[i][b]The original thread on BoardGameGeek has been deleted[/b] because BGG has rules against posting about promotional events, which I did not realise when I posted originally. However, the contest [b]is still taking place[/b], we are just relaxing the bit about posting on both sites. It is still helpful if you provide your BGG username when you register in this thread; it gives Roxley another way to contact you in the event you win.[/i]

[i]Here is the text of the original thread on BGG, with appropriate modifications (thanks to the user who pointed out Google's cache, as I foolishly hadn't saved it and didn't fancy typing it out again).[/i]

In collaboration with Roxley Game Laboratory, who are currently kickstarting a new edition of the original Brass and a new game, Brass: Birmingham, there's a prize draw event taking place on brass.orderofthehammer.com in which you can win one of 3 Deluxe Bundles including all funded Stretch Goals. To be in with a chance of winning, you just need to play a game on the site during the month of May.

[b]Rules for entering[/b]

To enter, just post in this thread. If you have a BoardGameGeek account, please tell us the name of it in your post, since this gives us another method of contacting you in the event that you win.

You can get up to 5 chances to win a prize by playing up to 5 games on the site. Of course, hopefully you will be enjoying yourself and will end up playing more games than that, but you don't get further chances to win a prize if you do.

[b]If you have trouble registering an account on the site[/b]

I am aware that the orderofthehammer site is temperamental when it comes to sending emails. I apologise for this. In the event that you want to register on the site and don't receive the activation email, please send me a private message on BoardGameGeek telling me the account name, and I'll activate your account.

[b]Details[/b]

There are 3 identical prize packs on offer. Each is a Brass: Lancashire + Brass: Birmingham Deluxe Bundle, as described on the Kickstarter page linked above, and including all funded Stretch Goals. Shipping to North America, the EU, Australia or New Zealand is included. For other locations, Roxley reserves the right not to include shipping.

Every game you play (up to and including your 5th) on the orderofthehammer site between now and the end of May will give you a shot at winning a prize. It doesn't matter how many players are in the game. To qualify, the game has to at least reach the start of the Rail Phase before the end of May. Games that are in progress and are already in the Rail Phase as of now also qualify. I reserve the right to admit additional games that don't meet these requirements, as I see fit. Please finish every game you play in on the site, regardless of whether it already qualifies, as it is disappointing for other players if you don't.

You can't win more than one prize, even if you play more than one game. Playing multiple games increases your chances of winning a prize, but you can still only win at most once.

It does not matter how well you play your games or whether you win them, although of course you should try your best to win.

In entering this competition, you give your permission for Roxley to contact you via BGG in the event that you win; you also give permission for me to supply Roxley with the email address you used for your orderofthehammer account in the event that you win, so that they can contact you this way if they so choose.

Winners will have one week from being contacted by Roxley to claim their prize. In the event that a winner takes too long to respond, Roxley reserves the right to invalidate that player's entry and draw again for the prize.

I will not be conducting the prize draw. Roxley will be drawing the winners. I will be supplying Roxley with a list of user accounts and the number of qualifying games they played, so as to allow them to do this.

We reserve the right to omit user accounts from the draw if we are concerned that they might have been created to unfairly give a person multiple entries into the competition.

We reserve the right to impose additional rules if we feel that they are needed in order to ensure that the event is fair and that everyone has a chance to win. We do not expect that this will be necessary, since we think that board gamers are generally sporting and will enter into the spirit of the event by playing fair.

[b]Full disclosure[/b]

I am receiving compensation (in the form of money and a copy of the product) from Roxley for collaborating with them on this event and another event we have planned that will be posted about soon, and for displaying a banner on the site.

This page (https://www.boardgamegeek.com/thread/1772707/roxley-games-brass-contest-ends-may-7th) suggests the contest ended May 7th (and the 'Enter Now' says the "Contest is now closed to new entries.")...

The time period for the prize draw has ended (registration has also now closed).

It'll take me a little time to collate the data on who entered and how many qualifying games they played, and once that's happened the results will be sent to Roxley so that they can conduct the prize draw. Thanks to everyone who participated! I hope you enjoyed your games!

Posted by Hammerite 2017-06-21 22:02:26 GMT

The winners are staszek, plumebrest and Golonko.

Thank you all for entering! To the winners, I have given Roxley your contact details and they will be contacting you soon.
