A random competitor will be drawn at random in the next 5 days after this weeks competition has closed. You already have the chance to win a gift card each week, but in addition to that, I will be giving a MOYU RS3 M 2020 3X3 and DNM-37 Lubricant. All you have to do is compete. If you haven't yet, head over to the competition page and compete in at least 1 event now.

Happy cubing!

You can review the previous weeks in the Statistics page. I have been somewhat surprised how little attention the giveaways get on the forum.

I think it's more the people who will bother participating in the weekly competitions already do

I've done many giveaways over the years though. The last one got like 50-75 participants, even though hundreds of people login to the forum each day.

I guess the rs3m 2020 is not that appealing

I guess the rs3m 2020 is not that appealing

Sure it's appealing, but a lot of people already have it. If I didn't own it yet I would have participated for sure. (I almost did anyway so I could have 2, but I figured it would be mean to take it away from people who don't have it yet)

I mean, you can refuse to take the prize and ask pjk to send it to someone else. It's only a half-percent chance of winning anyway.

(I "won" the weekly comp giftcard lottery once but turned it down, so you know, that's a thing you can do.)

Sure, we've done giveaways with the best cubes on the market and also didn't get much participation. And appealing is a relative term - some people would love to have certain puzzles that others wouldn't find interesting since they already have it. So we just give away random puzzles usually - top rated puzzles. The goal is to have fun and give away puzzles, if you guys have any suggestions, definitely shoot me a PM.
