I just won a Wii from Red Baron Pizza (www.redbaronpromotions.com) on my first try. This brings my win count to two, as I won a Flip Video Camera from facebook a little over a year ago. My roommate won an iPhone last year in a contest from somewhere I forgot.

so, have you ever won anything?

I'd better not come across you in the street with your shirt on someday

Otherwise I used to win all the time at school/sports club lotteries as a kid.
I might be going to Vegas soon, time to bring my old luck back!

In fourth grade I won like $500 when some picture i drew got picked randomly in some contest. What did I get with it? A hamster and a trip to universal studios/disney world. Oh and some stupid plaque. And I met a local newscaster (which, when I was a kid was kinda a big deal to me I guess).

Come to think of it, it's stupid that I used the rest of the money to go to disney world/universal studios. My parents probably took it as a way to go on vacation at a discount, and they probably would have taken me even if I didn't win any contest. Oh well.

On second thought it may have been more money so that it paid for the trip and whatever was left over went in my college fund. It was at max. $1,000 dollars. Can't remember the exact amount.

I did #2 at an regional history contest about Shoah in junior high school. I got a free trip ( one week ) in Eastern Europe ( Poland and Hungary ) with the 9 others first people. It was quite cool and we visited different places, some regarding the subject of the contest ( like Auswitchz and Warsaw ) and also several touristic places, ( a salt mine, Balaton lake, Kraków, ... )

Also two nights at the Hilton in Budapest is sooooooo cool.

I've won crap. I won like some $25 ginger bread man house when I was about 11. I won a cooler and a thermos from some stupid batman contest when I was about 12.

Yeah I've pretty much only won garbage...
Not bad for a cat toy.

I randomly won a Wii about a year and a half ago as well. I was checking out the game "Marvel: Ultimate Alliance" on their website, and you had to sign up to get into some part of the site. Well -- Turns out, when you sign up you get thrown into a Wii drawing, and I happened to randomly win. Was pretty awesome. Other than that I've not won anything worthwhile 'randomly'. I did win a couple of computers from Blizzcon 05 and 07 though, from the costume contests (Marine and Ghost). I don't really consider those 'random' though, considering I earned them.

I don't think that getting a lottery prize/promo reward could be considered winning.

As for what I've won, well, all small events, one SC LAN, one programming contest, several local guitar contests, some school contests at math and languages, that should be it.

Oh yeah, and a diploma paper contest at university. I got Casio watch with engraving and a huge red diploma.

I think the only lottery I've ever won that's worth mentioning is the CJ shirt. Anything else seems to be too insignificant to recall. Lotteries are a bitch lol.

Only time I've won at lans are small ones that are against pretty mediocre players so nothing to boast about really I guess, I just happened to win cuz I spend way too much time following games. Over a span of probably 5 lans total in the past 10 years I've got $200 cash total 2xrazer mouse, cd binder, random headphones, a 24inch widescreen lcd which is probably the best thing I ever won but I gave it to my cousin for his birthday.

I usually don't win at those lottery things. The only things i can remember i won are a 5€ coupon for icecream and a backback. The backback was won at a gamesports starcraft stream, where you could vote for which team is winning. Only 2 or 3 people registered and took place and i was the only one right, so i won

I won my first personal computer in a contest through the newspaper. Every week the paper would post a question related to geography or world events and kids around the city would submit their answers. After 2-3 months they took the names of the kids who got all the answers and held a lottery drawing and I won! I also got my name and picture in the newspaper! What's funny is my geography teacher told us the questions were for homework and never mentioned the contest or prizes at all.

The specs of the pc I won? Pentium 75 and I think 4/8 megs of ram. Aaah the good old days It's with this machine I actually got my start with Starcraft. I believe I JUST met the minimum requirements to play Lucky me!

I've won 3 DVD player in three separate contests. Apparently I have luck specially oriented towards winning them...

Also when I was in 5th grade we had a walk-a-thon at our school which I won, they gave me a bike.
