I must say, when I made my one rule of saying that the 2000th commenter's blog name couldn't contain the letters C, A, T, or E, I kind of thought that was ruling most people out, and that the 2000th commenter would probably be ruled ineligible. There, I said it.

The contest was not without some rules-related drama, as the omarphillips.net legal team did have to do some research on the winner due to a recent blog name change. However, it was determined that the winner did in fact change names prior to the announcement of the contest.

The winner, as I mentioned in a previous comment, is our favorite Californian by way of Idaho, Glo. Congrats, Glo. I can only imagine how emotional this moment must be for you, and how proud you must be. There will only ever be one 2000th commenter on omarphillips.net, and it is you. Nobody can ever take that away (except for me, because I can delete/reorder any comment I want).

As for your prize for winning the contest... um... I'm a little embarrassed to say that I haven't yet completed it. So it will remain a mystery until I do. When it is revealed, I would like to warn you that the entire internet will end up being insanely jealous of you. It's the price of victory.

To all that commented but didn't win, thanks for playing. Know that even though you lost, you're all winners. If I had the money, I'd get you all one of these Pong wall clocks. But I don't, so you'll just have to take my word for it.
