Sega hasn’t forgotten about Sonic’s birthday.

Due to an influx of Twitter followers that resulted in the contest’s announcement late yesterday, AAUK is asking participants to reply to @sonicgames on Twitter, and NOT direct message the feed. According to the Blognik post, the Twitter giveaways will be handled this way:
In addition, Sonic’s Facebook page will also hold several giveaways, and AAUK also specified how those contests will be run:

We will announce which swag pack we are giving away and a special code phrase – e.g “Knuckles The Echidna Rocks!”. [....] In order to help those who don’t have lightning fast connections well often specify that a specific response (the 5th, 8th, 15th, etc) will win the prize. We then repeat the process until all the swag packs are taken.
In addition, Sonic’s Facebook page will also hold several giveaways, and AAUK also specified how those contests will be run:
We will announce which swag pack we are giving away and then ask for wall posts/comments on a topic of our choosing. The best comment in our opinion after approximately 30 mins will win the prize.
