I already have Fruit Ninja & the Halo packs. The best prize of all was playing with you guys... (sarcasm or ass-kissing?)

I literally have a bowl on my desk with everyone's entries in it that I'll just randomly choose a name from throughout the day. I was testing whether using a computer program or drawing the names manually would be more random, and I'm addicted now. Hahaha, I'll just be sitting there and I'll say "ok, for the Xbox!" and grab a name. I may be the most easily amused person of all time.

Please don't put me down for the following, I already have them.
arcade game Texas Hold 'Em, Worms, or Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3
Fruit Ninja Kinect codes
Halo Reach map pack
Kinect Sports avatar pack (football uniform codes for male and female avatars, plus foam finger prop code)
Master Chief avatar pack (armor codes for male and female avatars)
On a side note, thanks again Kat for hosting these events and taking the time out of your busy life to do this. I had an amazing time playing with everyone. It's a damn shame that my guitar was unable to hold up to the abuse it was given. I think I would have been able to give BHole a run for his money. I got my new one yesterday (thanks Amazon for the huge delay). Now I have to pick up a copy of RB3, get some practice in, challenge Blackhole, and beat him in a dual.
Thanks to those who have donated!
Evol, thanks for the hardwork you are putting into my new Xbox. I created a fantastic spot for it on my entertainment center that will show off its incredible art work and do it justice.

Just a quick bump to remind people that if they haven't specified the prizes they don't want to be entered in by tomorrow around 4 pm eastern (I won't be home before then), they'll be entered for everything.
Not that that's a bad thing- the biggest things go first anyway, and you can always trade a code you don't need in the code trading thread, but just a heads up.

OK, after going through the results, here are the average scores for everyone who submitted scores.
Meta, Minioger, Repoman 360, FuzzyRoxas- 817,785
Junior, Blackhole, Daniel, Beauty Justified- 762,080
Shadowmachine- 68,074
Irish OH- 75,653
Sorry, Evol- breaking your shit doesn't score points in this tourney...
First place gets 4 points each, second gets 3 each, and both Shadow and Irish are awarded 3rd place points... basically for showing up, even without a band. I know finding people turned out to be tougher than it looked like it would be.
I'm disappointed by the turnout for this, for sure- I mean... free points, guys! Everyone who entered got at least ONE entry into a drawing for an xbox (and other stuff)!!! 15 minutes to get the songs done and pics uploaded... Oh well. So DEFINITELY this will be a learning experience. Music games- not so much in the future. Not for tourneys, anyway. :/
OK, I need to firm up a couple of the prizes for the drawing to make sure the donators are still going to donate them before I throw out the list of prizes. I was thinking to limit one prize per person- of course we'll draw from highest value down... that stops one person from winning everything, though. I'll put up the list and you guys will have a week to let me know if there are any prizes you DON'T want to be entered in (for instance, my LIVE is paid for years, I wouldn't want to win a year of live and then be ineligible to win anything else, if that makes sense).
Anyway, I'll explain it all as soon as I hear back from everyone.

It was in the other thread... but basically one cool guy (Roxas) and three toolbags won the RB comp...

OKAY!!
Sorry for the delay, the guy who did the drawing took a while, and now it's taking a long time to upload, because it's almost 10 minutes long...
So I'll let Evol embed the video whenever it's done and he gets a link for it... And I'll just post the list of the winners here, since most of you probably won't bother watching the video, haha.
OK!! In reverse order from how they were drawn (to get people to read them all, hehe)
Master Chief Avatar Pack- EVOL
Kinect Sports Avatar Pack- BEAVERHUNTER
Halo Reach Map Pack- MINIOGER
Fruit Ninja Kinect- DANIEL
Fruit Ninja Kinect- REPO MAN
Arcade Game Choice- Majority Ru1e
4000 Point MSP Card- BlackholeFTW
12 Month Live Subscription- Junior
Xbox America Console- Meta
Soooooooooooooooooo- if you won a prize, I'll be in touch sending you the code through a pm. The exceptions being Meta's xbox, which Evol will send as soon as he gets it finished, and the arcade game choice, which Maj will have to send his choice to PureEvil and PE will send the code (if Meta or TK or Evol can get in touch with Maj to let him know to do that, that would be great).
Thank you all for participating in the contest, this concludes the summer tournament in its entirety! Evol will be along shortly when the video is finished.

Sweet, I have more of a reason to buy a Kinect now . I wish I had joined the tournament in it's entirety. I look forward to more tournaments in the Future

The Maw
Texas Hold 'Em
Worms
Ultimate MK 3
