This is what you got sent if you weren't selected:

Thank you for applying for the EKOCYCLE™ Cube® Printer Giveaway sponsored by 3D Systems and The Coca-Cola Company on behalf of FRC team 2081. Over 2200 teams applied for this opportunity. Unfortunately, there are only 1600 printers available and your team was not among those selected this time. Again, we thank you for your time and wish you good luck with your season.

Can confirm, 4519 also received one of these emails.

Re: MakerBot Lottery
 

1676 got one of these too. Ah well.

Re: MakerBot Lottery
 

Team 980 received both emails! We only submitted one application.

We received the "Congratulations!" email at 10:51a PST, then a rejection email at 12:21p PST.

We replied to the Congrats email indicating we received a rejection email.

Wonder how this will play out...

Re: MakerBot Lottery
 

There isn't an FTC team 980, is there? They might have gotten mixed up.

Re: MakerBot Lottery
 

We are receiving one as well! :)

Re: MakerBot Lottery
 

Team 4276 got an EKOCYCLE printer as well! Now we have this one plus the Cube from last year. Looking forward to trying out the "recycled" filament.

Yesterday during our CAD training session, I challenged a student to CAD up a water bottle we could 3D print with it. So we can convert old water bottles, into recycled printer filament, back to a usable water bottle! This will be the first "test" part on our queue once we get the new printer, haha.
