To reward our very first set of backers, our early birds, we've decided to go big, just look at the prizes that are up for grabs this time!

PRIZE #1: A BRAND NEW NINTENDO SWITCH CONSOLE!

PRIZE #2: A $50 AMAZON GIFT CARD

PRIZE #3: A $25 AMAZON GIFT CARD
PRIZE #4: A $25 AMAZON GIFT CARD
PRIZE #5: A $25 AMAZON GIFT CARD

As you may have noticed, the total value of those prizes exceeds the amount we've received on Patreon so far. That's because the raffles are not monthly, they're quarterly! Also, please note that while the prizes are really cool for this first raffle, we don't know yet whether the next raffles will have such prizes again (unless Patreons donation continue increasing). Your support will also fund the GBAtemp Bounty which will be announced later this month.

How to enter?
In order to enter you must:
1) be a Patreon backer since June - anyone who became a backer after July 1st is not included since their first payment will be processed in August
2) post in this thread
3) not get banned or suspended until the winners are announced

When's the deadline?
You have one week to enter. This thread will be locked on July 12th.

When will the winners be announced?
Within a few days after July 12th.
We'll do a live stream on Twitch (details here for those who can access it).

ruined the surprise :(
But no one would have found it otherwise.
This isn't so much of an easter egg as it is downright steganography. I love steganography and find it to be a lot of fun, but I would never know to start looking in that specific frame of the video. I mean, I noticed the white line below Costello's avatar, but I thought it was just a copy paste error, like so many of the posts on GBAtemp where the text is all black, or all white.

*Hasn't been on GBATemp for a few days now* I won a gift card??...I never win anything 0.o
you also had been here just a month, but it's kite usual the "newbs" win (beginners luck)
no offense and nothing personal (and i am sure you understand), but i am very happy that the switch went to someone who had been here for a really long time, it's a regular and has contributed with cool projects here at the temp, and the first prize didn't end up to someone that joined recently...
but it's also nice that new corners also got prizes and got the same change, there is no discrimination :D

They said you have to be a backer or reply in this thread is what the message said bro
post in the raffle thread that will appear on the home page some time during November
I can assure you the winners announcement of the previous raffle isn't the thread that's not even made yet.
Also, you have to be a backer to participate in raffles. That's one of the things they advertise backing with.
