Looking at the quote of the bounce message, I think I know what happened: There is a central mailbox for the answers and it also splits to individual persons. The central mailbox is not part of the bounce report list, so my guess is that's why we saw emails coming in: Gaea was checking the event mailbox, me thinks.
So, does that mean that you guys do have our Twitter emails in at least one of the mailboxes?

Some gold just landed in my account and I got an email (5 mins ago) so I assume they'll post the list of winners shortly.

Alrighty, for those non-Aussies out there - here is the basic Biscuit v Cookie explanation.
Aussies use BOTH terms. What Americans call "Cookies" we call "Biscuits". When we say "Cookie", it is a subset of "Biscuit" - eg, we'll call it a Choc-Chip Cookie - but it's part of the broader "Biscuit" family. Generally speaking, the plainer the Biscuit the more likely we are to call it a Cookie - so we'd never call a cream-filled or chocolate covered "Biscuit" a "Cookie".
As I understand it, a "Biscuit" in America is what we call "Scones" - though from experience American "Biscuits" are more savoury than our "Scones", which are typically sweet and usually are served with the likes of Jam ("Jelly" as I understand in America) and cream.
I believe our usage of the terms Biscuit and Scone are similar to the British.
