    The chances of winning this must be like winning the lottery. Most people that play this could afford a DS themselves(ebay ftw). Theres nothing special about a DS with stickers on it that you coud make yourself for the same price as a normal package of zen. This isnt realy promotional as you are just going to get the regular amount of zen buyers and whoever get the DS isnt going to use it, rather sell it(ebay ftw) because they are playing PWI already.

    Then tell them what kind of prize you would prefer, they're asking for feedback not emo jibber jabber. (ebay ftw)

    Most of you people havent actually read the rules of this event.
    It says you dont have to buy zen from the cash shop. You get entered for buying gold from the auction house as well.
    So if you happen to REALLY want a DS with PWI images, I suggest you go buy some gold from the auction house instead.
    That way its free b:victory

    PS. I think you'd get a much bigger response for giving away some of the major gaming consoles such as an Xbox 360. Im pretty sure that would quiet most of those complaining right now.

    Am I missing something here. I couldn't read through all 7 pages so maybe I have.

    The GMs are not forcing anyone to do anything different. In fact they're not saying you have to buy Zen. They are basically saying "Hey go about your normal routine and for those of you who were going to purchase Zen then as a thank you, you have a chance to win a DS.". So if you don't want to win a DS don't buy Zen. If you didn't plan on buy Zen before then don't. They have taken nothing away from the normal day to day, but instead have added to it. They have also made it possible for non paying players to get a chance as well which they didn't have to do.

    Settle down people. At least the GMs think of stuff to do and make changes. If you want to play a game where the GMs don't do anything at all then I can point you in the direction I just came from.

    remember that there will be only 3winers. How many will be counted into the "give away"? 100?200?300?
    Unfortunetly your chance of geting a DS(I ve already 1 :p) seems to be under 1%.

    It should be called a Raffel... Not a Giveaway. Can you edit the title? It feels like a scam and the Devs were also on drugs when they made the ladies show there panties :o

    Quick Reminder:

    This event will be coming to a close shortly and on Monday (Nov. 17) we will begin tabulation of our sales data to determine the winners of our 3 prizes.

    Thanks to everyone for participating! We are very pleased with the increase of Zen Charges as a result of this event - particularly from users who have never made a transaction before.

    Stay tuned next week (likely Wed or Thur) when we announce the 3 winners!

    have a great weekend, all!

    Do you guys think you could extend the event to Monday? Some friends from a gaming community are getting paid soon, and we're all playing Perfect World International... I'm not saying "extend the event just for us", I'm sure it'd give others a chance to buy stuff too.

    Hello to all the fine and friendly folk of PWI! After firing up the ol' Cray Supercomputer we recently fed it an algorithm to randomly select 1 user from each of our 3 servers to award our custom branded DS Lites to.

    After several cycles of intense calculation the 3 winners have been announced below! Two of our winners were made eligible for this drawing by charging Zen during the specified week, while the other winner purchased gold through the Auction House.

    The winners are:

    SANCTUARY = _Hotep_ (Cleric)
    LOST CITY = loveME (Cleric)
    HEAVENS TEAR = Ona (Cleric)

    To our 3 winners, first off congratulations! Please PM me when you have a chance and let me know the following information:

    1) Your Full Name
    2) An email address
    3) Your shipping address

    Once I hear back from the 3 of you, I will keep you posted on when your DS Lite gets shipped out!

    1 winner per server?Weak GM's just weak,pass it along.You're already getting a ton of revenue increase on people more tempted to buy some Gold cause of the event and now your greed goes so far as to only give 1 person per server a chance to win a DS-Lite.

    Start making worthy events,u know the ones that benefit non-cash shop users too.I could give many suggestions,but what suggestion convinces greed?

    Edit:Gratz to those who won it;)

    Feels right somehow, though. All that healing and stuff, we deserve some relaxation every now and then, and a DS sounds just about right for that! b:chuckle

    Odds were probably pretty high you know. Hardcore clerics charge ZEN on a possible daily basis to restock charms/dolls to keep going. More ZEN charges > more chances to win.

    This game is based off real life money really, Mounts ect (besides midnight now that the rest are in boutique weak btw..). Look at the mob drops, nothing really amazing most games have mobs that you can kill for certian drops (rares,mats ect) after the mob turns green on here thats it grind of days on that mob tryna get low level mat.. Its all pathetic really lol, So I don't buy Zen especially when they over charge if your out of the US. I like that extra charge they tried to put on alsob:chuckle. Most games shouldnt make it so you never have to enter the number again, instead PWI REMEMBERS your numbers and all you gotta do is click on how much zen n click next. LOL at that. This idea is just like the referral, Horrible. So we gotta convince people to join a game, spend there money on it then we get OMG A FREE PIXELATED BLACK RAPTOR !!!

    I wont be buying zen for along time :)
    I like when I say stuff that make kids go b:cryb:cryb:cryb:cry.

    Love,
    TenderMeat. b:kiss (New character, retired this BM)
