The funny part about all of this is that in the end, every will get their money, even with our company's name having been dragged through the mud. I've explained why there was a delay and can only hope that people are understanding.

For the most part, the money we give away is in return for absolutely nothing - it's a lottery, it's money that the people didn't have to do anything to earn.

I have administered several promotions on this board and we have ALWAYS been good for the money and/or prizes, this year alone we have given away:

$10,000 in cash at Internext Vegas
$1000 in a photoshop contest
4 Xbox360 premium systems
$1000 to one team for beating team Python at Gears of War...
Hundreds of promotional T-shirts at shows

$15,000 in prizes in the past few months, and when the Deal or No Deal promo payouts are all taken care of, that will tack on another $10,000 or so.

So that's $25,000 in cash and prizes given away in the past 4 months.
