Because so many people had great "why I should win a copy of Discount Armageddon" answers, and because I am still sick, I gave up on being arbitrary and leaned on the random number generator instead. Our winners are...
But because I did say I was going to be arbitrary, and because I found a few extra ARCs in my mailbox yesterday, I am also going to send a copy to...
Because New Zealand needs cryptids.
If you're one of our winners, please send me your mailing address via my website contact form within the next twenty-four hours. If I don't have your contact info by then, I'll choose a new winner. (
For everybody else: what kind of giveaway should we do next? LOLcryptids? Poetry? Art? Cookies? The sky's the limit, and I want to know what you think.
And now I'm gonna go lie down.

But the one AFTER that, a contest where we offer our own captions to some LOLcryptids could be fun. :)

Saw this post on my friends list today, and had to look twice to realize it was neither by you, nor by any of our mutual acquaintances. Firefly and My Little Pony mash up: http://mandydax.livejournal.com/372

I just wish they were better at scaring my cat so she would stop chasing the poor wee things.

It helps to know that they're not poisonous and they can't sting, the worst they can do is bite you and even that doesn't actually hurt.
There's a really cute picture out there of one of the rarer giant weta eating a carrot on a guy's hand.

The exceptions in New Zealand being the katipo spider (which is rare) and the kea (which is a parrot and not poisonous but is fearfully bright and prone to destroying things to see how they work...things up to and including automobiles,tv aerials and lambs)
