Competitions: More Twitter Fun

Posted by Darren Calvert

Win 2000 Nintendo points by giving nintendolife a shout out!

Here’s an easy competition that could win you 2000 Nintendo points to spend on downloadable games of your choosing. Simply follow us on Twitter and tweet the following phrase to your personal Twitterverse:

"Follow @nintendolife because they ................."

Obviously you fill in the blank bit of the phrase. The tweet which we enjoy the most will win the prize, so be creative!

We will pick the winner at a random time tomorrow, so tweet away! (Only one follow tweet per person please!)

This competition is open to residents of North America, Europe and Australia.

The competition has now closed! Well done ejamer!

I still refuse to join Twitter, anyhow you should all follow @nintendolife because they have an obsession with getting people to join Twitter with the allure of free points

We're into self-promotion. And we're one step away from begging for money like IGN did years ago when they almost went under. It's all in the master plan, you understand. :D

Ditto what Pixelman says.

I haven't got Twitter as I don't really see me using it often.

Someone help we with this. I've got Twitter now under (A combination of my first name and username which sounds really weird) HenryTerranigma (For any future competitions involving Twitter) but I'm not sure what to do exactly. I know it says above but I'm a complete idiot with Twitter

@terranigma do a search for Nintendolife, and they should show up as a result. Click on the Follow button to follow their posts. Click on Home to take u to ur homepage, then use the status box near the top of the page to type in ur contest entry

@irken004 - Thanks. I've submitted mine now. I should really put a photo up on there or something

@Corbie - Can't we just do some spamathon to loads of people for advertising? :D

@Dazza - Wouldn't you know it... my best one came to mind right after I posted the first. They always told me he who hesitates is lost. That's the last time I listen to the voices in my head.

My true opinion. Started following your sites (not on twitter) since your early vc-reviews times. Because of you I experienced great games like Star Parodier and Sin&Punishment, which I wouldn't have realized without your reviews (and hypers in the comments).

I'm with Kid_A, KS8 and Raddixs, not planning to support tweeter in any way, but I understand NL needs the promotion, I hope it works :), good luck to everybody.

So when are you guys running a competition that doesn't require signing up to a service that some might not want to? Why are you limiting it to Twitter or whatever the next Internet fad is. Is it not enough that I visit NintendoLife, I have to go there too before being considered?

Rant over, ignore me, I'm sure you have your reasons.

I win, because I'm a lot more handsome than you guys. And I got a match between my teeth. Which is awesome. Undeniable proof.

Darn it, Bensei. I think yours might win! Mine was sort of like yours, but you did a better job. Good luck, though!

Dazza said:

C'mon guys, any more tweets for us? We really like anything with Chuck Norris, monkeys or random crap if you want some clues.

The "they made me post this..." tweets are getting a bit stale :-p

Also please post your Twitter profile link here so we know who is who!

Terra said:

When are you announcing the winner? I'd post something like you said Dazza if you hadn't told us we were only allowed one entry.

Hmm, didn't realize we had to do that... but guess there's not much harm to be done given how silly my twitter is anyway. ;)

Also, I was going to make my tweet a Chuck Norris rip-off originally, but thought that would've already been completely overdone! D'oh!
