Did I miss the entry?

I've been trying to log in for over 30 minutes, but the forum would not load, it's only just loaded but is very very slow.

I had this noted down for ages to be logged in here at the correct time only to be denied, now I won't have an entry in the competition due to a server error? If so I will be very very disappointed.

You will still be entered into the first prize draw, but not the runner up prizes

The server was too loaded. This was the whole intention of this competition, to gather as many people online at the same time and stress test the server to see if it holds or crashes... Seems that it barely survived though.

 

[MrWolfieHD]

I could not log in either

Okay thank you for the reassurance, I'm not expecting to win at all, just the thought is nice and to help this place get active for this day


The forum seems to be running okay now.

Well you are still in for the first prize so...look forward to that

 

[Permafrost]

I can't remember if Tom said he was taking the screenie at 8 or just before coz if it's 8 i'm in if not i'm not as i was at the gym. That said. All's fair in love and war... and free stuff! so i'm happy with my entry to the main comp. Good luck all!

well, if you weren't logged in, you weren't entered, I believe it's as simple as that, apart from 1st place according to above posters. Personally I'd like the Aria Voucher, got enough PCs as it is.

I logged in yesterday and been on ever since FTW!!!!

 

[Permafrost]

i just wanted to know if a have a fair chance

Okay that would be very disappointing and sad if that's the case. Many of us could not log in due to a server error with the load, trying for over 30 minutes, if we was not entered for them all due to an issue with the server then it was hardly a fair competition for all those like me who waited and took the time out to be here, only to be denied for ages due to no fault of our own.

It would be nice to know when the shot was taking to know if this all went fairly, as many guys took time out to be here only to be denied access to the forum due to server error (3000-4000 odd people is not that many in today's world)

I logged in ok about 7.30 but was somehow logged out some time after while trying to load another page and that was that. Seems there were just too many people trying to log in. C'est la vie.

Me too, i wanted aria voucher to get some corsair stuff for me and my friend. I set up a calendar event in my android calendar but this fking android shit didnt ring, vibreate or anything at all [just showed a calnedar icon in notification bar] so i was 15 min late. well . . probably more because there is no fking log in button on the main page so i had to search for forums and then log in x_x


aww i so hoped to get corsair keyboard x_X

I had over 10 friends enter the competion, most had the same problems and are very angry, in-fact quite a few angry folk around. 2 luckily where logged in at the time, despite the server issue's (Theres many free forums with far more members and activity than there was yesterday without problems)

Entered a competition only to be unfairly not entered, it's nothing to do with the winning it's the morales and fairness, which obviously was not a priority otherwise there would of been a wait untill the server issue's had gone and everyone who entered and was here who could not log in due to the eroror could log in fairly. As it stands many of us took our personal time out to be here only to be unfairly denied access to entry of the competiton, this feels like being used and many won't be returning here again because of this.

Look dude, you were given the chance to win FREE stuff but simply typing in a few things, unfortuanetely due to the amount of people online and constantly refreshing, posting etc the server was having some problems, there is nothing that could have been done about that. Also you were told that you could just log in at any time and just leave your self logged in.
