    How ironic, without intending to, I downloaded the manual for this phone to answer a question that earned me the rep to get my 3-fold chance of winning. Roll on Monday. Fingers crossed!

  • Ah good, it's Monday 24th. So you'll be needing my address to post the phone to won't you? ;)

Congratulations to Mike Stride (@stridermike) of Southport, UK, who was one of 272 people to enter by RT-ing the @STackHQ contest announcement. Stride did not triple his chances of winning by earning 5 rep on the Android site. If he didn't have Android questions before, the UK citizen may come up with a few as he tries to get his brand new US-locked Samsung Galaxy SII up and running!

Stay tuned for another Android contest in the coming weeks.

  • Does Mike Stride have an account? A Google search doesn't reveal any instance of "stridermike" on this site except for this post

  • @SamTheBrand where there any winners announced for the previous competition? Think I remember seeing some new names during that week.

  • @KyleCronin - As far as I know, Mike Stride does not have an account. But that was never a prerequisite of the contest.

  • @SamTheBrandΨ isn't that first under 'The Rules'?

  • @KyleCronin - Yikes. You're right. From what I wrote, it may be interpreted that owning a SE profile is a prerequisite. I should have been more clear, and in future contests I will be.

    @SamTheBrandΨ FWIW, I think that having an account definitely should be a prerequisite to win. The tweet should probably also mention that the link has the rules, and not simply a way to triple your chances
