Wow, awsome giveaway - I've already pre-ordered GTA5 so I'm entering for Skyrim or a runner up prize of TR.

Edit - Sorry, I missed the question.

The end of April has a 9-day public holiday which I'm really looking forwards to. April means a change of season, this being the last month without rain. It also means summer holidays are only 2 months away.

Ikaruga · Apr 11, 2015

I don't need any of those games, just want to say that it's very nice of you! Those are great games, (hope that GTA V will be a good port finally.)

I remember I started working on the 16th of April, that was my first working day

Ferrum Master · Apr 11, 2015

I am in for the GTA5. Well april? Washing bloo.... I mean dirt stained windows, and getting rid of winter heavy gear, so it means... more women in short skirts around

Liquid Cool · Apr 11, 2015

I do quite a bit of cooking for the elderly...I used to be a Financial Analyst, but my health keeps me from working a full-time gig so I pick up work where/when I can. At any rate...I like to cook healthy meals for people so I plant my own herbs...and that is what April means to me.

Heading out onto the back porch and getting my clay pots going. I fill them with Italian parsley, thyme, rosemary, basil, cilantro, dill and oregano. The cool thing is...why I'm out there I can smell the flowers just starting to bud on my Schubert Cherry trees. Spring is probably my favorite season...

.

With all of that said...I'd like to enter a shot at giving Skyrim a go. I've never played it before and I'm pretty sure it will run on my laptop.

I also wanted to mention...I saw that you won the 'Vanishing of Ethan Carter' in rtwjunkie's giveaway...I'm playing the game now and the scenery is phenomenal.

Appreciative of these giveaways,

Not entering but wanted to say that you're good people Liquid Cool.

BiggieShady · Apr 11, 2015

I am completely astonished with this awesome giveaway ... let me collect my thoughts

April means to me a time of year when you can bask in the sun feeling its warmth instead of being scorched.

I wanna enter for GTA 5 and runner up skyrim.

... and as a side note there's nothing shady about me, it's my alter ego for games such as gta 5 :toast:

Finners · Apr 11, 2015

Wow! awesome giveaway, Thank you.

This April I have just found out im going to be an uncle to to another little nephew and for the rest of the month I will be playin games and hunting for a new car

If I come runner up I would like Tomb raider please.

Steevo · Apr 11, 2015

I will enter, I already own Skyrim and Tomb raider.

rtwjunkie · Apr 11, 2015

Wow, @theonedub this is CERTAINLY a fantastic giveaway!! :respect:

I am not going to be entering, although the prizes are outstanding, without a doubt. I just want to commend you for your generous spirit, which inspired me to do giveaways of my own. Thank-you! I'm just humbled to be thrown into the same sentence as you and @manofthem as carrying on the spirit of @Kreij.

Good luck to all of the entrants! :lovetpu:

DarkOCean · Apr 12, 2015

april: nothing unusual for me, looking forward to play gta V so I would like that GTA V and Tomb raider for the runner prize

.

INSTG8R · Apr 12, 2015

Hmm April means I can get out on my bike again and open the windows again. I am in for GTA V I own the others already.

Thanks for another great giveaway!

AlienIsGOD · Apr 12, 2015

april highlight? my birthday is on Tuesday the 14th

enetering for GTA5 only as i own the other 2 games

GLD · Apr 12, 2015

If I am worthy I would like to roll the dice for GTA V. Thank's Dub. No runner up game for me as I already have them.

April is awesome for me as Easter and my brothers birthday were on the same day this year!

Noobpwner · Apr 12, 2015

Any chance I can enter this even though I don't have enough posts or thanks? I constantly read posts but I just don't have stuff to say often or am normaly learning new stuff.

Edit- l love April cause I'm almost done with junior year of high school. One more year and I'm out of here.

DonInKansas · Apr 12, 2015

April is great! Grass starts greening up, I can get out and play golf or goof off with my kids, and the winter blues start going away for my wife who struggles with seasonal depression and arthritis that the cold weather irritates.

TR for the backup; thanks for the awesome giveaway!

...PACMAN... · Apr 12, 2015

Outstanding giveaway, I'm in for GTA V please and if I'm a runner up,Tomb Raider. I did have Tomb Raider until recently but thanks to the exploits of Jboydgolfer's son it was removed from my Steam account. I played a bit of it and it was awesome, so well optimized which is nice for a change.

This April I am busy sorting out all the arrangements for going back to the UK in June. We have been in Canada for two years but unfortunately it has not turned out great so we are returning home. With 3 dogs in tow it's a bit of a pain in the rear but we are slowly getting there

Ja.KooLit · Apr 12, 2015

This april would be busy travelling for me. But also alot of training courses need to attend. And also, start of spring so alot will be in "shorter" clothes

Im in for GTA V and for runner up, id like skyrim

@theonedub thank you for the wonderful giveaway and thank you for all contributors.

:rockout:

15th Warlock · Apr 12, 2015

Thanks for the awesome giveaway!

April is my birthday month, but mostly I love it because spring is in the air haha

I'm in for GTA V, once again, thanks for donating these awesome games! Good luck everyone :rockout:

LightningJR · Apr 12, 2015

gg @Kreij, your memory will be alive in time forever. FUCK CANCER.

April is the anniversary of my 1st serious relationship, lasted almost 4 years. Like with most relationships there were ups and downs but as time passed all one remembers is the good times. Emotional pain is painful and short lived, happiness and good times last much longer, just a small tidbit of wisdom from experience to anyone experiencing emotional pain. Thanks for the giveaway.

I am in for GTA5, if I qualify for a runner up prize i'll be in for Tomb Raider since I have Skyrim.

gl and gg to all. Peace.

Maban · Apr 12, 2015

I don't always have something special happening in April, but when I do, I'm lying. I am the most uninteresting man in the world.

Only for GTAV. Exclude me from the others.

manofthem · Apr 12, 2015

Thank you @theonedub for the mighty beast giveaway! :respect:

Not entering as I'm lousy for gaming nowadays, no time anymore. :cry:

I miss @Kreij's "undercover" contests and giveaways, always disguised as an ordinary thread of sorts but holding some goodies underneath. He is missed around these parts, but we do what we can to remember him. And many do that now, @rtwjunkie, @Ahhzz, @jboydgolfer to name a few have been following those steps nicely

Toothless · Apr 12, 2015

April has amazing weather for me. Sun, wind, and not burning temperatures. And it's my first month living on my own!

GTAV and runner up Tomb Raider!

pigulici · Apr 12, 2015
