Seems like we never hear back from people who chose the gift certificates as their poll prizes. So, how did you spend it? What did you get? |
richarDISNEY | 16 Sep 2011 9:45 p.m. PST |
I'd tell you if I EVER WON ANY!

I picked up some western buildings from Total System Scenic. |
Andrew May1 | 16 Sep 2011 11:23 p.m. PST |
I haven't won one yet Bill (hint hint). I 'spose I would if I actually did the polls

Well, to be honest, I never did, as I didn't get the certificate. I think TMP had some sort of collapse just when you were supposed to send out the code, and then I didn't pick it up. |
Space Monkey | 17 Sep 2011 2:37 a.m. PST |
When I won I just ignored it. |

give me one and I'll tell you, sort of a market research approach perhaps

Sorry, Henrix

Since IIRC you have to submit poll ideas, I haven't and won't be winning any. However, if I did, I'd choose the free membership and ask that it be given to some deserving person

<<Since IIRC you have to submit poll ideas, I haven't and won't be winning any.>> Wow, I thought you just had to take part in the polls, not submit. That explains some of the real lame polls and some appearing to win twice. |

I've never actually received mine either. However, since I asked for a QRF certificate and they seemed to stop endorsing the polls right after I won thought there might be some sort of link there
|
GeoffQRF | 17 Sep 2011 6:18 a.m. PST |
Baddaski, drop me an email and I will look into that. We stopped doing them only because we got through our initial allocation rather quickly (seems they were popular), although we may do another batch shortly. |

It's ok, Bill, no big deal. ;-) It's more important that the site is up and running. I'll win another soon anyway. The only question is whether it'll be before I win all those millions on lotto. |
Buzzkill | 17 Sep 2011 6:47 a.m. PST |
I thought you just had to vote in the polls, not suggest a poll! No wonder I haven't won anything! |
jdpintex | 17 Sep 2011 7:23 a.m. PST |
Put me in the same group as Henrix and Baddaski. No big deal as I participate in the polls regardless of prizes. |

I added to the certificate and picked up some nice limber animals from Cavalcade. I think they are water buffaloes, but look the part for my armies in India 1840's. Really nicely done miniatures and the price and service were right. Thanks again Bill ![thumbs up thumbs up](boards/icons/thumbs_up.gif) |

A variety of 14th century troops. Scots from QRF Assorted Minifig knights and whatnot from Caliver The prizes definitely spurred purchases I wouldn't have otherwise made, so they are indeed good for business! |
COL Scott0again | 17 Sep 2011 11:03 a.m. PST |
sniff sniff I missed my chance during a trip with the Army, came back just in time to see that I had missed the deadline. Harumpf I would likely have taken a membership. Just to see what it is like in Camelot ;) |
Henrix | 17 Sep 2011 11:59 a.m. PST |
Oh, it's much the same here in Camelot – better food, fewer peasants, much singing and dancing. It is a silly place. |
The Tin Dictator | 17 Sep 2011 1:42 p.m. PST |
Mine was great! I took an all-expense-paid trip to the Bahamas and was able to attend the next "Playboy goes to the beach" photo shoot.
. no wait!?
.. that wasn't me. I never won. DARN !! |
Jamesonsafari | 17 Sep 2011 3:35 p.m. PST |
Got some spiffaroo gabioned earthworks from Black Cat for my 15mm SYW armies to hide behind. |
Ron W DuBray | 17 Sep 2011 4:30 p.m. PST |
had bill give it to a random person whos membership was running out. |
Ironwolf | 17 Sep 2011 8:32 p.m. PST |
How many have won a poll more than once?? |
thatotherguy | 17 Sep 2011 8:46 p.m. PST |
Participated for several months, saw several multi-poll winners. Haven't won myself. Still answer polls when they pertain to me. |

Since IIRC you have to submit poll ideas, I haven't and won't be winning any. CorrectionAll you have to do to qualify for a poll prize is participate in the polls. It has nothing to do with submitting a poll suggestion. |
Mainly28s | 19 Sep 2011 12:10 p.m. PST |
Participated in every poll except for a 10-day period in which I had no internet access for most of my time here. Never won anything here yet, so I can't say
|
PygmaelionAgain | 20 Sep 2011 6:31 a.m. PST |
All I ever won was a tongue lashing from anti-poll curmudgeons. I haven't found anyone who accepts it as currency. |
Poi000 | 25 Oct 2011 2:54 a.m. PST |
Has the poll prixze thing stopped? Not mentioned in a few days, and no open polls, not neccessarily a bad thing :) |
