"Now THAT'S a Challenge!" Badge Book Contest

[Mayhem]

Sorry punkapoonies, the contest is over.

[BadgeBabe]

THANK YOU so much!!! I am so happy to be a winner!!
I have to tell you all, this could not have come on a better day. Maybe it will be the start of GOOD LUCK for me.

My sweet dog has been stricken with a sudden illness and is very close to death. He is in an animal speciality hospital tonight. That's why I am just now " checking in" with my fave peeps.  :'( :'(

I've cried more today than I think I ever have in my entire life, because it does look like my furbaby won't make it.
However, tonight, you have given me a big HUGE smile.

Thank you for a very unexpected gift. I really needed this, like a hug.  O0

PC staff and all fellow posters, you are the best!!!

[Mayhem]

Sorry to hear about your dog.  :(

Homer went to bed so there won't be anymore badge books processed tonight.

However, please email him anyways with your pogo name and we'll process it first thing in the morning for you  :)

[BadgeBabe]

Hi, Mayhem,
That's just fine, of course. :) You are very sweet to tell me...
Thank you also for your well wishes for my little guy. I am hoping against hope that the definitive diagnosis will not be what the specialists have prepared us for, pending his biopsy results from the lab.

CONGRATS to all the other winners and especially the very deserving special 5 posters. :)
Several of you, and you know who you are, keep this board a very fun place. :)

HUGS!! ;::

I'm not special?

gg everyone

[Tara]

Bubbles and everyone else who is pointing that out about "special people"  I believe what happened was that the administrators gave the 5 extra books to the top 5 posters.  I could be wrong and Homer or Mayhem correct me if I am.  I didn't ask Homer or even know anything about it until after the contest and as a matter of fact, I still haven't asked him why the 5 of us got recognition.

He posted this exactly:

In addition to the 25 names listed above we are giving away 5 special recognition badge books to the following members:

I don't know why I feel as though I have to defend myself, but I do.  4 of the 5 of us already purchased our books the minute they came out yesterday morning. So that shows you we had no idea.

Thank you again Homer and Mayhem and PogoCheats.  And WTG to all the winners  O0

Please don't think I'm upset Tara. I'm not the least bit jealous/upset. So don't think that okay? I'm just wondering how they choose the 5 of you.

I don't think that, but you weren't the only person that said something. I am just explaining what I think it is considering we are the top 5 posters and its not about favoritism or anything like that. If it was about favoritism my number would of been the winning number  :P  Just kidding..Don't let your panties get in a bunch.

[bubblegum]

Let me correct myself...sorry was getting ahead of myself there.  Anyway.....good going winners

Congrats Tara
I am new here but I think if the Administration wanted to honor 5 special people, then we should be all saying Congrats to them as well as the other people who won the contest.  I have been reading through the topics and I think all of the 5 special people that they honored are well deserving of winning. I saw how much each of them have helped out in the forum.  I think we should all be happy for all the winners.

[Tara]

Well if they are going by the top 5 posters nanners has 1357 and I have 2270 so they must have used a differnt method to choose.

If you look in the forum stats you will find this Bubbles


Besides Homer, it sure looks like the top 5 to me.   Wouldn't you say?  And Clingy won a book with picking a number so I imagine they put Foxx on the top 5 list.

Homer  12764
Tara  6033
nightperson  3307
SaintHippo  3087
ClingFree  2743
SunnyLibra  2507
foxx  2377
bubblegum  2271

Gawd.  I get into trouble when I'm half asleep.  :)) Never mind anything I say before I have my morning coffee okay?  :))

I know there are a lot of typos in peoples names. Sorry, I was more concerned with posting the results than spelling so shoot me. LOL

well since i opened my yap and asked about the special recognition thing, i had better apologize to the winners and members of the forum.

i never meant any harm by asking. i was just curious what the criteria was in the event there would be future badge album contests, so i might put myself in consideration for them.

after it was explained to me, i realized that i would never be able to do that. and i joked about it.

pogocheats is a fun place to learn new information, share thoughts, jokes, and recipes. my asking was not mean-spirited. just curious. the last thing i wanted to do was make anyone feel bad for winning.

i think it is nice that you all joke and laugh and share. on occasion, i have put in my two cents worth. i just came here to participate. not to make anyone feel bad. when i first came here, all i wanted to do was contribute and share like so many others i had seen. that has not gone away. i am just sad that i offended anyone.

with that said, i am going back to the corner.  :)

There will be no more special recognition prizes.

The only reason I am explaining this is out of respect for the 5 winners.

I decided to make it easy on myself by choosing the top 5 posters. If someone in the top 5 had won in the contest I chose the next person on the list. Some people already had the badge book and donated it to other members.

We have given away hundreds of prizes at PC. We've given away countless autos, badge books and even iPods.
