    My guess on the situation there:

    1. They pick 5 random people.
    2. They send a facebook message to those 5 random people saying they won and PW needs a reply.
    3. 1 of the people reply, the others are fake or inactive accounts.
    4. PW waits one week to give them time to reply just in case.
    5. PW sends another facebook message to 4 other people saying they won.
    6. 2 people out of those reply.
    7. They wait another week for replies from the other 2.
    8. PW sends another message to 2 other people.
    9. No people reply to this message.
    10. PW waits one week for the reply.

    ...This could go on forever. With the amount of fake accounts, or people that became a fan a long time ago and no longer play, plus the time they should allow people to reply in case they only get on facebook one or two times a week, I can understand why it takes so long.

    kinda +1
    i think thts wht they are doing, but they shouldve done this;
    1. send facebook messages to 20 ppl.
    2. if more than 5 replies, first come first serve.
    3. if less than 5, do 1. a week later.
    4. keep going till 5 ppl gets it.

    this way, shouldve been done WAY quicker...
    i know there will be tons (or 15, precisely) of QQ saying "i got message but they rejected!!" but it would be WAY less QQ than letting everyone wait for years...

    I think this event was fail. The 2x for 2 weeks was good enough for everyone I guess. This part is just a let down

    Does anyone else think about the theme to Jeopardy when they read this topic or is it just me?

    He should be able to finish this process in 5 sec by just randomly (and nicely) choosing 5.

    But... seriously, if it's not gonna be done for another month, just say so. then, we can wait till we all forget.

    Hey guys, sorry again about the delay; the process *insert dramatic music* has just moved to the next step.


    Still might be a week or two from completion, though, so we definitely appreciate your patience :)

    My guess: You've gotten 5 people to reply, now you need to find which character they want the levels on, then have to wait for a maint b:chuckle

    I was never contacted! QQ I guess cheating the system and making 1,245,634,234 fake facebook accounts is FTW. And who says cheaters never win?

    b:puzzled if they had the 5 players already wouldnt you think word would get around? lol those people would tell their friends or tell someone and that would spread like wildfire because of how long we have been waiting.

    Possibly. I'm not a GM, I was just throwing a possibility out there from my experience with contest prizes. b:chuckle

    tis possible they meant that they rooted out all the people that made multiple accounts

    Frankie replied to my post on the most recent event.
    Said something how they need to make sure all the accounts are verified and whatnot.
    Make sure they aren't fake.

    If that were true then why are you so concerned about who won? Oh, I get it, you just like to be seen as a respondent. b:cuteb:laugh

    well, frankie has told us to wait for 1 or 2 weeks, on 8th.
    lets wait for another week (stop QQing a while).
    they need time to work on this, not the time to get depressed with QQs :D

    to all who's working on it, good luck finishing it and... take your time but not too much lol

    You are a very angry person, Nifsara. Y so srs b:sad

    Although, just telling us "We're verifying accounts now" or "We're waiting for replies now" or "We're __________ now" would probably pacify all the people QQing here.

    Nup. They are still working through the many accounts, probably to determine how many are legitimate and how many are multiple alternate accounts of the same person.
    For those times when *facepalm* and *headdesk* just aren't enough, I present...*brickhead*...painful, effective, and guaranteed to make you forget why you hit yourself in the first place.
