    There has been an announcement, IA put a thread up about it, there was a blog article about it telling you all about the winners (except their forum names though).
  • I saw the thread from I_A when she read about it in the Sun, but I hadn't seen the blog.

    What surprised me was that a thread wasn't started in DFW by Martin to officially announce the winners to us as users rather than us finding out by reading about it and then announcing it ourselves - particularly with it taking so long to announce.

    Takes off PR Manager's hat ;)

    Guys - reading the piece from 'The Sun', I don't think they are MSE-ers (only I_A) as she is the only one the paper associates with MSE. I think the others must have entered via the newspaper :confused:
