Just to let everyone know we have credited 500 tokens to everyone who has contacted us with their Social account details for the challenges on March 29th.

If you contacted us but haven't received your 500 tokens yet please post here or resend your details.


On Twitter, my profile / username is Malachan3377.

Edit - I apologize, I just found this information is only needed by Bioware if participants have won challenges.

Just to clear up any confusion. We are direct messaging people on Twitter if they have won. This message was to say the tokens for yesterday had been given out and to remind people who had been messaged to contact us as there are a few that haven't.

Are the winners bases on luck of the draw pretty much? I was just wondering because you guys are getting so many tweets and i don't see how you could read and judge them all based on the criteria you provided.

I was wondering as well whether or not if responses are at all judged based on their answers and whether or not the challenges require a right answer (like a challenge where you might finish the quote from Dragon Age straight from the game) or if creativity has a factor (like you could finish the quote however way you wanted.)

idk, i just know i tried hard to come up with creative answers, and i see people claiming they won with 1 or 2 word responses. I want tokens so bad I want the dragon age PC so much haha, it would be like my most prized posession.

Make sure you are following @biofeed on Twitter otherwise we can't direct message you.



For how we find the winners, we take a random sampling and then judge from those. I think on average we are getting about 2000 submissions per challenge.



We are sending out the messages to the winners from today now. Hoping Twitter doesn't block us for spamming. :)

Thanks for clearing that up. But essentially what your saying then, is those rules and judging criteria are worthless. People spend a good amount of time and are actually creative, put up a great tweet, and it means jack **** because your not judging everyone equally.



Your just taking a random handfull and then judging those. So you get people that just cram all the tags into one tweet and say "I like milk" and they win because they were the least crappy of the batch?



This whole "EVENT" just keeps getting worse.

Will all the challenges be on Twitter?

Or will some be on the forum?

Is there any chance of a single thread that gets updated with the most current challenge?

I have a better idea: how about naming all the country which can't participate?

Yes all of Chris' challenges will be on Twitter. Right now we are doing questions every 2 hours but that might change.

Have to take a break on sending out the direct messages as we hit our limit on Twitter. The rest should go out later tonight.

Try job hunting in this economy. I search far and wide for want ads, collecting them from CareerBuilder, Monster, various other sites, the Civil Service, mailing lists, trade journals, any personal contacts I can. I sit down with the ads, I look 'em over, pick out each little point on the duties and requirements. I tune my resume to hit every last one of them in some way, while making sure I don't stretch the truth too much. I find the company in question, and look through their website seeking information on their mission, vision, history, patronage, etc., put all of this together into a well-written cover letter that tells them exactly what they need to hear, look it over very carefully for any typos or mistakes, then finally put the whole kit and kaboodle together- sometimes filling out some online forms, which may include rewriting my entire resume a secon time to fit in their fields- and send it off to HR...

... where it gets tossed into a pile of 7,000 others and placed before some unpaid, untrained, uncaring intern who takes about 20 minutes to throw 9 out of every 10 in his recycle bin without even a glance, skims over the remainder finding reasonable excuses to send them along likewise, then delivers a nice, neat pile of about 20 or so to some random drone with a necktie who doesn't really know the position for further evaluation before returning to his desk to hang out on the BioWare forums all day.

I do this 3-5 times a day.

By that same general principle, you spend 20 minutes 4 times a day trying to come up with a marginally-witty comment that may slightly increase your chances of winning some cool but ultimately disposable luxury goods in an online contest, only to have your hopes cruelly dashed.

Feel a tiny little bit of my pain, mofo.

I'm unable to participate in any of the challenges so far, as it's all out of my time zone. :-(

...I'm quite aware of that, I was merely posting here in case my email didn't go through or I gave the wrong info, there's no need for someone to tell me that. It's not like I'm in here complaining about it. ~_~
