I won on 9/24 and didn't find out until a week later when I went to type in another code I decided look at my account history and it said I had won. I couldn't believe it. I told my wife and found out she deleted the email thinking it was spam. I guess at least I didn't have to wait a few days going crazy for my account history to update.

Well today is Day 1 for me. Hopefully I can start to focus on my work and stop checking to see if it's there yet.

The "real" reason it's every10minutes.com is because when you think you've won you're on the site every 10 minutes to see if you really did. LOL

Has anyone looked at the FAQ's lately?  They changed the part about it being backwards compatible.  Now it says "Some games can be played".  I guess they dont want a lawsuit for being wrong.

Here's the math on the whole thing:
If you remember from high school math, and is multiplication, or is addition.   Therefore if you have 5 caps that you want to enter, assuming that each drawing has 1500 entrants, you have a 5/1500 chance of winning.  Now, if you spread that 5 caps out over 5 different drawings, your probablilty of winning is 1/500 + 1/500 + 1/500 + 1/1500 + 1/1500 = 5/1500.  Using multiplication would give you the probablility of winning all of them, so we use addition to figure out the probablity of winning one.  So really it is the exact same probablility of winning, assuming that all of the drawings are about the same.

Day Two of the waiting game.

Is there anyone else that is waiting to see if they've "officially" won other than me and gcskate?

I won on 9/26 @ 2:10 PM.  I was bored at work and gave it a shot.  First try and i got it.  only 1 code "1 shot 1 kill, there can only be one highlander" - Dave Attell.  Got my confirmation 2 days later.  I called them up cuz i might be away when it gets shipped and they told me.   they weren't sure what system set up it was going to be..but def a system, hard drive, and game.  But from what i'm reading it's the premium package.  He then told me that it will be shipped either the 1st, 2nd, or 3rd week of november on a SATURDAY.  but it will be before the 22nd.  Other then that....has anyone received their "party pack"
