Giveaway: Dead Island

Norton is the lucky winner Thanks to all who entered.

HOW TO ENTER:
Say the zombie apocalypse really happened- let me see what your first TXT would be (160 character limit), for example:

The dead walk! Meet me @ bunker, bring guns and tactical bacon.

They do not have to be funny, they can be dead serious. The handful that I think are most interesting will be thrown into a Random.ORG lottery. Winner gets a Steam code for Dead Island. Contest will close when I feel enough people have entered.

Please keep the thread clean and troll free.

TXT= " .................................................. .. "- I don't text message Besides I will be too busy rereading the CDC's Zombie Apocalypse plan, loading up the shotguns, and preparing a secure location to play a copy of Dead Island that I may have won in one of theonedub's contests.

That is if this entry is counted and Random.org doesn't still hate me

Did you hear something......

Sorry, I've already won before and thus do not want to enter the contest. Unfortunately, this is just something I had to get my two cents in.


Oh crap, it seems like the meat for the McRib has finally hit rock bottom. I knew it would be the end of the world....

This is the first giveaway that I have not already owned the game, however I lack the required post count even though i have been a member for 3 years lol, guess I just don't contribute enough and read too much. You may exclude my entry due to the low post count if its unsatisfactory but I figured I would try anyway.
