| Shortly before X-Mas DiscreetFX started a Vampire V4 giveaway. It was said winners would be announced shortly after December 31st. However, that apparently has never happened. Was this giveaway just a scam to make us write silly emails to them or has any winner actually been announced? |

Vampires normally come at night under the cover of darkness so you seldom get an annoucement of their arrival!

This will be announced shortly. Covid almost took me off this earth so that caused a delay. _________________ Sent from my Quantum Computer. |

| @DiscreetFX How selfish some users have become, que egositas se han vuelto algunos usuarios, además se esconden como cobardes detrás de una nueva cuenta. How are you? because the Covid-19 is very serious and the more important is your health that the vampire. |

So it is a secret prize giving? If we haven't got an email we didn't win? Strange system!
Obviously I'm glad DiscreetFX is on the mend but this is hardly a transparent Vampire giveaway! I didn't even know other prizes were on offer! _________________ "Art challenges technology. Technology inspires the art." John Lasseter, Co-Founder of Pixar Animation Studios |

And apparently this is your first experience with their marketing activities.

Hey, DiscreetFX is worlds most reality based company. Any day now they are going to finnish their Amiga Inc takeover which is funded by proceedings from their movie funded by their celebrity friends. This will help them to crush remains of Microsoft which is going under anyday now due "insert version of windows" is so baaaaaad.
And everytime they eff up "It wasn't me, it was Ted/Intern/Accounting department/Whatever comes mind first".Last edited by Rose on 05-Feb-2021 at 12:40 PM.

It’s interesting you have time to complain about a free giveaway. Did you enter to win? _________________ Sent from my Quantum Computer. |

Original announcement was to be mid to late Jan 2021. That’s now been moved to end of Feb 2021 so not much longer. Getting sick really sucked but I managed to survive. Also, the Vampire V4 is no longer backordered with a long waiting list so winner should get their system even sooner than originally thought. Adding extra goodies like the AmigaKit Amiga joystick will just be icing on a gift cake. Last edited by DiscreetFX on 05-Feb-2021 at 06:32 PM.
