Dave is alive!

homelessdave · 21-11-2008, 10:21 PM

i've only come back for the competitions

sammeboy · 21-11-2008, 10:21 PM

Welcome back Dave!

Back on-topic: Even if the same person is making loads of accounts, then think about this: If they win tons of games, the address they will be sent to will all be one place. Then it will be obvious.

Like everyone else?

I shouldn't laugh at my own jokes, should I..?

homelessdave · 21-11-2008, 10:36 PM

probably not but what the hey,

anyway yes as Samme says it is only one entry per household so they will clock on as soon as someone asks for them all to be delivered to the same address...........

unless they use different addresses

Scarffo · 21-11-2008, 10:38 PM

They'll use different addresses.

For example; I'd use my parents' house, my nanna's house, my next door neighbours' house and Beth's house.

Of course, I haven't entered four times..

homelessdave · 21-11-2008, 10:40 PM

I think the mods on here are a little more intelligent,they do have ways of finding out peoples IP address ect,so one person couldn't win all the prizes.

sammeboy · 21-11-2008, 10:45 PM

Aye, that too.

I think that would be for the best.

Good luck to everyone!

Ps3 Chances:

I have a 1/38 chance of winning at the moment.
But so does everyone else.

Without people with new accounts:
I have a 1/13 chance of winning.
So 8 people won't have a game, for Ps3.

Xbox 360 Chances:
You have a 1/61 chance of winning.

Without people with new accounts:
You now have a 1/27 chance in winning.

So on both occasions the chances are doubled, almost tripled on Ps3 when people who make accounts or have less than about 20 posts don't enter.

Xbox 360 Chances:
You have a 1/55 chance of winning.

Without people with new accounts:
You now have a 1/26 chance in winning.

So on both occasions the chances are halved when people who make accounts or have less than about 20 posts don't enter.

You cant really do much we are all saying that but i guess They really dont care and more and more "Guest" are entering this comp then they leave and that is what is making this competition completely unfair
