I also think it's funny that people who have joined two days ago win. While the first group of winners don't win as much as the later prizes, it's still a shame that all of the other major contributers to the site don't get what they deserve. ;]I'd love to win as much as the next guy, but I don't post much or contribute a lot but I do use this site daily for my Warcraft needs. It seems that doesn't matter, and I'd probably turn down my prize to someone else if they were a major contributer.Anyways, congrats to both of the winners thus far and good luck to everyone else! ;]
I know this has been said already but congratulations to the current and future winners and good luck to everyone :)
We have this conversation more or less every time there's a contest.Over 95% of Wowhead's users have never signed up. They may be hardcore Wowhead users, who link the site on their blogs or their guild websites, or who go to the mat for us on the official forums—but for whatever reason they don't have an account. Those people deserve a chance to win, too. I know—I used to be one of them. Why should someone who registered an account three weeks ago, doesn't even play WoW anymore, and doesn't do anything but spam obnoxious posts in the PvP or Randomness forums take priority?If McDonald's is having a contest, they're not going to restrict the possible winners to people who visit McDonald's more than three times a week. It seems kind of rude, you know?I understand the frustration. We're doing our best to try and reward our most dedicated users in other ways. Don't forget that some contest winners are still around. ;)

Gratz to the winners so far!
I want a murloc now!Grunty the murloc marinehttp://www.wow.com/2009/05/11/grunty-the-murloc-marine-appears-on-the-ptr/Give me! o.O
Man I can wait for tomorrow and see who wins the big first prize! PS3 IMO.
I wish I could enter, seeing that the grand prize gets awarded on my birthday ^^ but I'm not old enough yet =P Ah well...
I know I have to do the fanboy thing, but dear god it would be so cool to win the trip to BlizzCon. I don't think anyone would disagree with that. Be really cool, I haven't had a vacation 7 years... /sigh
You know what the real issue with signing up this late in the game...Isn't that you look like a newbie and here just for prizes...Isn't that you haven't uploaded and contributed to Wowhead (for shame... =P )Its that all the cool names have been picked!
When are Canadians going to be able to win stuff? :(
