Quote from the FDM page...
"Our application deadline has passed. We are sorting through the pile of applications (nearly 200) and will be posting your contest wannabes for all the world to see in a matter of days. From there, the opening challenges will be announced and the Superstar contest will be on it's way. More soon! "

Since I can't post there i have to post the question here.

Did I win the "thousands of dollars" worth of disc golf gear? If not who did?

watch your tone george. i won't have you bashing FDM, thats my job.

obviously that contest was a sham just like the overall publication in general
