arg0, I think it all turned out pretty good. Gunna be a few smiling faces there.

Ordered 

Congrats to the winners!

If you did not win, are based in Europe, and would still like to test an ST Arche, please let me know by posting here.

To summarise, here is the list of winners:

Skilled players (in alphabetical order):

• NextLevel
• patrickhrdlicka
• SmackDAT
  
• VictorK

Qualified reviewers:

• h0n1g
• Magic_M

Lucky testers:

• zeon
• ohwell
• Kangp

I am sending your names to Nexy. As soon as I get instructions about ordering, I will PM them to you. In the meantime, if you didn't yet, please send me your shipping address. I will forward it to Nexy, so that they will be able to cross-check whether the people claiming the free blades are indeed the winners.

Magic_M,
Jein (for non-German speakers: jein is a German non-word, contraction of ja=yes and nein=no; it's used to mean "yes and no").
Your analysis is true in principle, however see my post above: hunkeelin did not post any previous reviewing experience and was not admitted to the "qualified reviewers" pool. So there are only three candidates left (you, fatt and h0n1g) and you all win, regardless of the numbers you chose. Fatt withdrew and left his place to SmackDAT.

Oh, well...

If nobody changed their number since I recorded them, the lucky testers are:

zeon	333
ohwell	501
Kangp	642

Give me some time to double-check, though.

OK, that's it. No more participants. Draw is in a few minutes. Good luck to all!

Lucky 1700

Hi arg0, does that mean I am able to test this blade? If so, I would like to thank fatt as everyone loves trying a new blade and I will leave a video review once I receive it. Will be trying Aurus Prime on both sides and comparing to my ZJK ALC

Sorry to hear that, fatt. Hope it clears up and that you can join soon for another test.
Since you wrote earlier:

fatt wrote: if SmackDat can't be a reviewer then he gets my seat; I saw him playing.

I will indeed give your seat to SmackDAT, if you win the draw. As I see it there are currently only three qualified reviewers, one of them being you and the other two h0n1g and Magic_M. SmackDAT is at least about ex aequo with the fourth-ranked USATT-rated candidate and the only non-US player who sent videos of himself so that we could judge.
Stay tuned.

...aaand the winners are...

After having checked on the official USATT Rating of Jan 25, I can announce the selected "skilled players"!
In order of application:

• patrickhrdlicka
• NextLevel
• VictorK

Threshold rating for being selected was "about 2000".

Congratulations to the winners!!
I will send you further instructions on how to claim the Arche blade. In the meantime, please send me a PM with your full address, so that I can forward it to Nexy. This will be used to check that the people claiming the free Arche blades are actually you!

Thanks to the others for participating in the "skilled players" group. If you were not selected, you can still apply as "lucky tester" or if you wish, or as "qualified reviewer", if you think you qualify. Those based in Europe will also have the opportunity to join the European testing session.

PS. Deadline for participating as "qualified reviewer" is in about 12 hours and there are only 4 candidates so far. That reads like a 75% winning chance!
