Anyone who never got a prize

If you got 1st, 2nd, or 3rd place and never got your prize, plese say I:

Unless it's just me you're all avoiding

Honestly, I may seem to be a b**** about this, but I consider it unfair. Even if i just won a T-shirt, I still would like to get it.

^Did you get first?

This is strange, I mean, perhaps other people never took the initiative to find out where their prize is, but I am.

Did you give us your mailing address or other contact information so we could get you your prize?

By the way, we are currently discussing this. We will get back to you and other contest winners.

So you don't feel like you're being ignored, we are working on this issue. Steven and Alex are very busy men. You will get your prize. Don't send messages to either of them, though. They're too busy to handle messages (they get many a day). Just know that we are handling this.

I wish I could get a T-shirt, simply because I wanted to show it off. I never one anything from skill, and this is just an amazing thing, that I wish I could show off and be arrogant about.

Yeah... What exactly is the "issue" here? You should be prepared to give the prizes you promised.

I could let maybe a month or two go, but six is just a few too many.

And to think, Six Flags gave TN these passes, I wonder where they are........

I think that before any of the January Contest winners get their prizes, we should get our prizes. I got August second place. You wanna know how hard I worked? I had to convince my mom to push the plane tickets up one day (from Chicago) so that I could get home in time to submit my coaster. That's not easy to arrange, I did it for my coaster to try winning something, and even though I did win, I got nothing.

Why does no mod or admin answer? I tihnk that what I stated up there^^ (January contest winner) makes alot of sense. Why leave us hanging, all we did was actively participate to keep the site going.......

First off, no one has e-mailed us via the contact us form (PMs cannot be answered) regarding the prizes from past months.

Second, starting a thread about this is not going to help matters. It's become hard for me to even look into the threads unless someone points things out since I have other things to tend to besides the contest. No one has even brought this to my attention until now.

Lastly, if you are an international winner and received a T-shirt, it may have been shipped. However, it faces customs and other shipping issues which we may not have any control over. We have been working on trying to fix that by finding someone who could produce the prize packages in Europe or in a nation that does so.

That said, when the January winners are announced, they will get their prizes as scheduled. If you are a past winner, it is up to you to use the contact us form, with the subject "Past NL contest winner -- prize issue" to begin the resolution process (and make sure you include the month you won, your full, actual postal address, t-shirt size, and a best contact e-mail address). Otherwise, we will consider it a dead issue.
