Originally posted by Admin The contest drawing engine has been modified slightly for this contest. It will now have a list of prizes, and then when the list of winners is drawn it will randomly bind a prize to each winner. We don't want to make it "first person to claim gets the trip, second gets the video card, etc" because this creates a "race" scenario and we don't want one of our servers to hiccup and get blamed from someone not claiming in time So once you are bound to your prize you will have a full 24 relaxing hours to claim it before you lose it. After that we will re-draw for the spots that did not fill.

Was reading back thsi past news ( sorry to get it back on but it's today so i guess thats not that late lol). And will we know what we have win in the mail or only after clicking the link? I mean, if it's something i wouldn,t like, just for exemple a GC game because i doN,t have that console, will we know that our ticket is that price before we claim it?
If you win you will get an email with a link to claim. This message will also tell you the prize you have won. If you win a console game you could eBay it or give it to friends/family I guess

I did have a question about the trip. Whoever is lucky enough to win, do they get to choose when to go? I think my passport has expired an I need to get a renewal!

ok I won in the redraw, and have claimed the price. But have readed somewhere that I must come in for the charges for sending it outside the US. But nothing is posted in the mail how to do that. Please can someone help here or do I get another mail when it needs to be paid?

Sheer curiousity, if you win a prize when will you know if its been shipped or when you shall recieve it or anything along those lines?
Any news on when the shipping will happen? Or did I miss something?
