congrats Bioware! You're attempting to turn your fanbase into your own viral marketing team! Wow! Such a humble degree of respect for your customers! AND screwing over non-Americans! Wow! Congrats! /sarcasm.

I want some free clothing. Anyone else planning to bid for that N7 hoodie if they can? I would love to get my hands on Mass Efffect t-shirts as well if I can.

How many prizes can one win? Two per account, right?

There is only like 400 so I highly doubt its even two. I think you might beable to bid for maybe 1 item. check out the rules.

Though I am disappointed, can't hate on Bioware, doubt the whole US exclusive thing was their choice, probably more to do with some legal mumbo or shipping fees.

Then they shouldn't have hyped up the rest of the world outside the US.
If they didn't anticipate the potential backlash they're now getting, then whoever is in charge of spotting things like that needs to get fired for ineptitude.

Wow, just read it is not open to new yorkers...



Go frak yourself Bioware.

A celebrative collector's DLC?
job.

A good and awesome idea. A free DLC for ME and DA.
In DA it could have been a Carnival with silly stuff you could buy and
some mini carneval games. Same for ME but with the addition that the
bought stuff could show up as a trophy in your quarters.

/TSD

Everyone could then have celebrated with some silly stuff instead.

thats horrible, but for some reason I'm laughing.

[Radar E 33]

I don't think Bioware would be stupid enough to do this. Methinks they were pressured into this by *someone* cough *EA* cough

[Linko64]

So they only reward Americans?....wow



how ****ing lame

[battleship potemkin village]

The "contest" portion needs a webpage option. I don't "tweet" and this won't make me start.

it feels alot worse to be in New York and Florida right now. so close, but shunned by our own country...

[Jurgenaut]

Still though... They should be careful flaunting their good trademark in poorly disguised astroturfing attempts. A countdown for this marketing stunt?



It's like if blizzard would have a big countdown and then reveal the 'recruit-a-friend' incentives for WoW. It's not my job to sell your games to my friends, it's yours.

[Xerxes8933A]

So, the contest isn't even open in the same city as the company running the contest is located in?
Huh.

It reeks of EA. You honestly want me to spam my friends to go get your stuff? Not gonna happen, do your own marketing.

No doubt many Canadian gamers who played Dragon Age and ME2 are going to be irked by Bioware's refusal to acknowledge them as "part of the community" through this contest. Good way to ****** off the Canadian and international fanbases!

Well actually they did have a contest for nothing but canadians recently. Maybe they will have another contest outside the U.S. after this one. You never know.

I miss 2007.

I hope Bioware notices

At least most MMO publishers stated pretty clear rules for thier contests to avoid "confusions" like this.

Honestly i don't care for this contest at all (E.U here) but i really find fact of excluding Canada (as many pointed homeland of Bioware), NY and Florida from this "event" rather troubling.

Especially in case of N.Y this rises many questions whit one major... IS N.Y still part of the USA?



On the other hand i tought that "dump and run" tactic (aka no reply for negative comments) is reserved for MMO publishers only.... but apparently i am wrong OR Bioware start to test thier ability to run from angry mob before they become MMO publisher as well.

[PwnDaddy123]

I guess this signature is going to last.



Until the next referendum of course.

yeah but but Bioware say they are rewarding their fans? no they aint they rewarding some of their fans and alot of them i would hazzard a guess have obly became fans when Mass Effect came out

But i guess theyve done a Nintendo of sorts and dont care about their older fans

[crimzontearz]

can anyone make me a banner that says

"I used to be part of the community, now I am just a green card holder"?

Precisely.
This countdown was a countdown to fail.

And if someone could get me a banner to say: "I used to be a part of the community, now I'm just Floridian." that'd be great.
