Heavensturn Screenshot Contest (EU) - Please revise results. Heartbroken here.

tbh, I didn't expect to win twice, I was sure that they'd check the winners of the previous event, as it had the same price...
AND I can't even trade it to someone else ingame as a special FC-Event reward too... I hope SE will think of something

I'm just disappointed that there's no screen shot contest for Valentione. We spent a lot of time and effort on the first night of the event, trying to get the right positioning and lighting for something that I thought would be halfway decent enough to enter. And it doesn't matter if I win or not (personally I feel like this whole participation trophy mentality is annoying), but I'm kind of starting to feel that I could have just gotten a couple quick shots to post on my blog and gone on to do other things instead.

They had one for last year's. I assume there will be for this one too.

How could you know?
The winners were not announced when the secund started...

[Spiroth]

With that said, we do plan to introduce more opportunities to obtain the bluebird earring soon, so please hang tight a bit longer.

Thanks for the answer. Please take meaures for this not to happen again. These are unique/untradable items that it's hard for us ultimate in-game collector's to accept not having, but it's unacceptable if we know they are being distributed in an unfair system.
And for the love of God, please do not distribute unique/untradable/finite items to the same person twice, if he doesn't ask for it on an alt. It's a disservice to your fans.

But what about te Earrings of those people that already said they don't want a second set? Will you really decide to throw them away while we are looking with puppy eyes?

Now, where is my new chance for a sweet Bluebird Earrings set?

That's what any normal person would think.

Another contest and hope your entry is good enough to win that time.

Hi, I am one of those who won two sets of earrings, and got my second set on yesterday - had to put my first pair on a retainer in order to fetch the second one.

I entered both contests in order to double my chances to win something, but I'd have never expected to win twice...

I can understand why these items can't be traded nor sold on the marketboard... and on the other hand I know you can't go ask everyone who to deliver the second prize to neither, for obvious reasons.

Anyways, since you guys are open to let us trade our prizes to other characters on the same account, can we ask to expand this AT LEAST to our eternal bond partners? This way you'll know that it won't be done just to sell the prize, but that we really intend to give it to someone special...

First, this was a reply to the community manager, not you, so I don't see what place you have in this.
Second, again because you're slow, that's exactly what I'm asking, where's my new chance, aka Valentione Screenshot Contest, like Japan already has going on for it.
Never asked for winning something I didn't deserve btw. Bye bye.

Hi,I won two sets of earrings, and got my 2nd set yesterday. Had to put my 1st pair on a retainer in order to fetch the 2nd one.
I entered both contests to double my chances to win something, but I never expected to win twice.
I understand why these items can't be traded or sold on the marketboard. And I also know you can't ask everyone who to deliver the second prize to either, for obvious reasons.
Since you guys let us trade our prizes to alts on the same account, can we ask to expand this AT LEAST to our eternal bond partners? This way you'll know that it won't be done just to sell the prize, but that we really intend to give it to someone special.

Now, that is a wonderful idea, and I fully support it. See, logical solutions like these and not like not distributing unique/untradable/finite items to the same person twice, if he doesn't ask for it on an alt, hurting every invested loyal fan in the processs, are exactly what this topic is for.
