Just quickly folks, here's where we stand.

I have the following people confirmed that they do want their prizes, but still need additional details to be able to send it to them.
Rhyperior - Need full name and address (overseas winner)
yarrboots - Need a name for the shipping label, or Amazon won't ship it


The following members never replied to us regarding their prizes, and at this point we've had to assume their prizes forfeited and re-award them amongst the winners.
MachoMonferno005
Nomura
Marvel Girl
Draconium
Ravyn Foxfyre

In the case of Ravyn, who won in the fanfic contest, this will be re-awarded to another entrant in that. I'm currently waiting on a final judgment there for a new prize winner.
EDIT: The new winner is "The Pig King". They will be contacted shortly.

I have the following people as having confirmed that they do not wish to receive their prizes. These will be awarded to people from the 2nd chance draw thread.
Mitchman Is
Amadeus Windfall
Lethal Carnivine
MetaRobo
bell02+

Every other prizewinner has given me their details, and doesn't need to do anything else. We want to send these prizes out in one big batch if at all possible, so I ask that you please be patient with us, and contact me either on this thread or through PM's if you need more info.

Oh sweet. I was wondering what happened. Hoping it wasnt a scam and all.

You've got nothing to worry about there. =) If I have to send the prizes out piecemeal (which I probably will, if it's looking like I won't get everyone's addresses before I have to go back to Australia on the 10th), yours will be in the first batch.

Still haven't heard from most people on that list above. If I don't have messages from them by the time I land in Australia on the 12th (11th in the US), I'm just going to reassign everything and start mailing stuff out.

I'll be sending PM's to a bunch of 2nd chance draw entrants later. Please send me your addresses ASAP.
 
Archaic, how is it decided which prizes the second chance winners will receive?

I haven't seen a list of what was awarded in the second chance drawing and I'm curious about what prize I got.
 
2nd chance draw winners were

Deadpool
Rocket Girl
Trainer-c
Nekusagi
Pale Bones
Silverwynde

They've already been contacted regarding address details, and have gotten back to me. 2 people still need to send me extra minor details there, and have been contacted regarding those.

Prizes are not yet finalized, they will be when I've sent things out. Some people are going to be getting extra prizes randomly, due to 5 of the 6 people I initially listed still not sending me any confirmation whatsoever for their prize, despite both PM's and emails.

Only people who have already given me their full details to send out prizes in this first batch will have a chance at getting the extra prizes. What exactly those are, who got them, and what the 2nd chance draw people got, will all be posted up after they go out.

It goes without saying then that the 5 people listed above in the first post NEED to get back to me regarding the extra info I need (mainly people missing ZIP codes) ASAP.

I'll wait no longer than tomorrow morning my time for those. Everyone else is getting impatient folks! Please make it easier on me. ^^;;;

I'm currently waiting to be contacted by the following members regarding if they want to accept their prize or not. If I don't hear from them within the next week (and I'll send them an email sometime over the next few days in case they didn't get my PM on the forums), I'll assume their prizes forfeited and re-award them.

In the case of Ravyn, who won in the fanfic contest, this would be re-awarded to another entrant in that if it becomes necessary to. All the others, given the number we have here, will be spread between 2nd chance draw entrants and existing prize winners (simply so we don't have to go through more address issues) if we're forced to reaward them.

I have the following people as having confirmed that they do not wish to receive their prizes. These will be awarded to people from the 2nd chance draw thread.

I have the following people confirmed that they do want their prizes, but still need additional details (which would be either an address, or a shipping name to put with the address they've already given me) to be able to send it to them.

Wow! That's so great, Archaic. CONGRATULATIONS to all the PRIZE WINNERS in here so far!
 
Ah, thanks for the quick response. I'm looking forward to re-reading all the entries and was curious as to who else had made the top three.
 
Seems a little suss how about everyone who won except for one member is based in America...
 
Bulba prizes

Have they been sent out yet?

I won the second chance drawing and I'm wondering when I should expect mine.
 
We're literally in the process of doing that now. A number of people *still* have not given me their addresses, despite several reminders. At this point, I'm considering their prizes forfeit. Everyone who's at least provided me with partial details is still going to get their prizes, but I can't send them our until I have all the shipping details. I'll update the first post of this thread with exactly who shortly.

The long awaited first shipment of prizes has been sent out! We've used Amazon to make our prize purchases, so expect a package from them in the mail soon.

4 of our prize winners have not been sent their prizes yet. They are.
Rhyperior - Need full address details
yarrboots - Need a name for Amazon to ship it
The Pig King - Need full address details
==Dragonite== - Amazon couldn't send your prize to Malaysia, we'll make other arrangements

Additionally, PokemonTrainerLisa and nickstr won prizes which we can't send via Amazon. We'll be sending those out later via another merchant, when we send out prizes for some of the above winners.

We have also found that we might have a bit of prize money left over, due to lower than expected shipping costs. If we still have prize money left over after the final prizes have been sent out, we may send out additional prizes to winners as an apology for this whole process taking so long. We'll be a lot more organized next time we run a contest, you can be sure. ;)

The following is a summary of all the prizes sent out today. Please note that this is not the full list of prizes, only those actually shipped today.
