...say the frustrated, bad mouthed losers

this is a perfectly valid winning entry.
not a duplicate, not behind a proxy/VPN, just a regular user who thought he'd enjoy tempmas with the rest of us

edit: I may have spoken too fast... even though he passed all our tests (IP verifications etc.), our secret detective p1ngpong found out that its actually (99% confirmed) Hatsu!
so we'll need to do a redraw for 1 prize if its confirmed ...

I would have gone further, but I didn't trust a site in China with my address with no guarentee of getting anything.

I would like to know how fast it went from the time they signed up to the time they completed the hunt, I mean... some of the questions shoul've been hard to understand for a newcomer

the index of flashcards for example... Not that I don't think they deserve it! Just would like to know

Congratulations to everybody who won something, especially lolzed, CarbonX13 and Cyan

Spoiler

13. In the question, I wrote an answer which basically says: "congrats for getting this far. now what does 2507 mean? its an important number for 2 important people on the temp", it hints at my and shaun's birthday (both 25/07). Another clue in the post says "it's the 2004 one". On people's birthdays GBAtemp usually has a birthday thread. Look for the one from 2004... you can google "happy birthday shaun and costello" for example, the first result should take you to a topic created by dice in 2004. Thats where the next clue is.

Shiiiiiit, I DO remember something about you two being test-tube clone babies artificially animated on the same exact day now... fuccck.

Well, if you checked em all out...

You can see why I'm suspicious, though...0 posts, joined the day after tempmas started, and a name that describes the site more than a user...

Question: How exactly was one supposed to translate "Search for TEMPMAS" that was in the last clue into "Search for TM-HUNT-"?
It was the very last clue I got to before I had to quit and now that I know I was 1 step away from entering, I'm sad that I didn't get it.

Yeah umm, about that, since I lost and all... can I have my address back plz Costello

that clue kept changing, the last one was "TEMPMAS-111084" for example.
tm-hunt-2507, tm-hunt-something, and eventually tempmas-111084.
you can still try it out...

How did i forget a minus?
I was - close to been entered into the draw. I though i had the wrong person ( I was doing it on AW day) and tried yours and shaunj66 number.
Anyway, there will hopefully be a chance next year.
