Psch....until you pull your heads out of your pockets, I will not give this game a positive review. I despise greed.

I really enjoy the game and have already spread the word. I'd enter this contest, but I still haven't received zen for leveling past 40 in closed beta....I could write about that and how I have been assisted thus far, but I don't think it would bring many to PWI sorry

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rt9BcMsFtRs ~ the video

This is in regards to the statements made by several people over pm's, posts, etc. I have posted a video on youtube using resources that i had, since i did not have any good videos (my comp. got a virus so i got rid of alot of junk, including the virus, all my PWI CB pics, videos, went too. not the point though) I looked up videos on google, and youtube, and yes i found the download to the developer diaries. (only one class video out at the time) I downloaded them, edited them, added pics i found over the internet (Added my own too). Yes people will say i used copyright infringment, BUT the moment i see a copyright on the video, or in the description, ANYWHERE i will not use the edited shorts of the longer video. People will say but copyrights are still in play, i have yet to recieve word from admin, gm, mod, owners etc. that i should not use the footage i did. The description of the video on youtube clearly states *Copyright* This video is not meant for my own personal gain and is in no way to make profit for me. I solely made this video for the event's purposes. The pictures, music, and video all belong to their respective owners, not me. All Rights Reserved. *Copyright* for those that did not read that, do read it. Also the purpose of the video is to show that PW is not like WoW, or GuildWars, or the other games it is compared to. IIT IS TO MAKE THE GAME LOOK GOOD! WHICH IT HAS (READ THE COMMENTS XD) Yes, its a "kiss in the ****" video but thats what the event is about (though the gm's are looking for a neutral view because that will be the most truthful review*hint hint*). Controversy over k? thx:D oh and yes i know this is old but im still getting them and i lied about not replying but i did not point a finger at anyone:D

adding a few words and a couple of pics in someone elses work will not make it yours. ud be pissed if idownloaded the video u edited. adding a few more words and pics and changing font and called it mine.

I don't even want my prize from this company, this contest had poor judges. The 50 dollar winner wrote what? 3 paragraphs? Wow, awesome.

Even if I wanted my prize still, I probably wouldn't even get it anymore.

Uhm, regardless of incidents that have happened over the past 24 hours we still consider you one of the winners of this contest and have every intent of honoring your prize.

I need to understand something though - are you saying that you don't want your prize? Its cool with us either way, just needed clarification on that point.

Zezixsshop - Lost City · September 2008

I need you to PM me your msn or yahoo or AIM info, we really need to talk and I need it to be with an admin. Don't tell me you don't have any of those because I know for a fact you do, thank you.

He can't get his prize. Beside the fact that he's posting on his dual clienting shop, he's already posted himself botting.

Duel Clienting? You have no room to make that assumption. People have more then one computer.

Also, hes the Admin, he can tell me if I can get my prize or not, stop playing big guns.

Didn't you also claim to bot and try and talk **** about RQ botting.

What makes you think your word holds any validity?

What makes you think I care what you have to say? Get back on topic. This isnt a thread to cry in.

But while we are at it, I have gotten a few RQ's banned for botting, one of which is TheRock.

That's nice. If he botted he gets banned. I can deal. None of us knew he botted and when we found out, we were pretty surprised.

But at least we don't go around being hypocrites. Anyway you are gone now, so have fun with whatever life you have. If you decide to come back, if you're even allowed to, be sure to give your IGN out.

Grey sends his love.

rev · September 2008

Quit fighting, both of you. It's so silly that you are fighting over this. Zezix, be glad you won anything you know, to be honest, from my past in contests I wasn't expecting to win squat for my review, so I nearly fainted when I saw I was even on the winner list, let alone at the gold spot. Congrats to all winners btw ^^

Zezixsshop - Lost City · September 2008

Ugh, I guess I will post it afterall...

The bot everyone is saying I used would be imposible to use with this version of PW.

Whent those screenshots were released me and my friend who also plays (wont insert names) decided to google it and see if it was even anything. When we found something, we found out that the bot which was mentioned is ONLY working with pw-my as they have different encryptions (at least i would hope so)

I would post the link to the site I am talking about but I would probably get this account banned aswell, so if you REALLY want some proof PM me and I will send you the link.

I am done with people making false assumptions based on their peers rather then their own study.

alarikulf · September 2008

I shall go ahead and add my quick input.. I of course did not win, however I believe the ones who did win deserved it. Not to mention any names, but I believe certain people are simply complaining because they did not win a prize. Sure it's fun to win a contest, but it shouldn't be disappointing to lose.

I pretty much had the same reaction. Read the notice twice to make sure it was right lol. As far as any critique of what I wrote goes, for my part I gave my true opinion of the game, with Pros and Cons. Whether or not it was too long or too short is irrelevant, as that wasn't part of the criteria, but rather the quality of the review.

Congrats to all who won.

Review contest - CLOSED - Winners have been announced!
