Didn't You Hear...: …It’s TGI Friday: The Swag Bag?

  • stephen · 2 years ago
    Hmmm, let's see...I like how the titles are all questions. As in "Didn't You Hear...stephen comments regularly and is a whore for free stuff so he should get the prize?"

    Oh, and the content is pretty good, too.

    I would have to say the best thing about this site is the content. It doesn't sit on certain specific topics (gadgets, pictures, news) and it doesn't try to force anything down my throat. Some sites try to get you involved in what they are doing and that is all fine and well, but if I just want to check out some things without being pressured about anything I come here.

    And that is a daily occurrence and is the reason why I visit this site everyday.

    Two things I like about this blog: 1. Content - Mostly stuff I hadn't heard before and edgy enough that I can (occasionally) use some of the things in my high school classes to interest the students; 2. Engaged Author - Cory is constantly trying to connect with his readership and improve the site. Kudos for a job well done!

    What I like about DYH is that there is something new everyday! No just something but a different subject whether its movies, books, government, internet, games, perfect breasts.lol and I always visit the site just to find something new.

    Great Job on DYH!!! keep it up!

    I like that you rarely tell me more than I want to know. Usually less, and I end up having a bunch of linked websites to look through before I leave the computer, which isn't really a bad thing. I like that the information is easy to digest. Also I find myself unnaturally trying to insert "Didn't you hear...?" into sentences, which is funny.

    hey i have one question though. I hope this dosnt make me not eligible for the prize but
    how will we know who wins? will you post it on the main page or here as a comment? just asking.
  • CoryOBrien · 2 years ago
    polishdude20: Don't worry, you're still eligible. :)

    To answer your question: I will announce the winner in a separate post on Sunday, and I will also announce the winner in a comment on this post, so either way, you'll know.

    Thanks for asking, as I guess I should have clarified.
  • polishdude20 · 2 years ago
    ok thanks and good luck to everyone!
  • polishdude20 · 2 years ago
    it's sunday and you still didnt announce the winner just to tell you. hope you havent forgotten.
  • polishdude20 · 2 years ago
    oh and the thing i dont like about DYH is that it's not always updated that much regularly i guess. i figured that saying something that i dont like would help you make the site better so i had to say this.
  • CoryOBrien · 2 years ago
    And the winner is...

    wendy_q420

    Just to clarify my methods, I put each name that entered the contest into an Excel spreadsheet (there were 6 names) in the order that they commented. (stephen first, superdude4agze second, etc.)

    Then, I created a formula to randomly pick a number between 1 and 7 (1.00->6.99). The formula was RAND()*(7-1) 1. The number that it came up with was 4.1001456. Thus, since the whole digit was 4, wendy_q420 was the winner, as she was the fourth person to comment.

    If anyone sees any fault with the above logic, please let me know, and I'll draw again. Otherwise, keep an eye out for the next Swag Bag giveaway.

    whens the next one gonna be?
  • CoryOBrien · 2 years ago
    The next Swag Bag is going to depend on when I can get together enough swag to give away, but I'm also doing other giveaways, and I usually hold contests on Fridays, so be sure to check out all of the TGI Friday posts.
