Is it 12:30 or 00:30?
PS. I know that it's 00:30, just triggered by the use of AM with UTC.
UTC uses 24-hour clock.

like in the old movies!A jolly good ending!!!
Ahem I have no desire for a new Steam Deck OLED yet. The old model is enough for me. If I want to have a new one, I will buy it - just to support Valve!

Ah, the flashbacks of not being able to sleep last year, having to sleep with the computer running...Oh god it IS gleam.io with the tell tale "# of entries" box at the top left. Great, so I have to show them I have a twitter, instagram, Facebook, and LinkedIn profile with a large amount of followers and a willingness to engage in corporate marketing on their behalf.
At least I had a chance to enter, but this time, they are using Gleam. Bet they would require connecting every single kind of social media account I don't have and won't register.
Giveaways suck. Expect nothing or be disappointed.
And because I have none of those, my entries will be both diminished AND downranked -- why issue me a reward if I'm not going to spread the word to my millions of followers?

Everyone who signs up has 1 chance to win a Steam Deck.
Everyone who logs in via Steam has 1 additional chance to win a Steam Deck.
Everyone who is masochistic enough to suffer registering on Shitter and follows 2 channels can get 2 additional chances.
So, masochists have twice as high chances to win...
So, masochists have twice as high chances to win...Last year, you were forced to suffer through the show, as well!
Well, I tried, but Gleam just kept telling me that they were doing maintenance and asked me to refresh - for an hour, in the middle of the night, for nothing. Great experience; wouldn't do again!
I guess I'm glad that I forgot about it and went to sleep.
