I can safely say, my article got a very high amount of honest comments & that too all positive feedbacks but i think, it would have been good to not judge the winner by the maximum number of comments.I think, the winner should be someone who got maximum number of positive feedbacks or whose articles has been liked most.It should be based on quality,rather than quantity.

This was a great contest. I’ve followed it with interest. It will be exciting to see who the eventual winner is. I know that some of the members of my family all posted comments, using the same computer. EGADS!
Hope you get over the food poisoning quickly. I know what a horrible experience that is!

Hey Ryan, how does it feel to know that you banned me and I was the only legit person in the contest? I wrote to the Ceo of HP. I can’t believe you banned me to protect yourself, that was cheap man. You changed my daily routine of coming on Geeks because of it and your poor management of the contest.

My husband had a bad case of salmonella recently. I don’t know how I didn’t get it, because we ate at the same restaurants. Drink lots of fluids, and I hope you feel better soon!

Thanks to all involved, I met lots of great people and had the chance to read lots of fun articles. As I thought about ya;ll having to moderate and sort all of this, i kept flashing back to the time I decided to give a college class of 1200 students an essay exam. You took on the hard challenge, and the quality here shows. happy holidays and fast healing to Chris

I’d just like to wish everyone good luck! I wont win because mine just went up last night, but I’m just happy I got featured on the blog. :)

Thanks Chris for providing us with a contest and useful info at the same time! A lot of the other blogs running the contest did something like “follow our twitter account and post a comment”.
