Tweet your <span class="bold">Hard West</span> cowboy name & demon-slaying weapon!

Everybody wants to be the most badass cowboy in all the Wild West, don’t they? Now you’ve got your chance to prove that badassery… Or rather, that of your creative minds.

Get your typing fingers ready and tweet us your best Hard West-inspired hardened cowboy name and what they call their demon-slaying weapon of choice. Is it Malevolent Minnie, who wields the Mace of Mesmerizing Malice? Or maybe it’s Deadly Gonzales and his Cannibalizer, an endless-ammo shotgun, the power of which fades the more you use it?

cycyx: Any news on the result?
I really hope they will get so small amount of participants to rethink the whole idea of using 3rd party websites (without any options for their own forum) for their own contests.
Did they cancel this contest?
I can't believe I missed this contest...
Any updates on the status of this comp?

Anyone there?

Anyone?

...hello?
I don't really expect to win what with all the participants - but I'd still like to see who won. did it get lost in all the work surrounding the sales I wonder.

GOG.com:
Hi, guyz! People are trying to show their mustaches as polite and innocent as possible. But the truth is, that sounds echo of revolvers being loaded, demons tamed, whips splashing air and horses... Well, doing their thing. Take a break from playing Hard West - it's an awesome game, we know. We want news, sheriff!
After much deliberation and discussion, we’re thrilled to announce that together with the guys from Gambitious, we’ve chosen the winners of our #hardwestlife contest!

Well, the contest at least confirmed that I suck at naming things. I love that one had the similar concept as mine, but made it sound a whole lot better. :)
Congratulations to the winners.

It does seem as if the Twitter crew is quite different from the Forum dwellers. I recognise only one name, perhaps two, from the 22 winners.
And no honorable mentions?
Yay :D Thanks to GOG and Gambitious, this was an awesome contest! I can't wait to play Hard West !!!
Congrats to everyone!
