Live Q&A - Winners

This give away was only for russians as usual?

Nope. It was for everyone. And no, we can't have a giveaway for every community separately. Lemme tell you why. Because while the Russian and English communities are HUGE, the other communities are pretty small. That means that each player in those communities would have a CONSIDERABLY bigger chance of winning a prize than any of you or any of the Russians.

 

I'll give you an example using simple numbers. Let's use these imaginary numbers:

 

RU Community: 5,000,000 players

EN Community: 3,000,000 players

DE Community: 100,000 players

PL Community: 50,000 players

BR Community: 80,000 players

ES Community: 20,000 players

 

Again, these numbers are hypothetical, and simply for illustrative purposes.

 

If we run a contest where all communities are in it together, a player would have one in 8,250,000 chance of winning. But EVERY PLAYER would have the SAME odds. Sure, the Russian COMMUNITY (as a whole) has a better chance of winning. But who cares??? The important thing is that YOU as a player are getting the exact same odds as every other player in there. Sure, you could argue that players with many alts get a better chance, but if we get into that discussion there's no end to it.

 

On the other hand, if we run contests for each community individually, here are the odds:

 

RU player would have one in 5,000,000 chance of winning

EN player would have one in 3,000,000 chance of winning

DE player would have one in 100,000 chance of winning

PL player would have one in 50,000 chance of winning

BR player would have one in 80,000 chance of winning

ES player would have one in 20,000 chance of winning

 

In this case, yeah, there would be an equal amount of prizes for each community. But YOUR chances as a player would not be equal to the chances of a player in the BR community. In fact, they'd be considerably lower. I don't think that's fair, which is why we do things the way we do them.

 

Yes, sometimes we run a contest for RU individually, and then another contest for EN, PL, DE, BR and ES bunched together, because the amount of players would roughly equal the RU community. But that's the extent of the separation, and I think that's fair.

Looks like he did 1 out of the 500 something.

 

But did you see that PoRRuT4ick has managed to have at least two entries for the same account?

 

- this my nick: PoRRuT4ick

- this is my nick: PoRRuT4ick

 

Who knows how many times he entered his/her nick this way.

 

Looks like we need a new winners Mr Cedric, because PoRRuT4ick messed up the whole list.

Atleast 3* actually, since he posted those 2 above, and he definitely posted 'PoRRuT4ick' since that is what he won with :/ nice catch :)

Can't take the credit for that. A number of players reached out to me to inform me. It totally slipped under my radar, probably because I had to juggle so many things.

Another mistake from me. I forgot to click the "Direct" button, so I accidentally sent it out to everyone -_-

 

I've already deleted the alert now. It was only visible for less than 30secs. You were just lucky enough to see it lol.

Hi,

 

That had completely escaped me. @PoRRuT4icK has been duly disqualified. The new winner is @Feel.My.Style. I've updated the announcement accordingly. Once again, my apologies for the mix-up. Mea culpa, mea culpa, mea maxima culpa.

Hi.

 

It's not all your fault, it's the software that should block those type of entries. Tell them to fix the drawing software to not accept spaces and special characters like ':'. 

 

We noticed about the triple (+) entry in this case because it was in the picture.

 

Thanks.

===UPDATED WITH ADDITIONAL WINNERS - UPDATED===

 

Hi all,

 

As announced, since the 50k and XT tank were won by helpers, I've decided to randomly pick two players from the list. Here are the results:

 

The 50k crystals prize goes to , while the XT tank goes to @Feel.My.Style (apologies but the fist name I picked @GT-LoBJa did not have the required minimum rank to get the XT equipment so the player has been awarded 10k crystals instead).

 

NOTE: The original winner @PoRRuT4icK has been disqualified as I found out he tried to cheat our system.

 

Screenshots are in the spoiler below:

I'll be contacting the XT winner to hear his/her preference.

 

Thanks again for participating in the giveaway, and my apologies for the hiccups.

 

 

um I didn't know about the random prizes thing :(

Um "fist name", huh? :p I never realized that group of words actually existed

You're too late. Giveaway was for the people following/watching the live stream. It's over now. Next time make sure you're online when it happens.
