Quote:
- What are you giving away?
100 OnePlus 3T phones. Check out MKBHD’s video for all the crispy details.
- Why is the first phone being given away on the 12th? Why not immediately?
MKBHD just finished shooting his video. We have to get all the phones shipped back to the dbrand HQ before we can begin disbursement. Once the first phone is given away, subsequent phones will be given away four times a day.
- How do I enter?
Simple – just follow dbrand, OnePlus, and MKBHD on Twitter.
If you were already following all three accounts before the giveaway went live, don't worry - you're already eligible to win.
- Seriously? That’s it?
Seriously. That’s it.
- How frequently are you drawing winners?
Four times a day.
- Is the giveaway open worldwide?
Always.
- How are winners selected?
Randomly, from a cross-section of @dbrandSkins, @OnePlus, and @MKBHD Twitter followers.
- How do entrants know it’s truly random?
We're using a custom Python script which was specifically programmed for this giveaway. It uses the Twitter Public Rest API to download a list of all @dbrandSkins, @OnePlus, and @MKBHD Twitter followers.
Once the full lists have been loaded, the script generates a list of IDs which exist on all three lists. This ensures that the potential winner is following all three accounts.
From this pool of unique account IDs, a random entry is picked using a randomly generated seed based on the NumPy project. This random pick is the resulting winner.
For every subsequent winner selection, the script will run again. This triggers the Twitter Public API follower IDs fetch again. The script will download the newest followers and keep going until it reaches the followers which were downloaded during the previous run. What this does is save us from having to download a full list of followers every time a winner is selected – while also ensuring that everyone is included and has an equal chance of winning for each random draw.
- How will you get in touch with winners?
Via Twitter, of course. We’ll hit you up via DM if you’ve won.
- How do I avoid being scammed?
First off, use common sense. If someone DMs you from an account called @clbrandSkins asking for your password and credit card information, it’s obviously a scam. Don't reply to any tweets or DMs saying you've won unless they come from the official @dbrandSkins. You'll know it's us if you see a blue Verified checkmark. Furthermore, never give out your credit card information or Twitter password to anyone... especially not to any account asking you to “cover the shipping fees.” We'll never ask for this. The best way to avoid getting scammed is to check this page when we tweet that a new winner has been announced. If you see your name listed under Winners, click the link to ensure it's actually your Twitter account (and not someone with the same display name). If it really is your account, congratulations! Check your Twitter DMs for further instructions.
- How are prizes shipped?
All prizes are shipped via FedEx with tracking. If you win, you’ll receive the tracking number once your prize has been shipped.
- If I win, will I have to pay anything to receive the prize (shipping costs, duties, taxes, etc.)?
Of course not. Everything is pre-paid.
- If I win, can I use my existing SIM card on the device?
Yep. Every device we’re shipping is fully unlocked and can be used anywhere.
- If I win, do I have to do anything once I receive the device?
Tweet out a photo and tag @MKBHD, @OnePlus, and @dbrandSkins to verify that you’ve received your prize.
- If I send you hundreds of thousands of tweets begging for a device, will it improve my odds of winning?
No. Please stop. We won't acknowledge or reply to anyone begging to be picked as a winner. Selection is 100% random.
- Is dbrand really run by robots?
