Doppelganger Screenshot Contest (NA) - Discussion Thread

I agree if it were based off of likes too many people would be begging likes from the world

Meanwhile, I'm a better writer than screenshot taker, so I miss out on the Haiku contest. Lol.

Oy vey iz mir.

True enough - It was difficult for me to do the screenshot contest - I am not good at that sort of thing.. I am a writer, a published poet at that so for me its a huge let down that I did not get a chance to participate in the Haiku contest. For me it would have been perfect.. I think all the contests should be open to everyone regardless of where we live. I don't see why they have to be regional. Seems a bit unfair.

Man, I already did the level 50 Warrior quest. That NPC looks exactly like my character excluding the hair so only have to find the outfits. QQ

Ehhh US/Canada (sans Quebec) only. The other contest is for PAL territory only. Cool, thanks for leaving the rest of the world out.

I would REALLY like to know, is the prize account-wide or does it only go to the character used in the submission? I really want to use an alt of mine for this contest, but I also really want the prize on my main character for obvious reasons.

So now that it is officially the 7th of November 2013 of course, when will we be seeing the announcement of the 100 winners of the contest and the distribution of the 100 prizes in game to these winners? I do recall that it took quite some time for the Servers to be giving the Winning prized Bomb and Cactaur Earrings and then instead of them being mass mailed or such players have to track down 1 of the 3 in game Moogles in obscure in town locations and pay for these earrings - yes they were 1 gil only but this does pose an interesting point.

I love how I was completely ignored on my entry inspite of how much work I did to get the clothing a& the fact I made effort to throw in the All Saint's wake (Halloween) season flair. I feel very jipped right now. I think maybe I should just quit this game first my main character is robbed of hundreds of thousands of gil and allagan tomestones and Im given the run around for 2 months & now after waiting days for them to post these results I see people who to be honest were BORING in their winning entries. I feel very jilted by Square right now. OF course most of the winners are from Japan & it seems this was based on the amount of LIKES their posts got on the forum post of their entry as I checked - Funny I didnt recall that this was said that this was going to be the criteria used to judge is in the rules. IF I knew, I would have shamelessly begged friends to click LIKE for me.
