Win Gigabyte Z87 & Haswell CPU's

This is better than a soap opera by far!!!! hahahahaha :P

:rollinglaugh:

With a few divas :lol:

And to go with the what would I do if I win...

1st prize : I would replace my current Gigabyte Z77 board with it.

2nd prize : I would wait for the upcoming Case Labs S5 and build a sweet rig with the Sniper M5 in it.

3rd prize : It would be either like the first prize or the second prize option but with me buying the board ;)
 
what the hell is wrong with people here my 5 and 6 year old kids have more brains
its about taking part not the wining
id love to see someone who hasent got the money to buy parts for there rig win

makes me sick to see all this carry on I wouldent blame tom if this is the last comp he will do after all tom has a lot going on and yet he still makes time for things like this top bloke tom

Totally Agree with you mate!
 
I dont condone all the fuzz&whine, but having it go soon a month past giwaway closing without revealing the winners I dont think is a good thing for the forum.
To me, reading the terms and conditions, clearly all winners have been notified but for some good reason Tom and/or the winners has chosen not to come forward yet. (Maybe one or more them are away on holiday or something.....)
However I do believe Tom if he wanted the fuzz to stop would have come forward and told people the reason for the long wait....

Who says the winners haven't been notified yet? Tom could have notified them but not heard back from them all. If a winner doesn't respond usually what happens is another draw takes place for that prize until a responding winner is found.

Only when all winner's names have been collected would he then be able to post a finalised list of winners.
 
I did read it just gave a suggestion as to why there might be the wait. Would telling us help kill the fuzz? Not sure, might make more people start the whole "I want it because my computer is ancient" thing.
 
In the case of what I'd do with the prizes: 1st I'd finally get rid of my ugly blue MSI board in my all green acrylic case setup:

.

I have such bad memories of my acrylic case,i had a sunbeamtech uv one,the cabling is impossible to hide once you have over 4 drives (i had 7 in my pc when i had that case,wasn't any room to hide the cabling)
 
By that, the winners will be notified by 7 days, nothing saying their names will be published, so if You haven't been notified assume you haven't won :) now isn't that easy.
 
You know, any one of us could stop this. All it takes for someone to say "I won 1st/2nd/3rd prize, thanks for the comp. I assume others have been notified but just not wrote here yet"

To be honest, I do assume winners have been notified and just haven't said anything here, so let us all (minus the 3 lucky winners) just assume that it is done and wish everyone good luck for next time, if there is a next time after this messy shit.

I keep getting emails on this thread and hope to see it is a winner posting so I can congratulate but it's always some whiny -snip- moaning he didn't win then a shed loads of replies to that person, I don't want to un-sub because I genuinely want to congratulate winners when/if they do post and if I un-sub I'll probably forget about this thread in a few days.

Maybe Tom asked them to keep quiet until all three winners are confirmed because , for instance, someone hasn't responded yet.

Besides, he would still update the OP with the winners and probably make a post with them in it, as always.

Just unsubscribe from the thread if you hate the email spam and check daily. I really don't see the problem :p

Where does it say that the draw has happened? ;) It only says winners will be notified no later than 7 working days after the draw. Close of competition doesn't = draw.

Disclaimer: I have no idea if/when Tom has done/will do the draw. I have absolutely nothing to do with it, I'm just a lonely mod trying to keep the peace where I can.
