Thank you for the effort and coordination in getting this done.
I'm fairly sure I submitted my prize preference already. Not sure if it registered though.

I echo the sentiments of others. Big thanks to all who helped organize and track the event and all the donors as well. I've been folding for a while on and off, but first time participating in (and knowing about) the TZC. Looking forward to it next year. Hopefully next year I can get a few other of my idle machines to aid in the cause.

Thanks for organizing folks, great excuse to break out a record month, and push out those WUs for science! I'm really happy to be a part of EVGA's F@H program, and community events like this, to promote folding, and help get more people involved!

Thank you to all the vets that were willing to help out the noobs.
It really makes a person feel welcome when they are worried about being a bother and yet you guys were non-stop warm and helpful.
I appreciate it. I will do my best to pay it back or forward.
Use my Associate Code to grab a considerable discount! Use my Rewards Code to show me your support! Both while helping me transform my Antikythera mechanism into a beginners Folding rig ;)

The PSU is relatively heavy, and I'm guessing the teapot isn't. UPS (or whoever) usually have weigh points all along the transit so they can tell when something like this happens from the weight change, although EVGA will have to set up the inquiry since they shipped it. This is the second one I'm hearing of here on EVGA just recently - the other was replaced with bottles of water.

Already contacted UPS for the claim. Already Notified EVGA Manager who I was working with directly for my 2060 fiasco sense the website wouldn't let me post my RMA. But, Now I am back to square one. Now I am out of the $289.99 I paid for.. for the cross-ship. Now I have to deal with UPS. Now I also have to deal with most likely another 2 weeks to cross-ship me another.. so I HAVE to buy another one which yeah good luck to me sense trying to find a 1300W PSU is like pulling my own teeth out.

so many prizes, I know I screwed up on at least one of them :)
if only we had Punchy's Prize Picker 
Sorry folks, I let you down this year, but I'll be ready next time. It was just terrible timing for me this year, working on a product release the week before Christmas, then catching up (barely) on Christmas preparations. I wouldn't even have known about the contest if notfordman hadn't PM'd me. By the time I was ready to get the prize picker set up, Troy already had one set up. Thank you big D, troy, and notfordman for all your work on this one, and thanks to all the donors and participants!
