go check again people
You don't think we might have been checking every 5 seconds for the last 3/4 of an hour or anything? (or was that just me?)

What stuff? There is a thing that says that they'll be checking the details manually and any duplicates will be disqualified, so be careful about submitting things more than once.

Sorry for unspoilered post... I didn't think, I was too excited. Pathetically easy though. Just now sent in my address. Wonder if I'll get a late code? Probably not... Sucks, I won't get a parcel. I wonder what's in them? Is it vital to get one in order to carry on? I doubt it. They wouldn't want to limit the player base like that. Post what's in them when you get them... Lucky b*****ds...

ooh. i've just thought, they didn't ask for my name: I'm going to get a package addressed to JebJoya through the uni postal service - I'm never going to get it.
Bollocks.

I'd say the address business is so we can get postal mail in the future. Or else for a marketing company, so we're all going to be getting real life spam.
I'd say the parcel is going to be e-mailed.

If it would be emailed, why limit it to 333?

Would indicate that they don't need our names. So we won't be receiveing it in the post. Some marketing companies that use real mail don't put names on it, just addresses. That way they can post multiple fliers and they go to multiple houses. This is just a possibility. I'm not saying that the organisers of this are unscrupulous, this is just spec.

Hm. I'm pretty sure it asked me my name. How odd.

It did? Fair enough, I totally wasn't noticing everything in the mad panic to fill the form in... I probably filled that bit in, most of that form is just a blur in my memory as it sped through my computer,..

Err... get the puzzle right, and you were forwarded to a page to put your address in.
