looking for the last badge and one of the place's that I have looked won't load the page up. I get this error URL /******/*****/***********/ cannot be served due to error 17 on the host www.evga.com. I have stared out the the right address. Could this page be the place where my last badge is hiding?
Wait, Knightviper, your from Scotland?
Yeah mate will that have anything to do with the one page not loading up?

Not in the least! But I just saw that and it's one place i'd love to visit. :D

I got them all! For me, the last three would have been very easy to find, but I refused to look where they were located. I saw the "Community" heading and figured there was no sense to look there because the community is the forum, right? And the forum isn't part of the scavenger hunt, right? Well, the community is more than just the forum, so look there. Before looking through the Community links, I literally went through EVERY SINGLE news article, press release, and newsletter. It took hours, and hours. Fortunately, there were one or two which I probably wouldn't have found otherwise. But boy... On the bright side, I found a news article from forever ago which had a poll in it asking "should we fix this problem?". lol P.S.: This information is not cheating. The locations of the badges are randomized for everyone. Where my badges were will not be the same places as where your badges are. The rules for where the badges can and cannot be located are the same, but the actual locations are different.

This year's was the fastest for me. Maybe I've just been doing them too long, but EVGA's directions help a lot too. I don't know why people don't read directions. About 20 minutes in total to complete.

Always good to have hope that you win though. While I wouldn't expect to win if I enter a contest I know I would be happy if I did win. In a drawing like this I might wait to upgrade until winners get announced as long as I have a system running. I would know I likely won't win but still if I did win a nice prize I wouldn't want to have just upgraded before getting it.

I accidentally sent an extra email to the winning reply email address without my confirmations. Is it possible to check and see if I'm set as far as receiving my prize? Thanks!

Luckily I was much faster this year than in the previous years 8) Unfortunately, I wasn't lucky again :( also: great that I can finally post again (I think there was something messed up with the forums); I meant to post the first part of this message at the beginning of the event :D
