done and done. With all this good karma from upvoting for everyone who makes a thread like this, I better win if I ever enter a contest.

Malenko - You can send me a private message requesting an upvote anytime. You know I've got your back.

Upvoted. I love the Santa Monica Pier.

Here are the others I entered, but there's no need to upvote them.

The winner will receive a limited edition Grand Theft Auto V strategy guide, as well as a spin on the Wheel of Games!

Three cheers for low expectations.

The "spin on the Wheel of Games" is the only reason I bothered. I'm intrigued.

I'm just teasing you, man. I gave you an upvote and I'll ding it from a couple of other IPs for you, too.

yotsuya · « **Reply #9 on:** December 11, 2014, 11:05:43 am »

Too bad this is currently in first place...

Ginsu Victim · « **Reply #10 on:** December 11, 2014, 11:09:50 am »

I have a feeling that one could somehow not qualify. Not sure why....

Also, what's with people upvoting their own pics? It shows who votes.

I appreciate it, but you don't have to do multiple votes. One per person will do.

Ginsu Victim · « **Reply #12 on:** December 11, 2014, 01:25:23 pm »

Thanks for all the votes so far! You guys rock!

Voted this AM.

We can do better than 8 guest votes people! It takes 20 seconds to help GV out.

He's up to 15 votes (if guest votes count) but we can still do better !! -- Only question is do the "guest votes count in the standings (the rules say "The community will upvote and downvote the photos, and the winner will be the picture with the most upvotes! - so is "community" including guests or just community members) or only the named member posts (ie. do we need to register for the vote to count toward the contest or is just voting as a guest helpful ?)

Ginsu Victim · « **Reply #15 on:** December 12, 2014, 09:08:31 am »

Not clear on that myself. You just have to be logged into Disqus, which is used everywhere, so I was kinda surprised so many of the votes showed up as guests in the first place. We're an opinionated lot here.

Malenko · « **Reply #16 on:** December 12, 2014, 09:12:49 am »

I think guest votes count, because you can only downvote if logged in.

Ginsu Victim · « **Reply #17 on:** December 12, 2014, 09:28:48 am »

You can't actually downvote on Disqus. It shows you a red arrow, but doesn't affect the number in any way. Everyone everywhere is taking our negativity away! We aren't allowed to dislike anything!

yotsuya · « **Reply #18 on:** December 12, 2014, 04:26:00 pm »

I assume you won. It's past the deadline, and you have the most votes (you beat the MS Paint graphic by 2).

Yeah, he won't stop streaming on his Twitch account and end the contest.

Ginsu Victim · « **Reply #20 on:** December 12, 2014, 05:04:15 pm »

I WON! Thanks for all the help, you guys are awesome!

Send me a PM if you need a an upvote or help in the future.

I remember when the Santa Monica Pier was longer.....

Ginsu Victim · « **Reply #30 on:** January 09, 2015, 01:01:53 pm »

Well, the "Wheel of Games" wound up just being a bunch of indie games on Steam. I had to go to his Twitch stream to spin the wheel. I couldn't even tell you which game I won. Still waiting for the GTA V guide to get here.

Malenko · « **Reply #31 on:** January 09, 2015, 01:26:09 pm »

better than a sharp stick in the eye.

Or a slap on the belly with a wet trout
