Yes, it draws the entire internet, those who do not care about, nor support the company. Literally every event in the last 10 years that Ive seen or participated in has a 99.9% chance its someone who fits the criteria I mentioned above. I know the odds of someone we know winning compared to the rest of the world is a massive difference, but its just sad. NEVER do they do a closed epic event, or even a b-stock event for its loyal members.

You are saying that LITERALLY every event in the last 10 years (which you haven't even been apart of eVGA for that long) has had 99.9% random winners that don't participate in eVGA?  Funny how I noticed 4 names that I recognize and play with this event.  Every event I always notice a few names that I know.  Sure there are plenty of people that I don't recognize, but this is a RANDOM contest that eVGA puts together for everyone.  If the event wasn't for everyone, then we wouldn't have nearly as much people filling the servers and having as much fun.
 
You are only hurting yourself by not entering any more events.  You go from having a chance to win to never having a chance.
 
You also have to remember that this is advertisement for eVGA and their partners that contribute prizes for the event.  Without them, there wouldn't be the great prizes we have.  Oh, and we have had small EGC events in the past for members.  The prizes were small since there weren't big company prizes, but still something.

MASSIVE difference in a person from here who is a productive member to the community to someone you recognize in the game. As I said, the ratio is skewed to show a massive imbalance between known and unknown members.
 
It doesnt matter if they have every company known to man giving a prize in the packages, it has RARELY )and id say 10% of the time max) has gone to a community member or a person who actually knows of the companies / supports them.
 
EVGA could EASILY do a closed competition for members who fit criteria such as "1 registered product or more" and start giving away B-stock stuff, or literally anything to show appreciation to the people who made them what they are which is the #1 Brand for most folks. Yes, Im salty just like all those who put in effort and ALWAYS see stuff go away from here and just get e-bayed for $$ lol.

I guess you totally missed the whole point of this being a form of ADVERTISEMENT for the companies.  Why do you think companies do random contests like this?  Just to give away free stuff and lose money? NO, these are companies with money on the mind and not just to be nice to random people.
 
Yes it does matter if they don't have companies help contributing prizes in the packages, because then we wouldn't even be having these contests lol.  Do you think these prizes just pop out of thin air?  We have had eVGA EGC gaming nights in the past (if you were a "productive member" of the EGC community you would have known about them) and without the sponsors, the prizes are MUCH smaller.
 
I love how you keep pulling these random percentages out of thin air.  I saw 4 names I know this event (over 20%) and see names I know every event.  Just because you don't know a person, doesn't mean they aren't a "productive member"
 
To me, this just looks like someone who is mad at not winning free stuff and just wants a better chance at it.  I always find it funny when people complain about not winning things for free.  I am an eVGA EGC admin and I have ZERO chance at ever winning a prize from the contests.  Do you see me complaining every time I don't win?  No, in fact I put in 65 hours into the servers this event.  Why?  Because I have fun playing with people from this community.  There is more to life than just getting free stuff.  These events let you play and have fun with the community while ALSO giving you a chance to win something.

Yes Id love to see the THOUSANDS and THOUSANDS of Dollars Ive spent on EVGA Products to relate to a thanks, an entry into an exclusive event with others like me who have shown their support and dedication to the company......
 
As I said, just because you see someone in the game who you recognize or that is in the game servers often does NOT make them a productive member of the EVGA community... The EGC community died awhile ago. Too many people with power trips, lack of actual and legit admining going on, pings from every place on earth effecting game play etc. I could go on, but because you see a person in the servers often it makes them a productive member to EVGA....
 
See, your only giddy about these contents because of what you and other EGC Admins who cant enter the contests get and ya know Id be alright with that also. Your being shown appreciation by dedicating your time to the servers, while though who dedicate chunks of yearly salary into products just get what they paid for....
 
You can say anything that you want to say man, a MASSIVE chunk of the EVGA community knows exactly how the events work and that the chance of one of the members winning is VERY remote. You can try to sugar coat it or twist my words how youd like, but we all know and have shown our disgust by allowing the game servers to be dead.

So just because you bought stuff from eVGA, they owe you something now? I too have spent THOUSANDS and THOUSANDS and never thought, hey, they owe me something now.  And you know why?  Because I paid for an item I wanted and got it.  Do you think this for every company that you buy products from lol?
 
And like I said, just because YOU don't recognize someone doesn't mean they aren't "productive members" of the EVGA community.  Heck, I don't know you, but I wouldn't call you a non productive member, that would just be mean.
 
Lack of admining going on?  There were PLENTY of kicks and bans this last event.  And who was having power trips?
 
Too bad we don't have more "productive members" of EGC like you

And like I have said before, eVGA HAS done gaming nights just for EGC (if you were a "productive member" of EGC you would know this).  But since the prizes are usually small like T-shirts (since there are no partners contributing prizes) and not expensive computer parts, I guess you missed them.

I will ask again.  Do you expect every company you buy products from to hold contests/events and give away free prizes? Why do you believe that eVGA owes it's customers exclusive giveaways?  Why doesn't every company hold these events?  Oh yeah, that's right, they don't owe you anything.  I will say it again since you can't seem to grasp it, these events are a form of ADVERTISEMENT.  Oh and EGC = EVGA gaming community that is ran BY EVGA.  EGC events are done and prizes given BY EVGA.  That is why I brought them up, a different way with much better chances for people to win prizes FROM EVGA (which is what you wanted).  Oh, and why is a T-shirt or mouse pad not showing appreciation and yet SSDs are?  Is there a certain MSRP at which shows you appreciation?
 
I never said that you said that you deserve to win (stop twisting words around like you would say).  I also never said that you said they should be banned, not sure why you brought that up (although constantly kicking for ping is basically being banned since you can't play in the server).  You did say in game that I kicked players for high ping this last event which I never did.  You said you had proof that I did, so I asked for it but still have never seen this "proof".  The higher ups have been told about this problem before, they know about it and is the reason why we can at least kick for pings that timed out.  And the #1 complaint in game servers is people hacking; sooooooooooooo many hackusations.
 
So again, you can always NOT enter in these FREE giveaways and have ZERO chance of ever winning.  No one is making you sign up for these.
