Hey everyone. Why is the video commercial contest is closed? The deadline was supposed to be 07/31/2017 at 11:59. I had to work during the weekend but asked to leave early and I have been working in it all night but now is not available. Hopefully is just a glitch... Please help

Hello,
I would also, like many other here, would like to know why the commercial contest is closed before the deadline. I wanted to make my submission today, the deadline is written to be until 07/31 at 23:59 PM PST time. Not cool at all, have been working on it for a reasonable amount of time. I really hope you do something to fix this!

Mine is still not up there but I'm guessing it's just going to take a while since the others didn't go up until now.

Same here but EVGA also helped me fix my entry link ( I accidently posted the youtube edit link ) but my video hasn't posted and it shows I entered on 7/28/2017, but with this being the last day, I'm sure they will be reviewing and posting a lot of last minute entries. At least I hope so

Yeah, my link has been changed now, I see, from what it originally was. I think this means it is fixed, though it still isn't on the event page. My fingers are crossed hoping I didn't get penalized for submitting it again under a different account when I thought my first attempt had glitched out. In hindsight, that was a dumb move on my part.

It will accept any youtube.com link. The only verification is to ensure that it includes youtube.com. I posted wrong link because I tried to use youtu.be link that the site gives you upon uploading.

yup he got it.. I was there making sure even youtube (who is notorius for adding 1 second to a video said 30 seconds once i saw that ( and after being up all night editing copy and pasted. but it was the link to the page where i would edit that video not the watch link.. so they very nicely just changed it from /edit =(bfohdjshdksjdh) made up to watch=aksjdfnsdkjfnsdk and it goes straight to my video

So I just finished my gaming and I was on the phone asking EVGA about why my vid hadn't been posted while finishing up my 35 hours.. At the end I asked "So is your gaming competition winners totally random, or do you check the server stats to make sure they actually played? because at least half a dozen times i've come into a left 4 dead server(the game i have most of my hours on and there's been someone who has used all the health kits, still at the very start and the bots are all at half health, or someone will just sit in the safe room and not do anything, so basically they are cheating the system(just moving the mouse a little before the server boots them"..He told me we have to report those players, which is unfortunate. I was raised not to be a "tattle tail/rat" call it what you want, but I'm conflicted because If one of those players one the top prize I'd feel cheated, and also I have moved the controller back and forth before just to use the restroom or something so I don't get kicked if I'm having a good round.
So I am wondering why EVGA can't check the server stats of the winners that randomly get the win and check to make sure they were playing, it would be easy to tell just make sure after 35 hours their kill/death ratio is within range (even CSGO which I am the worst in I have 4ish kills and like 20 deaths in my hour of play) after they confirm that, then post them as winner, rather than having players have to e-mail about people we don't know and probably don't even remember?
Anyway I'm sorry I had to vent about that I hate people who cheat, these gaming competitions have really helped me make some good steam friends who are cool and fun people, besides giving us a chance to win cool stuff.

The EVGA gaming admins do their best to remove the cheaters... yes, idle kick avoidance is cheating, and should be reported immediately. EVGA will not kick or ban without verifying that the user is actually cheating, so report them when you see them and EVGA can sort out the rest.

Players have been reported for cheesing the gaming event. Not the first and not the last, just record/screenshot the activity and report it to a admin on the forums here. know the best part of reporting? perma death ban on gaming events for cheesing. =p

Just finished up that scavenger event and I got to say that was brutal. I went through all the news and press releases and just about every link on the site. For a while I was stuck at 9 badges and I was worried that I wasn't going to find that last one, but then I went back and really looked at some pages and bam! There it was!
