<p>Holy Tunare, you'd think some folks wanted to win a free retail key or something! </p><p>Don't forget to enter once a day!</p>

[kreepr]

<p><span style="color: #ff0000;">Wait I missed that. We can enter ounce a day?Bah I have no clue how I missed that... /BOOGLE</span></p>

<p><cite>kreepr13 wrote:</cite></p><blockquote><p><span style="color: #ff0000;">Wait I missed that. We can enter ounce a day?</span></p></blockquote><p>Yes, and I was apparently unclear, so I made a note of that in the rules today.  Sorry.  At least I caught it on the first day!</p>

[Xdatinelia]

<p>Wow that's cool!  So entering once a day, does the previous day's entry give us 2 chances on the second day of the contest or do they start over each day?  It reads like they start over each day.</p>

Or at least that's how we've run similar ones in the past, so I guess Calthine will correct me if I'm wrong. <img src="/smilies/8a80c6485cd926be453217d59a84a888.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /></p>

<p>Update:  I appologize folks. There's been a communication snafu.  The 20 keys I received are not Retail keys, they are Digital Download keys which will not work until the 23rd.  The three Collector's Edition keys are good for the early access.  I'm terribly sorry for getting everyone all excited about the retail box keys <img src="/smilies/9d71f0541cff0a302a0309c5079e8dee.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /></p>
