Guess I didn't win last week. A "Deranged" would be a nice addition to my bag !!!

the deranged is a good ball but will not work for me at all at the bowling alley i bowl at, i got too much speed and revs that i'm already playing straight up the 3 board with my brawler and freeze you cant cross boards much here so the ball will not hook back in but the bowling alley i bowl at is more ment for slower bowlers but im trying to slow down i'm throwing maby 18mph compared to the 20-21 mph i use to throw

Yall might as well give up. Another facebook post won it last week. It has been what now, 2 months since a poster won?

At least increase your chances and like/share on facebook too. If you can't beat em, join em lol.

Lets not get too out of hand here...

1) It's giving away a free ball. I congtaulate the site for doing it...whether I ever win or not.
2) I doubt it's a "conspiracy". There are probably a large number of Facebook folks...a relatively smaller number of forum folks that are actively posting...AND...the forum posts need to be of a certain "quality" (which cancels out 90% of mine).

I like this ball, it's on my "wish list"...I'd love to win it...but at the end of the day...it's a contest, a giveaway. If they take balls from us to give away randomly...well, then thats different. But its their game, their giveaway, their investment...whatever. Maybe someday I'll win...probably never...if it happens it happens.

I like your attitude Aslan. I hate it when people are angry about not winning, if it happens it happens, if not it wasn't meant to be.
Off topic does anyone know how to put your stats like high game and such on the bottom of where you post?

i think its more so it has to do with the contests originally only being on here. Posters here contribute and interact meanwhile people on fb click like and whine about how much they need the ball as a comment. The goal of fb is to get people to join here, but them giving away mostly to fb goes against that business plan as your chances are better on fb and it requires about 1 min of effort.

Being somewhat deranged myself, it might be a great match..

I like your attitude Aslan. :eek:

Whoa. That has never been said before.

You're a new person Sara...after a certain number of posts, you can add a "signature" by going to your "settings" tab.

the distubed looks like an awesome ball but youd need enough oil for it. I think the scream would fit nicely under your shatter
