Im not saying anyone is cheating or doing anything wrong but depending on ow the queue sustem on the forums is programmed it seems the lower numbered players have a better chance at getting posted first. If you dont know what a priority queue is here is a link.

Anyway, it kind of stinks but congratulations to everyone who got one! Just a progrmamers two cents on this :)

"If two elements have the same priority, they are served according to their order in the queue."
So unless "priority" is given to the user number, wouldn't it just be first in first out?

Mowen (#54482) I think it was just everyone was kind of posting at once and there wasn't a bunch of spam from the start so it slowed down the servers a bit. I've never had trouble with latency, only lag (lag's when it's a server thing, latency is when it's just you). Although, I'm sure everyone's happy there wasn't a lot/any spam this time :)

Thats what I meant, it could be according to anything. Priority could be set to the last letter of the username and its place in the alphabet. Giving staff priority seems logical to me under normal circumstances.

Are we allowed to win in more than one giveaway (not that it matters, I will be sleeping for the next one)?
