I was sad too for the outcome of this contest. If you're not going to follow the rules you should be DQ.

Thank you very much for addressing the concerns! It definitely helps to bring excitement for future events and promotes the integrity of the contests!

Well I actually don't think this will help new players unless SE goes one step further. Now if they are giving the potions away with base version/collection edition of the game then yes it will help.

As it currently stands price is high enough to stop anyone paying for it straight away, yet it is still low enough for LONG TERM players who want to level an alt and don't want to do the crappy 50 grind on MSQ. Don't get me wrong I loved the story and watched it all and have also watched it again while my son plays it. Now do I want to watch it a third time NO!

Thank you, Luxpheras!

Thanks, Square Enix for the awesome contest, and congratulations, everybody!

I feel like SE just roll 20 sided dice to detemine the winner, how else would DQ entire be allow to win.

I am happy I was a winner and I followed the rules. I worked hard on my apartment for a warm and inviting winter feel with no holiday theme.

I do find it odd though that after the DQs, the list didn't move up in the "ranks" and new folks weren't filled in at the end of the list. However, it is stated at their discretion in the rules.

I agree on both counts. Personally, I think it was an honest mistake, and SE handled it well. They owned up to it, and fixed it. No complaints, there.

I too would have liked to see the list bump up, instead of just swapping out the DQ entries where they were. Personally, it would have moved me to 6th. But hey, 8th is nothing to sneeze at, either!

It would have been nice if they made it visible and in bold at the top of the entry thread or the discussion thread that only apartments and private chambers qualified. Or at least sent a PM notification to people who didn't know they violated that rule.
