Me and my brother play 2 different accounts, sorry I didn't said it clearer.

I've been receiving a number of PM's asking me to 'clarify' questions, unfortunately if I was to do so I'd be giving away the answers.

I strongly suggest you read the first post carefully.

This is our first large contest, of course it won't be perfect but we tried hard to cover everything.

Next contest will have more detailed rules, adding more rules now may disqualify people who already sent their entries and make the contest more complex and even unfair.

1 entry per person... so 1 entry per person period, or 1 per account per person? Just wondering.

Also, my old main account isnt suspended or banned, unless by suspended you mean frozen? I had a low limit credit card at the time and a payment didnt go through so its frozen... so is that eligible or no?

As they are stated now, I could have one account (free, at that) on one PC and me and my 7 roomates, each with their own E-mail addresses, could each run 1 character and each enter the contest. That one paid account then has 8 chances of winning. Heck, 24 ppl could have 24 E-mails on that one paid account (3 servers x 8 chars).

This practice of sharing an account is of course against the EULA, FC would not only NOT give you the prize, they would shut down the account...

One entry per E-Mail address...
The E-Mail address HAS to be the one linked to your account...
If you have multiple accounts on the same E-Mail address, this still equates to one entry per E-Mail address...
If you have multiple accounts linked to different E-Mail adresses this means one entry per E-Mail address...!

Nope, since it's not an automated system but a temporary reroute address (to avoid getting spam after the contest is over)

This was not mentioned in the original post. If I had already submitted my entry from an alternate email address, is there anything I should to do correct this? Thanks.

Go by the original post rules.

Hey, I have one small question concerning the prizes.

In the original post, the first prize appears simple; a lifetime account with the works. However, I don't understand the second and third prizes.

"2nd an 3rd Prize winners will have their accounts upgraded which means that if they are currently on the AO promotional free account offer (a fr00b account) they will become pay accounts where monthly fees will apply. " seems exactly the same as signing up whether you win a contest or not, since you pay the monthly fees either way.

Could you clarify how this is different from just making a paying account normaly? Maybe I'm just stupid lol.

If you have a free account you are not paying a monthly fee, but if you win either of those prizes your account will be upgraded with the expansion and you would then have to pay the monthly fee. This doesn't effect you if you are already paying monthly fees.

Difference is in add-ons. Those prizes bring pre-order add-ons like Leet pet and Jobe appartment.

2nd and 3rd prizes seem kinda pointless to me.

Ukblizzard · Post by **Ukblizzard** » Sat Mar 04, 2006 1:59 pm

You could only get the Luxury Apartment and Pet Leet's if you pre-ordered Shadowlands or AI respectively. There are people who really want these things!!

Was there a date by which the account is 2 months old? like 2 months old since Febuary 15th or March 15th?
