@Vector26: That's what it said ($0 cash and $55 retail) on my affidavit. This makes sense, because the sponsor isn't giving out cash prizes, but a retail (a voucher or a device) prize valued at $55.
Affidavit emails were sent out from velizar @ devpost . com. They went out on Monday, I believe. If you didn't get one, message me stefanie @ devpost . com. It's possible some may have bounced.
Any ideas what makes the echo dot "limited edition"? Is it a special color? Just curious since I saw that listed in the rules that it was limited edition.
So I have signed affidavit, do I need to send it back to velizar @ devpost . com as in mail it is written "you’ll need to return completed affidavits by Friday, July 13, 2018".
Hang tight, Vector26. The paperwork has a final due date of Friday, July 13th. Once we review all of the docs we receive, Amazon will start the process to distribute prizes. The affidavit noted that we ask you to allow 8-10 weeks. Typically, they arrive faster than that, but there are a lot of you! :)
Participant prizing is in the final stage. The Amazon team has the information needed and will begin fulfilling them very soon. I'm waiting for an estimated ship date and will let you all know once I have it.
@blackeye she did reply in regards to the issue multiple times. In Stefanie's original response she stated that the prizes would take between 8 and 10 weeks AFTER the affidavit was signed to get delivered. That was back in July so we still have till September to even start worrying about not getting the prize. I want to receive my prize as much as anyone, but no point in getting mad about it when they have already made multiple responses for how long the prizes will take to reach us.
It will be very helpful to all the participants if we could know when we will get the participation prize.It has been a about 8 weeks since we sent the signed affidavits.

@akshay what did it read on your affidavit? Like did it read 0$ cash prize or something but also worth retail 55$?

@Travis Banks, Usually the limited edition means it is a Normal Echo dot with a (Very cool looking) skin on it.

Hey Team,
Participant prizing is in the final stage. The Amazon team has the information needed and will begin fulfilling them very soon. I'm waiting for an estimated ship date and will let you all know once I have it.

I guess this was just a hoax. No participation prizes were to be given.
