If you successfully claimed a key you will be sent the details soon - I think it says this on the page. You would have seen this message:

"Congratulations! You have won one of the 25 beta keys for the Football Manager Live beta test.

You will be contacted by Sports Interactive via a private message on this site with instructions for what to do next.

The beta test begins on June 18th.

Please ensure the e-mail address on your Eurogamers user profile is up to date."

I think rauper's link is trying to tell you to check the "Claimed Giveaways" part on your profile.

If that's the case then I didn't get one even tho I was told I'd won. Sigh.

Ticked the boxes, hit the button, "This giveaway has finished!"

I assume this means I didn't get one?

"Cheerio,

For some reason, the fact this is signed 'Beaker, the Eurogamer Robot' pisses me off even more. F YOU EUROGAMER!

-------------------------------

*sigh* ditto here then. If it's true though I think that's unfair, sending out congrats messages to peeps who missed out. I was all chuffed too, maybe if we asked nicely, those who did get congrats messages (I count prolly 5-10 extra) get places anyway. Surely SI wouldn't mind? I just think it's a little unfair to those who thought they were in but aren't due to a technical glitch

I would have thought they would have a system which only sent out 25 messages and after the 25th, said "sorry you didnt get one"...can someone from EuroGamer clear this up?

What a giveaway! Congratulations YOU'VE WON!!

Oh wait, no you haven't. Next they'll be telling us to phone up a premium hotline to claim a lottery win in the Spanish lottery last year...
