Entertaining and frustrating as always. Every year I'm amazed by the obscure stuff you dig up. Thanks for your time and generosity!

I haven't figured out how David and Bri can be on top of this forum like they are and still have any sort of life ... (perhaps that's a clue :lol: ) - but I think I'm going to have to start now to improve my system. Email alerts clearly don't cut it. There has to be a better way. I'll be ready next year!! :twisted:

GREAT JOB GUYS!!!

Thanks goes out to the "Reload Every" add-on for Firefox, without which I would never had been able to compete. Also big thanks goes out to the makers of VNC who allowed me to connect to a different machine where I had Firefox reloading every 10 seconds...allowing me to participate and keep it on the down low here at work.

Most of all, Thank You Seb. Great contest.

Hey guys!

Just wanted to say Congratulations to everyone, and that it's always great having you all here for the contest. It's our annual get-together. Good to see new the faces around this year as well.

Thanks Zemlin, mhughes, groff and freaky for your congrats and compliments throughout.

Zemlin, you forgot to add "very stressful" to your list.

Hey progr4m, the same thing happens to me as you remarked about right before/"after" Sebatron posted sneaky question 12,13,14.

This year's award for creativity and good humor goes to pmolsonmus and freaky. I'll send you your prizes.

Dave had a great lead there, but I constantly felt like I was being chased down by a hungry pack of wolves. Next contest will prove to be very competitive and entertaining...I'll be watching you all from the sidelines...unless you want me in so you can kick my arse. I'd say kick Dave's arse, but I'm not so sure he's a real person. There is evidence that suggests he actually may just be a rogue, artificial intelligence program.

And of course a very special thanks to the very generous Sebatron himself. Not many people in this world can and do offer such a great opportunity....year after year.

A big cheers to everyone...drinks are on the house!

Brian

It's been a lot of fun again this year!!! Way to go, David, Bri and everyone, you can now resume your normal lives! (Although you may feel a bit of emptiness as you race to your computer first thing and realize that you don't have to spend theday camping in front of it... :-? ) Once again, a big thanks to ~Sebatron~ 8-) ! Your generosity is staggering and, as usual, I've learned a lot. Sometimes it seems that this contest is the best opportunity all year for me to stretch my brain... Thanks!
