Someone already bid 10,000 on a single t-shirt. Wow.


Yeah, I know, I may be in trouble with this auction if that's what a t-shirt is going for.


Seriously, I hope this doesn't end up becoming one or two people with a ridiculous amount of points winning this whole auction


Well they did say no one can win more than 2 prizes in the auction, so that helps a bit.

10000 for t-shirts, I only have 6000 and I have ME2, DA0 and Awakening registered....how do poeple get some many points? registering a copy of each game for each platform and spamming every forum and social site they go to with their url referral link?

Same here. 10,000 points just for a friggen set of shirts!? I'm guessing that those PCs are going to be going for over 100,000 points. I don't even have 10,000 points total. Guess I'm going to have to settle for trying for something very small, like those Dragon Age books.

You can only win two items, Mr. Sarcastic. Hopefully these guys with a crap load of points go all out quickly.

How do people even get that many points? Jeez! I hope people start running out and I can get something cheap at least.

We want people to have access at 24 hours per day. We have fans who work mornigns, school at night, etc. So, yes, items are available 24/7.

And yes, I can promise you that at least 1 PC will be available "at night". Cuz I loves me our night-dwelling forumites.




:devil:



This makes me happy, Chris. I just woke up for the contest.

Yeah that is a lot of points. Hopefully they won't all go up that fast.

Your optimism is delightful.
If people are willing to spend that much on shirts, then it follows that there are people lurking in the background with an ungodly amount of points for the high end stuff.

I assumed from the beginning the only things I would get close to would be the books hopefully I can get all 4 in one pack

Although I can see the PC and Laptops going for :o prices

They get 50 people to click their referral link each day for the extra 500 points. So, at the very least, there's people with at least 13k or so points.

Something else to consider: This is the FIRST auction on a 5 day event that goes 24 hours a day!



My point? People were a little antsy and maybe jumped the gun a little. I expect bidders to get a bit more frugal with their tokens as the hours and days progress.

I dunno, I personally want something wearable the MOST. There are folks who already have games and gadgets and stuff, so I'm not surprised to see apparel being popular. *shrugs* Everyone got their own prize preferences.

I don't put anything past some people now a days. It just seems a little off balance to us "regular" gamers. At least they only get two wins.

Someone has supposedly exploited their fanbase and made 40k tokens and plans to bid on one of the PC's so this isn't all that shocking.

Seriously, I was hoping this WOULDN'T happen but surprise surprise, it did.

*sigh*  Is there 'ever' going to be a fair internet contest?
