aww thats a shame, were there anythings in particular you didnt like about my entries?

congrats to all winners btw

[Tarquin]

Congrats to all the winners! Lots o fun stuff in there.

also Thanks for the vote! Woot!

[AcidRain]

Wow, I actually won? Awesome

Gratz to all the other winners, and to those who didn't win, it was a good battle! I really enjoyed a lot of the other comics, even those who didn't win. They entertained me, so feel good about that, you all did a super job!

[Arathius]

I can't believe I won one... after a month of entering contests I was sure I was meant never to have those codes. Thank you guys so much, I was sure I wouldn't win this.

I doubt I'll ever leave my Tyrael pet in the bank, in fact I may just have him out every day I play.

Congratulations to all the other winners, almost all of them were good in my eyes, so I'm sure they all must have gotten pretty close.

Thank you all again, now I need to go in game and tell all my friends the news lol.

[Bouvi]

Awesome job all!! Was a lot of fun.

dont feel bad i feel some people were going to win no mater what they posted

looking at the winners most are good and should have won but some makes you think

[chauronity]

Yeah I mean come on really? I spent at least a good 10 hours spending time making my four comics, showed to my friends and they all liked it, thought they were better then the majority of the other entries on the website and here I am seeing comics that look like they were slapped together in 30 minutes with little to no effort in the dialogue.

It's stuff like this i'm taking about
http://www.bouvi.com/sigs/Chuck1.jpg

No offense to the artist or anything, but realistically I spent hours on my comics and It really makes me discouraged when my entry's are out of consideration to comics like that. Don't get me wrong, i'm not discouraged that I lost the competition competition, but that my comic's weren't judged on the fair basis I thought they weren't going to be judged by...

And im noticing a couple of addon authors being winners for this contest, I thought there was a seperate giveaway for addon authors for WOTLK keys. I really think that people who weren't addon authors should of had more of a chance to get the key which addon authors had another method of accesing.

But either way, hard feelings aside...congradulations to all the winner =D
I think this contest is going to be the last of my WOTLK beta key contests.
But hey, im happy for all the winners. =D

yeah last one for me too i was thinking would be a even contest but its just another wowiki and wowhead case


gratz to the people that won that should have won even bouvi cause i liked his lol

[Zirconium176]

Congratulations winners! Well deserved!

[Hanakabo17]

I agree with Dimencia that Addon Authors get their own beta key, so addon authors shouldnt be entering in this contest. I mean, i know some wanted just the mini tyrael, but all i wanted really was beta.

Sorry I tried to keep quiet but... Did you notice that was not the only one I did? I did like 13 or 14 entries. That was probably not the one that won it but it was where the chuck series started. Plus I did 2 others besides the chuck series.

I am not going to apologize for winning as I worked for it. Putting up 1, 2 or more a day. I am a very busy person with a full time job, own a martial arts school, have a family. So my few minutes I could spare to work on this was valuable time.

Again sorry but this kind of burned me. Again congrats to all the winners.

[Drazzii]

So, has any of the winners received an actual beta key yet? Just curious

I liked this one of yours chauronity and it did get my vote http://www.wowinterface.com/forums/s...1&postcount=52. It had a simple funny story with good art work imo.

The others I found either a little confusing or not really on topic. Either way you had at least my vote if that means anything.

[Hanakabo17]

Ah, well...i sincerely wish that my comics could have at least been in good enough quality to be readable. The horror of realizing how crappy your comic looks after uploading is an incomparable horror to say in the least. guess im gonna wait to start my death knight with the 2 thousand other people on Dragonmaw

Congratulations to all the winners! 13 of the winning entries were on my personal list of winners, one extra gratz to you guys =)

Also a congratulation to Carienn and Wowinterface for a very nice competition!

Now I'm going to reread all the winning entries and enjoy them =) and try to find the funny parts of those I didn't quite get earlier.

TomWolf

PS. One extra gratz to the 7 that wasn't on my personal list of winners as well...felt wrong to not include you there....

[TomWolf]

After reading all the posts here I wanted to write a killing response to some of them but....I won't =)

I'm just to thrilled that I've found a site that I didn't feel do anything wrong during the entire competition. When there was a delay in releasing the winners we got good word from the contest admin, she waited for more votes to come in to ensure as little favouritism as possible, contest closed at the time it was supposed to, wrongful entries actually got word about that asap....it's been a pure joy taking part of a competition here.

Even if I don't agree with all the entries...hey, I didn't expect to. In an election where you win by 70% of the votes there are still 30% out there who thinks the wrong guy won....and if you are 5 people in the election and win by 40%...then more then half of the voters think the wrong guy won. Nobody will agree with all the winning entries when there are 20 winners. That's just something we have to deal with like mature people.

Again, thanks for the competition Carienn. I'll do better the next time =)
