Giveaways

Ten (10) iPhone X smartphones. Check out Jon's video for more details.

Simple - just subscribe to both dbrand and TLD on YouTube.

If you were already subscribed to both channels before the giveaway went live, don't worry - you're already eligible to win.

Seriously. That's it.

All ten winners will be drawn on January 8th, 2018 (exactly two weeks from the date Jon's video was published).

Always.

Randomly, from a cross section of dbrand and TLD YouTube subscribers.

We're using a custom Python script which was specifically programmed for this giveaway. It uses the YouTube Data API to download a list of all /dbrand and /TLD YouTube subscribers.

Once the full lists have been loaded, the script generates a list of IDs which exist on both lists. This ensures that the potential winner is subscribed to both channels.

From this pool of unique account IDs, a random entry is picked using a randomly generated seed based on the NumPy project. This random pick is the resulting winner.

For every subsequent winner selection, the script will run again. This triggers the YouTube Data API subscriber IDs fetch again. The script will download the newest subscribers and keep going until it reaches the followers which were downloaded during the previous run. What this does is save us from having to download a full list of subscribers every time a winner is selected \u2013 while also ensuring that everyone is included and has an equal chance of winning for each random draw.

Via YouTube DM. If you've been selected as a winner, make sure to check your YouTube DM at https://youtube.com/messages.

Never give out your credit card information to anyone... especially not to any account asking you to \u201ccover the shipping fees.\u201d We'll never ask for this. The best way to avoid getting scammed is to check this page when we tweet that the winners have been announced. If you see your name listed under Winners, click the link to ensure it's actually your YouTube account (and not someone with the same display name). If it really is your account, congratulations! Visit https://youtube.com/messages for further instructions.

All winners are shipped via FedEx with tracking. If you win, you'll receive the tracking number once your prize is shipped.

Of course not. Everything is pre-paid.

Yes. Every device we're shipping is fully unlocked, carrier-free.

Tweet out a photo or post one on Instagram, tagging @tldtoday and @dbrand to verify that you've received your prize.

No. Please stop. We won't acknowledge or reply to any emails asking to be picked as a winner. Selection is 100% random.
