SuperRob Posted February 2, 2007 Share Posted February 2, 2007 Well, no phone calls or e-mails for me, although I did get a call from a telemarketing chiropractor that got my hopes all up. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Voice777 Posted February 2, 2007 Share Posted February 2, 2007 Why do you say that? Thats the number for the controllers that call you from Marden_Kane. It will come up blocked on the notification call though then for future contact they have with you afterwards, IE paperwork, faxes, waivers etc, it will be unblocked. I have dealt with them on numerous occasions for my wins on Treasure Hunter and 2 wins on Gold Rush Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

akitakoi Posted February 2, 2007 Share Posted February 2, 2007 I found this little nugget, so today is the day or "about" the day! :blink: Prizes will be awarded on or about February 2, 2007 after the January 30, 2007 deadline for earning points, and the grand prize winner will be publicly announced a couple of weeks later. Once the final points are calculated, a random drawing will determine who the prize winners are, and which prizes they will receive. For complete details click here.

matthewlefflercomputer Posted February 2, 2007 Share Posted February 2, 2007 (edited) I found this little nugget, so today is the day or "about" the day! :blink: . . . Edit: nv, found in the FAQ So, what does awarded mean? Does that mean receipt of prizes or allotment of the prizes?

sickboy932 Posted February 2, 2007 Share Posted February 2, 2007 Autter, I was one of the folks that didn't believe Brilo - so sorry about that and congrats. One one question. Brilo said you entered your answer on Sunday. How did you arrive at that one Sunday? We didn't even really figure out the Hardee location until Monday. Did you "luck" into the Ivy answer on Sunday? Brilo said you guys wern't sure, so he entered Ida and you entered Ivy. Thanks in advance for you answers. sickboy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gdesignr Posted February 2, 2007 Share Posted February 2, 2007 autter211, I was thinking about your prize, and if I were you I'd buy the domain name for your name (YOURNAMEHERE.com) and host a little site about the prize. You could even link off to your favorite sites (cough cough... neowin) and have ads. If you are in the web business at all that would be useful for you to promote stuff. Then when you get to put your name on the chip, just have them put a ".com" at the end. That will drive some traffic to your site. You can also post about your site here and elsewhere... maybe even do a press release about your winning. They say the prize has no cash value, but you could work it into some money or at least fame for a bit. Enjoy, and congrats! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Modo100 Posted February 2, 2007 Share Posted February 2, 2007 Beware of a fake email notification. I just recieved an email subject: MS PRIZE AWARD NOTIFICATION from: AWARD DEPARTMENT MICROSOFT CORPORATION WORLD LOTTERY Bogus of course, but interesting timing.
