First, thanks to everyone who joined in our “Merry Tweetmas Contest“. We received over 600 entries for Twitter, over 100 entries for the blog and over 500 entries in the comments. Second, apologies for the delay in announcing the winners. Didn’t expect it to be this huge. Third, let’s give out the prizes already!
The picks for the question “If you’re stuck in an island with a phone and only have one call left, who would you call and why?” are:
1. L.R. for calling his kabit.
2. Bruno for calling his derma.
3. RHO for calling Kris Aquino.
4. Onynz for dialing 8-MCDO.
5. Ronnie for calling his lawyer.
6. DeaDPiPoL for calling his friend “Mike”.
7. Edward for calling 0918.497.01.74 (Note: I no longer use this number, dude.)
8. Marvin for calling the National Defense secretary. (Dude, Gibo is no longer with the DND.)
9. Pamela Castro for calling her mother. (MMK moment, huh?)
10. Kiko for calling me out on the prizes for non-blogger and Tweeple. (So, may Twitter account ka na?)
You each get a Php500USD 9INR 722EUR 8CNY 62 prepaid call card from Globe.

How to claim your prizes?
1) Go to this page and completely fill out the form.
2) You will receive an email for confirmation and another notice once your prize has been shipped.
Congratulations to all the 62 winners! There might be duplicate winners here so I’ll post an update to replace them with new ones.
Note: A lot of entries in the blog raffle were disqualified due to incomplete requirements. Next time, read the simple steps carefully. For duplicate entries submitted in the comments, only the last entry is counted in the randomizer.
Want more?
There’s lots more to come. We have another contest on Monday the 28th (which is sponsored by Coca-Cola and is a separate one) so watch out for that too. We’re giving away a brand new 8GB iPod Nano video on that one.
Of course, this round of giveaways will not be possible if not for our major sponsor, Globe Telecom. We have more, as in hundreds more, to giveaway so don’t lose hope! Just subscribe to the email alerts or follow me on Twitter to get first dibs of the upcoming ones.
We’ll resume with Round #2 of the Giveaways on the first week of 2010. Merry Christmas to everyone!

Thanks YugaTech and Globe! I just got my new Modu Phone… I love it! :)
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! ;)
sonny_true says:
Sir Yuga, I know Globe is your sponsor but their Globe Tattoo prepaid service has turned from good to bad here in Hinigaran, Negros Occidental, my connection keeps being cut off after 20 to 53 seconds. Even after reconnecting within a few seconds of the cut off, globe deducts P5 from my load, ergo, after a few seconds accumulated to a few minutes of connection and disconnection, ubos na load ko. Dont you think this is plain robbery by Globe?
Abe Olandres says:
@sonny_true – I think you can get refunds. Just message @talk2globe on Twitter about your problem and they’d gladly help you.
Dy says:
Thanks Abe and Globe! Already got my new Modu phone.. May you have a prosperous year ahead! =)
jm says:
