Rogue Cell Winners.. CHOSEN - winners listed!
« on: March 09, 2009, 02:38:24 AM »
OK guys...
We have gone through and selected the winners...
We had so many submissions so we decided to not only give away the 5 balls but we chose 7 "runner up" submissions and we are giving them one of the new Rogue T-shirts (you can view them at http://www.rotogear.com/p-62-rogue-cell-t-shirt.aspx)

If you weren't chosen, it wasn't necessarily because we didn't like your submission, we had ALOT of duplicates and the first person to put the idea up got the prize.

The winners are

BALL
   svstar34
   marsden74311
   jauggernaut
   alpjr2000
   dyno-joe

SHIRT
   bannachb
   monsterpike
   tonykcgee
   hiflush
   imbackinthegame
   demo40
   jodotto

Congratulations to the winners and thank you to everyone who submitted suggestions.  Stay tuned for further contests.

Thanks Matt,
This was definitely a great idea to have feedback from the bowling community. I will proudly wear my rogue shirt.

I'm glad all of you had fun submitting your ideas.  It was fun going through all of them and I think we really got some good ideas on what direction to take.

I WOULD LIKE TO SEE ALL THE WINNERS IDEAS AND LIKE TO KNOW IF THEY ARE GOOD FRIENDS OF THE PEOPLE WHO CHOSE WINNERS OR ARE ROTO GRIP STAFFERS.  I SAW A WHOLE LOT OF GREAT IDEAS FROM PEOPLE AND NOW THEY ARE NOT UP AT ALL TO SEE AND CHECK ON THEM.  JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE THIS WASN'T A WAY TO GIVE BALLS TO GOOD FRIENDS OR STAFFERS THAT COULDN'T GET THEM.  I AM NOT A SORE LOSER, SOMETHING JUST SEEMS A LITTLE OFF WITH THIS WHOLE THING.

I would be interested in seeing what was chosen as the ideas. There were a lot of entries and since the thread is gone we can't even go back and venture a guess.

If they (Roger and Matt) wanted to give balls to there friends, they would just do it. They would not have to run a rigged contest to do that..

NO other ball company has given away to us bowlers the amount of stuff Roto has. I along with allot of other people here greatly appreciate what Matt and Roger do and have done for the br.com community..

If they want to post the winners, they can but I don't think they have to prove anything to anyone at this point..

Sorry, but I feel your post questioning the validity of the contest is ridiculous..

If Roto wanted to give away free stuff to buddies, they wouldn't have a public contest.  Lose the conspiracy theories.  Many thanks to Roto for holding such a contest.  Remember they gave a bunch of shirts a few months ago.  Even with the poor economy, some companies still believe in improving morale.  Go Roto!

There were a ton of entries.  I'm sure we'd all like to know the ones that were chosen.

I have to agree with Jim on this one.


Come on, just because you did not win
does not mean that it was fixed. These
guys are giving away a lot and I doubt
they appreciate what is being said here.

Thanks for the CHANCE at winning a ball
or shirt. Most of us appreciate it.

The contest in itself is enough for me to look to Roto first next time Im buying a ball.  I might have to get one of the Rogue shirts regardless those are sic.

I believe they gave away shirts a few weeks ago in another contest.
This wasn't rigged and maybe even show the winners with a reason why?
Or not even reason why? Great contest and I thought about you guys all week.
Besides my Rogue ready to be picked up today. I didn't need a contest I just went out and bought one anyway.

I won a shirt and I am definately not a staffer nor
personal friend of anyone at Roto Grip.Also, I don't
know anyone on here more personally than what they post.

Thanks guys.  Im glad everyone had fun doing this.  Those of you that won the ball, it will be shipped the beginning of next week.  The shirts we had to order so it will be a few weeks on those.  

As for the threory that this was rigged, If I want to give a ball to someone I don't need to make up a contest to do it.  I went back through and looked at your names.  Like I posted It wasn't that your ideas weren't good.  Most of your names had been previously submitted.  

I can't post the names that were chosen because other ball companies do monitor this and we wouldn't want them to use the names we liked.  Thanks again guys and we'll see if we can't do something again in the future!

I didn't win a shirt or ball and still think this was a great idea. Roto Grip and its staff should be commended on providing a platform for the bowling community to have input on the name of their product.
