him over there said:
On a side note, your thread title made me lose the game.
Glad I wasn't the only one.
OT: That's nice. I never win anything, except for that one time in Prep where I won a jewellery voucher that was used to replace the wedding ring my dad lost digging a big ol' hole some time.

That is one impressive pooch, try to find a way to make sure he doesn't shrivel up too quick.

Best thing I ever won was the honour of opening one of my area's fireworks display. First firework was the size of a small melon, and I definitely shouldn't have been leaning over the barrel when I lit it, cos the fuse wasn't messing around. Scary as hell, but awesome all the same.

After reading the title, the only thing I could think of was EVERY GAME ON STEAM.

My most fond memory of winning would probably be when I was very, very little. My parents bought a lottery ticket at a stand and let me scratch it. I won the price of a ticket, so we exchanged it for another and I won again. Repeat. Anyhow, I won 3 consecutive times and nothing on the fourth. The end result is still that I didn't win anything, but I still won the lottery 3 times mother fu**ers >_>

I won a caption contest for Lost Planet 2, and I got a copy of Street Fighter 4 for it. That is probably the best thing I have won.

I won a copy of Crimecraft during an old escapist give away... Happy I won, but the game was terrible.

I won a contest on this very site! One guy had a spare five bucks he wanted to spend on a Steam Gift. I guessed the right answer, and won Bastion, which was on sale at the time!

This [http://www.kcentstudios.com/index.php/videos/film/88-1up-the-extra-life-documentary-logo-designs] very recently, although you can see there wasn't much competition. And when I played tennis a long time ago I was actually pretty good, and set a record for my area's 10 and under division. Not that that's saying much.

I won a bottle of champagne in a costume contest 2 years ago :D

But i dont drink, so its been in the back of my fridge. It'll be a nice thing to have in case the world really does end. ((While i highly doubt it will, i might as well be prepared for it.))

I won my U18 soccer final which was played at a real stadium. I have never won anything in a raffle or giveaway though...

My father won the ability to purchase a hockey tickets at the Olympics, we got the 5th v. 1st elimination round (Canada/Russia game), the the Gold Medal Hockey game for both men and womens, and the female bronze medal game. All were located in the lower bowl. I was maybe 40 feet away from Sydney Crosby scoring the gold metal goal.

Yeah. We got lucky

The only thing I ever recall winning was a basketball hoop.
it's a 9 foot tall one to be precise.

Grats on winning the balloon dog, but how are you gonna keep it intact?

My mum won some Playstation games and a couple CD's from a radio station when I was little.
She also won my little sister a copy of The Sims 3 when it came out from the radio (Yeah, my mum's good at that sort of stuff).

One of my friends won a $10,000 electronics set-up (PS3, 50 inch TV, Surround Sound, all that Jazz).

Also, one of my uncles won 2nd division in the lotto (here in New Zealand that's about $25,000).

But me personally? Nah. I don't really enter things though.

I won 20 dollars from a raffle once. That's about it since I'm not very lucky.

Well, I won a copy of Skyrim during the steam holiday sale, a $60 value.
-tho like most people by now, I already had Skyrim, but it made for a nice gift for my friend

I rarely ever (re: practically never) win anything, but I did once win a copy of the first (and best) Pirates of the Caribbean movie, along with some candy and soda to go with it. That was pretty cool. My sister won a flat screen once, but I have never been that lucky. :(

I won a nVidia motherboard and twin SLI 7950's, and they served me well back in the day. Won £350 prize money in the intel AppUp started competition, bought a good netbook with that. All the things I've won took a lot of work, way more man hours than the prizes justify, but competitions are a good way to establish a deadline, and get projects finished in time.
