Apparrently, the Canadian clause in the rules is the result of Canadian laws that outlaw gambling. Here's a quote from "Internet Marketing in Canada" by W. Lee Webster:
According to this, all that is required is to do *something* that is skill based instead of something based purely on random odds. In other words, asking "what is 2 times 2" would be a valid question; and would result in the recipient winning if he answered "four"- but would not win if he jokingly answered "22" or something else.Quote:
It is also illegal to award prizes by pure chance.86 To ensure the contest is lawful, a contest organizer must require a winner to answer a “skill testing question” before awarding the prize. Usually the question involves a four-step time-limited mathematical question. While it is possible to use other forms of tests such as trivia questions, these novel approaches attract more risk and it is suggested that a prudent organizer use a time-limited mathematical question.
this crap is making my eyelids heavy... i've been doing it for 20 min straight and my brain is about to explode

well, i fell asleep for like 20min, i occionaly checked my email and read at sharky....
I have tried for the last 15 minutes and I couldn't get anything. I give up. :(
I won!!! :D :D
I did the backspace/enter combo that someone else mentioned earlier (I was doing it the hard way by opening up new Explorer Windows!!)
Took me about 10 minues....Although it seemed like forever..
I *ALMOST* hit backspace when the winning screen came on - Im glad my brain wasn't THAT fried - a few more minutes, and it might of happened! Sorry to hear that some have done that - I was really afraid of doing it, so I guess sub-consiously I was ready for it :)
6-8 weeks for delivery, although I think they'll get here sooner than that.
Thank you Logitech! All my keyboards and mice are Logitech now that I think about it....Even my joystick....I deserve it!! :p

i've been doing refresh then hit enter to "resend" the information... been going on for 40 damn minutes
Right now i have a 9 frame page refreshing... it works well, but still no winner :(
ack n/m
Keep trying, you'll get there... unless of course you live in NY or Florida. The promotion rules say that NY and FL are limited to 62 prizes each because of state laws on sweepstakes. 62 units each might not last long for those states. BTW, I used backspace and enter to refresh. It worked fien, but I was really careful not to go too fast and blow it when I won.Quote:

Won 6 of them! I actually ran out of addresses off the top of my head to send them. The last one I "slipped" on the address (wrote 7102 instead of 7101) so my roommate could get one :p Here's how I did it:

I gave my friend the page I made with the frames and he won 3 in the last hour :D
that would have been more helpful if you had shown that earlier LOLQuote:
