Does this count as an upset?
BGAAlright, so I planned to make a meme for the giveaway winner post, but no time and I'm sure many of you are anxious to know who won.
So without further ado, the winner is..... @nealkfrank!!! Congrats for finally winning and we're all looking forward to hearing your game selection! :D
Neal was also 5th in number of contributions and held 8% of the total entries (2159) while the top three contributors together had around 50% of the entries (Marshwiggle92, BenjaminK, JamesReid860--I would tag you all but don't want to give you a surprise while you're driving for Thanksgiving)
I guess this counts as an upset to some degree? :)
Edit: @Skurvy5 Here's a breakdown of the results
Total Entries = 2159
Top 3 Contributors (52% of total entries)
- JamesReid860 - 410 entries (19%)
- BenjaminK - 380 entries (18%)
- Marshwiggle92 - 315 entries (15%)
Neakfrank - 173 entries (8%)
Another interesting stat--as of today, every single one of the top 6 contributors from this round including Skurvy5 (271 entries) and sdirrane (152 entries) has won a giveaway!
In the future (not sure when), I might consider revising the rule to increase the odds a bit more for everyone else but let's see how the next several ones go. And as always, thanks everyone for participating and having fun!

Thank you so so much! It has been a privilege being a part of this community! The last couple of contests I had plan of what game I would go with, this time I totally did not expect to win so I did not have a plan! You can say it feels like an upset to me!
I am currently going back and forth on Le Havre and Concordia as the main games!

You missed an "l" from the winner name :)
I don think it is an upset, maybe someon under 50 entries would. But the winners came out really fair so far :D
