*VOID* Win an Xbox 360 250GB + Forza Horizon (MyGaming competition)

[James]

Hi everyone. I have some rather bad news.

During a forum update, the developer managed to break the activity system, and also erase the running results of the activity competition.
Unfortunately there is no snapshot to roll back.

This means the Xbox 360 competition is voided.

To make up for this huge failing on our part, we will relaunch the competition, and add some new prizes to the mix so we have four prize winners in the next competition:

Xbox 360 250GB
Razer Tron Mouse _ Mouse Pad (Razer SA sponsored)
Razer Hydra motion controller
RC toy helicopter

I want to test the system is working order before launching (the award system was broken as well) so I don't have a launch time-frame at the moment. I'm hoping to start by tomorrow, or Monday the latest.

Again, apologies for this and please don't hate MyGaming ;_;

~~~Original competition launch~~~

We are giving away:

• Xbox 360 250GB console
• Forza Horizon
• 1 month LIVE Gold subscription

To enter the competition:

• Post regularly
• Create quality conversation topics
• General forum activity, such as polls, calendar dates, awarding reputation to users for their comments, and rating thread.
• Anything you do on the MyGaming forum will boost your activity score for the competition.

The competition closes at 23.55 on Thursday 25 July 2013, and the top 25 users will go into a random draw to pick the winner.

That's the short and easy version of how the competition works. Good luck!
