To think that if MNHQ promise me a PM and a prize for winning the n/c comp, they should give me one...

I want a present. I want a present. I want a present.

I did start hear a rumour they were going to give me Tech's half packet of digestives and that's why the site had that MASSIVE meltdown the other day.

I won a prize that never materialised about 3 yrs ago. I asked for Habitat vouchers which shows you the vintage of my claim. Gave up asking in the end.

ChaoticforlifenotjustChristmas · 13/12/2012 10:58

Does "give me one" only mean a really rood thing yo me, then?

Errr...no Xmas Grin

you dirty people, you.

I wish to make it clear that I am in no way attempting to solicit sexual favours from the good people at MNHQ.

Don't get your hopes up. I went to London to do filming for Barclays. I was promised a £150 voucher and every time I chase it up I'm fobbed off. Very disappointing seeing as getting there left me out of pocket and I was going to use the voucher to get my DDs (age 2 and 4) a Christmas present :'(

Waaaaaahhhhhhh I WANT PRESENTS!!!!!!!!!!!!! Pick me pick me! Send them ALL to me.

waaaaahhhhhhhhh!

fuzzypicklehead · 13/12/2012 12:43

I never win presents. :(

PurplePidjChickIsNotTheMessiah · 13/12/2012 13:12

I don't win stuff because the competitions page doesn't load properly on a blackberry playbook Xmas Sad

And i missed out on most of the product tests because up until 3 1/2 weeks ago i didn't have a child Xmas Sad

I'll try again next year, though.

fuzzypicklehead · 13/12/2012 13:14

I'm going to add MN competition wins to my cosmic ordering list. That'll do it.

TeeElfOnTeeShelf · 13/12/2012 13:22

"And i missed out on most of the product tests because up until 3 1/2 weeks ago i didn't have a child"

Not sure you can blame MN for that! In case you didn't know, the "when a mummy and a daddy share a special cuddle" explanation does not mention MN.

No, but i can still piggyback onto Hec's foot-stamping petulance to strop about the lack of opportunities for non-parents! [fsulk]

I also won an all expenses paid Las Vegas 5* holiday on here. Helen remembers don'tcha?

TheHoneyDragonsDrunkInTheIvy · 13/12/2012 13:44

Can someone check on Bedmonster. That laptop may well be her only portal to Mnet.

Mnet bought me a new TV when mine broke Smile that was pretty cosmic.

NagooHoHoHo · 13/12/2012 14:03

purple congrats on the 3.5week old child :)

have they decided what to give you yet hec?

HECTheHallsWithRowsAndFolly · 13/12/2012 14:12

I believe I'm getting half a pack of soggy biscuits that Hugh Grant had his chops round last week.

But not the gin.

They PM'd me, trying to convince me there was no gin.

There was gin.

TheHoneyDragonsDrunkInTheIvy · 13/12/2012 14:17

It's MNHQ

There is always gin.

CatPussRoastingOnAnOpenFire · 13/12/2012 19:10

You'd better hope you don't get one of those hampers containing aspirin, 300 condoms, razors and all that other stuff! You'll wish you hadn't asked! Confused

MulledPinot · 13/12/2012 19:17

Hec you are funny Xmas Grin

Can Tech give you your Hecate name back as some kind of consolation for PMing to the wrong place etc?

SomeTiggyPudding · 13/12/2012 19:47

Isn't there going to be some kind of drug testing before the prizes are given out?
