There need to be strict internet laws regarding the proper usage of week long countdown timers!

I knew it wasnt going to be a game release with e3 a couple months off

I'm from Asia. We usually aren't included in any promos by American-based companies. We just got kind of used to it. ^^



I'd really suggest encouraging instead of putting this down - gaming companies don't often get cross promotions with good prizes.

Thanks for the hype.
I see not even Canadians can enter. Well, no wonder Europe isn't eligible, with all the countries and different laws. But honestly, why bother creating this big countdown to everyone and screaming around how epic it is, for something allowing only a fraction of the community participate.

That's kinda of a slap in the face, I'm wondering why I'm so proud BioWare is Canadian, clearly not so much anymore.  

[Efesell]

I would have thought the "it's a game" speculation would have ended with "epic community event!".

Hah, funny how so many people would have preferred a simple announcement of:

Game X to be released on [date]

BioWare and it's sponsors could have saved themselves some money

Even if I was interested in the auctions, I wouldn't take part because I DESPISE twitter,

LOL, it's true.

We were all joking that it was going to be new forum avatars or something else equally lame...as it turns out, that would have been massively better than what we actually got.

Ah well I'm off to bed now too bad they didn't give to the rest of the damn world.

Basically what they did was:



Countdown and event where we have to grind tokens so that we can then bid on 412 different prizes - although most people will bid on the PCS - that we want, unless you're located outside of the designated states in the US. Then you can grind the tokens up but not actually do anything with them because you're not included within the, "Bioware," community.

First I thought that this is a great thing. Than I read the contest rules, which says: europeans, GTFO!



Good luck to you, fellow RPG fans in the US.

Thanks!  I got way more of a sense of community spirit from that video and music than from this so-called event.  You really did cheer me up!

[Cancermeat]

all in all its just another brick in the wall.

Thanks, great idea! At least we have a top-notch anthem!

You know reading about it kind of looked interesting, then I saw the rules and realize I can't enter because I'm from Florida. Why the hell are Florida and New York, two of the largest states, excluded from this? I mean hell, out of the entire world only 48 states can particpate? Why?

Brilliant! Lucky enough to live in Los Angeles, but I'm Dutch - so I feel your pain!

[Cancermeat]

By the pricking of my thumb something wicked this way comes.

[WARDEN9652]

well even though im in the US and already have 5700 tokens, i will not be participating in this because i dont care for twitter or myspace bs.

[MoSa09]

There is a strange concept called honesty: simply call it an "epic us-citizen community event" and no one would complain. Well, except the ones living in NY and Florida i guess.

My sympathies for all who stayed up at night or waited anxiously just to see that they get screwed. The only epic here is the failure.
