    since i dont want to ride a 16 bit rocket, nor a stolen giraffe nor a white polygon pegasus, can we just give every entry the same reward and have GMs decide on the top 3?

    Im Ariciaa ,this is the first time I participate in a contest made from PWI, and I big surprise about how the people cheat the votes and this PWI guys do not do anything, i agree with many people here someone is just voting B and B all the time, in the 1st round there was only 1700-1800 votes maybe in a 3-4 days ? and now we are close of 5000? wtf how is that possible in a one day the contest have that amount of votes.
    I participate because I thought it would be fun but and this things help me to practique in what i study but for real is not fair for the people who really put effort to make a design.

    It seems pretty clear the results are being gamed... just like every other online voting contest this game has ever had. Can the GMs just stop doing online voting? Or at least never attach contest rewards to voting results. The rewards weren't even that important and the results are still being manipulated.​​

    What the hell is with this set of mounts? There's still stolen art work and worst of all they seem to have the highest votes? 2B and 7A are the best ones in. Doubt they get through with all the proxy votes :/

    So my friend sent this screenshot to me after she voted today.

    The gap tho, only in the halfway of voting duration but it already reached 5K+ people. This just showed clearly that voting can be easily manipulated. I have so many questions to the management about the event but I think I'll just waste my time, they don't even reply on this thread and answer questions in facebook.

    well, the admin never reply again except my issue about the numbering on the first round... they don't even answer how was the wild card work and never had any further explanation about lower bracket thing...

    I would like to recommend how was Black Dessert world costume contest vote system by using Gmail account or at least 1 Character Name with minimum level 20/30 per vote... This is my first time to see a disaster vote system for a special event which was never done in another PW as far as I know...

    Plus, I read about "cut off when we see the highest best 4" and think that will never happen...

    Congratulations 2A. Each round your votes have been off the scale high. Who knew people were so desperate to win? What's most disappointing is that your "work" isn't even your own.

    Rules
    1) All designs must be original works

    What a joke! Remind me not to take part in such contests anymore.

    Oh wait, their main communication hub is facebook, right, forgot about that, why would they use their own **** forums :^)

    I hope this would remind everyone to stop participating in voting based events because PWI is not transparent and very very unprofessional, these words are not enough to describe them tho. THEY ARE SLOPPY SH*TLESS DEVILS, HANDMAID OF SATAN & WORK OF EVIL! THEY NEVER CARED ABOUT THE FEELINGS OF THOSE WHO PUT GREAT EFFORT ON THEIR WORKS EVEN IF IT IS OBVIOUS THAT THE UGLY MOUNTS USES VPN TO VOTE THEIR WORKS, THEY ALSO LET COPYRIGHTED MOUNTS IN THE BRACKETS, PUT BEAUTIFUL MOUNT VS ANOTHER BEAUTIFUL MOUNT IN FIRST ROUND (so stupid, even a kinder can do a better survey than them), CUT OFF THE VOTING OF 3RD ROUND 2 DAYS EARLIER THAN THE DEADLINE POSTED IN THE NEWS. This issue happened a lot of times now. People should really stop, STOP JOINING THESE EVENTS. I felt really bad for those beautiful mounts and just got beaten by drawing that can be done in 5 seconds.

    Idc if you ban me, this account is just made to say this tho and Ijs 100% fact. #RocketMountforPWIDecadeAnniversary #CopyrightMountsWins #PWISucksAndWillAlwaysBe #UnprofessionalityAtItsBest

    Don't forget to vote the rocket mount! well-deserving!

    I feel like you're being sarcastic about the rocket mount but seeing what has happened with this and pwi's fanbase, i'm doubting that. I really hope they don't actually design the winner if it's some dumb ****. This was a disaster and that small hope of a cool new badass mount was destroyed too early.

    First off They should be Making a bigger better Contest Because its the 10th
    Second Right off the start they should have followed their own rules about entries must be original works & so on... and Removed or disqualified ineligible < not trying to be mean but copied works from online, Stealing already in other game mounts, & not creating an original idea.... I do see some very cool Mounts on display, & I'd like them to get a fighting chance against other good Mounts that followed the PWI Rule / Guidelines
    > If they felt they didn't have enough entries at the Start of the Contest.... ?
    Why couldn't they have extended the entry time?
    or ran with what they had and at least made a good System to vote by players
    or they should have run it somehow differently

    I am Not a proud PWI gamer at this time very Disappointed in this whole mess.

    I am not feeling Proud to be a PWI/PWE player
    This is supposed to be a Grand Celebration for a contest its the 10th anni

    I can not make sense of the voting system
    and why were the mounts already announced as copies from other games, and ones not created by players just copied off the internet as pictures.
    Hey I totally understand not everyone is an artist, I hand drew mine made a mess of it several times
    and well even looking at it now its lame, I could have done stuff to make it stand out. I know How people are in game about their Mounts and pets and flyers and Clothes.... We want Fabulous

    The mount that won last year I didn't even realize there was a contest, and I've been playing since 2009.
    I've entered other contests its supposed to be fun

    this is not fun, its confusing and well I am ashamed of the contest.

    I had entered
    8GTN9x1.jpg

    I am disappointed in myself I thought a chimp face was cute
    but it needed a tail, & chimps don't have tails
    and my dimensions are all over the place
    I didn't think of adding flare or gimmicks even,
    you look at everything that's in the game today and I drew something dull.
    I'm sorry fr what I entered, was quick.
    But to lose against that Rocket with no imagination, put into it.

    I feel you.. ;w; I also feel like i should have put more time and effort into mine as well. You shouldn't beat yourself over it though! yours is pretty cute! ^^
    But since the whole contest is rigged, it probably wouldn't have mattered in the end, sadly. There were a few really nice ones that were eliminated within the first few rounds. :c
    PWI should have just picked the winner themselves like last year. seems like that would have been an easier way to do the whole contest anyway? xD

    Yeah im going to vote the microsoft paint rocket too.

    That way PWI will have to make it exactly as it is, no colors, no fancy designs just create that mount as it is. As a mis-shaped white, rocket because after all, they said they would make the one we vote for.. They want to allow things like that to go through, let's make it win!

    RockyMcRocketFace for the win!

    Well for starters they will have to make it look less like someone riding a giant d.ildo.
    Secondly they will most likely add stuff, change stuff so it look nothing like the entry but more like their own design yet using the rocket shape as the base.

    For all the players complaining about how those abusers vote endless times through whatever method they use, hear this out.
    It's piece of cake to vote endless times and you don't need to change IP or use proxy or whatever other huge philosophy.

    How to vote endlessly on that voting poll of survey:
    Open the Google Chrome browser.
    Click the Customize and control Google Chrome Chrome menu ... (3 vertical dots) icon in the upper right-hand corner of the browser window.
    Click -----New incognito window----

    then go vote, then close that specific page.

    Then re-do, and open a new incognito window, go vote, close the page, re-do.

    Number of votes will not refresh with every page you re-open, sometimes it will take a few minutes to update.

    Incognito window ftw!

    Cya!

    This contest is the biggest **** farce that PWI has ever pulled. It is an absolute disgrace. GMS are being absurdly lazy and irresponsible in persisting their use of easily gamed online polls. Just put in a bit of actual work and intelligence into the process, and pick the winners themselves. Even if the GMs are biased, it won't be to **** 2-bit rockets or weird plant with green hair. **** ridiculous how all of the best entries except the spider (who is probably the individual doing the gaming) have all disappeared. Utter nonsense.

    I can't even select that longass ink from arc and I have no idea how to request to open it in a browser. This is cancer
    is it even worth voting?

    @hyourinn , that "longass link from ARC" is not the website, and i suppose you mean the Excel document spreadsheet (h ttps://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1hVGOai-mSevEi0xHKhtabzNo91buNzcjYU24DegYQXk/edit?usp=sharing ).


    The website is the page of voting which opens instantly after you click at ARC NEWS, long story short, just copy paste the link below each time you re-open incognito window :P

    this is a new account and i can't post links, so copy paste the survey website or type it ( i put space after H to show it to you):
    SURVEY WEBSITE: h ttps://www.surveymonkey.com/r/9GTQLN8

    some players did this to get rid of the rocket mount image, they added like 3000 false votes to do so :P

    Instead of that rocket, they are now choosing the pink v*g*na .

    there are players who add like 200-300 votes per hour, so it takes an army of people to combat in 1 day against them.

    Did my reply get deleted tf

    ugh
    as I said, arc won't let me select text from that website through it so I can't even copy the link. It's not even worth typing it out into google with the selection we have left.

    & with the rocket, do you mean they gave the survey link to others who don't even use arc since it's a public poll?
