I'm probably too late so I won't bother about entering, don't really have the internet connection to play it anyway.
Hopefully with all of these copies of Fury going out Auran might have enough users to create an Australian dedicated server that they were hoping for. _________________

Yeah, an Aussie dedicated server would be a great thing to have. A shame they were unable to implement it originally..

Unfortunately you were too late, when I posted at 11:17am all the copies had been allocated according to the article. _________________ RIP Buddha 19/10/1952 - 03/01/2004

What time was the 1000th copy secured so people know if they roughly got in or not? _________________ Shin J Leon.

The 1000th entry was at 12:25AM, a few people did enter incorrectly so about 1:00am i would say all copies went.

Quote From the Financial Review 11/12/2007:
With poor sales of the 'Fury' video game, developer Auran announced this week it would cut staff in its 60-strong development team, with only a core team remaining to develop additional content for the game. $15 million was spent over three years in developing the game, with the Queensland company securing additional funding from the National Australia Bank to assist in the international marketing of the game. The game however, failed to live up the hype generated by Auran, with it debuting at No. 6 on retail analyst firm Gfk Australia's local top-selling PC Games list, prior to dropping out of the top 10 the following week.

Just out of curiosity, were we still supposed to put our name on top of our address even though there was a name box?
I put my name in the address box again anyway but just checking.. _________________

Wouldn't have thought so.
If we were supposed to.....that's probably a first, as far as comps I've entered!
The incorrect entries will relate to the multi choice question

No, this time you weren't supposed to your name in the address box. But it doesn't matter if you did.

There was a specific box to put your name in right? I don't remember.
I was lucky enough to enter like 5 mins after the comp started. _________________

At the time I remember looking back and there was 200-300 views only, I wonder if that would have deemed me of securing a copy
I gotta say though looking at reviews from places, not looking to good. Although it is free, so what the hey. _________________ xfire = andylulz

Fun fact. Here's the percentages of location that people selected;
Perth - 0.49%
London - 0.30%
Brisbane - 97.75%
Auran Island - 1.46%

even funnier given the wording of the article.
| Quote: | | To celebrate the December 14th launch of Fury's huge new add-on Age of The Chosen, Brisbane based developer Auran has kindly offered to give away 1000 copies of Fury to PALGN readers. |
