 For the n00bs that have crappy computers
http://wanfest.newegg.com/?page=forum&id=362Do you think your computer runs like a 1980's typewriter? Do you get negative fps in css? Well newegg has just the help for you kneegrows with sub par computers. "Newegg's- Pimp my Rig!". All you have to do is submit your POS and if you have the worst computer there you get a brand new computer that is one high end beast. I mean damn, hexcore, 4gb ddr3, ssd and a 2tb hdd, a hd 5870. I mean cmon thats crazy. So sign up all you crapo computer users (luff) and lets hope you all can catch up with the times.

 Re: For the n00bs that have crappy computers
They partnered with ESEA to do the last one. Only problem is that people try to sandbag and post some bullshit computer they pulled out of their basement from the 90s with 128mb of RAM and an onboard GPU, then you looked at their profile and they were source players...

 Re: For the n00bs that have crappy computers
It is a good idea, but you can already see by looking through the posts that people are posting decent computers to try to get a new one....it IS a really good concept, though....

Precisely. I can pull out my old dell gx110 or even the 500mhz imac (which is running windows), and I'm pretty sure that quite a lot of people are going to do things like that.

Exactly... I could put together some piece of shit, sign up, and no one would be the-wiser. Really, this seems more like a competition to see who can pull together the biggest shit-box. I don't understand how a competition like this could work.

 Re: For the n00bs that have crappy computers
"Additional consideration will be given to submissions with YouTube videos or other creative entries." I feel like if someone posted a video of their crappy computer running It'd be an step up over the people that were just like oh my computer is a 500mhz intel pentium II (but really i run a i7, I just wont win if i told you that). For example if Luff showed Wanfest that he sleeps on a trumpet, drinks more mountain dew than the manufacturer can produce, and runs a POS computer barely runs DOS without freezing then I think that would win. Also I think they might also be doing a little more in depth research on who they are giving their prizes to when they narrow the target list down. I don't believe a company is just going to give stuff out on a whim without some way of finding out if that person is really running that or not.

 Re: For the n00bs that have crappy computers
This is how the last one went... http://esea.net/index.php?s=news&d=comments&id=7920http://esea.net/index.php?s=news&d=comments&id=8008http://esea.net/index.php?s=news&d=comments&id=8141http://esea.net/index.php?s=news&d=comments&id=8484They did throw most of the sandbaggers out, but about half of those were, just not blatant. Luff, you have a real shot at winning this. If it goes to voting like it did last time, you know you can count on at least 200 votes.

 Re: For the n00bs that have crappy computers
I'll gladly vote for Luff! He spends most of his money on food, so I'm sure he's got a crappy computer!

 Re: For the n00bs that have crappy computers
Luff has a real shot at this, his computer is worse than a broken typewriter in the dusty basement of old man jenkins! JK no seriously tho I'd vote for you buddy!! I really recommend taking pictures AND making a video showing how lacking ur computer really is lol. One inside shot of the thing, with the brown pcb and you'll know, this compy is poopy.
