  This particular thread has been a very postive thread... lots of fun stuff, amazing skills (barring a few AI enhanced stuff), great spirited participation, amazing yuge tremendous great generosity from papa Eric, very tasteful selection and judging from Precious, great-bot-defeating strategy and everyone wins (and I think, for many of us, it was the participation and drawings that really made it great fun and brought out the latent child in all of us).

  Zero stress - only fun.

  Can't really ask for more... other than a Duck race where Precious beats papa Eric

  Can someone engineer that as a token of appreciation?

  Thanks everyone who has participated and especially @crunchbits for supporting the event. I only realise a little bit late that this competition is no longer about Crunchbits anymore, it is more about how we potray the life of ourselves as a dad would be like and a way for us to bond and socialise.

  I almost shed a tear reading stories from @default @Saragoldfarb and @Smigit, together with looking at some of the great arts drawn by @cainyxues @muffin @_MS_. If anyone wants to look at them again here's the index: https://lowendtalk.com/page/crunchbits-easter-2025

  
  
  
  

  Without further ado, let's start by saying Eric has just done the impossible and decided to add a few surprises to everyone who has participated and to be honest I didn't really see that coming, I would even argue this is the best LET deal I have seen so far with huge quantity!

  So let's start with looking at our original specs:

  • 4 vCPU (E5v4 or equivalent)
  • 12GB RAM
  • 15GB NVMe
  • 450GB RAID-10 SSD
  • 5TB @ 1Gbps
  • 20 quantity
  • $42.69/yr OR $57/3yr (only $19/yr!!!)

  Oh so you thought Eric only allocated 20 of them? Nope Eric decided to bump the number to give everyone who has participated the prize, yes EVERYONE, all 31 eligible drawings.

  
  
  
  

  And just when you thought that's all... no Eric is so touched that he decided to upgrade the specs. But wait the specs is already damn beefy, what else can it be upgraded? Lo and behold it is now freaking EPYC because you guys are super EPIC, and did I forgot to mention even larger DISK and lower COST!?

  • 4 EPYC vCPU
  • 12GB RAM
  • 640GB NVMe RAID-10
  • 5TB @ 2.5Gbps
  • 31 quantity
  • $19/yr or $55/3yr

  And that the above, is the deal every single one of you eligible participants will get. @caracal @ariq01 @codelock @beanman109 @geo @sh97 @NS32 @Samurai @NaughtyWombat @anakara @senos @tj111 @default @cainyxues @Kevinf100 @muffin @Smigit @Penguin @FAT32 @Decicus @JabJab @nullnothere @nvme @brauni @_MS_ @plumberg @mkdirkatie @admax @idle @beanman109 @nghialele

  
  
  
  

  Some of you might argue that hey 31 is not a good number, why not 32 in light of FAT32!? This is because one of them is THE CHOSEN ONE and they get DOUBLE the specs.

  Hold on a second FATTIE, who is that chosen one? Is it FAT32? Is this another rigged contest? Absolutely not, all of the arts have been vetted by MiniCrunch/Erica (Eric's daughter), and out of all she picked THE ONE:

  

  Submission 19 by @Penguin - To quote what she said:

  Is that daddy jack and baby pumpkin?! I WUV IT

  That's it, the chosen one will get the following, the most legendary deal ever in LET history:

  • 8 EPYC vCPU
  • 24GB RAM
  • 1280GB NVMe RAID-10
  • 10TB @ 2.5Gbps
  • Only for the chosen one - @Penguin
  • $19/yr or $55/3yr

  
  
  
  

  Aside from the chosen one, Erica also chosen a few other drawings which allow each of you to pick 1 of the Crunchbits merchs (Hoodies, Mangilla Shirts, Calin Blanket [only 2 left], or their unannounced newest shirt). It will be shipped at Crunchbits cost (as always) and if you are worried about PII you can gift your merch slot to someone else of your choosing, the winners for the merch are:

  @NaughtyWombat @senos @Kevinf100 @admax

  
  
  
  

  @sh97 will be liasing with all of you on how to claim the prize, it will take 2 weeks or more to setup and if anyone complain about it being too long I will happily take the deal from your hand. Once again thanks EricChad @crunchbits for supporting and sponsoring this event

  Reguards.

  Congrats to all!! Now that's beefy!

  Giveaway

  Again want to send a big thanks to the providers that have participated in this easter thread. In particular @crunchbits and @sh97 who really kept things alive and delivered some very fun promotions. Thank you also to @Saragoldfarb and @FAT32 for helping to facilitate things.

  Having benefited from the thread, I’d like to give something back in the form of a free transfer to one lucky person.

  To enter simply thank this post by 1AM AEST 24 April. (AEST is UTC+10 if that helps) - countdown clock

  The plan is a GreenCloud VPS 1010 Birthday in Singapore. Details as follows:

  Plan: 1010 Birthday SG
  Renews: 16 October 2026 (~18 months from now)
  Renewal Price: $100.00 USD every three years
  Location: Singapore

  CPU: 5x EPYC Milan
  Mem: 10GB
  Disk: 100GB
  Bandwidth: 2TB

  Winner will need an existing GreenCloud account and be willing to share their email address with me to allow the transfer to occur.

  I’ll work out whether to use a random roulette wheel or a duck race or something else by the draw time.
