EPTHappy New Year!!! By the way, those of you who may have seen this on Reddit or Youtube, I've extended the giveaway to January 10 so I can share it with Team Liquid as well
Lately I have been talking about how I am excited to be in Korea and how I want to be a source for bringing the Korean scene to the community at large.. I started a thread asking for advice on what people wanted to see, and I really appreciate all the feedback I got (a lot of people wanted to see non-SC2 stuff in Korea, and I'm already working on a Vlog showing the Korean palaces in Seoul). Well, in the spirit of the holidays, I'm also going to literally give some of you something from the Korean scene!
Some of you have been giving me feedback on what kind of swag you would want me to give away, and now I am finally here to announce my holiday giveaway that I've been planning and putting together for some time! I'll first get straight down to what I'll be giving away, including:
* 2 DT35 Keyboards Signed by SlayerS MMA
* 2 DT35 Keyboards Signed by EG HuK
* 2 Mouse pads Signed by FXO Leenock
* 2 Mouse pads Signed by IM MVP
* 2 Mouse pads Signed by Tastosis (and/or maybe some signed handsomenerd.com stuff)
* Diablo 3 Beta Key
* Mouse pads or other stuff signed by me if people want them instead of the other swag
* And a partridge in a pear tree
If you're wondering what a QSENN DT35 keyboard is..

Now, I've already given away a few of these things to some of my current fans on youtube, twitter, and facebook... but I'm sure you're wondering.. how can I get one of these?! Well, there are a few ways to be eligible.
Firstly, I want to give back to the community, and to those of you who may be a fan of mine but that I haven't had a chance to connect with in some way yet... so I'm letting everyone know that I'll be giving away some more stuff in about 1 week (originally through the 12th day of Xmas, but has been extended now), by selecting random Youtube subscribers, Twitter followers, and Facebook likers!
So what do you have to do? Simply pick your social media of choice and sign up at:
* http://www.twitter.com/moletrap
* http://www.youtube.com/moletrapSC2
* http://www.facebook.com/moletrapSC2
Yes, that's all you have to do, and I'll be picking random people from my lists..
It would be jolly of you to follow the folks on twitter you want to win stuff from as well: @SlayerSMMA, @LorangerChris, @sc2immvp, @FXOLeenock, @artosis, @callmetasteless, @bcolayco
Don't like social media? Or hate my guts but still want to win? I'm not trying to be pushy or exclusive here! A second way to maybe get some stuff is that I'll also be streaming at http://www.twitch.tv/moletrap and giving away to random stream viewers over the next week...
AND... I'll be giving away one of the items (maybe more) to someone in this thread! So as to avoid people spamming just to win, and to make this perhaps useful.. if your comment is randomly selected, to win it must be at least one of A) a creative haiku about the person(s) whose signature you want to win (or about Diablo), B) a story of how eSports has brought people together, or C) something meaningful related to any other discussions that may arise (like complimenting a haiku or discussing someone's story) - this thread doesn't have to be just entirely entries, but I'm going to double check to make sure you are in the spirit of the thread (not spamming or insulting other entries) before awarding anything. So just have fun writing and talking about your poems and stories
Check out the related youtube video or imgur gallery for a closer look at the keyboards/mousepads.
I hope you all enjoy each other's poems and inspirational comments.. remember, this community is awesome.. be excellent to each other, not just during the holidays!

Starting January 10 when I wake up KST, people will be randomly selected (random.org number generator) from a list of people subscribed on a given social media site and will be contacted on that site. They will have 3 days to get back to me, since I know a lot of accounts are older and not really active anymore and I don't want to wait around forever. If someone hasn't gotten back to me in 3 days I'll select someone new from that list and contact them, and they'll have 3 days, etc. People who I have already selected before the contest started will have until the end of the contest, January 10, to get back to me. People who are already subscribed/following before this will be just as eligible as new fans. On a first come, first serve, basis those selected will get to pick which item they want most, and anyone can ask for a mousepad or something else signed by me if they prefer that to what is still available. Following people who signed stuff on twitter is not required but highly recommended. Partridge in pear tree not actual prize. No guarantees on when you'll get stuff but I'm going to try to get everything in the mail at least by the end of January.
