 SimHQ would like to thank everyone who entered the contest and to our partners in this contest, Thrustmaster and SimWare Simulations! ReschkeThrustmaster HOTAS WARTHOG Winner: North America Winning Post Mac 4PSThrustmaster HOTAS WARTHOG Winner: Worldwide Winning Post Reschke and Mac 4PS... Please send me a private message with your contact information including your full shipping address and name. SimWare Simulations will be shipping Mac 4PS' HOTAS to him and SimHQ will be shipping Reschke's. Original Contest Announcement http://www.simhq.com/_contests/hotas_warthog_contest.htmlContest Entries Thread http://simhq.com/forum/ubbthreads.php/topics/3125101/1/Win_a_Thrustmaster_HOTAS_Warth.html--------------------- EDIT: I've been asked this info on judging and realized it has not been posted, so: Judges were from Thrustmaster's Marketing and Development Teams, SimWare Simulations, and SimHQ. Besides creativity, the only other criteria was, "Why do you want to win..." and the judges determined which posts best answered the question. Each judge sent me (and only me) their selections -- they did not know how the other judges voted in the competition until I told them an hour ago. I made my selections before seeing any of their selections. The winners were determined by the most judges votes for their entry.

If you watch Jaws backwards, it's a heart warming story about a shark that spits out so many people that they have to open a beach.

Congratulations! 
Do you hear that, Fezzik? That is the sound of ultimate suffering. My heart made that sound when the six-fingered man killed my father.

You guys have no idea how much this means to me. Congrats! And I hear ya...early last year I got laid off from a 15 year job in IT. I'm now back in school full time, trying to move on to a second career and leave IT behind, although that's still my fallback.

I am hoping to avoid the school route Teej but I may not have a choice. My field is so limited in scope it isn't even funny and I haven't been able to openly advertise myself for a new job yet in this field because of a couple of contractual obligations. To finally get a "win" in something makes me feel so good! Just when I was trying to figure out what I could sell to make enough money to buy one...For Mac I know what he means because I just told my wife and she honestly was ecstatic for me.
