Actually, you're both correct.  The newsstand edition of the March issue of 
Amiga World had the contest in it, but the subscribers edition did not.  I
noticed this last month and was a little mad (apparently subscribers to Amiga 
World aren't worth as much to IDG as people who buy issues off the newsstand).
Anyway, this month's issue, they screwed up and put the announcement for the
contest on the subscribers issue's cover.  I think the subscribers should let
Amiga World know how they feel about being effectively (unless you want to buy
an extra issue of the magazine from the newsstand) shut out of the contest.
