don't know if this has been mentioned already but the eVGA scavenger hunt has started again. http://www.evga.com/scavenger/

Here are the rules

How to Play

You need to scavenge the eVGA.com website for a special eVGA.com Scavenger Hunt Gold Ribbon icon that you will need to locate (5) five times on various pages throughout the eVGA.com site. (Ribbons will not be placed in the eVGA.com message boards) When you find this icon on a page all you need to do is simply click on it and a small page will popup, it will ask you (2) two questions, (1) one question about eVGA.com products and another question about (1) one of our partners that donated prizes. You will need to enter your name and email address and our system will track the rest for you. You will need to answer the questions correctly to be eligible to win. Only (1) one entry per person is allowed. The eVGA.com Scavenger Hunt will run from July 16, 2004 through July 31, 2004, 12:00 PM PST.
No purchase necessary to enter or win. Scavenger Hunt is open to legal residents of the United States and Canada*.
JavaScript and Cookies are REQUIRED in order to participate in the Scavenger Hunt Game. These are REQUIRED to track your progress in the game.
Participation constitutes entrant's full and unconditional agreement to and acceptance of these Official Rules.
For a complete listing of the rules and explanations, go to the:
eVGA.com Scavenger Hunt Official Rules.

don't know if people want to post answers and where they find the ribbons.

:EDIT:

I was thinking about it for a minute and i am glad that i kinda got to spread the wealth but i would actually like a better chance at winning something :attn: so i deleted the links to the ribbons.

But I will give you tips!

Look in the News articles and other main places on the web site.

I find it real ironic how they are giving away a COMPETITOR'S (Asus) video card as one of the prizes.

OK I'm eligible now what?

Just guess. It tells you if your answer is wrong or not. If it's wrong just close the window and click the ribbon again. A couple of the answers aren't even hard... Ex. What the fastest Athlon 64 chip out.... What's the fastest Pentium 4 EE?

Same where. Do we just wait right?

electromagnetic

Nevermind I got the email. It doesn't say I'm a big winner though, must be something wrong. I will patiently wait for my prize.

Yea the contest doesn't end until the 31st. So we just sit and wait and see if we get lucky and win something :)

Damien, you don't have to get them correct on 1 try. Just keep guessing until it says correct.

sit tight fellas until August 2nd, i think. I didn't realize until a little bit ago that they arn't just giving away video cards, they're giving away a lot of stuff and two top 'o the line gaming systems, cases, motherboards, cpu's, and some software. and oh ya, 25 of those 3d glasses.

07-20-04, 12:29 AM
I'm eligable now! I was able to find 4 of the 5 and found #2-3 here...heh! Thanks bros, :clap:

Would be nice to win something for once.

07-20-04, 12:41 AM
dont tell people what pages the ribbons are on, now more people will enter who wouldn't have spent the time looking for the ribbons and the people who played the contest the right way will have less a chance at winning:(

Winners will be announced today @ 12PM here: http://www.evga.com/scavenger/winners.asp

Now the only question is what did I win? With my luck it will probably be the 3d glasses or the copy of musicmatch. Damn I want that Athlon 64 3700+ and mobo.

There's a surprisingly high ratio of girls in the "top prizes". I should have used a girl's name. :rolleyes:

08-02-04, 03:47 PM
Nadda for me. I was praying for something good either the cpu or video card to take away some of the sting of what it's gonna cost me to upgrade :(

Congrats to the winners.

Yea, but if you won an actuall high priced item, you need to submit your SSN and fill out a tax form to get it. :p :bang head

I didn't win anything either, but I'm glad they gave out ALOT of prizes unlike other contests :cough:vapo:cough:
