It is spring cleaning time at DH's place and everything must go (well not really). I'm giving away my autographed HL CD (with cd-key). This cd is autographed by Gabe Newell, Robin Walker, John Cook, Erik Johnson, Chuck Jones, Kelly Bailey, Doug Lombardi, Steve Bond, Bill Van Buren, Ken Birdwell?, I can't quiet make out all the sigs. Any ways, all added up, there are thirteen autographs on the disc. I'm also buying a registered copy All Seeing Eye, but I'm not stopping there. I will even give the shirt off my back. Yes, you can even own my HL T-Shirt. Jaygr The Monkey suggested I should throw myself in as a prize, but I'm not too keen on that, maybe next time. Gamespy has also tossed in two regestrations to GameSpy Arcade.

Here's the deal.
First place gets the CD. Second place gets ASE and HL T-shirt. Two third place winners recieve a regestration of GameSpy Arcade. All winners will receive a call/email confirming the win. You have 14 days to reply or you forfeit the prize. Pretty simple eh? Well, we'll see.
