First off, I’d just like to thank each and every one of you who participated in this contest. When I started this site a little over six months ago, I don’t think I would have anticipated it growing as much as it has in the short time it’s been around.

I’d like to thank all my friends who followed me here from 1up.com, some of whom just to read and comment, some of whom ended up joining on and writing for CFD! as well. I’d like to thank everyone who referred a friend to us, RT’ed a tweet or reposted a story on Facebook. I’d like to thank every random, anonymous person who found us via a Google search or link on another site and actually came back to visit us a second or third time of their own accord.

I’d buy each and every one of you a game if I could. But, sadly, I’m not made of money. That will not, however, stop me from rewarding you guys for readership and loyalty whenever I can, which is why I wanted to run this contest in the first place. We hit a nice milestone at six months and I hope we have many more to come. Let’s see where we can go from here, okay? I’d love for you all to join me on the ride.

But enough touchy-feely emotional crap – you all want to know who won, right? That’s what I’m here to tell you.

We took all of your entries, calculated them up and then assigned a range of numbers to each contestant, based on the order they entered the contest. We then consulted the stars, cast the bones and divined the future in the entrails of a goat. When that failed to help us we drew a random number instead, thanks to the good folks at Random.org, and compared it to the chart. We probably should have thought of that a bit sooner, because now the gr3ml1n5 are playing in the goat blood and making rather a big mess of the place. But I digress…

Without further ado, the winner of the Crush! Frag! Destroy! Six Month Anniversary Free Game Giveaway is…

Molotov Cupcake

(*Cue applause, confetti, balloons falling from the rafters and other appropriate celebratory accoutrements*)

She wins a game of her choice, valued up to $60, courtesy of CFD! – congrats, Brit!

For the rest of you, don’t despair – we have some other stuff planned for the near future. Maybe not as big as a $60 game (at least, not right away), but we want to start giving away some smaller prizes on a more regular basis, so keep reading CFD! and we’ll do our best to keep entertaining you.

Thanks again, everyone!
