There are three days left for you to code, well in fact 2,5 days. If you want to parcipate… now or never 🙂 2,5 days is still enough for a not too crappy fun shooter 🙂 Remember that every decent submission is already a winner and will get at least a T-Shirt 🙂http://www.pdroms.de/pdrc3-rules.php

I usually don’t use PDRoms talking about questionable companies, but sometimes even a limit can break. I became an affilate of the Easybuy2000 seller program in 2002, which is a while ago by now.I used their affilate program for a few days, had lots of clicktroughs but no sale, which was very strange. I heared from other webmasters that the same happend to them… anyway…A few months ago they start to send”Affilate-Newsletters”. I signed off from their newsletter twice, but still got their”Newsletter”. After a written complaint via email and calling them directly via phone and complaining about the”Newsletter”, the person I talked to excused for the troubles and promised me to pull me of from this”Newsletter”. Obviously the guys at Easybuy2000 are not in the position to manage that… I got another mail. Well done, thumb up!If you recently checked the Emuholic board various webmasters also complained about beeing cheated for their affilation-money… just a friendly warning… think twice if you want to buy from such a company and support them…
