There's absolutely no truth behind this.

Anyone else looking at this, check out this guy's post history.

Zooombody changed their twitter handle after winning the competition. If you don't believe me, look them up on waybackmachine on archive.org. I really hope they didn't change it because of petty people digging into competition winners.

Apologies to everyone that it took a long time to draw winners - it's not straight-forward with our current system - and we've been super busy.

There's a bunch of legwork involved in reaching out to the winners and collecting their SupportIDs. We often get back their Steam Usernames/PSN names... and they typically have other queries and questions too.

We've heard your feedback though and we'll be switching software to Gleam.io for future contests. It actually would allow us to collect SupportID upon entry. We could give out even more winners then.

they also could have changed their username in order to avoid being stalked by internet detectives like you

Not sure why they downvoted you - They literally did change their username within the last 24 hours

The thing is Oliver, the tweet shows that the user does not exist when writing the tweet. If the user does exist when writing the tweet, the name should not have been black and should have been blue. And, if the user did delete their profile, i would still be able to click on the name but twitter will say "Tweets not available". If the user did change his profile in the past 24 hours, the name on the tweet you posted should of srill been blue. Also what about the other 2? Did they just deleted their comment on it? One did not comment but still eligible to enter despite the posts saying you have to comment. And, why did the other one did not comment but won it by entering an entirely different giveaway?

Im just stating this to hopefully resolve some confusion that can be answered.If a mistake is made from my statements please explain on it because overall some of these winners just dont make sense in terms of how twitter works.

(Edit, ok i see that the twitter. account does exist before but in the Wayback Machine it is already stated as deleted. First of all, how are you going to contact this person if well, they are just gone from twitter since you said you'll contact then after that initial tweet which the person is already gone? How did you not notice the blue name not popping up when writing the tweet to claritfy he is still around? If so, will there just be 19 winners? Or a new winner will be picked)

The account isn't deleted, they changed their name. I don't feel it's good faith for me to post their new name, as they obviously changed it for a reason.

The name WAS blue when I posted it and linked to their profile. It actually still shows blue for me:

The other two I think I might have messed up, looking back, because I didn't realise I used the same hashtag rule for both competitions.

I can pick two additional winners in that case, on Monday.

Apologies for my mistake there.

The new software will solve that problem in future.

Also, if the account existed when writing the tweet, the name should still pop up as Blue. And if i were to click on his name, twitter will just let me view the account but it will say "did not bring any results" because it is deleted. Oliver basically just wrote the name without checking the name is blue and if it even goes to the account.

Not true
