Yeah I entered that right away, I'd be more than happy winning ANY of those things.
Either way, they're fun to imagine winning.

You guys are on crack if you think that rig will be outdated anytime soon. DUAL 7800 GTX 512 MB CARDS, c'mon, thats by no measure standard, even on current rigs lol.

This is just a ploy to get more subscriptions! I could never be fooled by such a transpartent manipulation!
But...miniscule chance of aquiring godly hardware...

Curses! You win this time, BioWare....

I also didn't realize I was a bioware member until I went to that site and my name was already taken.
Anyway, I know I will win this contest. How? By the power of PURE OPTIMISM!
(Warning: pure optimism may falter in presence of harsh reality)

Well, I could use that PC, but, I mean, its not much better than my 2600+ AMD Athlon, with 1 gig RAM and Radeon 9600 128 MB graphics card.

Anybody read down below where it says in order to win a prize, contestants will have to asnwer a skill based question? I wonder what that's about.

At first I thought you were joking. Then I realized, since this is a Canadian contest, this is what I usually see. ALL our contests have you answer a skill testing question if you win (unless you're a Quebecer, who have their own system).
It's usually something completely easy like:
3 x 6 + 5 / 8 = ?
I suppose it's our way of keeping retards from winning stuff.
