    I'd like to start off my saying the grammar and spelling in the above posts is disgusting and horrifying. That being said, let me address this. Everytime there is some sort of contest like this, we have sore losers. In response to the "no new stuff, all "****" from Malaysia" QQ, well so what? It's new for us, it's still a rare mount, and all participants were aware of this.

    I should be the one angry right now. I won something and am currently banned for something I'm not sure of. Probably another QQ'er submitting false tickets.

    Query 1:
    SELECT username FROM users_who_bought_cards ORDER BY RAND();

    Query 2:
    SELECT numcardsused FROM users WHERE username = 'winner';

    Easy peasy

    And still too squishy...

    i have 4 $20 game cards infront of me.... that i used during that event...

    but oh well u got my money already

    btw, heres a thing for u GMs who say we take your suggestions ect ect, were not getting anything new, wat were getting is programs from the melasian server which is only being translated into our language, its nothing new, when the new stuff comes out its just from the melasian server, just translated by the developers, only way our suggestions would actualy work, is if its already in the melasion ones

    dont deny it cuz u know its true, the 9 tailed fox mount is already over there, its been over there for a few months, same with all these other "new" mounts
    this pre-paid thing was just a scam to get our money and u know it, cuz if people won with 1-2 cards while others used many thats kinda messed up, it was fixed, and u can deny it all u want idc, im not the one person who u said check your tone to im actualy some 1 else who is lil ticked at this

    and u know were not getting anything "new" its just something thats already there thats bein reprogramed to english, so change your suggestion forum to

    "got a suggestion? ask wat u want from the melasian server" cuz than wed prolly get wat we want

    have a nice day


    Hey guess what, a random drawing means that there's a chance that you won't get it even if you spend alot of cards!b:shocked
    Is that surprising? I bet so

    I am surprised at how stupid and plain ignorant alot of you are, especially this person..

    The GM's HAVE that information, also, a lot of the winners SAID how many cards they used.
    Idiots like you guys don't deserve to walk this earth

    After reading this whole thread, I am not surprised that those that complain the loudest appear the most illiterate.

    Please, do not reproduce and do not play the lotto, do not go to a casino or play any games involving money in a decade when you reach the legal age to gamble.

    A contest, a drawing, gambling, games, etc... the likeliness of winning does not necessarily increase with the amount you spend. Gambling addicts who lose everything can attest to that, but they're familiar with the fact that you're more likely to lose than to win.

    kthx

    Stop complaining, you bought the cards knowing full well it was a random drawing. Stop acting like you're owed a ninetails or that you ever expected to win. Stop QQ'ing already, you know what you were getting into.

    I hate to bring this up because I think it is great that PWi is giving away things and encouraging purchase of their products and cards... but was this legal? I believe that any contest/drawing that gives away a free prize is by law supposed to provide a means for non-purchase entry. If not they open themselves up to accusations of illegal gambling.

    You may want to take a look at your illiterate paragraph and think again about saying "I'm not QQ'ing."

    I don't know at all about the legalities of it. Not really concerned about it. But for everyone crying that they spent money and lost: even if I had the money to spend, there's no where in my area to purchase the cards. So, couldn't enter if I wanted to. No Target, no 7-11, no game cards of anykind.

    Thing is, I understand that and I'm not crying over it. That's my luck, that's my life. I do a lot of grinding for in game money. Just the way it is.

    You're the only one flaming.

    Pointing out your illiteracy could be considered a personal attack, but at least it is the truth.

    You're the only one telling people to STFU and using foul names to berate them. That is certainly a personal attack.

    People seem to have a twisted sense of fairness that goes something like this:

    A. If I won it was fair.
    B. If I lost it was rigged.
    C. If the winner bought less cards it is imbalanced.
    D. If I cry it's justified.
    E. If you cry it's QQ.
    F. Gimme, gimme, gimme or you'll be sorry.
    G. PWi is greedy... now gimme *rolls around on floor kicking*

    To all of those who congratulated the winners: b:cute..The mount is AMAZING!! Vulpix and I were jumping all over the place!!! b:chuckle

    To all of you who chose to QQ:

    1) The contest rules were clearly stated and NO ONE HAD to participate. In fact I know many people who chose not too, even though they did have a chance to purchase the cards.

    2) It was a random drawing.

    3) Do you all get all pissy if you don't win the lottery? If you by chance miss a raffle drawing for fund raising or school events? OMG....it was a CONTEST!! There are chances THAT YOU WILL NOT WIN!! Had I not won would I be disappointed = YES! But I would have congratulated all of the winners and gone on with my life and the game.

    4) You are QQ'ing and there are A LOT of players THAT DID NOT EVEN HAVE A CHANCE!! Players in other countries did not even get an opportunity to enter and YOU ARE COMPLAINING!! How mis-guided is that? You selfishness knows no bounds, it is sad really...

    5) Those who think that winners spend a HUGE amount of money...WRONG!! I do not know what a huge amount of money is, but for myself personally I did not buy what I deemed to be unreasonable, about 10 cards. There were people who only bought 2 cards and YES they did win a mount. It was NOT about who could spend the most money, if that had been the case, I can assure you that a good amount of the winners would not have won, including myself.

    6) LIFE'S NOT FAIR!!! YOU DO NOT ALWAYS GET WHAT YOU WANT WHEN YOU WANT IT!!

    ** Side note: I do NOT consider myself to be a lucky person at all. But I decided to try anyways, after-all if you do not try then how do you know? I freaked out when I saw my name on the winners list and thought it could not be true. But it was and I have a brand new mount. Had any of the others won, there would not be this issue. It never ceases to amaze me how selfish people can be!!

    --> You do not like the fact that you lost. We get that! b:surrender

    *** Here is the kicker...wait for it......YOU ARE NOT THE ONLY ONE!!! OMG....can you believe it!! Like I said before...be thankful you even had a chance. There were hundreds (prob thousands) of players outside of the US that had absolutely NO chance to win or even enter.

    *** Had I not won, would I have been disappointed = yes. Would I be trolling the forums because I need something to complain about = no. Would I be congratulating the winners = yes. Have I been in this situation before with other contests = yes.

    *** And also, you have voiced your opinion but with that comes others opinions. It is a two-way street!

    *** In the future, don't participate. It might save you some anger...b:bye

    Lets all get over ourselves. I spent $100 and didnt win either prize, and Im not going to complain because I knew it was a random drawing when i bought the cards. I have lots of really nice stuff I bought with in game coin previous to spend any cash. It was a rare spending event for me, I have kids so the extra money usually has a preplanned ultimate destination. Back to the point, you can have almost anything you want in the game without spending a dime if you have basic economic skills.
