Commiserating with Ripple

[thehangdude]

The luckiest S.O.B. on ecf just won another one.




Edit: OOoooo... but it's been snatched back by Badkolo for winning too much. Film at 11.

Now please don't take this wrong. I am the luckiest SOB I know, but that was a bit raw. Bad said I was able to play that round. I invested time into the contest, because I wanted the prize. If he didn't want me to win, He shouldn't have said...

adrena he was barred form the last game becuase he already won a gripper and his was shippped.

but he is allowed to play for this one

I know I will get no sympathy here, but I felt like commiserating. I will play for the VV mod, and those who follow this thread know what happens when I win it!

Welll if you do see the post that he said that....why not bring it up in topic? you did technically win fair and square

I was at the store. I didn't return and learn my fate until after the next game had started. I might PM badkolo and let him know how I feel. But all things considered, I doubt that will help my case any. GotVapes has been very generous, and I hate to be a thorn.

As I said, I am a lucky SOB. I shall return, stronger, faster, better than before.

I think you were ripped off!

 

[Krispers]

See im the one that would reply to it in forum so everyone knows he went back on his word

 

[ISBN]

I only agree with everyone here because my number wasn't the second pick!!!




sorry dude...

This is another reason I've given up on his contests. I know a lot of people help him out and I know they do so sincerely and in good faith--but his actions have always seemed to smack a bit of the arbitrary. To me, this is exactly the same thing as if he'd said "I know person A won, but I'd rather give it to person B so I'm changing the results." In fact, that is exactly what he did.

I am no trying to denigrate his generosity, but why bother pretending to have a contest if you're going to ignore your own rules and give the prize to whomever you want, or not give it to someone you specifically said was eligible?

Dude, if I may call you that (), you wouldn't get any sympathy here if you came in complaining about "never winning anything," or complaining that one of your prizes wasn't as good as you expected, or basically just gripe without a legitimate gripe. But I don't think anyone here would think a complaint about being told specifically that you could enter a contest only to be told after it was over "but you're not allowed to win" is not a legitimate gripe.

I, for one, am capable of both being jealous of your luck and commiserating with the unfairness of your treatment...

Thank you for that. I think it is all better as Starlight (the one who won) offered to share the flavors 50/50. Of course I had to turn her/him down, but it restored my faith.

Also a big thank you to those in this thread. Y'all really know how to make a guy feel good! So thank you!

Wow, can you imagine how much I'd whine if that had happened to me?!?!?!? 8-o8-o8-o OK, now I actually feel sorry for ya', hangdude, what's the world coming to?!?!?!?

I still play the games there occasionally although the company does seem to pop up in negative reviews and such.......

 

[Krispers]

Ahem......grrrrrrrrr is all I can says

 

[VapingTurtle]

FWIW, Badkolo has told me he'll make it right for TheDude.


Just sayin', not defending. But I think all chill and let it play out may be best. Just my op.

 

[Krispers]
