awesome thanks.
500+ captchas done and still no win. I think my typing skills became superior and my brain got dizzy
I am seeing CAPTCHAs everywhere, send help.
I just won !!
Now i need to see how much shipping cost it is to belgium. If it's too high, I might give my code away since i couldn't use it.
I give up Y_Y

I'd expect around 40-50 euros since import fees will screw you over.
Seems it's something like 20$. Not that much, I will consider it.
I gave up as well, I'd rather not end up with a sore hand because Sparkfun can't think up a decent giveaway challenge, not that you'd be able to get much for 100$ anyway what with their inflated prices.
Was about to give up hope... after entering over 1 hour of my life away I have a code!
Same thing here. They should've sticked to the quiz, now tons of idiots from slickdeals got parts they'll just resell on eBay.
I love how pissed people can get over not getting stuff for free.

I don't think it's the 'not getting stuff for free', rather I think it's the fact that captchas are the single greatest rage-inducer known to man and no single human being should be subjected to more than one or two a day, let alone several thousand.
And when there's the possibility of winning a hundred dollars worth of gear, I think most feel obligated to give it a serious shot.
After like two hours I was starting to go insane.

I'm pretty sure one of my captchas was a wave equation or some shit.
to think I forgot about this and I bumped it so people could remember.
:saddowns:
I missed out of this because I had school, you guys are rather lucky.
Well, there goes my chance to introduce myself to electronics, maybe next year I'll dive into it. IF I'll have the money.
aaand I completely missed it
Fuck
