Yeah, same here ;/ I entered. Was the entries randomly selected or they were biased and chose some people they knew?

Originally posted by Luxely I was under the assumption it was random, but by reading other posts and the winners' responses, it seems to be more "how much thought you put into it" along with happy throw up stories and such. Can we get confirmation this was actually "random" ? |

Jesus, is this really happening?! :D My entry was really the greatest moment of my MMO life but I never would've thought I can win :P Never actually won anything to this day. I'm so happy, too bad I bought MoP like 3 days ago in normal version, should've waited :D Anyways, thanks for acknowledging my entry and giving me the prize. I'm a big fan of your site by the way, keep up the good work guys!

Congrats Zzad.. Sorry to hear of your friend passing.. Good to know you still game on as some would have stopped..
Xpac is cool so far, better paced and now too much different faction rep to grind, if you aren't a raider or pvp'er.. think you'll like it just don't burn out.. |

Why have anyone share their stories with us if it was just a random selection? Michael "MikeB" Bitton |

Just Received this email from MMORPG.COM: Hi there! Unfortunately, we are not going to be able to honor your prize due to associated shipping costs. Please accept our apologies! :( Regards, Michael Bitton
Is this True?? C´mon i don´t live in some lost village in Africa....i live in a main City in Europe!!!! As i said in a email sent to MMORPG Community Manager....I´ll run with shipping costs...... :/ I just can´t believe this is happening after beeing awarded as the Grand Price Winner!!! PLZZZ get in touch with me...this is so unfair :( |

So even after offering myself to pay for the shipping cost of my "Grand Price" the only response i got from MMORPG.COM is: Really sorry, but this isn't possible. :(
I feel CHEATED. No where in the contest was said only US citizens could participate... I live in Spain (Europe),....and i´ll gladly pay for shipping costs to get my Signed copy of MoP... I just don´t understand WHY you cannot send it to me????!!! Never expected this from MMORPG.COM...............................

Welcome to the club there Zzad. I live in Poland and I got the same message yesterday. The only thing that saves me in this situation is that I got a friend in the US that I can tell them to send it to. I don't know what are you guys playing here but It sure is a damn coincidence that from 3 people that won the grand prize 2 of them were in a place where you won't send them their due prizes. Europe is not some remote village in Africa, just like Zzed said, so I don't see a problem in sending two boxes to people who actually won something and cover the shipment money (I'm sure you guys have some sort of income), and if you can't then you probably shouldn't be running contests when you can't afford to send the winners their prizes... |

I don´t believe them, They didn´t give me a reason at all...just "this isn't possible." ...i guess some friends of them got "our" Prices....................... ¬¬

I really can't think of any other words than outrageous to describe what has happened. Can't really find a reason why they wouldn't let you pay for the shipment and get your prize other than that it already went to some brother/friend of theirs. Either this or someone fucked up and they decided that the winners should actually take the blow and not the person that actually is to blame for this. If I would run such a website I would have made the man responsible pay the shipment costs for the people that won. Either this or just fucking make an effort and make it possible for those people to get it some way, suggest some options of solving this problem other than "we are really, really sorry. we can't do anything about it".
