home after loosing in all of them.Heck i don’t even have a computer of my own,even a Pentium III & i won’t have one ever either.I think i shouldn’t have invested so much time & effort in this risking my health.When everybody were sleeping or taking break, i was still here & didn’t go to sleep for 6 days & was trying to contribute in the community.Maybe not all of my posts are that useful like you have, but i’ve tried my best but what more could i do ? I didn’t do any wrong things intentionally but some people can never win in life irrespective of what they do & how much effort & time they put to achieve something.Can you imagine how much time it took to post 750+ posts in 5 days & more than 150 on the blogs ? I’ve never thought that my posts would be considered as spam because i’m posting this kind of posts on several other websites from quite some time & nobody said me that i’m a spammer.Congrats anyways.

May seem like the case but there are so many contests that are run everyday on the internet. Ranging from everything.
This one just seemed to intrigue alot of people because it came across as easy.

Edit: Buckeye stanks for not responding to pms.

How did you know you had maximum points? He could have easily gotten more points by creating threads that had lots of replies and what not correct.

Post count is only half the points.

You really, really need to stop complaining. You didn’t “lose” because you got disqualified. You came in THIRD. You wouldn’t have won anyway! Geez…have some sportsmanship.

SkyFuser - 11th place, although I know at least 3 people above you would have been disqualified.

I would’ve come to number one position though if i wouldn’t have stopped posting because i had more than 1800 points just from the posting & that too was 3-4 days b4.I’m not saying anything against anybody.I was just saying to myself.And how i can show sportsmanship when i was about to win a $5000 worth of machine but couldn’t get it ? Sorry, i’m a very straightforward person & i say what i feel.So, sorry & congrats buckeye (i’ve congratulated him earlier also if you’ve not seen) but i hate myself for working so hard.

How do you get 1800 points from just posting if you never pasted the 600 post mark? Just out of curiosity.

@SkyFuser: just sent you a PM in response (was flooded with them so it was taking me some time to work through them, so not ignoring you haha)

Anyway, I am heading to bed as I have to get up in just four hours, and I just wanted to say thank you to everyone again for such a great week!

He didn’t. De didn’t get that the points that are displayed on the website are your GENERAL Gear Live Points, not the points for the HP contest.
