    Re: hexus competitions

    Look, it's just maths. How many people entered ? 10k ? 20 ?
    I've been entering for many years and never won a bean. Get over it.
    Society's to blame,
    Or possibly Atari.

    Drink a bottle of Felix Felicis, a lucky potion however the side effects are giddiness, recklessness, and dangerous overconfidence.

    No, there no methods to winning, it all about chance or probability of winning. For example, if there are 20k of people entering the competition, the probability of you winning is 1 in 20,000 or 0.00005 chance of winning.

    At least this is slightly better chance than winning the lottery.

    Don't get me wrong, I'd love to win that 760, but I'd prefer £10 million quid

    Yeah, the winners have trainers. Reebok to be precise.
    They sneak into Heuxs HQ when David is doing the dishes, nick the prize and run.

    Remember, crime pays if you don't get caught kids!

    The winners all bought my book "How to win big at Hexus"

    Worth every penny, @ £39.95

    I was going to say, 'Why not both?!' but with £10mil you can spend anything you want.

    Re: hexus competitions

    its because there's 5 million* people entering them. and theres a 1/5000000 chance to win.

    the more prizes there are the easier it is to win, but the more prizes there are the more people enter in the first place because there's more stuff to win.

    just keep entering them and you'll win eventually**. that's why its a competition.


    *HEXUS will never tell us how many people enter that number is just a guess.

    ** eventually could mean in another 5 million competitions time.


    so ill just go back to entering all the competitions and sit back wearing Lost Planet t-shirt I won, playing my copies of Lost Planet, magika, king Arthur, deus ex I won, on my radeon 7770 that I won, whilst my CPU is being cooled by the cooler I also won.


    so theres no point anyone else entering, because I seem to win it all


    p.s. ive only won the lottery 4 times. out of the 7 ive entered.

    p.p.s. the £40 was spent on bacon.
