    i have been entering every day and had been winnning frequently but not been notified of any wins since the 26th july- just wondered if anyone else has had a win since? Or if they might be be behind... or if more likely... my lucky streak has ended... ! haha

    I felt the same way for a while, I had been entering quite a few draws and never got nothing for about 2 weeks then all of a sudden over 3 days I got around 6 winning emails!
    ...

    Gueld:You can only enter each code once :)

    ...

    Just been looking on there Facebook page and quite a few people have mentioned on there about the paintballing wins being unfair.

    Ive been told (via email) that they are looking into my issue with the prize and will get back to me soon. I dont know if this means that they will offer me some kind of an alternative or what?

    Did anyone get anywhere with enquiring about the £10 Amazon voucher win, seems strange that no one has one any of these for a while?

    Sorry for a double post,

    There are quite a few comments on Doritos Facebook page that suggest that cheating has been going on in order to gain high scores on the leaderboard.

    Doritos have replied to say that they are taking this very seriously and are looking into it right now.

    So, if you had a high score but were knocked off at the very last minute by a ridiculously high score I would keep an eye on their Facebook page as you might be able to do something about it.

    I saw this, and I commented on their page the other day about it, as have several others. It came to light again monday morning as someone had a score of around 350k, then someone mentioned that they were top of the board one week only for someone to post a score of 500k at the very last second to beat them.
    Someone has now worked out the cheat, and put on a ridiculous high score on, then posted their username wrote "STOPCHEATS"
    Doritos has finally taken notice.
    BEST EVER WINS WON IN ORDER (so far) = Sony Camcorder, 32" lcd telly, micro ipod hifi, Ipod Nano, Playstation 3, Andrex Jackpup, Holiday to USA, nintendo wii, Liverpool vs Everton tickets, £250 Reward Your thirst, £500 Pepsi, p&o rotterdam trip, perfume hamper, Dr Who stamp set, steam cleaner.

    comping = nowt more thrillin' than winnin':T :j

    Thanks,

    I hope they do sort it and go back over the weeks to offer prizes to those who were supposed to win but lost out.

    It wont effect me anyway because the furthest Ive managed to get with this game is level 4 :rotfl:, when I try to click enemies I cant seem to move my mouse.

    The paintballing was my first ever comp win and I won't be able to use it, so feel a bit letdown in terms of that. I wonder if they would offer an alternative prize. I don't feel it is necessarily deserved but would be nice!

    Don't let this put you off comping keep trying and you will hopefully get a much better prize soon!

    A lot of people on Facebook have also commented about this prize not necessary being a 'prize' as you have to pay out large amounts which will be at LEAST £100 if you take 10 players.

    They are saying that they are looking into it so hopefully they should be able to offer us some sort of alternative, even if it was a prize of less value I would be happy.

    The same thing happened earlier on this comp with amazon vouchers (requirng you to sign upto a 30day trial of love film) from what I can see now it looks as if they pulled that prize but im unsure if they offered alternatives to those who won?

    Just letting everyone know that the rather impossible to get high scores have disappeared and the top score atm is a realistic 181k
    Hope thats the end of the cheating now, it was getting rather annoying.
    Hope some of us get a chance of winning a good prize now.
    Good luck:j

    Seems there are still issues with the scores. If you watch the games back (the 181K and "Will" ones), the scores jump by 10s of thousands of points between levels.
