I have no dog in the fight (or gift horse which to look in the mouth of) but my number one complaint about this contest is that the current relevant info is not maintained in the first or second post of this thread. Are you one of the 50 ECF winners? Are you one of the 300 email winners? Who knows, the info is buried among 27,000 posts. It is not surprising that there are so many posts asking for more information. Add to that those that have already been told that they won, and want every last detail down to what color socks the mailman is wearing. Just sayin'.

Plot twist... mailman is a crossdresser and wears tights. :lol:

On a more serious note, I have to agree. As a matter of fact, it has been asked a couple of times in this thread, to add winners and other relevant info to the first post.
It wouldn't solve the issue at hand, but at least we could just keep on pasting the link to the first post, instead of typing out the same answers. :)

@v1ks_ Wait, in the reply here with the winner names, my username was in it. I also got an email this morning and did reply after about 1-1.5 hours with my details. Does that mean that i will receive my prize 100% ?!

I can't give you any guarantees, as I'm not involved in the process of picking the winner and shipping out the prizes.
However, if you've received email saying that you won, if you've received email asking for your details and you've replied to the second email, I don't see any reason why you wouldn't get the Cloud Machine kit that you've won, my friend!

The whole 250 out of 300 deal is not a problem really. People running such contests are more or less aware, how many people never actually claim their prizes. So what they've done, is they have drawn 300 names, anticipating, that at least 50, from the original 250, won't respond to the request to send their details.

I hope this makes sense.
Speaking a foreign language here and trying to explain as good as I can. ;)

Time for some [emoji14]op:and :toast: and a :vapor:
Let the craziness proceed.
Amen, brother... It appears that the road ahead will somewhat resemble Mr Toad's wild ride... I completely understand being excited about winning - I just think smok has their hands full trying to sort this all out and that communication has been a little challenging regarding process/ next steps/ expectations for those who won in the main contest... Hopefully it will settle down, but I am betting that today will be somewhat full of semi-panicky, impatient posts until the business day in Shenzhen begins and there is (hopefully) some follow up... In the meantime... Coffee, popcorn and vape...

I haven't gotten my second email yet. :(

For what's it worth, some people who haven't received their second emails either, have went ahead and sent their details anyway.
The address is support [at] smoktech [dot] com
Might just go ahead and do it. Then again, I've no idea about SMOK's stance on the matter.
