why I never see any winner from third-world countries?

This is your second post ~ever~ and you haven't posted at all, in nine months.

Still, you're complaining about how prizes are awarded? Really?

I read articles everyday, but my English is not good enough to discuss anything. :mad: And I just say what I see. :)

To my understanding TechPowerUp is made up mostly of Europeans and Americans so there is a greater chance that they will win. There's simply more Europeans and Americans entering for the drawing.
