    Sorry For the bump, but it might be worth noting this from the terms as they may ask winners to prove they are following them on there

    2. No purchase necessary however a valid Facebook account and internet access is required. Only one entry per Facebook account is allowed.

    as a precaution i am going to move the 'link to this thread' into the FB Only Section of the '2011 MSE Advent Thread' here
