RE: Now the contest is over

I only put it as the sig on a few forums and on my msn display name.....

But didnt each time it was clicked only give you another CHANCE in the draw?


but yeah would be nice to see how many the winners got at least.....(at list of all 110000 people would be a bit over the top :P)

yes, you got another chance (when they downloaded messenger plus!, not just by clicking).

But if a random number is picked from a list which contains 1000 entries from 1 person and 5 entries from another person, the chance that the person with 1000 entries wins is very huge (there is always an extremely small chance that the person with 1 entry wins of course).

(btw: I'm not complaining though. Just stating that it is very obvious that those with huge visited sites, had a very big chance in winning ;))

I dont think that info should be made available to the general public... is like if the lottery published the list of of who bought tickets...

the fact is that you guys didnt won (except rafy)

so accept it and move on...

If they decide its not the business of the general public then fine, but let them decide and say it. 

We OBVIOUSLY know we didn't win (except rafy),  I dont think any of us need to "accept it and move on", considering it really wasn't that big of a deal.  You talk like it was a HUGE divorce or something that we need to "accept and get over". 

I just wanted to know how many people I gave the link to actually downloaded it, and how many hits I got.

Hey everyone. Sorry for not replying before.

As stated in the rules of the contest, the database was purged soon after the last winner was selected. That way, the db will enver be hacked and your emails will never go on another spam distribution list. Sorry about the stats but there's no way to retrieve them now :).
