I think you did have a legitimate chance, you were just a few hours behind honestly. You were right on the border to being able to win something. Hard work did help a lot in this auction, but only if you knew you could solicit 500 points from clicks every day :/ I didn't figure that out until late tuesday, by then I was way behind. But I toughed it out, and got lucky with Twitter.

The auction thread was closed?

I guess it's all for the better that our hangout is no longer associated with the Bazaar. I don't want to get infected with fail.


It got closed due to a troll infection, although I agree with you it realy had nothing to do with the auction anymore. I just don't have anywhere else to go tonight :(

Troll infection, huh? That sucks.

I'm considering treating myself an N7 hoody after this whole contest, but I'm gonna give BioWare one quick chance to redeem themselves here. A slight discount is all I ask for!

And before you ask, no, I probably wouldn't hate the Bazaar so much if I'd won something.


You know, in all honesty, I don't really feel that they need to "redeem" themselves. They did their best to create a fun event, but left enough ends untied for them to be exploited. All in all, it was impossible for EVERYONE to get a prize. It all depended on your ability to collect clicks for the two weeks, and win Twitter challenges.


I'll get angry only if in another 2 months the Bazaar prizes suddenly start popping up on ebay.


Honestly, if I had won a computer, I would put it up on Ebay faster than you can say Broodmother. The specs are alright, but for the money one of those things can fetch, I could build something WAY better than it. Besides, I only really want a new CPU and a sound card.

Yeah, that seems like the smart thing. It's got great specs, but the value of the case alone is probably over 9000, so you could build an uber computer if you sold it. If I had won it I would have sold it too, because I can't cheat on my current computer, that would be wrong :wub:

I want Gaider to take his time if he hasn't signed any of the copies they auctioned yet.


indeed very interested a good read and signed

In other news I finally beat Awakening the second time and must say the final boss is much easier than the Archdemon all you need is 1 alive ranged fighter :pinched:


I found the Archdemon easier. 


I didn't use the ballistas, but my warrior did more than they did anyway :o


Really?  You have to time it right.  You can get 100+ damage using the ballistas. 


I found Buffs+Blood Powers+Dwarfs = destruction

Comparitively for Awakening Valenna+Stuff+Vulnerability Hex = Dead Boss
well that was after I killed the hirdes of darkspawn :whistle:

I think it will help when all of the auction thread crashers wake up tomorrow, although it might need a bump.

If we keep quoting each other. It shouldn't take too long.

Any time you want advice, just let me know. I'm well versed in what the best bang for the buck at the moment is. I'm a hardcore Guru3D member and avid computer builder  :wizard:


well i know im going AMD quad core one of the black edidtions preferably....  and using a 5770 not sure on which brand yet...  ive read good things about XFX and MSi's im gonna go with a single vid card so im not even going to worry about a mobo with multiple PCIe slots. 
gonna go with 4 gigs ram... maybe 8 if i can afford it...

def goin with a SSD for boot.. a 30 gig should do.  and then a drive for data..

gonan use a V8 cooler
and the thermaltake v3 case has been winking at me

key is im trying to make it as cost effective as possible.. under a grand or cheaper if possible...

It should definitely be possible, as I said I was able to keep mine ~1000 with a new monitor included.

How exactly do you cheat a boss fight? :o

I just did my Vigil's Keep and killed playthrough (to avoid spoilers). I enjoyed my ending interesting what happened to Natheniel

Haha, yeah that honestly was the hard part about the decision... I really love Dragon Age, and I would have to really consider selling that one. But the ME2 case, I think I could have departed with a bit easier...

Nice, in that case you should be golden.
