Live In or Near the London Area?
Meet Thieves and Win Some Prizes!

Find the "American Rat" and Win Fabulous Prizes!

I will be on holiday in and around the London area from this coming Saturday, March 7th through the following Saturday, March 14th.

sunday's event will take place at 1pm

During my stay I am holding two "meet an American rat" events where the first 5 registered forum members during each event that introduce themselves will automatically win a nice little prize as well as an entry to win a brand new, Nintendo DS Lite bundle.

Up for grabs are following:
- Nintendo DS Lite bundle no. 1 (Limited Edition Black Pokemon Diamond/Pearl system w/ carrying case) and some random [new and sealed] DS game (from my collection)
- Nintendo DS Lite bundle no. 2 (Limited Edition Red system with a white Mario "M" logo and a copy of New Super Mario Bros.)
- Roughly 20 or so videogame related tchotchkes

(Note: All items are brand new and still sealed!)

Rules: Twice during the week, the 8th (Sunday) and 14th (the following Saturday) of March to be specific, I will post a thread indicating where I will be in or near the London area, and all you have to do is locate me and introduce yourself. The first 5 people will receive a tchotchke. Those 5 (from GBAtemp.net) and all other registered members of the forum that I meet within the next hour are then eligible for the DS Lite bundle for that day by means of a random drawing after the hour expires.

The odds of winning one of the two nintendo DS Lite bundles will depend on the number of people making contact for that given day. the winner of the day one event will be ineligible from winning a DS Lite bundle on day two.
A minimum of 10 people must show up for the DS Lite bundle to be offered as a prize. If the minimum number of 10 is not met at the first event, those people's raffle ticket will be pooled in with those from the second event so that at least one DS Lite bundle will be offered up regardless of the total number of people showing up to both events.

    That's a relief to hear. Do you know what happened?
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @BakerMan, Any idea what happened? I hope that your brother's doing good.
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    Well, from what I've heard from my parents, he had a seizure last night, perhaps an epileptic episode, fucking died, had a near death experience, my dad called the paramedics, they showed up, took him to the hospital, and he woke up covered in tubes, and started complaining.
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    He couldn't eat until after his MRI, when he had a bomb pop.
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    What matters now is that he's doing alright.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    But you still don't know what it was?
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Has he had seizures before?
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
