I think you're looking at the whole situation through the wrong lens.
There's nothing stopping someone from having better reflexes, better latency, etc... it's a total and complete crap shoot...that's what makes it fun. What's not fun is entering 12 times and losing 12 times. I get it. It took me 16 tries and that was all done yesterday. Today? All I did was try and help other people that I interact with on here regularly.
I'd rather see people who are here and regularly contribute to topics, win, rather than some guy who has an account here for the sole purpose of entering giveaways a few days a year and then back to being an inactive account, wouldn't you agree? Wouldn't you also agree that if someone was to win something on your behalf, you'd have no objections to receiving the prize, right?
Instead of going about it the way you're going - have some fun with it. Nobody here asked anyone (except a person or two) to help them win anything, it was all organic. So if everything is on the up and up and within the rules set forth, I just really struggle to see it from your perspective outside of just being upset that you haven't won yet. I say yet because there's 5+ days left in the competition and you haven't said anything that would piss someone off enough to not try and help you win - so maybe keep that in mind when your participating and maybe you'll be surprised at what happens.

So close!
Got lucky AGAIN! Woo Hoo. I think it's much easier when the crowd is thin. Interest is definitely dropping off so I think people should definitely try persistently now - there's a very strong chance that they'll snag a slot.
So looking through, @default seems to have already won for @MannDude - so my post doesn't qualify and @jaden you're the lucky one!
I kept watching this thread despite I won on day 1, and I'm disappointed to see people failed to admit that having someone help another one is unfair, and failed to recognize that there are people inherently bad at this type of game.
If you want to compete and have fun, please go ahead WITHOUT posting someone else's code. Come on, it's a great giveaway. Everyone wants it. Give people at least a fair chance, otherwise it'd be really frustrating.
Sweet!
I hear you and I think @Petey_Long clarified things (quite nicely IMHO) in his comment:
https://lowendtalk.com/discussion/comment/4097150/#Comment_4097150
I'll obviously defer to the mods ( @FAT32 and/or @angstrom both of whom were/are active in this thread) in case this is perceived as being unfair or not acceptable.
I'm doing this just to help out in my own little way towards people that I think are very useful/regular contributors to the community here (with no expectations whatsoever and as a thank you to those folks who make this place a little nicer for the rest of us).
