I am just writing my moan here as there doesn't seem to be an official channel that I can write my complaint. About 3 weeks ago, on on a game of 1 vs. 100 WITH PRIZES, I was in the crowd (along with 16,000 other people) and I was on fire. After about 5 or so questions I had got on to the Top 10 players board, and then when the player lost (I am pretty sure they lost rather than took the points), and the top 3 players were displayed, I was the top player! That felt good typing that, so I will say it again; I was the top player, number 1! Now, the guy that is the supposedly the live host, but only ever says 48 words all night, kept on saying that 'the top player wins an xbox live game' (or maybe it is the top 3 players) and 'to make sure your e-mail address is correct so that they can contact you/send it to you'. My e-mail address is correct and I won. Have I heard anything? NO. They stated the prize quite clearly, but have yet to pay up (I know that it isn't the Fiat 500 on offer, but I still won it fair and square). I really enjoyed 1 vs. 100 whilst it lasted, but do feel that they should play by the rules that they set for themselves. Is this just a glitch that has affected me or has anyone else been cheated? Mr Gates, where is my game? (I am sure that the featured game that week was Zuma - not my choice of game, but so what) Let me know your 1 vs. 100 experiences, especially if you won a prize and whether they have coughed up yet or heard anything from them.

You said you were in the CROWD. You won't get the prizes. The people who get prizes are in the MOB. The MOB consists of the 100 people. Those 100 are against the 1. You have to be chosen to be in the MOB just as you are chosen to be the 1. I think you get chosen at random depending on if you qualify. I think you qualify based on your career score. The CROWD plays along. If you get a question wrong, you aren't eliminated. You can keep on playing. If you're in the MOB and get a question wrong, you are eliminated from the rest of the round.

yes, crowd doesnt win anything, only the mob *The group of 100 vs 1* sadly you wont get any prize, the only thing you will have to keep from that expierence is the mental image of you being ontop of the leaderboards :\

That's not true. The top 3 in the crowd also get prizes I'm almost positive. If you listen closely though, it says it can take something like 6 weeks! to get your prize. Keep waiting I guess, and congrats.

Here's the 1 vs. 100 FAQ. I read something about being in the top 3 scorers in 1 vs 100 LIVE, but nothing about winning a prize if you do. I don't know, I could be wrong.

If it works the same as the US version, then yes, the top 3 players in the crowd each round win the featured XBLA game. Maybe it's just taking them a while to deliver? I've heard it can take a while.

Why don't you phone Microsoft and ask them when you'll get your game? They'll be able to help you better than we can.

Wait like 3 weeks to get your email. I won in the mob in the North American version on the 29th of August and still haven't got my email. You also have to be 18+ to win.

They take 4-6 weeks to send you the code on email. So wait till then and then start ranting
