    I must be correct as the Vr button closed at 11am and the fit blaze opened, unless i'm missing something

    Yeah you missed the VR helmet :(
    The second winner tweeted about 5 mins before the hour too, so .. not sure how this is being judged?
    Wishing you all good luck!

    I tweeted the Vr device at 10am as the button opened, if what you are saying is rach is right then how come they open the new tweet button on the hour after a countdown.

    I presumed the time is when it will be drawn

    You needed to tweet for the Gear VR as close as possible to 11am.

    I've just been creating a new tweet on twitter and pasting in the relevant message from the main post in this thread, rather than using the button on the shortlist website.

    They changed the T&Cs between when I posted the comp & this morning by bumping each prize to an hour later.

    That makes more sense, I've been doing it the same way as their button will slow you down as it's a few clicks till posted.

    Am confused. I tweeted for the fitness blaze at bang on 11am. Was that wrong?

    It would appear this comp is an absolute shambles - that was tweeted 5 mins before the hour.

    Delete that tweet and tweet it again as close as possible to 12pm

    I have tweeted to ask is it a chosen hour mark by them or the actual hour mark, expecting zero response as others have asked the same.
