Massman Posted September 6, 2012 Posted September 6, 2012 News update follows. We were still looking into the PCMark scores, but it seems that issue is worked out too. Quote
xxbassplayerxx Posted September 11, 2012 Posted September 11, 2012 Any update here? Are the results official? Quote
reggiesanchez Posted September 11, 2012 Posted September 11, 2012 Any update here? Are the results official? Â more importantly are prizes shipped =) Quote
Electroneng Posted September 13, 2012 Posted September 13, 2012 Maybe HWBOT will announce official winners before 2013! It takes longer to get results around here then it does to do the entire contests! Maybe these guys need to hire some help! Quote
Massman Posted September 13, 2012 Posted September 13, 2012 Sorry about the delay. I've been running all over the place (taipei) lately and only yesterday got internet installed in my home/office. Quote
Electroneng Posted September 13, 2012 Posted September 13, 2012 Sorry for my tone! I know you have a lot on your plate! Quote
Electroneng Posted September 20, 2012 Posted September 20, 2012 (edited) I think it is pretty comical that 3 weeks after a major competition ends, still no official release! Edited September 21, 2012 by Electroneng Quote
knopflerbruce Posted September 22, 2012 Posted September 22, 2012 (edited) 9 weeks since the stage I won ended  Gigabyte even upgraded their lineup since the end of the competition. So, basically the prizes are not even from the must current series... rofl.  The way this should've been handled is "stage over" -> "contact winners for shipping details" -> "ship parts". Done. No need to wait till the end of the competition to send the stage prizes, a stage is also a standalone competition - no scores posted in august could change anything related to a stage that ended in July. And also no need to hold the prizes for at least 3 weeks after the end of the competition. You may wonder if prizes will ever be shipped... or if Z89 will be out first.  This is tragic... haha. I feel sorry for the other winners, and I'm somewhat ashamed of being a part of the moderating crew when I see this. I actually hoped some of you other guys had received your stuff, and it was just me who had to wait now. Edited September 22, 2012 by knopflerbruce Quote

Most everyone agrees that these extreme delays are unacceptable. Hwbot has some very responsive moderators like yourself, why not ask them to help with the certifying of results and help produce a news release.  HWBOT has a very loyal membership and fan base.  Massman, if unable to complete tasks in a resonable time frame, needs to delegate some of the responsibility! This is the sign of a true leader. Quote
Massman Posted September 23, 2012 Posted September 23, 2012 Not sure what to write here as you guys are genuinly right. Sorry about that! Â In any case, sponsors have been informed about the shipping addresses. Should be starting to ship next week. Quote
Mr.Scott Posted September 23, 2012 Author Posted September 23, 2012 Not sure what to write here as you guys are genuinly right. Sorry about that! This was enough. Quote
VapoR. Posted September 28, 2012 Posted September 28, 2012 I want to thank very much to all crew from HWBot and Enermax for great prizes (arrive today). Quote
Crew Leeghoofd Posted October 13, 2012 Crew Posted October 13, 2012 Great, sadly nothing from Gigabyte nor GeIL yet I think Dino claimed them at the customs Quote
Massman Posted October 14, 2012 Posted October 14, 2012 Hm. The vendors (and Team Captains) should be aware about the shipping info. Â I'll ask the various vendors what is going on. Quote
reggiesanchez Posted October 18, 2012 Posted October 18, 2012 How bout a credit from these companies. Sorry your the one who has to deal with the upset winners mass man but this kinda sux. Quote
Massman Posted October 21, 2012 Posted October 21, 2012 GeIL and Gigabyte said they'd ship out this week. Â I'm really sorry for the delays Quote
Massman Posted October 21, 2012 Posted October 21, 2012 MSI's prizes should have been shipped out by now? Â Can you check with your team captain ElGappo? Quote
reggiesanchez Posted October 21, 2012 Posted October 21, 2012 Yea I checked no word from him about it Quote
Crew Leeghoofd Posted October 25, 2012 Crew Posted October 25, 2012 Got mail from Ashley from Geil/Thortech, no word yet from Gigabyte (Dino has to get me off the blacklist ) Quote
