After almost 4 months of successful operations in Australia, Omnicoins has decided to hold a competition to encourage some additional feedback from our customers. This feedback is very important to both our reputation, and our plans for the future. So for the remainder of December, any customer leaving feedback for us in our main forum thread will go into the running to win a prize of 7.5 BTC. Over the same time period, any customer leaving feedback for us on our bitcoinfeedback page will go into the running to win a prize of 2.5 BTC.

The rules:
- to enter our 7.5 BTC draw, entrants should leave feedback for us in our main forum thread, which can be found here.
- to enter our 2.5 BTC draw, entrants should leave feedback for us on our bitcoinfeedback page, which can be found here.
- entrants are permitted to put one entry into the 7.5 BTC draw and one entry into the 2.5 BTC draw.
- entrants must have bought bitcoins from us at some point over the last 4 months. Winners will be required to provide us with a valid order ID and one piece of information from the order (date, amount, price etc).  
- feedback can be either positive or negative.
- the competition closes on 31st December, with the winners to be announced on 1st January.
- the winners will be randomly selected as outlined below.

Selecting the winners:
Two randomly generated decimal numbers have been selected prior to the competition start, and are stored in a text string inside the following SHA-256 hash: e98ba4431664f3d450e42ac75ada9fb71814eee11aadacb14efc13e83a261967. The text string includes two numbers: the first being the winning number for the 7.5 BTC draw, and the second being the winning number for the 2.5 BTC draw. The message will be revealed once the competition closes, so entrants can verify the winning numbers. All entrants will be assigned a number (called the feedback number) in the order in which they left feedback. The feedback numbers will be assigned separately for each draw. The feedback numbers will be put through the following formula: feedback number / total number of entries.  For each competition, the calculated value closest to the winning number will win the prize!
 
Thanks and good luck!
