When are the winners of the giveaway going to be announced? According to the thread, it should have been announced during the WAN show. But I don't think it was. Anybody have an idea?

I fucking hate those people. They fucking never claim it. Linus should do a giveaway for those who have more than 500 posts and have been on the forum for more than 6 months. If that were to happen, definitely sign the fuck up.

It is a giveaway for the channel not for the forum. Its just hosted here so its easier to draw than sorting through YouTube comments

Well, maybe somebody can ask Linus if they can do a giveaway on here to do for us vet forum members. That would be nice. That way, we wouldn't have 1 post newbies winning but then not claiming the prize.

So you're saying that all the long-time fans of Linus shouldn't be able to win just because they haven't used the forums?  :huh:

IDK. Maybe there should be 2 competitions. One for all the subscribers, and then one for those longtime forum members.

What about those (such as myself) who are active members but mostly post in off-topic, therefore having the post not get counted?

I got sent to prison after following Linus' instructions to #Makebombs

Forum's resident nihilist.

A JRPG just wouldn't be a JRPG if it didn't end with teenagers using the power of friendship to kill God.
