    I know you are busy, but if you modify the event specifics, submit it on the official web page as well, not just and only on the forum.

    Furthermore - before you would suggest to use the Refresh button -, do it on a different event code (4081) - witch we won't see anyway -, becouse without deleting cookies players won't see the update at all, not in EI nor FireFox.

    I hope at least you didn't change the e-mail address.... did you?


    This was the original:

    "Here's how it works:

    * Take a few screenshots of your favorite fashion, feel free to mix-and-match.
    * Think of a cool name for your fashion.
    * Send the pictures, your fashion name, and your character name and server to: pwi-events@perfectworldinc.com



    All submissions are due by Monday, June 29th at 10am PST!



    On Tuesday, June 30th, we will post 5 finalists of each gender and ask our users to vote for their favorite. Those who make it to the top 10 as well as the highest rated male and female fashions will win!"

    Thank you. b:thanks


    I am sorry if I repeated somebody, I didn't read through all the 11 pages, only the first 2 and the last.

    I agree whole heartedly with this, as I entered by just reading the website rules, and thus was kinda "wrong". Hell it will help you GMs out to as you'd've got the smaller pictures you wanted and less inbox spam from people not putting names or whathaveyou in the e-mails.

    I don't know, I wouldn't count on it. I mean, when I tell my mom I'll wash the dishes in five minutes, I don't really MEAN five minutes. Could take longer, I don't know.

    My suggestion to GMs:
    Don't announce the freaking date for winners unless you KNOW you can keep it. I'd sooner have a closing date for entries and no date for winners than be lied to and have to wait longer than I've been told. Honestly, this happens too often in PWI and we all get a little tired of it...

    MissEbil Like us, they're humans with limited strengths. Yes I do know of such situations which led to bigger frustrations on procastination. Only one way that works for us is to develop a virtue in patience and stay at that.

    I am also tired of waiting but again it helps me to cling onto hope of winning while results are being prepared. I am sure many of us feel the same thing.

    We are not GMs, cannot do anything in our power to tell them to give us exact date. We can however tell them how we feel, like you did in your post.

    My reaction for these 2 threads

    Ya but then again, how about they just focus on one event at a time, if they have a schedule they should stick to it, like he said things have been "pilling up" maybe to many events at once?

    Yeah, but then you get people complaining there's not enough events, or that the one that there is they can't enter/ have no chance of winning/ think is a stupid event. So yeah, they can't win that one, even though it's the most common sense.
    When you're working for/with a lot of people, common sense isn't the best option cos they don't understand it.

    A combination of too many events and not enough GMs / other people in the office to do the small stuff.

    You know, now that I think of it, this contest give an advantage for those who have characters in private servers lol. I think some, you can buy any clothes and dye it any color cause the dyes are in boutiques. Wish there was a way to tell those screenys apart =( If not have the GMs go look at the winners and see if they really have those clothes in that particular color. (kinda hard yeah..)

    Private servers are not allowed to be in pw contests. In fact you can be banned for having characters on private servers. And they can tell because they cannot receive reward on a viable server.

    That would be really unfair.

    when you encourage prohibited behavior we cannot help but be suspicious of the motives for doing so. Please omit these sorts of discussions from the forum in the future.

    -_-.......... Because as much as I post stupid things on this forum, I like fairness, as hard as it may be. Before you actually cannot help but be suspicious of the motives for me trying to state possible loopholes that may help future events, please google up said prohibited behaviors and see how many are lying around open and free and undisturbed. I am starting to conclude that the only prohibited behavior that is starting to arise is the taboo of mentioning these said places to pretend they do not exist while they are left untouched.
    Telling one to refrain from mentioning these things due to possible problems are understandable. But including the phrase that "we think you are suspicious for mentioning this" put in a very obvious but round about way, I believe was going overboard. You have your job to do, and this is probably menial to you, but I just lost a whole bulk of respect for you with that quote, I'm sorry.
