So, I apparently entered the GTAIV contest that microsoft had, and won 12 months of live.
Buuut, I had already planned on buying the camera bundle, and none of my friends need the subscription.
So, lovely Destructoid, I propose the contest that my boyfriend came up with:
1. Add me on live (gt: kaciesaurus)
2. Get geometry wars 2 (released next wednesday, july 30)
3. Get every achievement
4. Send me a message as soon as you do it
5. Tell me how much you love me (I know it's a lot.)
The first person to get all 200 points and send me a message saying they did it gets the subscription.
I figured this is a game a lot of you would be getting anyway, and I want to give this thing away before I even forget that I have it, so I picked geometry wars 2-- sorry if you don't like it :(
I really hope the achievements aren't insane, I want this to be a semi-easy challenge.
Edit***
The message needs to be sent on xbox live (I just want to be sure everyone understands that)
The game isn't out yet, the last thing I read said it comes out on the 30th. This way everyone has the exact same amount of time to do this.

if this ends up being too tough, I might change it. It's up to the community, I guess.
Also, I was thinking of a contest, but this blows my contest idea away.. I'll try my contest next weekend maybe.
@rifter
It comes out next week. I'm pretty sure. I just wanted to make sure everyone had the same amount of time.
I bet the achievements are going to be really tough.

As you place higher, the prizes get shitter. That's retarded.
Why would they do it like that?
I'm sure a ton of people will get it though.
I think you should just give me the free Xbox LIVE since I will not pay for it..those other guys will.
Plus my love is overflowing for you.
