Do you get anything else? A free chip at least or will you have to buy one as a souvenir?

Are they asking for an interview?

How did they contact you?

Tell us the whole story please?

Wow, that's a lot of questions. I have been told that I will get a chip mounted on something so that I can hang it on the wall. They also said that they will want some video of pictures when I am presented with the chip, but that's it as of right now.

I got an email on Tuesday evening, which we didn't really believe. But then someone from Marden-Kane called, saying that they had been reading posted on this website and the email is real. Finally, after I sent back some paperwork, I talked to a guy from AMD, who asked for a few ideas. He did say that it would probably take a few weeks before the chips are started. Well that's all I know right now.

So they are watching this site.

Maybe "they" could give us an idea when the other winners will be notified?

Very exciting, Autter! Congrats! Keep us updated on the news coverage/pics/etc... I'm sure we'd all like to chronicle the ending to that part of VPG. :)

Congrats again, and wonderful job!

Yes, congrats Autter211, and our apologies. You're husband's emails earlier this week seemed, well, like maybe a prank, especially after 42Entertainment went through the trouble of adding clue after clue after clue, even after you won on Sunday.

Speaking of which, how did you come up with Ivy on Sunday? Did you actually find Hardee, MS and translate to Latin, or did you guess at some other clue?

      The auto industry really needs to update it's terminology so a software update isn't called a recall.

      Anybody that thinks flying cars were possible are idiots. Everyone would basically need a pilot licence, can you imagine how insane and dangerous that would be, people can barely handle driving on land safely right now.
