Post Win Icemat Siberia In:Ear Headsets!



The extremely nice people over at Icemat.com have kindly offered us TWO sets of Icemat Siberia In:Ear Headsets to give away to our lucky members.

Information about the headphones can be found > HERE <

Icemat Siberia In:Ear Headset consists of in-ear earphones and a unidirectional microphone.

The headset is specifically designed for a multitude of uses including MP3-players, laptops, the Sony PSP and other consoles (sound isolation allows for low volume settings) as well as IP-telephony (separate microphone).


So how can you bag yourself one of these nice prizes? After much deliberaton we decided that we would give you two very easy chances of being successful.

Chance #1

Simply reply to this thread stating why you should win an Icemat Siberia In:Ear Headset. Easy huh?

Make us feel sorry for you or make us laugh to get noticed. Maybe you have NHQ tatooed on your chest, that will surely get some bonus points

You must have more than 50 posts on the forum to have a valid entry.

You have until the end of Sunday 12 November 2006 to submit your post.

NHQ admin will decide the winner, and our decision is final.


Chance #2

We thought we would give the hard working mappers out there an extra chance to win.

All map makers who submit a map to the site from today (including the creators of the maps approved today) until the end of Sunday 12 Novemeber 2006 will be eligible to win an Icemat Siberia In:Ear Headset.

One map maker will be chosen at random to win and will be the owner of a brand new Icemat Siberia In:Ear Headset.

Best of luck to all

Thanks once again to http://www.icemat.com/

Firstly, believe it or not, I get nothing for Christmas or my birthday, or any other special occasions.
No fireworks, no prostitutes, nothing.

Secondly, I sit on this PC everyday... thinking WTF am I here?!

Thirdly, same old games, same old sites, same old crap...

Foruthly, I don't have a high spec PC like the other 95% of yous... I just put up with heaps of crap at school today, and my ''girl'' is turning into a sl*t Imao... after reasonable amounts of me and my friend flirting after school!

Fifthly, I go back home, only to realize what the hell am I doing?

Sixthly, I don't have headphones. I'd love to have one. That way I can get the sounds in my ears and make what's around me ''realer''.

Seventhly, I try and do a lot of hard work to get me busy like doing maps for BHD and participating in projects such as the BHD Wiki, etc.

And lastly, I feel like a speck of dirt sometimes...

every now and then, i get on teamspeak, or my xbox, and send voice messages to other people, i replay my voice message to myself thinking, hey i sound like a douche. i dont sound as cool as other people on microphones, but no matter how many times i try to resay my message trying not to make a loser of myself, i just have to give up, my poor win95 mic (for teamspeak), and my one peice cheapo xbox headset make me sound like a ******, and im not very happy with myself. My SOCOM headset from my ps2 is kinda messed up (from what ppl tell me on teamspeak) and that i sound sorta like a robot. not only that but i have a sound problem with the mics i have, i tinker for hours trying to make my voice loud enough to be heard in the first place, and when i do talk loud enough to break through the threshold, thats when i sound like a real douchebag, i cant use the mic i got. i think other people hate me online, im a loser. i cant help but to think what other people's lives are like with their supertastic puters, and their cooltacular headsets. im 14 and never dated, my only gf is my hand and i cant help but to think that its gonna be the only thing that i can ever penetrate for a long time. heck, most of all i wanna focus on making my voice heard well, and with clarity, most of all, not sound like a douche.

well, where will i begin?

bout a year ago i forgot to take the headset off my head (we all do it dont we??.. lol) but it was the last time that 1 of the cables was going to hold on, now ive got a dodgey headset that has a loose wire, so if i move my head too much it disconnects and reconnects from the pc, causing any application that uses sound to crash (pain in the fookin arse tbh..)

its been sellotaped, glued and a few other things.., i dont have the money to get a new 1, and definatly wont 4 the next oh, say 2 years.. (sum of u kno y)

so.. theres my post.. please rid me of these b...tard headphones

Honestly I should win the headset. I have a host of reasons but here is the primary one.

Two nights ago my sister in law visited and was in the kitchen with my wife. They were sharing a cup of coffee while I was in a server gaming. I was also on Ventrilo. This is hard enough due to desktop speakers replaying what I say on my desktop microphone.

Unbeknownst to me, my two years old niece ahd come into the room behind me as I tore into a few players online. I was doing my usual trash talk and received a reply from a friend of mine in response to a very lucky headshot.

He replied "Hey Douche Canoe! Turn off your aimbot" I inquired as to this canoe type I had not yet heard of. He politely explained that a Douche Canoe was a larger industrial size version of douchebag.

Moments later I recieved a plastic cup off of the top of my head (thrown at full speed I might add). I turned to inquire why and was met with a verbal barrage from both the wife and her sister. Something about my darling little niece asking mommy what a "Douche Canoe" was. Hehe.

If I don't get these headphones my gaming career could be in dire straights. Help Me Nova-HQ!
