Supreme Commander mod winners

Published on 17th April 2007 by bit-tech Staff

And the winner is... Nathan Langford!

Today is the day that bit-tech readers and Supreme Commander fans alike have been waiting for. It has been marked on the calender for weeks. Forum posts have been flying back & forth in a Simpsons-eque "have I won yet? Have I won yet? Have I won yet?" fashion.

Since the early hours of this morning there has been furious F5 button mashing to see if this very news has been posted, as "winners will be announced on Tuesday 17th April".

But before we draw the winners let's find out if you had the correct answers. We asked the following questions:

Question 1: The creative genius behind Supreme Commander is Chris....?

Taylor
Tarrant
Rock

Question 2: There are three warring factions in the game: Cybran Nation, Aeon Illuminate and the United Earth ....?

Alliance
Knitting Circle
Federation

Question 3: Supreme Commander is the spiritual successor to which RTS classic?

Total Annihilation
Doom

How did you do? We had a huge number of entrants and not surprisingly there weren't many who got it wrong.
(Go on, tell 'em who won already! -ed)

Without any further ado, we can announce that the winner of the is.... <drumroll>... Nathan Langford

Of course, we also have five runner's up prizes consisting of a copy of the game, a kick-ass T-shirt, and one of three Limited Edition mosaic lithographs. These go to:

Munir Choudhury
Gloria Dornin
Dave Gullen
Adrian Hamer
James Richley

All winners will be contacted via email shortly. If your name matches a winner yet you have not received an email please check your spam filter. Questions can be posted in this forum thread.

Once again, a special thanks to all sponsors involved in this promotion. Part 1 of the Supreme Commander worklog is already online; keep an eye on the site for Part 2 coming soon!

Congrats to all the winners.

ozstrike 17th April 2007, 18:36

:( Congrats guys

Congratulations Nathan!
Now mate... have you really got space for a 6ft ACU? See, I've got this ACU shaped space in the corner of my room... ;)

crazy55 17th April 2007, 18:49

:'( congrats guys :'(

ralph.pickering 17th April 2007, 18:55

Congrats all, especially Nathan. I'm not sure what I would have done if I'd won it. Great spec but not practical in a tiny London flat with 2 people and 4 bikes already competing for floor space. So just as well really.

But Nathan, just in case you really wanted a 6ft ACU to fit your own components in, I've got a computer case shaped spot in my room that could house the homeless bits :)

That's about the 50th competition this month that I didn't win *sighs*
Worst part imo is that these competitions are open to anyone, is there any possibility that there will be in the future competitions which are only open to long standing forum members?

calnen 17th April 2007, 19:02

*sad sigh*

Congrats to the winners :) (See? Watch me put on a brave face!)

Nath 17th April 2007, 19:03

Congratulations to the winners. :)

Spaceraver 17th April 2007, 19:06

Gratz. :D

Major 17th April 2007, 19:11

Well done

amdathlonfx 17th April 2007, 19:16

oasked 17th April 2007, 19:26

zndkwin 17th April 2007, 19:46

green with envy

Now, would the winner please post pictures of his new rig for everyone to see???

choupolo 17th April 2007, 20:00

Thanks for the runner up goodies Bit-tech! Congrats to all. Haven't had a chance to play SupCom yet so this is awesome. And the lithograph is going straight up on my wall!

Of course the SupCom mod is the coolest thing I've ever seen and I also conveniently have a perfectly shaped space in the corner of my room... in case you want to swap Nathan! :D

And yes, we expect pictures!

mjred88 17th April 2007, 20:03

Congratulations to the winners

If you don't need it, send it to me :D

Yeah, certainly a possibility. The thing with this compo is that was, from the start, a THQ promotion, not a "bit-tech" thing. Sure, we did all the work but it's their baby.

Tim definitely has plans for you guys - don't worry.

OMG! A bit-tech semi newbie! He shouldn't win!

Only joking! Well done to you and all of the other winners!

DougEdey 17th April 2007, 21:39

I think GoTall should be able to visit the future location of his baby and make sure it's fit for purpose, kinda like when you rehome a pet.

Delphium 17th April 2007, 21:42

Congrats Nathan and all runners up :)

Lazlow 17th April 2007, 21:56

Can you post the names of the select few that got any of the questions wrong? ;)

Don't feel bad man. I entered a contest over at Kotaku that was insanely hard (only 168 or so people got all the answers right out of thousands of submissions) and didn't win squat.

Congrats to all though!

tEfLoN 18th April 2007, 01:44

Does he also have the right to reject the prospective home in favor of keeping it for himself? :p

The_Templar 22nd April 2007, 11:30

Wow!!! I won!!! I just got back to uni from a coupla weeks at home (no internet there), and was REALLY surprised to find that little email in my account :-)

I will indeed be posting pictures once I get my hands on it.. According to my email though, it's not finished yet, so I guess we'll all have to wait a bit.. :-)

Thank you bit-tech! No way I could afford the parts, let alone such a cool case on a student budget!! Wohoo!!! :-)

Also: good job on the case GoTaLL, because I've been looking at the work in progress and it looks awesome! (also, HUGE!!)

Do I have space for it? No! Will I find space for it, even if it means sleeping on my couch? Yes!!

ozstrike 22nd April 2007, 11:38
