Ben-DutkaUpdate: I figure most know this by now, but I should make it clear- To be eligible to win, you must be a US citizen, or at least have a US mailing address to which the prize can be sent. Sorry, but customs is just a colossal pain in the ass.
Original Story:
If you've got Resident Evil 6 on your holiday wish list and your wish doesn't come true, don't cry…we're giving you another chance to snag it.
If you didn't already know, we typically send out a newsletter twice a week; it features ten of the hottest headlines along with a brief summary of the top stories and content, including reviews, previews, editorials, and features. It's a great way to catch up.
Thing is, we're doing a server transition for the newsletter, so even if you're already a subscriber, you'll have to sign up again if you want to continue to receive it. To help encourage that, we're doing a very simple giveaway: Sign up to get our newsletter and you'll automatically be entered into a random drawing. The prize? A copy of Resident Evil 6 that comes in a cool Biohazard steelbook case, and even a RE6 Origin of the Species t-shirt (Large, tan color). The deadline for signing up is December 31, 2012 and we'll be sure to remind you on a weekly basis. Hopefully, we'll get a bunch of newcomers, too!
A few seconds and bam, you're in the running. Can't make it much easier than that, right?
*testing, testing*…
… The avatar issue is fixed! It's working it's working! Woohoo 🙂 I am no longer without face!
Give whomever responsible a grandiose hug, bear sized, from me Ben. 🙂

So who's the fire giant holding the fence post?
Ah – that is the *original* Beamboom! My very first game character named Beamboom, and the father of all Beamboom-profiles thereafter.
It's a screenshot from Anarchy Online, a mmorpg. A nice sunset appeared once I was out in the wilds so I ran up on a hill and took that screenie. 🙂
Dan, our tech guy. He fixed it quick; he's the one to thank. 🙂
Yay! I have an avatar!
It's not as good one though as it's hard to see (if anyone is interested it's the bar in Space Quest and the alien is saying: "Hello little white droid"). I'll have to find another…

Oh, and thank you Dan!
Dan the man,
I'm your biggest fan!
You are right, that was an easy sign up! Hope I win, RE6 is on my must buy list! 😉
I tried to sign up again and it just says I'm already a member. So…. :
Then your email is already in the system and you're already eligible. 🙂
yay
Signed up!
Good luck to everyone.
Ben,
Not sure if I'm still good to go, but I already got the last newsletter a couple days ago,
So has the server been changed over since your last NL, & I'll still have to re-sign up again?
You have to sign up again if you want to continue to receive the newsletter after December 31.
Ok Ben, thanks.
Well that's good to hear since I'm just in school for a year. I can just use my brother's address in the states.
damn customs…
