Peelyon 419 Report post Posted June 4, 2012 Think my guild is upto 5 prizes total and Im yet to win! Doh Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Damien 1,533 Report post Posted June 4, 2012 I tried to check Yes and Yes, but it didn't let me! You just have to enter the contest again and hope to win! Depending on the turnout, it's 1 chance out of 300 or 400 :P Note that on Twitter, we have a lot less people entering, so the chances to win are higher.

Lolwtfjacob 12 Report post Posted June 4, 2012 What's the link to the twitter? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MadMonk 156 Report post Posted June 4, 2012 twitter.com/icyveinscom Is the link to the icy-veins twitter page. You can find it on the icy-veins homepage on the left side. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VendettaVera 5 Report post Posted June 4, 2012 MadMonk is crazy. There isn't a Twitter. They don't hold Twitter contests either. Don't bother looking. >.> 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Peelyon 419 Report post Posted June 5, 2012 I think its rude that the guildies of mine that have already won something keep re-entering! Very childish, they need to share the love more Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Redcross 61 Report post Posted June 5, 2012 Don't share the twitter link! The more people who know about it, the less chance I have of winning I watch that Twitter feed religiously every Sunday evening at about 8:00pm (UK time) .. frantically pressing F5 over and over... only to have my hopes cruelly dashed each and every week. One day..... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Peelyon 419 Report post Posted June 5, 2012 Will everyone stop mentioning Twitter The first rule of Icy Veins Twitter Competition is never to mention Icy Veins Twitter Competition! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Peelyon 419 Report post Posted June 10, 2012 Someone put Damien in charge of giveaways! This weekly loot roll is like my WoW loot rolls! Always between 1-10 and the pug hits a home run 95+! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Alierya 97 Report post Posted June 11, 2012 Haha - it is true that the pug always wins! I think one week we almost cried as a pug shammy got 5 peices. However he then asked to join the guild so it makes it all ok... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Alierya 97 Report post Posted June 14, 2012 Just spied on facebook the weekly giveaways have now been banned... Glad that they shall be available through the forums but it's not quite the same time! Spoilsports (facebook that is). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Peelyon 419 Report post Posted June 14, 2012 Must be a real shame for you guys having to mess around. Will you still be able to "promote" the prize giveaway without actually holding the "likes" on Facebook? As in host a link via your Facebook page to your forums, or will you have to completing stop mentioning prizes via Facebook? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MadMonk 156 Report post Posted June 14, 2012 E. Promotions iii. You must not condition registration or entry upon the user taking any action using any Facebook features or functionality other than liking a Page, checking in to a Place, or connecting to your app. For example, you must not condition registration or entry upon the user liking a Wall post, or commenting or uploading a photo on a Wall. Apparently you're not allowed to condition entry on liking a post. But it doesn't say anything about promoting a contest on a forum. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Damien 1,533 Report post Posted June 15, 2012 The reason why we were doing it with people liking the post is because it was the only Facebook interaction with which we could easily draw a winner. For example, we can't access the entire list of all the people who like our page, so we can't randomly draw someone from there, even though that would have actually been allowed by Facebook rules. So we will just think about something fun to do on the forums, but it has to remain easy so it draws people. And we will promote that on Facebook, there is nothing wrong about it ;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
