Twitter Pimp Contest Update

As many of you know, I post updates about 2old2play Community Events and Activities via my Twitter account (http://twitter.com/AOWWaterborn). Well I wanted to give you an update on the 2oldd2play Twitter Pimp Contest that is still going on. As some of you already know, Twitter as an excellent medium by which I could get the word out about 2old2play and all the cool things we have going on,  so I started up the Twitter Pimp Contest a few weeks ago. Basically, contestants vie for a chance to win free SWAG by referring others to follow me on Twitter. All you have to do is get a friend to follow me via Twitter and then post a message stating that they were referred by you. What's at stake you ask? The first person to refer 25 new followers will win a full set of Gears of War Comics (Issue # 1 - 6, plus the LE Gamestop Edition of Issue # 1).

To bring everyone up to date, here is a list of who is currently leading the pack (as of 7:00 am EST on 2-17) with the most referrals:

Seeson – 17 followers (Still in the lead)

SFX_LADYJ – 10 followers (strong out of the gate, but not much action lately)

Boomer Shooter - 8 followers (late entry coming on strong)

AOW Science – 5 followers

SFX_PALLIDIAN – 4 followers

Assassin10K – 1 follower

There is plenty of time for you to get into the game, so start Pimpin' now! Remember, the only way you can get credit for a referral is if that person posts something like “Sent to you by <username>”.

And to help motivate you in your quest to be the biggest 2old2play Twitter Pimp out there, here is a pic of my personal collection of Gears of War Comics (note the nice bling to the left). Issues # 5 & 6 have yet to be released, so the winner will have to wait for these to come out to claim their prize.
