Wonder if myself @X-13 and others who won Stocktober are being excluded from winning in this competition due to winning in the last one ?

 

I wonder if I can get more than the max entries again, like I did last year...

 

Also, MYTH BUSTED! Watch the video.

But... how can I "tis the season" again while maintaining maximum MADvent-ness?

 

You're a cruel one, Mr Grinch Robinson.

You can still max your MADvent, but no-one will be able to break the max.

 

There'll be another opportunity for bonus entry coming next week.

Did anyone else find the first part of the video confusing? I did, and it was about me!

Must be due to my age...

I did - and I was the one talking!

Talk about rubbing our noses in it! TWICE you won in Stock2ber! (Does that sound a little Yoda-esque?)

Guess what I've just found in my pigeon hole from Royal Mail...

 

"Unfortunately we can't deliver your item because there is a fee to pay"

"The sender didn't pay the full postage (includes a £1 handing fee)"

"Payment due: £1.41"

 

I wonder what it could be??? :/

You're right, it is from me, and the postage mistake is entirely my boo-boo. If you haven't already, don't pay the fee as it is not worth it.

 

See my earlier response:

I have to apologise about this. As a marketing/silly man, rather than one of our professional shipping guys, I did not realise that the weight limit on the stamps used to send out the Stock2ber thank you sweeties was 100g, and unfortunately each package came to roughly 125g, so some of you may be getting demands from the post office to pay to receive your overweight deliveries. Don't pay it please - there are only a small handful of chewy sweets in each envelope, so it is not worth it.

 

If you get one of these demands from the post office, or your package has not turned up yet, please do let me know though so I can get some more sent to you with the appropriate postage on this time!

@VeryPC - Received a £1.41 undeliverable item card today. Wasn't expecting anything from you guys as I've already had my Intel i3 gobstopper, my 'Bring Me The Box' Stocktober2 t-shirt and my Hello Kitty Advent calendar. Unless you have been particularly generous and sent out some chewy, sweetie-type things as well...

So sorry about this. It's the Stock2ber thank you letters - I foolishly ordered the stamps for this myself instead of leaving it to the shipping guys who would know better and miscalculated the postage rate. See this earlier response previously posted:

FYI - there are only a small handful of chewy sweets and a VeryPC brochure in each envelope.

I haven't got anything yet. [Was I supposed to?]

 

If you're resending stuff... Feel free to include a 2.5" male to 3.5" male audio cable or a 2.5" female to 3.5" male adapter. [i need one for PS4/Headset connections.]

Do you? Are you sure? Do you know the full implications of being a VeryPC winner? Have you read the full VeryPC winners T&Cs?

 

Do you want to only be allowed to only drink from cup wrapped in a VeryPC cup cooler? Do you want the only software you can use on your PC to be the copy of Office 2010 you won in Stockb2ber? Do you want to be forced to parade up and down your High Street wearing nothing but a VeryPC t-shirt saying things like "Have a VeryPC day sir!"

 

Of course you do because its awesome! Fingers crossed for you!
