Jennings Brewery Instant Win!!???

This is a bit odd. Last night I played the pull the pint game as I have done for many months and each time the pint filled up but the message was 'sorry so near etc'. I thought this was odd so I emailed Jennings to let them know as I thought maybe the game was not working properly. I had a prompt reply telling me I wasnt on the winners list and they would look into whether there was a problem with the website and to try again the next day.

I did try again today and the same thing happened except on my second pull I had the message 'Congratulations you have won a runners up prize'. Which was great, but thought it was a little bit of a coincidence that I won after sending my email!!

Happy for the win, but was wondering if anyone else has won on this game or if they have had the same experience!!

    I won the main prize of a cheese hamper thing last year. Took me by complete surprise and very nearly closed the window as went into autopilot and expected the usual sorry so near.

    Congrats on getting a runners up though! Maybe your e-mail nudged them to give more runners up prizes... or you just had a lucky moment!

    I had a runner up win about 6 months ago which took me by surprise. Still do it every day and still get the usual losing reply.
