It appears the registering and voting for the golden joysticks is up again, i have not tested another email though, remember it takes a while for GMG to associate the CVG and GMG accounts

I would like to confirm that i got my key, originally the email link led to the oops page, however as of now when i checked again it gave me a success page, and i received another email with the steam key

      You will need to wait about 6-12 hrs after voting then click the link they sent you again.

      This is exactly what I am getting ffs.

  • superforever on 11/10/2013 - 21:23

    Finally got it.

  • ThirstyCow on 11/10/2013 - 21:46

    got the game, seems they compared emails around 6-8 pm

  • tyler.durden on 12/10/2013 - 00:07

  • huydn on 12/10/2013 - 01:06

    got mine! thanks a lot!

  • jenna12 on 12/10/2013 - 02:07

    I can't even load the site right now because the barbs are everywhere.

  • Lucky13 on 12/10/2013 - 03:21

    Thanks heaps just got Civilization V for free usually $70, not bad, thanks :)

    I still get the error:

    It seems there was a problem.
    Can you please try to register your details again, as we encountered a glitch in the matrix.

    Tried different logins and email to no avail :(

  • B3 on 12/10/2013 - 09:14

    So you need a GMG account, and a CVG account, and to get a CVG account you need a Facebook or twitter account?

    • SambaL on 12/10/2013 - 16:39

      or Google account. =)

    • Lucky13 on 12/10/2013 - 21:40

      No social network account needed, can just join CVG

  • Rupture on 12/10/2013 - 09:22

    Got it after awhile, once the voting came back up had to wait about 10 hours for it to register that I had voted. Great find OP.

    Cheers OP, thanks for the tip. Got a free copy of Mafia II and Civilization V, a saving of around $100 using two accouts. Btw it doesn't take 24 hours, more like 12. You need to create an account on CVG using the correct email account, corresponding with the one used on GMG.

    I did not vote in all sections due to server problems, but did in most. Make sure you actually click submit vote.

    On GMG, make the username unique, all lowercase and only a-z 1-9. This will save you from the hated matrix glitch.

    Good luck to those trying to get it. I may get a few more copies and give them to those unfortunate enough to be running into problems on their site.

    • Lucky13 on 14/10/2013 - 14:50

      Thanks for that, just got a copy of Mafia II as well :)

  • lonepine on 12/10/2013 - 16:49

    Just downloading Mafia 2 now.
    Thanks OP

  • superforever on 12/10/2013 - 22:22

    Is this only for PC Steam games? Because I saw it allow to select other platforms.

    • The Gent on 15/10/2013 - 13:24

      Just stem - I think it's just looking for info on we, the voters.

  • xhanatos on 14/10/2013 - 09:34

    Thanks OP, CIV V :)

  • [Deactivated] on 14/10/2013 - 10:09

    … I just realised why I haven't got anything yet…

    I only verified on CVG. On GMG it still states "Your account is not activated. Please check your e-mail to activate your account", but I haven't received any email to verify from GMG… I only got an email from CVG…

    Actually BS, I got one from GMG too..

    Thank you for voting in the Golden Joysticks 2013. Please confirm your email address below to receive your free game (in association with 2K Games).

    But it doesn't work still. X_X

    • [Deactivated] on 14/10/2013 - 18:21

      I just received another email…

    Every email I open from GMG my Outlook absolutely shits itself.

    Best advice for those just signing up. Wait.

      Mine too, Outlook seriously hates GMGs correspondence.

  • [Deactivated] on 14/10/2013 - 21:53

    Just got the game.

    They take down the site every now and then. That's when they check the email lists.

    You will know it is time when you cannot signup for a new account.

  • redpump on 15/10/2013 - 14:03

    Fire Emblem for GOTY!

    I voted for Civ 5 but got Mafia 2 instead, does anyone want to swap with me?

    • RedFoxAU on 16/10/2013 - 23:28

      pm sent

  • captbollocks on 16/10/2013 - 20:46

    It's been 2 days now since I voted and I haven't got my Civilization 5 Key yet.

    I even voted every category.

    Anyone else have this issue?

    • The Gent on 17/10/2013 - 12:12

      Go through the typing your email and username into the 2nd page again until you get a message that isn't "you've already voted" - worked for me, I just kept entering over half an hour or so and BAM.

    • captbollocks on 25/10/2013 - 23:07

      Finally got it! Wow they really did come through in the end!

      Thanks!

  • Zenskas on 17/10/2013 - 07:38

    Already had a verified account with both CVG and GMG under the same username and email address.
    Also already voted in the awards before signing up for the free game. Went to the free game signup, put in my GMG details, got an email asking me to click a link to confirm my email and get a free game. This was nearly a week ago now, no free game email sent yet :(

    • dirtybird on 17/10/2013 - 16:04

      If you have not done so today, click that link in the original email again.
      The details on new page should say they are sending you the key for the game.

      (but they did run out of codes)
