Rooster Raffle

So we're getting these Rooster Raffle Tokens from daily login now, with the purpose of there eventually being a raffle with rewards.
But this Rooster Raffle Token is the exact same item as the July Token we got in July a year and a half ago (I think) except they just changed the name on the item...

Turns out I now have a ton of alts with mailboxes full of Rooster Raffle Tokens (and not just 1 or 2, the July Tokens came in a much larger quantity) which I'm assuming will still count in this raffle since the items stack with these new ones. And Im pretty sure Im not the only one.

    Too bad! We did a datapull prior to this, so anything not gotten within this timeframe will not add entries for you! We see you thereeeeee...

    But here's what's happening behind the scenes, so to speak, to explain why this is-

    All the tokens CN provided us for raffles and giveaways generated event gold every day on top of that and they're not good trackers for multi -entry type events anyways, so we couldn't use those (plus would be disastrous to suddenly flood people's boxes with tokens that gave 30-50 event gold every single day on top of qualifying you for a raffle haha!). Unfortunately we had to use one that was whitelisted which had been yanked from a previous timeframe. So now, that token will be locked for any future use and we'll have to ask CN for new tokens that DON'T auto generate gold every day when you log in.

    There's people that are getting these every day. I saw where one guy claims he has almost 400 of them. I stopped getting them when the log in event ended, and only have 14. Thanks again for a lopsided, play favortism game. :/

    I have 412 tokens on my main. I redeemed them through the codes from the hide and seek event with the GM.
    You can find them in the code thread, if they haven't expired yet.

    @ skahl The login event was on January.
    http://www.arcgames.com/en/games/pwi/news/detail/10369813-year-of-the-rooster-raffle

    As far as I know there isn't a current login event? Am I mistaken?

    There were some codes given out, not long ago with raffle tokens. You might want to check this thread regularly to see new codes when/if they come out. ;)
    http://www.arcgames.com/en/forums/pwi/#/discussion/1195386/arc-codes-pwi-only/p1

    There are some codes there. Good luck to everyone! :)

    Codes have been disbursed and posted through FB and the forums! The Rooster tokens for the Hide and Seek event were red chatted when unlocked and posted in the arc pwi codes thread. The social media connect code was released on FB. The login event happened near end of the month into the start of February.

    Hope this helps!

    Should we still keep our tokens? Is there gonna be a raffle? If yes, when? What are the prizes?

    When do we find out who won and what do we do with the tokens? How long should we keep them?

    Can we get rid of the tokens now? taking up valuable space in my inventory.

    Surely having one inventory slot taken up by these tokens for a while longer is not a big deal :)

    it is nearly heart breaking to see people post they have over 400 of the rooster 'tickets' when my toons have less than 15 - I guess I don't spend enough money on the game to warrant equal treatment! Learned my lesson though, from now on when I get things like this I will immediately NPC them and not worry about any 'rewards'!! btw thanks PWI for the useless turtle and swine rewards from Lucidsilver - really enjoy NPCing them for 1 coin - NOT!

    Another stupid comment comming from you. There have been free codes that have given rooster tickets and free to play in game events that have given rooster tickets as rewards.

    A lot of those codes were posted here on the forum in the code sticky thread, and duplicated in Facebook as well.
