I opened a Google Hangout to test it out for the contest. I added everyone from my Halforums circles. Turns out that may not have been a good idea. It was funny, but I got to see a lot of people I haven't seen for a while!
 
Not that I'm playing any sympathy card out there, but... I only have on gaming console. My Nintendo Wii, which I bought way way back when it was the hot console to have.

And... I'm really ashamed to mention this... I never really owned a gaming console in the "modern" era of video games.

Seriously. All the games and such that I've ever played were on the Mac or PC, or way back on my old Intellivision with Breakout! or my Atari 400 computer.

Part of me thinks I'd be absolutely lost with an Xbox or a PS4, but then again my Wii is slowly becoming a paperweight since they took most of the channels off that I used on a regular basis (news, weather).

I've never owned a single game console. I own a DSiXL, and have...Three games on it? Myeah :p

Fourth place prize just added: A copy of Divinity: Original Sin.

Right now the game is in beta, but this is an early access pass. The beta comes with 20 hours of play and will automatically be upgraded to the full game when it's released.[DOUBLEPOST=1396723442,1396723274][/DOUBLEPOST]I was getting it and I thought, why not just pay the extra $20, get a second copy (buying in bulk is cheaper anyway), and make it a fourth place prize?

I've got my fingers crossed. I'm a huge fan of the Playstation line (and yes, I have a sweet-ass PC gaming rig, and I still prefer the ps3), but there's no PS4 in the budget. Then again I'd donate it back to site maintenance if that helps.

Alright, I'm in. If I do happen to win anything, I'd rather have the cash equivalent (since that appears to be an option?) go right to the Jimmy Fund, a cancer charity, instead of me.

If anyone wants to do something other than keep the money, we'll still give it to them to do as they will. That would mean we'd PayPal you the cash and you could donate it from there.

My girlfriend jokes that she's going to set up an account without me knowing and start posting. I'm not sure how I'd feel about it. :confused:
