Nope.Looking forward for more giveaways, i just hope europe members are elegible!
However for our many international readers, I need to apologize. We’ve not been able to do international giveaways, and the 20th anniversary giveaway is no different. AnandTech/Purch is too big to do a clandestine giveaway, and that means we need to follow all of the relevant local laws on giveaways. And, as it turns out, there are a lot of countries out there who either dislike giveaways or require that someone in their country wins a giveaway in order for it to be offered there. As a result, we’re only able to open these giveaways to residents of the United States. I’m genuinely sorry we can’t offer anything outside of the United States, but I hope you can understand.
What's the deal with Day 14 and Day 14.5 requiring social media verification that I'm a real human. I don't have a social media account at facebook, twitter, or instagram. ..... If you want to verify whether or not I'm human, there are several other methods that don't require setting up unwanted accounts on third party sites to complete.
NP. Sorry about that. It's a configuration option in Gleam that we don't use, but we have to make sure to uncheck every time, apparently.This issue appears to have been rectified. Thank you to the responsible party.
I clearly do not speak as a representative of Anandtech, but I believe that they are verifying all the winners before releasing the names. They have the names of the winners of many of the earlier contests. Some were quick to post where some took some time. I would assume that if the winners haven't been posted yet, then they are having trouble contacting them. If the original winner doesn't respond in time and Anandtech draws a new winner, it could be you.I think they should make a point of announcing each winner. For us, it is exciting, win or lose. And people just like to know how something ends. For the vendors, it is another chance to interact with their audience in a positive way. Missed opportunity.

Well, that's upsetting. Good thing I left a disclaimmer about not being a representative for Anandtech. At least you got your prize. How did they know where to send it?They didn't verify me at all. I found out I won because I looked at my name in the list shown on the Gleam.io part on the site. That was when I went searching for the verification email that had ended up in my gmail spam folder. There were several of us all talking about it. BTW I received my prize at my door last week.

Optimistic outlook is that they went ahead and sent it because they already had the necessary information to send it and others are stalled because they don't have that information. Pessimistic outlook is a combination of technical, logistic, and/or scheduling (yes, I put it nicely) issues on the part of gleam.io or perhaps anandtech.
