Doppelganger Screenshot Contest (NA) - Discussion Thread

[Dark-Seraphim]

I would imagine the players who won would know first, but i doubt they will announced the winners... I say this because of this clause in the contract. (But i can only hope they announce the winners on the forums, or atleast someone who won could confirm the prizes are already given.

"10. WINNER'S LIST; RULES REQUEST

it says the winners will be announced .. so i think thats just for an official copy of the winners list after the fact.. but they have announced winners of contests in the past on forums openly so I dont know why this would be any different in fact usually its a bit thing.

"The All Saints' Wake Doppelganger Screenshot Contest has reached a dead end! Thank you to those of you who participated!

We had a great time going over all of your entries on a daily basis as your doubles were truly stunning! We will be selecting the top 100 entries within the next few days, so stay tuned for the announcement."

They stated they would announce more than once including this post on the submission thread, so ya... they'll announce them...

How they have done these events in the past is to make one big post with all the winning entries, I think a couple notable mentions, and then prizes get distributed however. But when they have decided, there WILL be a public announcement.

BUT I NEED TO KNOW IF MY LORE-CONFORMING IMPERSONATION OF CARVALLAIN, PERHAPS AS HIS [TERRIBLE] PUBLIC DOUBLE, HAS IMPRESSED THE COMMUNITY TEAM.

</em foams at the mouth and bursts into flames.>

So here we are drawing near the close of yet another day November 7th going into November 8th which means 2 days late on results of the competition this is not beyond near... I think this is another Square letdown. *Sigh, just like the bomb and Cactuar earrings we waited almost a month to get after they were won for each server and what happened they were junk.. So the people who won them did all that hard work for nothing, I bet there were insulted and I bet they felt quite cheated. Something they won for their servers and yet it ends up being nothing more than common trash, things that no one will even wear. Isnt there enough gear around like that why keep making more junk

[Joewade327]

These prizes should be just that prizes and be a true "PRIZE" and be something that can be treasured and worth being valued and worth the wait and the effort.. I know myself personally I spent over almost 40,000 company seals to get the equipment for my screenshot so I put a lot of effort into this contest. I wouldnt have even purchased the gear I bought for the contest had the contest not happened. I think many other people feel the same way. We went out of our way to take this contest serious and be creative. I even purchased the minion I didnt own for 15,000 gil which I am short on gil due to a repeatedly happening game error that I am still waiting on Square-enix to actually correct and reimburse me for. I am saying this all so when one of the Square Moderators reads this they know we players took it seriously. We deserve to be treated with respect and not be put off and lied to and given excuses and given useless equipment as a prize.

Guy, calm down. It's been two days.

[Oriens]

Wow, are you serious?

The cactuar earrings are vanity. Purchased for ONE gil and 99% of the population didn't have to do ANYTHING.

And no one forced you to participate in the contest. They presented the prize beforehand.

Stop complaining.
