nope thats whats 6 weeks in a row that fb has won a bowling ball and let me guess there have been 0 new people from facebook to the boards since fb people started winning.

like one thing i have noticed was that bowlingboards dose not come on here anymore to count up posts they only seem to go to the facebook page to pick a winner it only seems they come on here after they post a fb winner on facebook.

its not just you look how bad the boards have been the past week the chat area is slow for posting msg's but then there was that malewar virus thing that happened.

but the main key i never see bowlingboards on here at all other then after they have picked a winner from facebook.

at the same time, complaining wont do anything seeing as board members have been complaining about it since the announcement of fb being included in the contest. Regardless of how many pms the admin has gotten since then, fb still continues to win 9/10 contests

yeah i'm taking down these numbers and on monday of next week im going to be sending bowlingboards a msg with the numbers and they are going to see how thats the boards has dropped in everything and all the new members i'm adding up all the bots that have be joining because if you take a look at the whos online and see the leaf type of sign below the instant msg area and look at where all those people are all they mostly go to the youth, high school and college bowling pages and they sit there for hrs

So I guess that it is false advertising when they tell us that all our posts count towards chances to win the ball each week. Has anyone here won a ball by just being on the FORUM and not on FB? Well I guess that I will just have to be satisfied with my two balls I have now. :cool:

False advertising doesn't work like that. Since the forum is free, you're not buying anything. So they're luring you to a site...but you're not being asked to pay for anything. And they aren't trying to sell you anything. You'd have a better false advertising case against dating sites that lure you in with promises of love yet leave out important things like the girl to guy ratio being between 2:3 and 1:5.

You need to win something just for making me always think there is a bug on my screen when I see your signature. I mean you think I would have learned by now but no, it still gets me.

True this isn't false advertising but there are sweepstakes and contests laws I believe.

1) Wait...where? Is she hot?
2) Getting naked to win stuff...tends to work for 20 something through 50 something women. Getting naked when you're a man usually only wins you a permanent spot on your State's sex offender registry. Then you gotta weigh winning a ball versus not being able to give out Halloween candy...so I guess it depends on the ball. Meanstreak Beatdown or Pyramid Path...not worth it. But, If they give out an Aura Mystic or a new Storm Byte...then ya really, really gotta think twice. :rolleyes: :cool:

Really? Where at? Because I'm currently getting naked for free so if I can get some kinda payoff for it...I'd be interested. I have no restrictions such as shame or pride...so let me know where I can take advantage of that deal.

lol i seen that picture on hammers facebook page i was going to do the same thing but a real ice ball with no water but problem the store down the street was all out of ice and i needed at least 10-15 bags then i was going to use one of my bowling balls stands and put in on the edge of the tube and make it look like my hammer ball is in it with me.

I think Brunswick guarantees a 20-pin increase in average whenever you buy a Meanstreak Beatdown...so yes, "game" comes with it.

Ya know why I should win this ball?? And I JUST realized this (way to go me for paying attention)...October 27th is MY BIRTHDAY!!! Go Aslan...it's your birthday! Go Aslan, it's yer birthday!!

Someone is getting a new bowling ball for his birthday!!! And that somebody is MEeeeeee!

I've only ever had one Brunswick ball, a slingshot when I first started bowling. I didn't bowl with it long, it was too reactive and I had no idea what I was doing!

I'm gonna actually agree with nomc here…so many people out there saying how bad they need a free ball…yet I bought a Storm Polar Ice on Ebay for less than $8. Many pro-shops have good used balls for $12-$15…and good entry level balls for $59-$79.

Roto Grip Scream for $90??? Hmmm…I may have to do some bargain shopping...

Nevermind. Just did a little online shopping, the Scream is more entry level than I thought it was and you can get them as low as $65.

If this were true, I'd buy 3.

I don't think it's accumulative. I think you have to at least buy 3 different Brunswicks to get 60 pins.
