In the intro to the ebook, Seth talks about changing the goal from collecting to one of giving. Rather than focusing your efforts on ensuring that you get your fair share. Try giving more than your share... you'll find that you'll receive far more in return than your share cost you.

This type of thinking is well known to us.  It is what makes AUGI such a unique community. I know many contributors in the AUGI community that have always embraced this concept and demonstrated it through action.  Thanks to all of them! 

The Top Ten finalists at the end of round one were (in order from 1 to 10) Cory Honeyman, Timothy Vaughan, Shauna Anderson, Richard Lawrence, Claude Godin, Jim Swain, Chris Groves, Paul Kirill, Kevin Hawkins and Jeanne Aarhus. These finalists were invited back to the AUGI Booth for the live final competition.  Seven returned for the shoot out.

Each finalist was asked to draw specific designs inside of AutoCAD 2010.  They then queried the design to answer a question that was posed.  There were 15 question possible within a time limit of 15 minutes.  Just one minute, on average, to draw and then answer the question. 

The Top DAUG 2009 Winner is Timothy Vaughan.  He got 6 answers correct out of 15.  On his heals was Richard Lawrence with the same amount correct but 4 seconds behind the front runner.  Third place and beyond went to Chris Groves, Claude Godin, Jim Swain, Kevin Hawkins and Shauna Anderson.

The winner received an HP Mini notebook computer courtesy of HP, presented by Stephanie Ellis of HP.  He also will receive a FREE PASS to Autodesk University 2010.

The Top Ten Finalists from Round One will receive a one month subscription to CADLearning.com
