From an outsider's perspective, I can only say that when I tried to find out what this challenge was all about or what was Xdb1, I got a zillion hits on Google about the fact that someone had won the challenge and wasn't being paid by the guys of Xdb1 for it.
Very very good publicity for the guys of Xdb1... A very well invested 1000$ ! Respect you promise and pay the guy unles you want to continue this "free publicity" campaign... And I don't think that's the kind of publicity you want... Received on Sat Jun 05 2004 - 17:00:01 CEST
