All this fuss over a contest, people? Really? We're getting upset over a contest?

You should see the Firewalker thread. People are comparing FREE DLC being crap to people ****ting on chests.

So how long do people plan on keeping these sigs?

depends on biowares reaction. If they manage to make up for it it goes away, if not it stays essentially for eternity as a reminder of this epic fail.

So any statements yet from Bioaware/EA why the rest of the world is excluded ?

No and I doubt we will ever see any.

Guys.
It's for legal reasons.
Just like any contest.
It doesn't mean BioWare or EA are ageist, racist, or sexist. 

Knock it the eff off.

Yet they could have multiple international contests with prizes over the years...

Also Canadian contest rules (excluded Quebec) are far lighter than the US.

What it comes down to is they shouldn't have said community event, they should have just had a countdown for a US contest and left it at that. Saying it is your fifteenth anniversary when you're a Canadian company and excluding a huge fan base is a poor decision. Seeing the reaction here, don't you think someone at BioWare's offices would have said "hey you ...know...maybe we should word it...better." I mean for pity's sake they are Canadian, we're ridiculously politically correct and don't want to offend anyone

Still doesn't explain why they advertised it to everyone !

Oh wait, you're right. One little trivial detail makes my entire valid argument based on logic null and void.

My fellow non-americans, New Yorkers and residents of Florida...



Yesterday, Monday 29, 2010—a date which will live in infamy—the Bioware "Community" was suddenly and deliberately misled, via means of website Bazaar announcements and countdown notices, originating from the Empire of Electronic Arts....

Hell no !

He is no Bond at all !
James Bond is stylish and clean, while Craig is dirty and realistic. It's an action film, not a bad one, but no James Bond !

And thus he is more like the Bond portayed in Fleming's novels than his predecessors.

Yet they didn't. So? The current contest legalities are the current contest legalities.

I have a question about the prizes.

If and when I win a prize, does that mean I win the entire stated quantity of that prize? I really don't want to win dozens of t-shirts... Or, are they bundling certain prizes together?

[mattahraw]

Well, I've been checking a countdown for a week, thinking i'd wake up to something cool



then i wake up to nothing.



This was a waste of my time.

Nope, only bigger, thicker ones were made, but I don't wanna get rid of my current sig for it to fit.

If someone would make a slim sig, it could fit overtop my current one.

The point is, if they hadn't advertised it to everyone, it wouldn't have been as bad.

And there is no reason for being so sarcastic.

So much for the hype... Disappointing, truly.

Grats to those who can change their IP addresses. I hope you enjoy the prizes.

No, you are. Just because they COULD of done something does not mean that what they are doing NOW can be changed.
