Live 8

[prepare4trouble]

Does anyone know whether they have started sending out the text messages saying if you've won Live 8 tickets?

There I was having an extremely boring day consisting mostly of watching downloads while occasionally attempting to write and wishing it would stop raining, when I get a text message. Apparently I have won. Call me a pessimist, but my first thought was "That's a cruel joke to be playing. Some people might actually believe it." So I go and show it to my mum, who goes on the site, it looks genuine, it's the official site and everything. So I put in the number they sent me, I tell them my address and everything and select where I want to pick up the tickets from. It still looks genuine. I get an e-mail confirmation. It all still looks genuine. I am very confused. I don't win things, you see. Never have. Except once when I was 8 and I won a colouring in competition and got some Sylvanain Bears. But apart from that...

Is this real? It can't be...can it?

If you want to play safe you can go overboard and take someone with you when you pick up the tickets, and a copy of the e-mail and a copy of the website (with the source code maybe) to show someone if it turns out all screwy.

It all sounds quite elaborate if it is a fake. Hey, don't worry, probably real. Well done kiddo :-D

Well, I have to pick up the tickets from a shop in town, and a friend of my mum's checked out the site, it's owned by the right people...

Oh my god, I think it might be real...
