Thanks everyone for the votes, couldn't have done it without you :)

Also, the gift card e-mail looks cool too :eek:

Yeah, pretty neat they let me upload my own image to the cards. Figured it'd not hurt to brand it, haha!

Plus email delivered cards can be delivered fast. No need for a contest winner to wait weeks for their prize when I knew the day the contest was going to end. Already ready to be sent out to the winners.

Congratulations to all!

These three (among others) have really raised the bar for new content and how proper guides & howtos are supposed to be like.

WTF, you actually gave away prizes?

I thought you had contests and either 1. Gave the prizes to your friends or 2. Never issued them due to external folks being ahh, not up speed/interested...

Ba-dum! another LET joke.

Congrats to everyone who participated and to the winners.  Was an impressive flurry of activity.

I think Mann has more of these contests forthcoming, right?

 I do believe it was mentioned somewhere, yes. Though future contests will more than likely differ than the ones before it. Gotta mix things up a bit and do some things that others can participate in too.

you're not allowed to request sexual favours in return for vote rigging.

I did NOT request sexual favors from any of the contest participants in return for my vote.  I merely offered to vote for them if they mailed $50 in cash in an unmarked envelope to my post office box.

Congratulations to all of the winners!

@peterw is a stand up fella. When PMed and asked how I should deliver his prize, he mentions:

Great community with all the votes for my tutorial! I want to sponsor this to wlanboy and his arduino tutorials. To give him a big thanks for his work and that he can buy the costly bluetooth chips and all the other things he needs for his tutorials

When asked, once again if he was sure:

I am sure. I asked him for a bluetooth solution and I don't want that he spend his money. It can be made public because I don't hide things. And I want to support his hardware tutorials.

So, how about that? That's very admirable and kind. @wlanboy hasn't been around yet to claim his prize, but I guess he'll be taking a little more than originally planned!

Once again, thanks to everyone who participated.
