ive been a moderator on
www.rccrawler.com for almost ten years now. the whole point of having this requirement is so that actual active members win the prize - not joe shmoe in nb who logged in once. also the 5 minute rule makes the giveaway process time not take all night. we have done hundreds if not thousands of giveaways, some with this same requirement . i can tell you this.... one of them we drew 35 people before a person responded in the thread... it took hours!
if you will be traveling during the giveaway then im sorry but your chance of winning might have gone out the window.
there will be other giveaways that you will qualify for - there usually are.
good luck to all who will be logged in watching the site! i shall enjoy the show!
