Now, i&amp;#39;m not a mathematician - but that makes pretty stupidly good odds of winning - so i would suggest people actually check the draw results every month!!!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Don&amp;#39;t worry guys, i&amp;#39;m not on a &amp;#39;downer&amp;#39; - i just really enjoy giving the prizes to the winners, and it&amp;#39;s a little frustrating when the prizes are not claimed, hence this thread. I will not raise this issue again, promise. &lt;img src="http://forum.beoworld.org/emoticons/01.gif" alt="Smile" /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Lee&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>Re: Claim your Prizes!!</title><link>https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/127429.aspx</link><pubDate>Thu, 03 Jul 2008 17:40:22 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">41a2a90c-3a1e-4bd3-b144-3883695a7f38:127429</guid><dc:creator>jk1002</dc:creator><slash:comments>0</slash:comments><comments>https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/127429.aspx</comments><wfw:commentRss>https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=13&amp;PostID=127429</wfw:commentRss><description>&lt;p&gt;I think a personal message should do the trick, there is no spam filtering.

But here might be an explication:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In the June PD, I noticed there was a winner from Luxembourg and I checked in the members list who he was. There I noticed, that he had registrated in 08/07 and has been online for the last time in 11/07. I imagine that a member, that shows that much interest for the site/ forum has not given his principle email-adress to beoworld and therefor doesn&amp;#39;t even know that he has won.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Whose fault is this? I don&amp;#39;t know. Beoworld needs every member, even those who don&amp;#39;t claim their prizes. But if you need to get rid of some unclaimed prizes, just send them to members that have not won so far... &lt;img src="http://forum.beoworld.org/emoticons/05.gif" alt="Wink" /&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
