Today is a Big Day - Contest Time!

BRK » 11 June 2007 » In Blog, Store »

Perhaps you are aware of the tradition we have at BRK where we celebrate milestones in your participation here. Without you all coming in, trashing the place a little, and leaving your 1/2 empty bottle of Diet Pepsi all over the woodwork, it would just be BRK yelling into the wind. We love you folks; we’re glad you visit.

But anywho, sometime today we’re gonna bust the 100,000 visitors mark and if that ain’t cause to celebrate, then this hunter should just pick up a wand and start pranging about.

So how do we typically do this thing we do?

You, the reader, take a screenshot of you being the 100,000th visitor. We’ll get about 5-10 of those in the BRK Email Silo for reasons only SiteMeter can explain. We’ll take those entries and select one through a randomness algorithm involving Quattro, the BRK Yellow Lab, and upon which bush he chooses to bless on our nightly walk. Totally scientific, that’s how we roll.

The prize? We’re torn. If we offered a selection from the BRK Store, and the winner turned it down, we’d be crushed. But the standard “Get Your Email Question or Statement in a WoW Insider Column” doesn’t seem to have the panache of a BRK “Any Time is Beer Time” Stein.

That settles it. The person who submits a screenshot of them being the visitor #100,000 on BRK the Blog - and in the case of a tie, the winner selected by the BRK Yellow Lab - gets to pick Fame: the WoW Insider question/comment; or Fortune: the fabulous BRK Store Single-Item Shopping Spree.

The counter has been moved to the top of the page for easy screenshooting. Good Luck, and remember! No Photoshopped Entries. /shakes fist in the air

    I have a 100K pic, I just can’t email it from work. I hope you will wait until tonight to make a choice?

    I’ve got a 100,000 screenshot too! That makes at least 3 of us…

    I’m one of the lucky 100,000 visitors too. /cheer

    100,014… damn, I got too busy reading my realm forums to check! Curse you people spamming the refresh button! Quit using spolitz & hax.

  8. Goeben on June 11th, 2007 3:59 pm

    We’ve received seven “winning” entries so far. Poor Quattro is gonna have a long, long walk ahead of him. Now, back to the Hunter Insanity.

    I got one in as well! Now if only the wonderful Random LEWT Gods are on my side! and BRK would make a lovely Mouse pad since I think Anakun would look silly in the G-String! Not that I don’t love the Big Red Kittty on the G-string…(Anakun imagining tons of hot orc females in BRK gstrings and nothing else)….
    BRK FTW!

    where is this fabled hit meter? i’m not seeing it- at the top of the page or anywhere…. sniff…

  14. Damh on June 11th, 2007 5:58 pm

    El Hit-o Meter-o is back at the bottom-o of the page-o again. The contest-o is finet-o, so home-o it go-o.

    poop, i wasn’t even looking.

  16. Moony/Kala on June 11th, 2007 7:05 pm

    Bah! I’m depressed that you can have a contest for such a number. I think I’d pee myself if I ever received 2,000 visits! Psh, let alone comments.

    *mopes in corner*

    Grats… I guess.
