After hundreds and hundreds of entries and many, many sleepless nights, I was finally crowned the winner of a brand spanking new Xbox 360 three hours ago! Now, goodness knows I'm not exactly the blogging type, but in this case... BOW DOWN BEFORE ME MAGGOTS, FOR I AM YOUR GOD!&@^%!@&*^%!$#^@! <insert thunderous orgasm here>

Ahem.

So, here's the deal. After screwing Canada over for quite some time with their USA-only "Win An Xbox 360 Every 10 Minutes" promotion, Pepsi finally launched the Canadian counterpart on October 2nd. Since then, I've been dropping one PIN into every hourly draw I've been awake for (and trust me -- I haven't missed a whole lot). Well, fast forward 12 days, and what do I have to show for all my hard work? An Xbox 360 Premium Pack, valued at $499CAD -- that's what! Or, the promise of one to come, at least. I won't be receiving it for another month yet, but I *will* have it before the system hits retail. Doesn't get much sweeter than that, does it?

For those who are wondering, I *will* be accepting sexual favors in exchange for a pre-release test drive. Bring your girlfriends, sisters, female friends, female cousins, mothers, attractive grandmothers, and conjoined twins down to Edmonton, and I'll see what I can do (if you catch my drift).

I'm pleased to announce that, after a *major* site-wide overhaul, we're now fully XHTML 1.0 and CSS 2 compliant! What does this mean to you, the end-user? If you're using an alternative browser (such as Firefox or Opera), you'll now see what the rest of us do in Internet Explorer -- the site as intended. And, uh, that's about it. Not particularly exciting news, I know. Nonetheless, when you spend ~18 hours working on something, you don't want it to go unnoticed. So... enjoy?

UPDATE (10/12): Since this post is so desperately in need of a little spice, I'd also like to announce that I've added an easter egg to the site. It's accessible on every page and it's well worth finding, so what are you waiting for? Last one to find it is a rotten... EGG!

Did somebody say drag & drop file sorting? If so, PODium 2.25 may be just what the doctor ordered! That's right -- yet another incremental update. Head to the PODium product page if this sort of thing floats your boat.

Another day, another version. This time around, it's Yawtzee 1.44. I would assume this'll be the last release before the next major version, but how many times have I said that in the past? No matter how small, there always seems to be *some* sort of problem floating around.

Yawtzee: Betcha can't release just one!
