I don't get why some of you are going to other forums to badmouth BioWare, or why you expect some sort of substantial gift. If anything, all BioWare really owes us is a small apology for their mishandled marketing/contest debacle. I don't think raging and badmouthing the company is going to get us anywhere at all. Nor does it prove that we deserve any sort of response. Maturity is usually repaid in kind.

Well said.

Stop complaining. Bioware is giving away free prizes and you guys are mad just because your state/country isn't participating? Grow up please.

Nothing but "srsly epic fail bioware" phrased in 30 different ways by sixty different people is hardly anything "constructive."

a. Convert every token from every illegibile member into a cent, then donate that money to Child's Play.
b. Allow the currently illegible members to participate in the auctions anyway, and donate whatever they win to Child's Play.
c.
Give one illegible member all (or maybe half) the tokens of all other
illegible members, and let him or her participate in the auction to
donate whatever he or she wins to Child's Play.

I actually did see this. And while it's an idea with a lot of heart - the reason the other countries are not included is probably for a reason. Whether legal (with some kind of law with the countries, etc) or otherwise. I don't think for a moment Bioware sat there and said, "Let's have this contest... but pretty much just include most of the US." (As I understand it - there's even some states that aren't eligible because of various laws).

So for Point A - while this would be awesome - I don't think during economic times like this Bioware (even with EA backing them up) could afford this kind of thing. (Do you realize HOW many people play Dragon Age outside of the US? And just owning and registering DA alone is like 1500 points! Granted, that's $15... but take that and multiply it by the thousands? It adds up ver quickly!)

Point B could work. It would be nice if it did. But I imagine it's those international laws that allow those of you outside of the States to play to BEGIN with is what prevents you from playing to even DONATE anything you might win.

And Point C I just could not see happening.

I am no lawyer. I am not an expert on international laws. But I think Bioware has enough logic to include everyone they possibly could for this - if it was within their power.

I can almost assure you once they knew that not everyone could be included - they prepared themselves for this kind of backlash.

I don't want to undermine the very good idea, but I think you mean "ineligible".

"illegible" just means we can't read them. (Granted, there's a few of those too )

It was just a quote not my idea but you have a point.

I just with they would at least make some response, instead of just ignoring everyone.

I agree, a response would be a good idea on their part. They are probably just waiting for all of this to die down a bit, but they'd probably be better off making some sort of response now.

Then why in the name of Odin (nudge nudge) advertise this thing as an epic community event? Most people are more angry about the misleading advertising/hyping than they are about not being able to partecipate.

With this being said, the Child's Play ideas have my whole-heartedly support and I, for one, will be more than happy to donate every single one of my points.

[LOST GAM3R]

lol, still no response.

Then why don't you go and donate like 100 dollars to some charity?

It's easy to ask somebody else to do something like that, rather than do it yourself.

to be fair its hard to be constructive when youve got nothing good to say about something.

I agree that for many there is nothing good to say about the countdown result.

But does that mean fall into immature anarchy with "srs epic fail bioware" posts for 170+ pages?

But in the end - Bioware doesn't owe anyone anything else. This Bioware Bizaar Community thing is just an extra "bonus" that some people can take advantage of.

Fairness does not exist in the "real" world.

If everyone had the same attitude you have, my people would still be forced to sit on the back of the bus.

If something seems unfair, what's wrong with raising your voice in protest?

BIOWARE'S EPIC COMMUNITY COUNTDOWN SAGA - ON YOUTUBE

Once upon a time, BioWare built up hype with a 7 day long countdown to an "Epic Community Event", which turned out to be an event that excluded most of the community.

People had been misled, hyped up for what turned out to be nothing, and were generally angry at the implication that they apparently didn't count as part of the community.

This is their story.

[stuffingam]

I really feel sorry for bioware.

This event was undoubtedly eas idea and when it fails who r they gonna blame?



Bioware and that means bad things r gonna happen.

[kiran]

Argh, still no official word from Bioware? I wonder if the CEO/devs know about this?

The community has Jigpig.



The non-community has Imran Shah.



Seems almost fair, but not quite.
