The list is comprehensive to the best of my knowledge, however, if you feel that there are some discrepencies in the same, please feel free to write back to me.
I will be mailing you on your registered id regarding dispatch of your prize.
dear gaurav it will be really sad to leave this contest with such a ending comment. Still what happens here is that the Fastest Finger first wins. net Connection plays a vital role.
Also There has been instances where there has been more than 5 correect answers within a minute.
However the prize cannot be given to all. There has been instances where it was predeclared that there will be 2 or 3 winners for a specific question but as you must have seen there are hardly 3-4 ppl playing the contest actively and atleast 2-3 reach the 2 Club even if there is just one prize for each question.
so giving out more than one prize will surely create a problem bcoz they will run out of participants.
And if they can measure these in milliseconds I bet there would have been more than 10 such instances. Atleast 2 have happened with me myself. I am quick as you know. If you check out the earlier days when i was highly active...
We play here more for fun and excitement n not for winning.
Please accept it as a part of the game. Sunny

I'm sure you guys are not going to answer it! Because you don't have the answer for it, right??
Okay, I will leave this thread with a confirmation that the judges indeed had DOUBLE STANDARDS with their judgements!! Thanx and you can keep the final prize with you!!
Go to post 6246 and 6247. Tell me what is the difference between both of us answers. I'm sure that these were posted at SAME time. If eBay will review their clock history, the milliseconds will even match. Because I was refreshing the page every second and both appeared instantaneously!! Are you getting it....
IF I search this thread in its entirity, I can show you countless instantes where the prizes were given to three or two winners if they answered within the same minute. But, here even the seconds were colliding. So why am i not the WINNER??????
"Why do we have two rules for the same situation?? Sometimes 2 or 3 winners or sometimes only one and what is the logical factor behind deciding the winner??????? if the answers were DITTO same and were posted at the same time.....????"
Can somebody from Top management look at post 6246 and 6247 and tell me WHAT IS THE TIME DIFFERENT BETWEEN THEM???????? Perhaps a supervisor or a manager.
Please know that I can show you previous intances where the prizes have been awarded to 2 winners and even 3 winners when they have answered at same time!!!!!
PLEASE REVIEW MY REQUESST. I have many hopes from eBay management!!!!!
This is soooo frustrating. I have to admit that this is not the kind of support I was looking from eBay Pinks. The didn't ever ever review the actual post.
THEY CANNOT BE JUDGES to judge who the real WINNER is!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
the only suggestion is to have short spells of 2-4 days of such contest .. instead of a strech. ths will ensure greater participation and more interest.
Regards Sunny

Folks...I also want to thank you all for being such a wonderful audience. It was the best time I had till now on Community Boards. I hope you guys enjoyed it, had fun, made some new friends and learnt a bit as well.
I hope to keep seeing you all on Community boards. if you have any suggestions on eBay, feel free to post here and we will try to get an answer as soon as possible.
Sapana, I have seen that the preizes earlier has been distributed that way. Please can you go back on the thread and review the question and my answer for 'Related Searches'. Today only you said that there were two winners who answered at same time.... Why are you referring to community.... They have won their prizes and no body is ready to support me....
