CONGRATS Hero!!!

This is going to be confusing.......
Gerry's last two(or three. forget if Oracle said he wouldn't count any) didn't count because he didn't wait 5 posts.

Congratulations

Gee! SOoooooooooooo sorry! I forgot about that. I was just so anxious for someone to win! I am very sorry if I have messed up everything!

From what I read...

There were going to be bonus points if there were no double posts... like, above the 10,000. And... anyone who multi-posted (within 5 posts) during the last 50 posts couldn't win. If a multi-poster was 1000 than 1001 would win.

Since I didn't multi-post during the game at all... I'm thinking my being at 1000 is valid.

Thanks for the congrats Gerry

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO I missed it!!!!

*RazorX sobs uncontrollably

Oh well congrats Gisbertus Voetius

so we got past 1000 already? cool!

congra to you, IamThatHero!

Huh? But I thought Gisbertus Voetius was the winner? I am confused?

??? last night my post said 1000.... I am very confused.

weird, maybe a post got deleted..

One of mine was since I accidently posted too early :o

Who deleted your post?

I don't understand what you mean by you posted too early?

I did notice last night you multi-posted within the 5 post limit thing. That just disqualified you from being able to win... I don't know that it was fair to delete it and alter the results... it would have been one thing to delete your "accidental" early post before someone got to 1000... but it wasn't. It was after the fact.

I really don't care who wins... but last night when I posted I posted because it showed 999 posts... had it shown 998 posts I would not have posted at that time. Last night it showed my post as 1000.

I really don't care if I get extra blessing points or not... they can give me all, half or none... It doesn't change the fact that I'm glad I found this site and am enjoying posting here. I do care if the site I post at practices fairness though.

(note: I was really excited last night when my post said 1000... I thought it was really cool. I'm new here and I thought it was neat to win something... though insignificant in the real world... it was just fun. I went to bed happy. Then this morning I came in to read the new posts and all and looked and saw I was no longer #1000... it maded me a little sad, a little disappointed. Anyway... God is still good! And He is my Joy provider... all's good  )

no!!!!!!!!! I was supposed to win!

too late

Since I jumped in and created all this confusion, I will do what I can to help straighten it out. Who the ultimate winner will be I do not know. But after
IamThatHero expalined that she would not have posted when she did, had she known, and since she went to bed thinking she was the winnwer because of my mess up, I am going to give her 4400 blessings and an IOU for 5600 more. I am realt sorry I have not been playing this game and forgot about the 5 post rule. I was watching and really hoping to be #999, which I would have been had there not been the 5 post rule which I forgot about. I apologize again to all thos playing so patiently for messing this up and causing all this confusion.

Gerry:

That's not necessary.
Iamthathero was the rightful winner so she deserves the blessing.

Gisbertus

Gerry...

Thanks so much for wanting to give me all those blessings
I will not try to give them back because it's not right to not acept someone's wanting to bless you... but, please don't worry about giving me any more. It's not about getting all the points... it was just fun for me to see if I could post right at 1000.

Gisbertus... maybe we can split the blessings...I would like to share them with you if they are given to me.

I really am confused as to what exactly happened last night. All I know is that when I posted I was on 1000... 30 minutes later, before I went to bed I was still on 1000. Then this morning I came on and saw I was on 999 and was kinda confused.
