It took 9 months and 1887 entries, but I finally won something!

I actually couldn't believe it, but I had actually, really, truthfully and undeniably won! It felt glorious. I was actually in-game when it happened: I received a friend request through the Steam overlay and at first I just thought it was a random person but then I received a gift and realised what had just happened. It was amazing. And I wanted to share my joy with you and also give a word of encouragement to the unlucky cynics, it might take a while, but it does happen - you too will win someday.

Feel free to share your stories of what your first win felt like.

(Btw, to celebrate the occasion, here's a little something).
