Dear @Joe Bloggs , nope. We are not linked. He is an online friend of mine as we are both reviewers from the same country (different parts though).

I have no idea why my own showcase link links to his showcase. Maybe it is a bug.

I've copied my showcase link again and pasted down below. I've tested it and it links to my showcase instead. Please give it a try again. Thank you.

Hey @Joe Bloggs, the accounts are not related and both are separate account as we’re both different person. Not sure why Bryan’s showcase somehow linked to mine. Lol. Could be a bug or something. Weird

Thanks for the apps! As previously announced, on-time applications for this tour ends today, I will count it until Sunday ends around the globe. Late applications may be accepted but the "lucky last" reviewers to keep the tour units will be drawn among those who applied on time. Cheers!

Some updates regarding the tour:
1. all tour participants currently on my shortlist have been notified by pm yesterday. Please check your head-fi inbox.
2. if you haven't received anything yet, well, if any shortlist-ers haven't replied with details by tomorrow, you may yet get your chance :D
3. between us and the participants so far, we have all agreed that the tour DAP will be the R6 pro II instead of the R6 gen III :D

Watch this space :)

Hello,

Yes, I also think it's a shame that new residents don't get a chance.
They can give better feedback on what is not good and what is good and improve it accordingly for the future than any pro rewiever who only describes the essentials that you can find on X pages by now.
Where, unfortunately, you can hardly find any information about how good the devices actually are.
Probably also due to lack of time or interest to deal with the things.

As it looks, I'm not there either, which is no bad thing.
I will cope with it and am not angry about it.
Congratulations to all who will receive it and have fun.

I also found it a pity that Generation 2 was delivered at short notice instead of Generation 3 as described.
There must be delivery problems or something else.
