Hey! Don’t Be A:
Common Sense Rule #1: HAVE A VALID E-MAIL ADDRESS! I contact code and other contest winners via the info WordPress gives me (as in your email address and other IP contact info), so if I send you a reply and get back a response like THIS:
Delivery to the following recipient failed permanently:
(insert invalid email here!)
Technical details of permanent failure:
Google tried to deliver your message, but it was rejected by the server for the recipient domain (insert ISP here!).com by (insert more IP info here!).
The error that the other server returned was:
554 delivery error: dd This user doesn’t have a (insert .com account here!) (insert non-account email here!) [0] – (insert more IP info.com here!)
Um… I can’t do anything but pass your code onto someone else. Now, tonight’s giveaway ran FINE, except I posted the wrong response to the wrong person who was the third response to the post. Oops. Anyway, I sent out an email offering up another game of three from the long list of codes I have, but you see what I got in return. Hey, kids – If you want a prize, I need to know where it goes and NO ONE else needs to know your email address. Get it? Got it? GOOD. Now, go fix that stuff and I’ll see you folks tomorrow for another giveaway. I still have no clue, but I think it’ll be a simulation game of some sort (city or military), as I have a bunch of those codes here and haven’t had time to get back into the genre at all…
