Hey guys!

1up.com is having a contest for whoever has the crappiest gaming crib. Luckily, they chose me as the top--worst 20! Please go to this website and vote YES for me!

http://www.gamevideos.com/video/id/17790

Here is the video that I submitted to become a finalist:
GameVideos.com - KloudStrife's Dull Gaming Crib


All of my siblings and I are avid gamers that are in DESPERATE need of new consoles and a gaming crib makeover! So, PLEASE, vote for me!

In my room, we have a PS2 with an old tube TV that my dad got from Goodwill. We bought this TV for cheap because it was originally broken, so we actually had to fix it up, otherwise we wouldn't be able to afford such a TV.

We have a 5 year old computer along with the tube monitor, which can't really handle games that well. We can't even run Half-life 2 or Counterstrike-source with a decent frame rate. We can't really upgrade our computer either since the motherboard is so old, and all of the newer video cards aren’t compatible. I'd also like to mention that this computer has been freezing up and crashing lately. So, it's been showing signs that it's about to die.

I have to share both of these systems with three other siblings. Do you have any idea what it's like to share two systems with three other people in the same room every day?! Let me tell ya, it friggin' sucks! We always have to wait for our turn to play, and gaming time is usually limited to about 1 hour. Not only do we share the gaming systems in my room, but I actually have to share the room with my brother! And to top it off, I also have sleep in the same bed with him!

I'd just like to let you guys know that I'm a full-time college student right now, and I am working part time. I have a 3.76 cumulative GPA and I plan to be an accountant after graduation. So, I'd like to let you all know that I'm acutally a hard worker. My parents came from a foreign country so we can't afford much. My siblings and I grew up playing games, so I can't help but desire this grand prize as I do now. Please don't flame me and show some kindness. :(

My game crib is really dull, and this is a chance of a lifetime. So if you guys could kindly take one minute of your time to vote for me. I would be ETERNALLY GRATEFUL!

Thanks!

i really want to know how many of these people are for real.
I know exactly what you mean. Some of these people are questionable...

I believe one of the main reasons that my game crib looks better is because it is so clean. Unlike most of the finalists, I actually dusted and cleaned up the garbage in my room before submitting my entry. What I'm showing you guys is 100% legit, and I have nothing to hide.

btw, what is the prize?
My friend, when I said that this is a chance of a lifetime, I wasn't kidding.

Here are the prizes for winning the sweepstakes:

Sharp AQUOS 42" 1080p Flat-Panel LCD HDTV
Samsung 1000W 5.1-Ch. Home Theater System/Upconvert DVD/CD
Sony Playstation 3
Microsoft Xbox 360
Nintendo Wii
Devil May Cry 4 for Playstation 3
Devil May Cry 4 for Xbox 360

To have something like this--in my current state--is beyond my dreams, and I've been lucky enough to be given a chance to win it.

I truly thank everyone for their support!!

I really appreciate everyone's support!

The last day to vote is March 12, and they will be announcing the winner of this sweepstakes on the 13th. So, I'm just trying to get every last vote that I can get! :)

:eek: I also found out that re-voting is allowed! I was messing around to see how someone would get around to vote a bunch of times, and I found out that you could clear your cookies and revote... I asked the promotion coordinator about this and if it's allowed, and she said it is! I wonder how many people have been doing this...

Anyways, I'll be sure to come back and let you guys know if I win!

I lost the sweepstakes.

This guy won: 1UP Devil May Cry Game Crib Makeover Sweepstakes



EDIT:Oh my gosh! NEVERMIND!!!!
Once upon a time we had a winner....WAIT! Not so fast!

We've had such an enormous amount of responses for this contest that we have to extend our voting for another week! That's right we have a three-way tie between Aaron, Arturo and Kent!!

Once again, please vote for the person you feel is most deserving of a gaming crib make-over...and let's finally put this bad-boy to rest!!
I checked the site at around noon on the 13th, the day the winner is supposed to be announced, and I saw that Aaron had won. I felt so down when I saw that I had lost the sweepstakes, and now I'm given a second chance! This is so great!

So, could you guys re-vote for me? I would be really grateful!
