    Wow! I was about to congratulate you on FB. Don't think I will now I know you are the one who wouldn't share on here but would willingly take! Unlucky to Jane.
    Thanks to all posters :A
  • I love MSE and try my best to share comps and answers when i can. I just wish that some peolpe who sign up to it would also join in the spirit of things and also share and not just take. I suppose we cant all be the same !!:(

  • It just shows how spiteful people are . Not one of you shared an exclusive code, just rehashing the same codes, taking them from Facebook and pasting them here. I didn't see one exclusive code being shared until it was widely available.

    Maybe the next time you might actually consider congratulating the winner due to the effort they put into it instead of hoping that people sitting around on their computer waiting for codes to be shared online without doing any real work will win.

    I think you failed to understand the concept of the competition, it wasn't the amount of codes that would be the only factor. It was the time they were entered so as that they would be worth the most. The fact that I spoke my mind is what upset you but let me tell you that there is members who were here acting like they were part of the good sharing community that released codes to you 2/3 days after using it, they took the value out of it and then passed it on hence playing you all. I didn't share any codes with you but I did not take any codes from MSE as I already had them through my own efforts.

    Jailbaby, it's funny that you say that, it sounds like much of the comments that were going on over on Facebook that were saying "money changes people", I was reading these comments and just thinking that it certainly does because you could see what people turned into over me winning the competition. Everyone was saying how the competition should be fun etc... and look at what people ended up doing.

    So as I received such a warm welcome here at MSE for having an open mind and voicing my opinion that goes against most of the people that are stuck in the "system". I will bid you all farewell and go back to viewing MSE just like before once this thread is done. Not logged in and not taking part in discussion.
  • Guys, I also should let you know that £26,000 wasn't the only prize, I also got an Iphone 4s with Vodafone 12 Month pre-paid sim card and 1 year unlimited Cineworld pass. :D

    Try this code CJS3R from kiss website yesterday (it was inside film article). The code is no longer there today but it still valid. It gave me 5 days :j. I am not going to win but somebody might win with it! Cheers!

    YOU ARE LIAR! :mad::mad::mad: FOR EXAMPLE, Here is the code I EXCLUSIVELY SHARED on both Facebook and MSE. THIS is actually the code YOU ALREADY HAD AND DID NOT HAD THE DECENCY TO SHARE with us because you are selfish and only joined this forum for your own gain!

    So please leave this place, shut your mouth and go and boast about your doubtful win somewhere. We are here always happy when people win as it goes to show that it is possible.

    Unfortunately, in your case you only proved that often person can only win by cheating.

    Only one more thing to add: what goes around, comes around.

    And I am not going to continiue this conversation anymore. :mad:

    "Liar" and "Cheat", WoW, money does drive people crazy to an extent that they start making wild accusations.

    The code you posted is already shared, that's not what I was speaking about. There is a code that is not shared on here at all and was worth quite a few days and I did have the code and didn't share it but at least I let you all know that I wasn't going to share from the get go. However there is one member who was quite happy sharing codes that were already freely available and taking all the codes other members were sharing and did not share this code and I know they had the code.

    I took nothing from this forum, I had all the codes before you posted them.

    You really need to stop being a keyboard warrior, I am more than willing to meet up with you or anyone on this forum and have them call me a liar and a cheat to my face.
    If you are up for doing that, then you will get the chance to re-live the 9 days of the competition with me and I will show you exactly what it takes to win this competition.

    Yes, you are correct. What goes around comes around, so hopefully someday you win a competition and you get exactly the same done to you!

    P.S You are obviously not ALWAYS happy when people win.
  • Hello Ronan /Coolbean68, Congtrats on the win. If yoy are sreiously offering a chance to "relive the 9 days of competion to show exactly what it takes to win the competion" choose me!! I still want to know where, when and the values of the codes.I don't seem to be able to get that from the website despite asking.
    I am disappointed that whilst you say you may have taken nothing from the forum, neither did you offer anything. The codes and conditions were available to everyone through the site. This was not extra information. Others did give codes and it was only that information which allowed me to take part and be 48th. How good is that!!!!! It is evident that a number of people signed up hoping to take advantage of information at the time this competition was running and they obviously did not bother to take on board that whilst this is a forum it is a sharing one. There are many members and often this means that someone else will "beat you to the draw", but who cares as they are sharing the information. I really like belonging to such a forum.
    Apologies to those of you who would say this belongs elsewhere - it is the only likely place Ronan will see it.
    To those of you who did not share your codes, but used those from others, shame on you. Ronan, shame on you for gloating - you all are in need of a good thwack! Patricia Havard.:(

    Patricia, you are more than welcome to come down to London and re-live the 9 days. You would need to come to London as you will have to experience travelling the Tube every morning at 5.30 to Stratford stopping off at Zone 1 stations on the way.

    You will also need to make sure you are part insomniac or be able to switch it on when needed and be prepared to drink lots of coffee. You would also need to make sure your eyes don't get strained or you don't get headaches from long periods of being on a computer.

    If this sounds like you, please let me know and we can set about re-living those 9 days.

    How am I gloating? Everyone here has all their prizes posted in their signature, as this was my first ever competition, I felt I would let everyone know.

    By the way, we had the conversation about Thwacks on Facebook and I told you that they used to be my favourite chocolate bar, if you know some place to still get them, then I would feel well deserved of a good Thwack.

    PostScript: I would like to point out that although this is a sharing forum, there are many prying eyes that come from Google/Yahoo/Bing who never sign up so you should not attack a fellow member for simply join/discuss/share what information they feel is necessary as many people don't join this forum at all and still manage to see what you are writing.

    You should be ashamed of yourselves as members of a community and perhaps you should consider joining the Police Force/Army if you wish to extract information from people.
