Update! I'm happy I have something productive to do while meandering on the interturbes at 2am for once.  Congratulations to the following three Dtoiders -- I've got one of these blue boxes with your name on it!  You'll get an email from me shortly.  If you don't, check your spam folders.  Don't make me hunt you down.

Didn't win it?  Don't worry -- there will be three more winners for $500 cash prizes to be announced at midnight November 28.  To qualify just play the game. Playing also gives you a chance to win some fast gaming systems from Cyberpower, so get on that. Best of luck!

On an unrelated note, we're also giving away a $3,000 guitar.  You may want to read this.

Original post, 11/20:

See these beautiful shiny blue boxes with an Intel Core 2 Quad Processor (Q9400) inside? We just shipped out a ton of them to lucky Dtoiders and we're giving away more tonight.  Everyone is eligible to enter -- just play by midnight (12PM EST) for a chance to win one by random drawing. Refresh this post tonight to discover if you've won or if some guy in British Columbia stole it from you. (Congrats, Atlas!)

I sure hope that the experiences I faced with the horrid controls of these games are worth any prize up for grabs.

Professional-Grade Tip: Using a trackpad in lieu of a mouse is probably not the best idea here.
- Try combining the WITHERED HUSK with the ESSENCE OF LIFE'S OIL to create a convincing disguise that will allow you to slip past the guards.

4.8 thumbs up.

As a frequent user of Jergen's hand lotion, I probably have a lot of clout in the industry.

BTW I am talking about the last contest for these. People just checking out this article which is now updated with the winners might think I am crazy.

Excuse me, I can't seem to play this game. My inkies seem to all be mastacists and otherwise suicidal.
