Unless people getting the correct answers has no effect on me, I'm not helping anyone.
You mean to say you DON'T want others to be valid competition against your for prizes?! but but butt I want to get an Aymur.
I see no reason to post the answers to the questions either. each person who gets the answer wrong is one less person that's competing with me for prizes. Also, will happily give the answer after the event has come and gone.
also
Participation Period:
Wednesday, July 4, 2012 to Tuesday, July 3, 2012 at 11:59pm (PDT) (NA)

Not gonna lie, all I see from what is going on with the contests and the expansion is that SE is a departmentalized company that does not practice diversity. They are still operating by the old JP culture model that other successful JP businesses have abandoned years ago.
Just my opinion though, I'm just an Indiana hick and I could be wrong.

Dunno why people are getting anxious about answering some question.
Will probably be something like:
"Which game is celebrating 10 years of launch?"
or
"What is the name of the upcoming expansion?"
Don't really think it will be something complicated to answer or people would just flip out.

Well I just noticed that there's only going to be a single not JP player able to win the grand prize on this, so that really doesn't seem fair to lump the NA and EU players together in a drawing for a single prize, while having every other rank be unique to each region for the winners drawn.
Hopefully this delay is them trying to realize this has quite a bit of kinks in it on the side where people are lacking the JP Button near their merit tab.

Hopefully this delay is them trying to realize this has quite a bit of kinks in it on the side where people are lacking the JP Button near their merit tab. In all honesty I suspect the culprit to be an NA one, specifically the one that says all sweepstakes must be free to enter.
The mathematical chance of winning X for a JP player who played the bonanza is more or less equivalent to the same chance of an NA/EU player winning X. I know everyone wants to shout "JP BUTTON!" but they've done a fairly good job of leveling the playing field, especially considering they have no such obligation.

Well first off our supposed gobbie bag giveaway is a lot better than the nomad mog bonanza. Theres one winner for na/eu and jps must have all 5 numbers to wink rank 1 with 1 set of numbers. Theres a stupidly high chance that nobody will win rank 1 on the jp bonanza. Nobody won rank 1 last time they did the nomad bonanza. So everyone crying it isnt fair the jps are going to be doing exactly he same "we might have no winner and NA/EU will.get a definate.winner". Its not just us that SE craps on its jps too.

I deal with JPs all the time that think "international" players (non-JPs) receive special treatment. I've given up arguing with them and just tell them they're wrong.
Back when emp/relic/mythic were in the "500 yen" machines, before they were removed, they were far and away the most vocal group about it. Our (NA) thread was a pitiful 2 pages and theirs spanned some 80 pages before it was finally announced the end game weapons were being taken out of the system.
Any possible bitching you can imagine about anything, multiply it by 100, and you'd have a slight insight into how JPs react to the very same information.

| | Hey gang!
Just got confirmation that things are still moving according to schedule (our "in July" time frame) and that prizes should hopefully start appearing in lucky adventurer's delivery boxes soon! I don't have an exact time for you for when it begins, but one thing to keep in mind is that prizes will be delivered in order, so it may take some time before all of the prizes are completely distributed.
We'll make sure to post once we have confirmed that all prizes are sent out!  | |
The sneaky and stealthy goblins were able to infiltrate the FINAL FANTASY XI in-game item vaults and pilfer a ton of items right from under our noses... It turns out that it was all for a good cause because they are creating a variety of Golden Gobbiebags packed to the brim with goodies for some lucky adventurers to take home.
We have prepared a special survey based on the events and announcements of VanaFest 2012 to be posted after the event. By filling it out and answering the “Gobbie” question correctly you will be entered into a competition where you could win one of many Golden Gobbiebags, each exploding with a variety of rare in-game items!
