and Jon and Rob wouldn't be going if he hadn't asked about the legitimate randomness of the drawings.

Yea. Rob especially. Scion should be giving that guy cars with as many as he has bought and the miles he puts on. And Jon is just a stand up guy. Started Scikotics and does so much for the community. Both of them should have been among the first "randomly" picked winners.

I agree with this. Scion does so much stuff for everyone. So everyone needs to stop _____ing.

I don't want to sound _____y but i'm sure if you got picked you would not be _____ing. I am also friends with some of the corp exes and i was not expecting to get picked. Yeah its cool the people got picked. Scion was even nice enough to fill the spots where people declined. They didn't have to go back and fill those. They picked the 300 peeps. I get tired of hearing people _____. It seems like all some people care about it the free stuff. Its not about that.

I was in the Bounty Hunter thing that Scion put on over the summer. People _____ed that i got piced cause i was friends with Scion peeps. The corps had an outside company do all the picking of the videos and they had that fnal say. So maybe they had someone pick these also. Just my opnion.

Everyone needs to be happpy for who got picked.. cause i am!!

Sure i'm happy that they're going but its not random. You do sound _____y and its quite annoying. I'm sorry that everyone can't stand the joy that you and your club do but when looking at my club (scikotics) and seeing that we got MAYBE 10 people to your 50 its a little unfair. As happy as i am for the people that are going its clearly not fair and i don't care if its random or not. But if your going to pick people pick it evenly.

I'm not here to start a fight i just can't stand when people here don't appreciate the things that Scion does for them or at least tries to do. When i read on here people complaining it makes us sound like we are kids

If people keep complaining than Scion can just turn around an be like well ok lets not do any of this again.

Look at it this way.. the names are picked the people are already on their way down... leave it at that..

It's to late to change anything now. There is no point to continue on complaining now. I know it's unfair. I wish I was picked. I still can't believe that they will do something like that. but Scion did alot of stuff for us already by throwing some free events for us to go to. Does anyone think scion is going to read this post and going to say "sorry , here are some free tickets. ". LOL that's not going to happen. All we can do now is suck it up and wait for the next contest.

That's it, folks.

I've heard enough "Scion just spent a million bucks and gave free three day, two night 'high end' trips, to a special set of events they set up, but all I hear is people complaining that they gave the trips to the wrong people. Nothing about "Damn, that was nice of 'em, you don't get that from Honda!" just over and over complaints that they didn't spend their money the way forty-eleven different individuals think they should have.

When it's your money, you get to choose, as long as it's their money, they get to choose.

This thread went along quite well until it pretty much split between winners and whiners (And those who just enjoy stirring the pot). It ends now. If you really believe it needs to continue, write Scion. Their address is on their website.
