This one wasn't posted in the forums, I came across it on twitter. The entry price was either £5 or £10 (I forget) which is above the forum limit otherwise I would have posted it. I've followed the charity Special Effect for a while and they tweeted the raffle out back in december. I entered thinking nothing of it. I figured I wouldn't win but the money is going to a great cause so I was happy either way. I then got a WEM email from wishio last week who had to verify a few details over video call but confirmed me as the winner!! As a gamer who never has a new gen console, i'm made up!! They asked me for my address details yesterday morning and the xbox was delivered today. I don't have anyone on the forums to thank but I wanted to post about it here and also say a huge thanks to all posters on the forums
Here's a tweet with my mug on it from the company that arranged the raffle.
