That's a shame. I didn't win anything either, I just wanted to finally become a taru! :3

no mod post yet, but so far empty delivery box here while a ton of people have ark weapons already... and it started probably 6 or so hours ago. pretty sure they're done, just not posted yet. had went to sleep hoping I was just farther along the list but still nope. looks like I'm one of the many losers, which is disappointing. at least the people who could go to vanafest were guaranteed mog suit if they did stuff, and with old bonanza if picked numbers right at least could guarantee lowest tier prize... this just proves how much random chance dislikes me (especially when look at my luck with logwatch drops.)

It's possible they are still sending out. I don't know. My guess is that Camate and/or Bayohne are still at work.

It's nice and great that people at Vanafest got to do something where they could be 100% guaranteed to win it. Instead we get the lottery (and the fanfare prize is something you only get a small chance to get). Obviously I'd love an Aegis or something, but I didn't enter particularly hopeful for that, just for the simple items. 'We'll be handing out plenty!' Yeeeeaaaah.

I agree with you, I think everyone should atleast get an Athena Orb. Or even just one of the Ark weapons. It's disappointing not to win but it's still nice we had the oppurtunity.

I demand a redraw.

I can confirm some prizes were sent out, got a moogle suit this morning :)

I hope future events will make it possible for others to get at least these and the AA weapons.

Sorry we can't squeeze more out of them but we will be sure to let you know once the Goblins have finished all their their deliveries!

I wouldn't give up yet guys. Like Okipuit said they'll annouce when it's all said and done.

Congratulations to all that won! I unfortuntely didn't ;;

One of the winners of rank 4 :) #freakishlytallmoogle !

i thought i lost since i didn't get anything last night when my friends already had a scythe and orb, just woke up and I won, so yea go me

like the few others have been saying that many of u have been ignoring... they said they will announce when all the prizes have been distributed. they are doing it in the order that you had submitted the form so it seems. so dont give up yet just because u dont have anything in ur DB at tme moment! its not over til the fat moogle sings!

Did EU get released too?!

Yeah, they were released alongside the NA winners

Hmmm okay. all my EU friends havnt won then either

There was a LOT less EU winners compared to JP or NA. Unfortunately, SE didn't decide on granting a guaranteed prize, such as the crappy weapon, which would have been a much better idea.

but Hey, it's SE, their staff aren't paid for their ideas............

Yes I'm always disappointed when someone wins the lottery jackpot and I get nothing. It's so unfair that one person gets the million and I end up with nothing. Where's my fair share I ask you. . . . .

You're going to class a useless proc weapon the same as a million (insert your currency here), really!?

PS. This wasn't a gambling event, so point null anyway.

this just in guys be prepared the rank 1 winner chooooooooooose......................................Yoichinoumi!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yeah I kinda laughed at that but I hope he's happy with it. Checked my box again in a vain hope that something came.

Still nothing but dust mites!

I hope the players who entered multiple times with their mules and won twice are proud of being selfish.

I haven't won anything but people who have two, three or even more mules and won on every account (it could happen) have every right to, they pay their sub fees like everyone else. Sure, it means 1 person would have won a larger number of items than anyone else but they are also paying more than those of us with a single account.

I don't think people could enter multiple times. Unless they were really smart and made more than one Square-Enix Account back when everyone had to transfer.

The fact is that this was a random entry process w/ define numbers of random items available yet ppl are whining that everyone didn't get a prize. It is the same to expect a winning ticket for everyone in a lottery. If 6251 ppl participated then we all have gotten something but that did not happen.

might have if so many people didn't enter mule accounts... just sayin...

Only one entry per SE account so if say you and your husband had separate POL accounts but were on the same SE account only one of you could enter.

I completely agree with you Kiko. I can't believe how many of my friends mules received items they will not use, entering the mules into the contest for giggles or the rare chance at rank 2 money items. It was within the rules, fine. But the scythe has more use than the costume feature. The only thing I was looking forward to was the scythe and if I had won something bigger, that's awesome. But there is much disappointment of falling within the minority of losers. I'm very happy for the winners, don't get me wrong. But it's extremely disappointing to not even receive weapon. Had this played out like the old bonanza, I would have set up my marbles to win the bottom tier to get a scythe.

Same here. :( Mainly just wanted the scythe and suit. Anything else would've just been a bonus.

Someone posted something on the AH forums that sums up how most of us feel. "I feel like a child that got no presents on xmas." But besides that, I think had there been more losers than winners it wouldn't feel as disappointing. Also, the long wait in anticipation, the push back of the event and wondering every day in July made it that much worse when you lost.

not all prizes have been sent out so just hang in there

You guys need to stop complaining about not winning anything when clearly this is a lottery-based thing. Every time you purchase a lottery ticket and pick your numbers, do you bitch and moan when you don't win? I wholeheartedly believe complaining, moaning, whining, etc. is why SE does not give NA players the events that JP do. JP give constructive criticism. I have multiple JP/Chinese friends I talk to over multiple ways like text, phone, vent, skype, TS, and mumble...They read these forums and just shake their heads and go back to their JP forums and write their squiggly lines.

Seriously guys, grow up, live with it, and move on instead of sitting on the same topic posting multiple times you didn't win.

Ignore the winning jerk with the cool JP friends.

Just like I said, whether win or lose I'm just happy they actually kept their word. Haven't got to check mine yet.

Well. The odds are in your favor of winning. I hope you did. ^_^

My statement was in regard to people who have two separate Square Enix accounts for their dualbox (or tribox, quad, etc) setups. People have posted on FFXIAH that they won on multiple characters this way.

I say it's selfish as the prize pool for this is limited, unlike Mog Bonanza where it was only limited by numbers the players themselves chose. But I suppose it's an opinion in the end.
