Surprised this thread isn't stickied yet.

On a side note, it looks to me that the winners from day 5 haven't been announced yet. Anyone else notice that?

You already got your motherboard. The 1080Ti is mine!



I checked and nothing says I can't win more Would be nice to get that 1080ti to upgrade the 1080 in the intel rig. Then I can move the 1080 to the third comp I guess I am putting together from the other board.

Trying right now to cajole my friend into letting me "test" a Ryzen 5 out this time instead of the 7 he previously gave me.

Day 5 is probably the single day everyone is thread watching like vultures (unless some other group also awards a 1080 TI, or better yet a titan XP). Sadly there can be only ONE! (Trigger thunderbolts).

Is anyone else picking and choosing days from odd nagging feelings? I understand these are free items and there are no rules against multiple wins, assuming your fortunate. Some days seem to have a few unrelated items that I lack an excuse to use. As a result I find myself contest nitpicking.

I'm not sure why I question myself. My fortune is horrible anyway so I should just mark all entries and be thankful. If I win anything it will probably be day 20 and a $5 gift certificate to best buy.

....

so.

....

Who wants to accidentally slip my name into the day 5 Grand prize winners column? Any takers?

Just strange they havent posted the winners for day 5, 5.5, 6, or 6.5 yet despite doing so for all the previous days. Whether I win or not it was interesting to see if someone I know from these forums over the years has won as well.

I wonder if the winners are just not picked yet (e.g. to address possible issues with the email notifications going to spam for everyone) or they decided to hide the results period? Another thing nice about seeing who won was that if you saw your name and had not gotten an email you could investigate whether or not your spam filter had eaten the email.

Well originally the person that emailed me the notification talked back and forth with me that day as I had questions about the contest. I've sent the required documentation back to the same person and haven't heard word back. I sent him a few emails to verify if what I sent back was correct and no response yet. So combine that with the lack of winners being posted since I last won on day 4 and it's a bit odd. Especially with no more communication about why no more winners being announced or no response to email inquiries.

Usually, for gleam contests, you get a e-mail saying you entered.
This time around, for all of AT's contests, it isn't sending anything to confirm that you entered.
Really odd.

We're still here. With Cinco de Mayo, a lot of the staff is making it a long weekend. So everything is getting sorted out in due time.

Maybe there's an option to disable the email notifications on their end? It would make sense to disable it for a multi-day giveaway like this. I know I don't want to get a bunch of emails, and the Gleam embed does show confirmation of entry.

Turns out my email was set as an email I no longer have access to, I've tried contacting anybody I could. But have had no luck. So I'm sure the prize will be given to someone else, quite depressing.
Check your PM from me.

I think I won the 1080 ti, I simply haven't seen any email about it. Clearly this was a mistake on Anandtech's part and I await the inevitable pm that will hook me up with the goods.

Guess everyone working at anandtech drunk so much they passed out for the whole weekend from partying to much on Friday.

Where are the winners listed? I am sure i will get flamed but i do not see it and if it is in the comments that is an undertaking to hunt down.
