Keep making threads, it has no bearing on when you will get your payment. There is a small handful of people waiting on their payments because of our accounting department - as you can see, most people have received their winnings, including Jayvis who got his $5000 cheque... I think you and 3 or 4 other people are still waiting because of the screw-ups.
We have built our reputation over a decade and it won't be tarnished over a couple weeks and $100 won in a contest.
Don't bother apologizing for anything or holding your traffic hostage waiting for this payment - no matter what you do, you will STILL GET YOUR $100.
I've explained and apologized why there's a delay and I've gone out of my way to resolve the situation, and once again I'll go one step further:
Do you want an extra $100? I will personally send you $100 for having to wait, $100 out of MY pocket on behalf of python/dollarmachine.
If you choose not to 'trust' us over this, then by all means go ahead, there is 1000 other sponsors out there.

All of this is because of the number of times i've been told WHEN we will get our winnings and then the slip-ups, mishaps, screwups and what ever else fits in there delaying things. Maybe in your next contest you should state when the prizes will be distributed...i'm pretty sure that will prevent something like this happening.
When i give someone a date i'm going to pay them, by hook or by crook, it's going to be done. I'm pissed because, being the multi-national (or what ever) corporation that you say you are, i can't understand all of these problems issuing winnings...maybe your accounting dept needs to be evaluated?
An extra 100 for the wait, sure, i'll take it, at least that way i can get my project(s) off the back burner and sent to the designer stage. Thanks!
Holding traffic hostage? I don't do that...as you can check for yourself you're still getting traffic from me...i'm not dumb enough to miss out on making conversions.
More threads, no worries...i'm exhausted beating this dead horse and moving on.
