I think the pattern is 3 fb winners then a forum winner. Or is it 4 fb then a forum winner? Either way, this is a fb ball :)

I think it's just a facebook contest any more, if anyone on here won a ball they would post something about winning it.

They need to change the so called "General Giveaway Rules" to reflect you need to be on facebook to win, joining and posting on this site is meaningless to winning the ball.

I agree. There is no point in posting on this site anymore, I just post on the giveaway forum for the heck of it

Would love to have a new ball to start next fall season with!

Wait, what? I thought it was just posts on here. What does facebook have to do with it? Are there hidden rules not mentioned?

Do you use either of the balls you've won? I see nine in your signature, but neither of the ones you mentioned.

Boy! What a big surprise. When I joined this forum I was made to believe that every post I made was an entry to win a free ball. I thought that that would be exciting. I am able to talk about bowling with other folks with the same interest and have a chance to win a free bowling ball. Now you guys are telling me that you can only win a free ball if you are on FACEBOOK? Why do the rules say that you can win a ball from the FORUM with your entries you post? That sounds kind of crooked to me. Boy! That's a little disappointing to me. I thought that it was my usual luck of not ever winning anything in any contest I entered. Now I find out that I would have never won a ball here no matter how many post I entered here. Now the thing of never winning anything in a contest fit right in being here on this forum. At least now I know why I would never have won anything here. So without me knowing it my winless streek would have continued. How do the rules work for the contest where you register to win a ball every week? Is there some special rule I don't know about there? Like maybe you have to stand on your head and rotate you eyes counter clockwise while juggling two spare balls and you have to tape it and send it in to get your free ball. Now there is something I can't do. Oh well! I guess that I will have to be happy with the ball I bought and forget about this nonsense of winning one here. I better start saving for a new ball. At least I am sure I can get one that way.

I still want the chance to win a first blood but i will take anything lol

[SmilingBowler]

HOLY SMOKES!! That's AMAZING!!

Especially after the day I had fighting off a nasty stomach bug.

This made my day! Credit goes to you folks who keep this forum active, fun and informative.

Cheers! (: .)

[SmilingBowler]

For the record, I was contacted via private message here from a forum administrator. Not through Facebook.
I assume I am a winner chosen for my posts to these boards, rather than my Facebook likes, comments and shares.

Congrats!

[SmilingBowler]

My ball arrived today! It'll be drilled this week. I'll post photos once its drilled.

Thanks again for the continuous help, support and conversation here. Cheers!
