Nope prizes are drawn randomly too.

So on Day 1 for example:

EAUK_Omni won FIFA 09 Xbox 360.

Nope, it reduces the chances of duplicate accounts and entries.

but I take it that the games are all sorted into their platforms, and you draw randomly from said platform, right?

So for example if I won on day 5 or something, you would choose between Mass Effect, Uefa 2008, or Sims Mansion and Garden stuff?
What if I get UEFA, I don't like football. I'm not complaining it's just I don't want to get something I don't want. I think I'll throw away this shovel....(

Okay say for example we have 5 different PC games and 10 people wanting PC games. Firstly we'd randomly select 5 people from the list of 10. Then we'd randomly assign what game they'll be receiving.

So it's like names picked out of that shiny hat that I know you have in the office? OK, I get it, if I get M&G stuff I'll be happy if I get the other games, I might Ebay them. =]
