For the 2024 kick off, we have gained support for over $5,000 in giveaways. First up, is Computer Connection throwing in the biggest giveaway for the fourth straight year with a full custom built PC. Next up is our newly forming Alumni Board of Advisory and MSI supplementing prize pools for Friday and Saturday events with additional giveaways to bring a total of over 30+ giveaways and door prizes.
Huge shoutout to Domino's, Insomnia Cookies, Raising Cane's Chicken, 2900 Student Apartments, and Red Bull for providing the food and drink!
We want to promote fellowship above all for our series of events so our prizing structure will have that same intent.
You can have up to five(5) entries for Sunday to increase your chances of winning. Here are the prerequisites to win:
- Current OU Student in our Discord (discord.gg/ougaming)
- Registered OU Gaming Club Access or VIP Member
- Physically Present Sunday
Here are ways to enter:
- (1 entry) Attend Friday programming (Does NOT require participation in tournaments)
- (1 entry) Attend Saturday programming (Does NOT require participation in tournaments)
- (1 entry) Attend Sunday programming (Entries ends at 6PM)
PLUS
- (1 entry) VIP Fall membership purchase
or
- (2 entries) VIP full-year membership purchase
For ECCI program students:
- GamerHaus students gain a passive +1 perk
- Dev students and Venue staff can gain +1 entry per VIP membership purchase referral (MAX +2)
HOW PRIZING SELECTION WILL WORK: All students can only win one giveaway despite having five entries. The quantity of entries just bolsters your chance to win anything overall. We will be tracking attendance then using a digital randomizer for selection on Sunday. As a student wins anything their name will be removed from the list completely. Students can pass if they have multiple entries but it will consume one of their entries by doing so.
Prizes will be put into four tiers with Grand Prize (PC) exclusive to undergrads.
The fine print: Sunday prizing is exclusive to OU students in attendance ONLY. The Sunday grand prize is exclusively for undergrad students at the request of the donors. Winner of the grand prize will have to fill out a W-9 for tax reporting and we will discuss it in depth before awarding the prize so there are no surprises. We will be taking pictures with winners throughout the weekend so please anticipate that especially for the bigger prizes.
