A few weeks ago two publishers announced a giveaway of games, as a way of 
promoting their company; the condition was you had to subscribe to their 
newsletter.  The lists were eventually pulled down because of BGG policies 
about these things, but not before they had several days of limelight, plus 
a ton of thumbs and a large amount of new subscribers to their 
newsletters.  One publisher was Pandasaurus, the other was Tasty Minstrel.

Pandasaurus Games followed through on their promise, and still gave away a 
large number of games to their newsletter subscribers as promised.  Good 
for them.  

What about Tasty Minstrel Games?  The original giveaway was posted by 
Michael Mindes under the title "TMG Closet Giveaway ** - EuroGame Edition", 
and included Le Havre, Yinsh, Power Struggle, Hansa, Niagara, Sun Sea & 
Sand, and Kingdom of Solomon, and the winners were going to be announced on 
March 14th.  Quoting from the original list: "winners will be randomly 
selected from the pool of subscribers on Wednesday March 14th, 2012. And 
yes, I will be paying to ship them out to you..."    That was more than two 
weeks ago.  I haven't seen anything posted from them announcing winners, 
and there hasn't been anything announced in their newsletter either.  Or 
did they just take the free subscribers and run, without giving away 
anything?
