1942: Joint Strike, 11 Code Giveaway
DeaconBlade \| 8:33 AM on 08.01.2008	24 comments

What's up all my freaks at Dtoid. It's been a while for me but I haven't forgotten about ya.

I have some more goodies to giveaway so I thought I'd share with ya. Just ignore if you're not interested.

I present the Magnificent Eleven, Eleventh Hour Giveaway.

Each time the clock strikes 11:00AM & 11:00PM CST, someone will win. I'll pick two names when the clock strikes these exact times. I'll post the names so keep the F5 handy. The trick is to be at those times because if you're not, then the names get withdrawn and I'll move on to the next 11th hour. You have to be there to claim the code and you'll have 1942 seconds (a little over a 1/2 hour) to claim it. We'll keep going at these two times each day until the codes are gone.

Two names from where? I'd like to win but I don't understand (plus this is from another site).

This sounds like some morning talk radio promotional giveaway.

"Heyyyyy, everybody. We're giving away two tickets to NICKLEBACK this Friday at the Shit Factory!! When you hear the sound of me sucking my own cock, you just have to be the 47th caller with the PHRASE THAT PAYS (insert random sound clips)"

Meh, I hear the game sucks anyway.

That is a bit unclear how the names are picked. Then again, nobody ever stands a chance of winning the lottery regardless if they understand it or not...

Also, I want some bacon. Gimmah bacon.

That was more directed at morning talk radio than you. Sorry, I just re-read my comment and realized that I come across as an enormous dickhead.

Do we post a comment here, or at the link you gave us?

Also, I want to win!

How are the names picked for this?

DeaconBlade says:
(# 6) on 08/01/2008 09:40

i just go pick the names..no real science in picking lol.

and you guys can post here that's fine. you don't HAVE to post there at all just so we don't have any assholes thinking it's some promotional stunt (as they always seem to be a few) it would make it easier, but for the sake of complaining, i'll check here as well.

i'm just trying to spread the free swag love like i always do with as many people as i can.

there have been quite a few from Destructoid who have won in the giveaways i've done.

:)

I'm down to to win something free, been checking out your website just now. Interesting, I didn't even know there was such a thing as an xbox Mvp.

DeaconBlade says:

1942 looked awesome. Give it to me for free please.

Also if anyone could hook me up with the XBLA Castlvania Syphomy of the Night. That'd be just dandy.

Really, any xbla games you don't like anymore, Bullseye isn't too proud to take off your digital hands.

Pick me! Pick me!

1942 is definitely one of my all-time favorites for the NES. I remember as a child after having rented it, I sent my parents on the craziest hunt of all time to find that game. It was VERY hard to find back in the day. Great giveaway man, keep up the good work. I love swag.

about me
I'm Deacon. I'm no one really. I'm just a guy from Dallas who has a show and website on the Xbox 360 community. It's called Unscripted 360. I do a normal recorded show there and a live show. You can call in live and all that stuff. It's pretty wicked. I'm currently an Xbox MVP and founder of the 360 Laws. Read up on the 360 Laws Picture Packs etc right here. I'm pimpin' one of the pics from the Picture Pack right now on my profile. They're on the Marketplace for download. After hanging out with the Destructoid crew at an EA event, I realized they're just about as crazy as I am so I had to have a D-Blog. Note to everyone about Destructoid hazing...it's REAL. They make you jump in pools with your clothes on and swim in weird places. It's true. I hope you guys enjoy whatever bit of blogging I do here. Drop me a line sometime or not. See ya on the blahg. Look for Unscripted 360 content on Xbox Live Marketplace! http://www.unscripted360.com/2008/02/01/360-laws-picture-pack-2/
