Reminder: Check to see if you have won in our weekly contest!


It has come to my attention that many winners have not claimed their prize in the LinuxQuestions.org weekly contest. The contest is sponsored by Affero and the prize is shipped to you 100% free of charge. To see if you have won and for details on how to claim your prize goto:

Here's a quick question - Do you use the affero username or the lq username?
I ask because my usual nick is "rossy" but someone was using it here hence "david_ross". My affero id is "rossy". One of the winners was "rossy". Is that me or not?

Cheers jeremy - keep up the good work.

PS. It was good to see the pictures of the server that the site runs on - I think it would be funny if all sites did that - I bet there would be some funny ones (microsoft.com on a 486 )

affero username

You have to go to affero, sign up and create a new username. Your lq username might be available in our system so give it a try. When you do have your new affero username you need to go in your usr cp under "edit profile" and submit it. If you have any problems just shoot me a email.
