Raffles & Giveaways

@Aralas
Sorry to be a wet blanket, but would it be possible to specify the game rules in the Crystal Caverns post? Due to the underlined part I was under the impression that at the scheduled game starting time a staff member would post and only then we would post, but now looking through the previous pages I see you posted around 17:04 FR time about ghe Crystal Caverns minigame starting soon and that was it. In other words, would it be possible to specify that there will be no staff member post when this particular minigame starts and instead we just have to post the minigame-specific message as fast as we can once the time rolls around?

[/quote] Same here! I read that someone of the staff would announce the game, but since everyone pretty much posted their sentences like speedracers I thought it was right to follow them :0

I was under the same impression so I've been waiting.

[quote]First, decide two items you'd like to search for and [u]post after the site time has reached 17:30[/u][/quote] This was posted a lil bit before the event started, but sadly, it seems a few people missed seeing it ;3; I assume it was the first 25 who posted at 17:30 who got in

@HissingNoodle
Glad to see I wasn't the only one. Sad to admit I did not follow the others. That's what I get for trying to stick to the rules. I though everyone was just jumping the gun (is that the saying?) in posting the message. I thought the idea was to follow the thread and catch that staff member post and to post only then, which would make it a bit more of a challenge. Then again, I guess with how we can easily delete our posts you could just spam your message and then delete any posts that were before time? Anyways, looks like you were right to follow suit :). Anyway, gonna crawl back into bed now (almost 4am here) and try to get some more sleep. I'll check the thread for replies (if any) tomorrow.

@TangeloJack @Oratorio

Yeah, I saw. Sadly, at that point already more than 25 people had posted the message so I didn't bother anymore. I'm just hoping the rules will be clarified for the next round of the minigame :). And now I really am off.
P.S. Sorry if you got pinged twice.

@Dewberry that's exactly what i thought...i kept refreshing waiting for a mod post other than the first one, because i didn't realize that was the announcement proper. oh well! my reading comprehension is not very good.

@Dewberry Understandable! And yeah, it seems following suit has paid off, since I saw another post mentioning it was okay to just go. ;u;"
It's currently 3am here, so I feel you xD
Have a good rest! c:

@Aralas no problem and thank you for the clarification!!
