LTT and AMD team up to giveaway TWO 9070 XT Nitro+ GPUs!!!

Use a VPN and get busy. 😛 You can use my address/contact info, if you win I'll ship it to you.
 
Thanks OP, snuck in my few entries on the final day. With nearly 12M total entries, I probably shouldn't have bothered. 😛

Weird stuff with the back end configuration of this contest. First, they want you to follow accounts on X and they verify it. I had already allowed "Gleam Competition App" as a connected app.
But now, I had to allow "Gleam Contests" too. Okay, fine.

I received 50 entries for following @ AMDRadeon.
But for both @ amdgaming and @ AMDRyzen , the contest app says "Sorry, throwaway X accounts are not allowed."

Just buy a powerball lottery ticket if you like to gamble with zillion to 1 odds.

Costs a few bucks, but not nearly as much work as this stuff. 🙂

Probably coz you are not a verified Twitter user (didn't pay to identify as human). I had one of my Twitter accounts blocked by X for this reason as I was using it only for entering competitions.

I don't really care, but it's weird that it was fine with awarding entries for one of the three X accounts.

Also weird that today, "Gleam Contests" has disappeared from the connected apps pane in my Xitter settings. 🤷‍♂️

If it wasn't for these contests I never win, I'd never visit X. 😛
