    There have been white balls picked off it a lot. I think that the balls and where they are, don't relate to the prize? Like hook-a-duck sort of... some of the balls have £20 written on them... so I'm *guessing* one relates to the car too?

    Thanks for that :)
    Thanks to all who post comps :)

    Still a bit confused by this - Did you get to see your starting point before you sent your directions Toniq? :)


    Nope as the starting place is random xx

    the car doors are open which means you need to hook the car etc, little prizes in the whiteballs me thinks

    Only a few minutes to go it seems - I won £20 a while ago (thanks Toniq!!), any others win anything? Know if anyone won the car?

    They announced the car winner, it was someone actually at the scene, might be worth popping along if you are in Glasgow or Manchester as loads that were present one x

    Well done pate x

    Well done to everyone who managed to win! I don't think the instructions people gave really mattered though, I think it was more about playing at the right time because it seemed very organised when the bigger prizes would be grabbed properly, especially with the car where the person controlling the claw didn't make it grab properly until the very end of the day even though it had plenty of opportunity to earlier on. Quite similar to a real claw machine where they are set to win after so long. Still a fun competiton though, the props were great but some of the people who played inbetween the winners could have technically won if it wasn't played this way, I don't think they had any chance to begin with if they wasn't playing at the right 'time'. It makes sense as all the bigger prizes could have been won too quickly, I asked them on twitter but they didn't reply. If anyone goes to the events, I could be wrong but if I was you I would play at the end of the day if you're trying to win the car and after some time has passed since the last winner for the other big prizes, best of luck to anyone who goes along.
