Default How To Win

HOW TO WIN
Question
Quote:
Do the ones who enter the contest first also get the keys first? What if I entered first with a regular account then upgraded it to Premium and entered up again?
Premiums will win keys on a first come, first served basis while supplies last. If we have leftovers, Registered Users who entered that day will get in the raffle. If you become a Premium Member after you enter, you must sign up again as a Premium Member. We will delete your entry as a Registered User and count the one as a Premium Member.

Question
Quote:
Does being a Premium Member and entering the giveaway guarantee a key?
Being a Premium Member and entering guarantees a keys while supplies last.

Question
Quote:
If we got a confirmation for submitting our e-mail, and we are Premium, that means we have a high chance of getting in correct?
That is correct.

Question
Quote:
So, no chance for only Registered Users?
The chance for a Registered User to win depends on two things:
  1. The number of Premium entries for the day. They get theirs first.
  2. The number of Registered User entries for the day. Each Registered User gets one (1) entry in our raffle for remaining keys.
Question
Quote:
How do I know I won?
Start by checking your email. Is there a key in there? If yes, you won! If no, enter again for the next drawing. Good luck!

Question
Quote:
How do you determine the winners again?
I have a big pile of entries that I download in a CSV file. Then I have to pick out the duplicates. Once that is done, I have to cross-check the list with our previous contest winners to make sure there are no duplicates there. Then I have to check IPs to make sure no one is trying to scam and get more than one key by using two accounts.

*pant pant*

Question
Quote:
Does it help my chances to enter multiple times or to use different email addresses?
No, no, no, no, and NO. In fact, it only makes more work for me.

If you create more than one Ten Ton Hammer account, you are breaking our rules and your entries are ALL considered fraudulent.

If you enter multiple times but type in a different email each time, that tells me you are trying to cheat. You thought that would count as more entries. Dirty cheaters get ALL of their entries deleted.

If you enter multiple times with the exact same user name and email, I will delete all but ONE (1) of your entries. Just don't do it. If you see the page that says you are entered, let it go. If you don't win today, enter again tomorrow. Good luck!

Default I Just Became A Premium Member

JUST BECAME A PREMIUM MEMBER
Question
Quote:
I tried to access a page that is for Members Only and I get an error. Does that mean there is a problem?
Sometimes we take pages offline for a little while to fix code or if we run out of the prizes advertised on the page. To test if your Premium Membership is active, visit this page.

Question
Quote:
Quick question... does it matter that I signed up for Premium after I signed up for the contest (on the same account of course)?
Yes, it matters. If you only entered up before becoming a Premium member, go do it again! We'll delete your entry as a Registered User and count you as a Premium Member.

Question
Quote:
So I just signed up for Premium Membership. About how long is it taking to get the beta keys afterward?
Premium Members get put on the list to receive a key while supplies last in the order of when they enter. Remaining keys are raffled out to Registered Users.

But let me be clear in saying that you are not paying for a beta key. You are paying for extra chances to get a beta key. If we run out of keys before you get one, you still have all of the Premium Memberships that you paid for, and you'll get more chances to win the next contest.

Good luck to all!

Question
Quote:
I am a subscriber, I just paid for it. It says that forum benefits take 1-2 days to do, so maybe that's why my name isn't in green on the forums yet.
Premium Membership is immediate after payment on the content side (where the contests are hosted). On the forum side, I have to manually flip a switch. I normally check once in the AM and once in the PM.

But the short answer is that you can enter contests as a Premium Member after your payment is confirmed. In the meantime, you're just waiting on me to set forum permissions so that you can have a custom forum title and not see ads on the forums.

Default How Many Keys Do You Have?

HOW MANY KEYS DO YOU HAVE?
Question
Quote:
Will email notifications be sent out, say before another possible wave happens?
No. I will send out the keys each night during the contest sometime between 8pm and midnight Eastern Time. If you check your email after midnight Eastern and have a key, you win. If not, go enter again for the next drawing.

Question
Quote:
So, how many keys are you able to send per day?
We are not always allowed to say how many keys we have. Often times, a publisher has multiple websites asking for a chance to give away beta keys. If they don't give all of the sties the same amount, they may ask them to keep the actual number a secret.

Question
Quote:
If you run out of keys for Premium Members, do you make some sort of post to that effect?
We have a set number of keys to give out every day. We open the contest and give away all of them. If we run out before each Premium Member who enters gets one, then only Premium Members get one from that batch. Any Premium Members who entered but did not get one for that day should enter again the next day.

Default Duplicate Entries

DUPLICATE ENTRIES
Question
Quote:
Ralsu,

I accidentally entered twice. That won't be a problem will it?
No, not a problem. Extras are deleted but original is retained. Just don't be trying to cheat by entering with multiple email addresses or by creating more than one Ten Ton Hammer account. That counts as an attempt to defraud the contest and makes me use the delete key for ALL of your entries.

I DIDN'T WIN. SHOULD I ENTER AGAIN?
Question
Quote:
Ralsu,

I signed up earlier today as a Premium Member, but I did not get a key. Does that mean my entry got lost today?
If you did not get a key today, regardless of who are, enter again the next day.

Default How Soon Do I Get A Key If I Win?

IF I WIN, HOW SOON DO I GET A KEY
Question
Quote:
OMFG!!!!1!!one1!! I just entered, like, 72 times and I did not get a key.
I send the keys via email each night between 8pm and midnight Eastern. There is not magical robot spitting out keys. We like to give individualized service at Ten Ton Hammer. I lovingly caress each key before sending it to a new home.

Default This Is The Last Of The Keys!

THIS IS THE LAST?
Question
Quote:
Is this really the last of the keys for Closed Beta?
We know how many keys we have and how many we are allowed to give away each day. By the last day of this contest, we will be on the last set of keys.

Question
Quote:
What happens if you get more Premium entries than you have keys?
Then only Premium Members will get keys and in the order they entered.

Question
Quote:
I only bought a Premium Membership for the key. I should get one!
We appreciate your patronage. Your membership ensures you are given extra consideration in our contests, including ones for beta keys. Enjoy some of the Members Only content, and keep your eyes peeled for more contests soon.

Question
Quote:
Can I get a refund of my Premium Membership since I did not get a key.
No. You were never buying a key. You were always buying the TenTonHammer.com Premium Member benefits. You'll still get those for the duration of your membership, and we feel confident you'll find enough Members Only content and chances for prizes to make you glad you stuck around for the long haul.
