It gives me access to any Shaw server by routing through some different port or something. Not sure how it works, but its $18/month well spent.
I probably could have got a few cow tags this morning...maybe next time I'll start charging guys and helping them get tags....

For those who got a tag with plans on using them ethically, I wish you all the best.
For those who did not get tags, I feel bad for you and hope they change the system next year.
And for those of you you who grabbed more then one tag or got a tag without the intentions of actually going on the hunt, in my heart I honestly hope you never have a successful hunt again.

You're saying that you and your group got 6 of the tags out of the 50 available in the first season, and 3 of them are going to go unused?
I did get a tag for second season. And I'm pumped about that. But I'm disgusted in what happened in your group. And this BS about having better acess to Alberta Relm because of spending extra money, that's BS too.

Why would they apply for the tags then? On such a limited oppourtunity knowing full well that a bunch of fathers and sons would be trying to get tags, and they rob them of that opportunity?
I'd say what I hope happens to them, but it would just get me banned

I'd like to thank those whose hard work made this new hunting opportunity happen. Next year, I'm confident it will be handled with more notice, and hopefully - as a draw.

Good luck for those that scored this morning. I lost out. After a sugar fit last night and an adrenalin rush online this morning, I can see why many are having difficulty with this process.

Just funning you guys. I wanted to go, but I wasn't 100% sure that time would allow. So I didn't even try.
For the record
-No one from our group applied
-there is no "special server"
- my brother does not work at shaw
Good luck to all those drawn, please take loads of pics and many thanks to those that organized this great opportunity.
Thanks for the fun guys, no hard feelings.

It's no wonder they didn't do this first-come first-serve in person. The kind of ridiculous responses, anger, and frustration is just too funny. Would have been entertaining as hell though!!! This is cheap entertainment though!
Relax guys....breathe deep.

Hey rack...
Was it due to your "special server" that you had all those front row Justin Bieber tickets?
I was ok till you started screaming like a little girl.
Next time I pick the concert.

If this is what the sponsors are throwing in peoples faces, its no wonder that this message board is getting old quick. Some people take this thing seriously and you just like to rub salt in their wounds. Why dont you just not post if all you do is rev people up and think its so funny?

Just wait till tonight and someone doesn't read the whole thread.
I hate trolls, but this one was just tee'd up so pretty. Had to knock it out of the park.
Once again, sorry guys. I won't do anything like this again ( till next time)

Thanks Mutter, I have been killing myself all morning.
Each stop I made in my car I would check the thread.
People were walking by watching me laugh my head off.
Good times, that's kinda what hunting is about.

I heard they made a new first-come first-serve December sheep hunt. Everyone who is interested is advised they need to send me $10 through Paypal and meet at Milo, AB at 0445hrs this Saturday morning.
Super easy!

I'll admit you got me and lured me out of just browsing these forums, but your special server is very technically possible due to the nature of traffic routing. If shaw was to sell you a vpn located in their shaw court data center you would technically be "closer" to albertarelm.com and have a way better chance at getting in. As is the people with the best chance were Calgary shaw customers in the downtown core.
