[Kestrel]

[TruthSeer]

I'm crushed.


And first.... nope don't feel any better.

[Hathaway]

Don't recognise any of the names offhand, but congratulations to those guys:D

[curtst]

This is jacked. Of the 5 who won. Only 2 have posted. 2 have never made any posts and according the the user search function 1 is an invalid user.

Knew I wasn't going to win. Would have been nice to actually see some names I see around the forums though.

Congrats to the 2 who have at least posted.

[ParkerHayden]

My heart gave out.

[Hagon]

Why you lucky so and so's.... I hate you!

j/k :p

Congratulations to the winners. :cool:

[ob1klone]

This is jacked. Of the 5 who won. Only 2 have posted one only 19 times the other 26. 2 have never made any posts and according the the user search function 1 is an invalid user.

Knew I wasn't going to win. Would have been nice to actually see some names I see around the forums though.

Congrats to the 2 who have at least posted.

You expected it to be any other way. Cryptic knows that all of us who are here now posting alot will be buying the game anyway.

Oh congrats to the lucky SOB's.:p

Oh congrats to the lucky SOB's.:p

lol, and so a new conspiracy is born:p

[Jessalyn]

Congrats to those that won, I'm jealous. :)

[Signalsgt]

When I first got the email, I thought it was a scam. Couple quick PM's with Razor and it turned out to be a very good day. :D

Onward now to continue the good fight of a strict Canon game.

Actually I expected as much. Still don't like it. Think it should have gone to people who posted, and that have a VALID user id.

[buckarama]

Congrats guys, I hate you but congrats! :)

[KirksOtherSon]

Grats to the winners! I didn't expect that we "forum babies" would win the day, and I'm kind of glad that the random selection included _everyone_ who entered, and not just forumites.

Probably a good thing I didn't win. Any semblance of life I now hold would disappear if I knew I could play STO forever, for free. In having to pay the game's monthly fee, it ensures, at least, that I'll leave the house once in a while! :D

[arakkis]

Congrats guys!!

Congrats to you Signalsgt!

And hopefully not a strict canon game. But if you don't like it, I will be more than happy to take your key for ya! :D

[lrdnova]

Congratulations to our Very own ElijahMrE for winning a life time Subscription to Star Trek Online.

Someone get that man some Bloodwine!!

[TruthSeer]

How about if the winners don't post in this thread they are disqualified and new winners are picked?

[RandomRedshirt]

Congrats ElijahMrE!

[Signalsgt]

Congrats to you Signalsgt!

And hopefully not a strict canon game. But if you don't like it, I will be more than happy to take your key for ya! :D

That's ok, I think I'll keep it. :)

Besides, if my friends found out I did something nice for a wingnut I might get lynched. ;)

[TheDart]

Congrats, fellows. :D

[Angelphoenix12]

i knew i wasnt gonna win, if you have 99 prizes id be the only one who didnt win. oh well.
btw grats to all that have won. :D

[skywolf]

Gratz *half-hearted applause* you guys.

You better play, or the rest of us will find you.........

[jsutich]

I am very much excited about being selected :D I have been following the game for sometime now and based on reading the forums each day, it looks like STO will have a great group of players out there. Hey, just because I do not post, that does not mean I have not followed and read up on STO. Thank you again, Cryptic!! I am VERY much looking forward to the release of the game.

Btw, it's a pleasure to meet you all :)

Weird, your user id is showing invalid in search.

Oh well, I take back what I said and apologize to all. Congrats! :o

[Vulcan2125]

Nope, very much a valid user ;)

[ParkerHayden]

Well, I'm depressed now because of all the time I've been on these forums didn't get me this (thought it was still somewhat entertaining).

Meh, I'll stick around still, though.

[curtst]

Nope, very much a valid user ;)

Yes I see lol. Weird, Congrats.

[Allardyn]

When I first got the email, I thought it was a scam. Couple quick PM's with Razor and it turned out to be a very good day. :D

Onward now to continue the good fight of a strict Canon game.

grats dude. and everyone else that won, we are all jealous and promise to show up at your house with hired goons if you try and ebay it.

This is all the more reason to prove that the raffle was purely random! lol
Besides, can you imagine if all 18,000 ppl actually posted on these forums?! If you thought your threads sank off the first page of the forums quickly now... wow. :)

Congratulations to all!

[bobh]

You may notice our winners have new forum titles. Also, Signalsgt's avatar is even more awesome now.

Wow! You can keep the game key.... gimme the title!

[KirksOtherSon]

You better play, or the rest of us will find you.........

Amen! Nothing worse than a winner who doesn't value the prize! :D

If these prizes show up on eBay, somebody's gonna get pummeled (just before we all bid on them, of course!)

KOS

[Mr_Terrian]

Congratz to all the winners...

I hate you all..... :p

[ianobs]

[TheGamer1701]

Well,

Congrats to the 5 lucky Winners.

I wonder how many of those 18,000 Entries were from outside the US.
I want Livetime Subscription Lottery for Europe/Germany! Don't forget us, we're still 82!

[LordDave]

Congrats guys.

[Ravain]

Image this scene

You get slapped hard across your face.

You wonder why your mother was a ferengi as you sulk in envy and jealousy,
And from deep within, your Klingon blood screams for Vengence and Glory!!!

you slowly realize they are (play) Federation, it time to gather the fleet
for today is a Good day to die!!!

In all seriousness,
congrats peeps,

[OneRandomGuy]

*sulks in the darkness, hoping the invalid entry winner turns to be a spam bot* :D

Nope he's valid, he has posted on here. Something must be wrong with the search function.

[jhem99]

Congratulations to the winners. :(

[Vorid]

I must go cut myself now for failing

[Wv65fyNyesWmTy8c]

Congrats to the winners.

[Jayven]

Congratulations to the five winners :)

Honestly.. to the one who commented that the winners hardly post on the forums... when was STO to be a forum based game on how many posts are done?

I'm sad I got in too late to see the competition!

Grats again to those who have the subscriptions :D

[da_Borgs]

When I first got the email, I thought it was a scam. Couple quick PM's with Razor and it turned out to be a very good day. :D

Onward now to continue the good fight of a strict Canon game.
CONGRATS!!!!!

[xcatxaf]

[mrgoo]

Well. I'm happy for the winners. Perhaps there will be more copetitions down the road.

[eddy]

You may have won the contest, but I have something way cooler than you....

[blingham]

Congratulations to the winners, and judging by the posts I've read so far of this thread, it was a fair draw and not dependant on your participation factor. This means that us "post-once-in-a-while" types aren't excluded by default. Good on ya Cryptic for keeping it real.

[ElijahMrE]

Hey Folks!

Thanks for the congrats! It's an honor, privilege, and phenomenal opportunity! I'm very much looking forward to the game and can't wait to work w/ all of you!

See you where no one has gone before!

-E

[djackjr]

Congrats to the winners!!...Oh well I did win $10,000 in lotto last week, so I guess I can afford to by the game.:D

[ngille]

big time conga rats to you guys. While we are all jealous that we weren't the lucky ones, I'm sure most of us here are actually really happy for you :)

[WastedYouth]

Congratulations to the winners!

Cryptic, are you sure you wouldn't like to add a sixth winner? :D

[moxion2386]

Congratulations to the winners

[Ethen_West]

Congratulation everyone.

Now if you five would just follow me.

*Pushes all of them out the airlock*

Mwhahahahahaha!

They better hold another contest.

[Nagilum]

congrats guys. I just hope that cryptic does it right and the 5 that won aren't the only ones playing after 6 months

[crazyeyes2k]

How do you know if you won
:confused:

[Djin]

I rest my case. :(

[Cuddles]

Well done guys. I can only hope they run this for Australia and New Zealand!

[Shades29A]

Well done guys. I can only hope they run this for Australia and New Zealand!

and Europe :mad:

[MajorD]

I admit it, I shed a single manly tear at not winning the prize.

[SelorKiith]

Congratulations to the Winners,

Can't wait for the European Version ;)

[IanD967]

congratulations contest winners :D

[Jayven]

Well done guys. I can only hope they run this for Australia and New Zealand!

Here here! That would be a good day to... celebrate :D MMO competitions always sadden me since they are restricted generally to the US.

[Foss]

and Europe :mad:

Yeah ! Europe too !

Rock'nRoll ! :D

[Davies82]

I hope they do a similar competition for Europe (UK) and other countries.

[Rivaris]

oeeee invalid user and 2 never posted time to check E-bay :D

i hope they do this for outside the US aswell anyways gratz to who have won.

[Virgo]

Gratz to all the winners!

[thor79]

oeeee invalid user and 2 never posted time to check E-bay :D

i hope they do this for outside the US aswell anyways gratz to who have won.

You do realize that most people involved in a game do not visit the forums. So they may have the desire to play but simply did not register until the contest. These types of contests usually get the lurkers to register in droves. So the fact that they haven't posted doesn't surprise me in the least.


Congrats to the winners...I wish I were one of you.

[Hellfire1983m]

I didn't win :(

But gratz to the winners ;)

[njdss4]

Boo. It just would have been so perfect if I had won, being as huge a Trek fan as I am. Now I gotta save up to dish out hundreds of dollars for a lifetime sub at launch? Not ideal.

Congrats to the winners.... who post on the forums...

[djnattyd]

This is jacked. Of the 5 who won. Only 2 have posted. 2 have never made any posts and according the the user search function 1 is an invalid user.

Knew I wasn't going to win. Would have been nice to actually see some names I see around the forums though.

Be glad you got the chance to enter as us lesser mortals in the UK didn't even have the offer given to us :mad:

[Atmas]

Congratz guys

[seifer1212]

Be glad you got the chance to enter as us lesser mortals in the UK didn't even have the offer given to us :mad:

Totally agree with you!

[Captain-Picard]

A few weeks ago, we announced that five lucky members of the Star Trek Online community would receive copies of STO and lifetime subscriptions to the game. We had more than 18,000 entries, and are pleased to announce the winners!

Read more here! (http://www.startrekonline.com/node/89)

You should have chose me as one of the winners LOL! Congrats.

[Tristan_Sierras]

In the (singing) words of Vic Fontaine to a crushed Julian and Quark:

Here's to those who love, not too wisely no, not too wisely but too well,
To the girl who sighs with envy when she hears that wedding bell,
To the guy who'd throw a party, if he knew someone to call,
Here's to the losers, bless 'em all...

Here's to those who drink their dinner when that lady doesn't show,
To the girls who wait for kisses underneath that mistletoe,
To the lonely Summer lovers, when the leaves begin to fall,
Here's to the losers, bless 'em all...

Hey Tom, Dick and Harry, come in out of the rain,
Those torches you carry, must be drowned in champagne.

Here's the last toast of the evening, here's to those who still believe,
All the losers will be winners, all the givers shall receive.
Here's to trouble-free tomorrows, may your sorrows all be small,
Here's to the losers, bless 'em all...


As for the five winners... Congratulations! Yeah, you guys had better utilize those accounts to their fullest potential... :D

[gkeffer]

Congratulations to the Free Five.

However, it makes no difference to me. Ever since I heard STO was coming.......long before
Cryptic got the baton, I started saving $20 bucks a paycheck.
So regardless I will have enough saved to be a lifetime member three times over.
Or have three lifetime accounts:D

[Alekseyev]

Congratulations Comrades, I envy you.

[Gen00b]

Gratz guys.

*crosses fingers for European lifetime subscription sweepstakes*

[hoomes]

Oh well I new i wasn't going to win i never do. Congrats to those who won.

[FamE]

well congratulations to those who won.

a question: will there be something similar for european, in my case german people?

[Malsonic]

This is jacked. Of the 5 who won. Only 2 have posted. 2 have never made any posts and according the the user search function 1 is an invalid user.

Knew I wasn't going to win. Would have been nice to actually see some names I see around the forums though.

Congrats to the 2 who have at least posted.

Am I the only one who remembers Jack saying that Cryptic always puts it's Forum users first.:mad: Seems to me they should have at least had a minimum post requirement to win. At least 10 or so, that way you know the winners are at least fans of the game and not just people looking for a hand out.

Cryptic really dropped the ball on this one. 1st time I lost a lil respect for my favorite game company. :(

[Drakelord]

congrats to the lucky 5. would have been sweet to win, who knows maybe they do this again someday and we have a few more winners. till then I keep checking for the relase date of the game and hope it will be soon.

[CroxPhire]

Not every body that plays games go on forums. Actualy I'd say most people dont. I didnt start posting on any forums until I got my PS3 but I have been gaming 20 years. I have only posted here a few times but I assure you, STO will most likely take over my life :)

This persons comment sums up my position.

[Lostmartyr]

Congrats to everyone who won.

[No1UKnow]

Grats to the winners you lucky sunny beaches.

[Reman]

Congratz...I will be hunting you >.>

[Sorbek]

Congradulations!!! Hope everyone than won enjoys those free subscriptions!!! And definately Kudos to Cryptic for giving them away. Definately a first that Ive ever seen from a company making an MMO.

[dmckey]

well, um, I guess I'll take the high road and say congratz :rolleyes:,,,, oh heck who am I kidding, I have my phasers locked on your ships :p

[VonHelsing]

Congrats :)

[Hitangel]

Gratz ... ;)

[Ravain]

Maybe Cryptic will give a free lifetime subscription every xmas? or even a year, that be awesome

[ICptJackSparrow]

Congratulations to those who won.
I myself entered, and did not win.
I have a questions/comment regarding the game pay to play situation, according to STO's own FAQ on the game posted here (http://www.startrekonline.com/faq)
states, and I quote,
Will a monthly fee be required to play?
We haven't decided on pricing plans yet.

So if they have not decided on whether or not there will be a monthly fee, why would they give a lifetime membership away? Obviously this means they have decied it to be a pay to play game.

I am a bit surprised by this, as I was hoping that the developers would capatalise on some sponsorship from Paramount, or anyone with a vested interest in the continued success of the ST universe in general.

Though this may be the first game I am actually willing to spend money on to try it out, but a demo would be nice regardless, just so we can get a taste.

[Tristan_Sierras]

So if they have not decided on whether or not there will be a monthly fee, why would they give a lifetime membership away? Obviously this means they have decied it to be a pay to play game.

"Pricing Plans" sounded like pay to play to me, and I pretty much expected it. If anything, I usually consider my subscription to an MMO I enjoy like a $15, monthly salute to the developers and staff behind the game. So, yeah, I'm crushed I didn't win, but that money's going towards the company running the game, and those 5 people are still lucky, in my book. X)

As for demos, it seems like all the recent MMOs offer varying "Trial Memberships", ranging from 1-2 weeks. Since this is an excellent way to get new customers/players into the game, I'd be utterly shocked if they don't follow this recent tradition.

[Hugh]

Gratz to he winners.. Now can we have a simular comp for us in Europe plz :)

[Sarek]

Am I the only one who remembers Jack saying that Cryptic always puts it's Forum users first.:mad: Seems to me they should have at least had a minimum post requirement to win. At least 10 or so, that way you know the winners are at least fans of the game and not just people looking for a hand out.

Cryptic really dropped the ball on this one. 1st time I lost a lil respect for my favorite game company. :(

1) I don't think this is even legal without making it a contest. It was a sweepstakes,which have different laws surrounding them.
2) Sore loser.
3) There are those of us who have normal lives, and simply lurk on the boards to see what the latest news is. Does this mean we shouldn't have a chance to win.
4) A posting requirement would have artificially inflated the board with even more meaningless posts.
5) Grats to the winners!

[bloom501]

Gratz to the winners...even tho it wasnt me...:)

[Cheve]

Gratz to he winners.. Now can we have a simular comp for us in Europe plz :)

Yes, please

[Steve88]

It's just a shame, that everyone In Europe, the U.K and anywhere else Didn't even get a chance....

If A new competition Opens up for the same prize and subscription and it's only available users NOT in the U.S or Canada, then that will make up for it...

Still an incredibly unfair competition....

[amoona]

Congrats all :)

[headlockman]

I would like to be the first in line to pay for a lifetime subscription :p

[mcfemtp]

BOOOO!!!! Just kidding grtaz to the big winners!:D

[Pntwrs]

i personally am glad it was random, i hate it when they say it is and all the people who are on 24/7 win. I do wish my name was one of those 5 :).

Gratz to ya all, and yes you better be playing.

[ICptJackSparrow]

well, I at least hope there is an option for a lifetime subscription.
If this game is anything like what I expect, I most surely will start saving up for it.

[Sirjohn45]

well I have learned that no matter what contests etc they know who they will pick. If 18000 entered and only 5 were chosen to me should of been 10-20 maybe to be picked and I agree should of been from people who at least had a valid ID on here.
But who knows why only 5 got picked.....to me I am still waiting on a nice release date of a game that should be a very awesome game as long as they make sure that at least 90% of the bugs are taken care of before game comes out lol....
I have beta tested too many games in past and then when game comes out there are so many bugs that it can drive you nuts.....
But so far love the video trailer and being a Star Trek fan of the 60's yes making me in my 40's I believe this game is long over due......

[Richman12]

Congratz to the winners doesn't change much the fact that other people with a lot of money though could contact the devs and buy the life time subscription though.

[coprnblue]

Awww...sonofabit...er....I mean....congratz! :D

[Elvyne]

well congrats to those who won, but its also time for a official answer regarding the same contest for the rest of your fans outside of the us/can.

[Trekythorne]

In reply to the post above me, i noticed that when i went to apply for the sweepstakes that it was only open to US and canadian residents. I live in the UK and am looking forward to STO's relese now will there be a similar sweepstake i can enter for UK and ireland residents? thats all i want to know =].......................oh and congrats to the winners =]

[Silhouette]

Congratulations to the winners.

Now I have to pay to play :(

Sil

[babykittents]

Thank you, Thank you.. I appreciate.. wait.. I Didn't WIN? *sniffle*
DAMN U!!! *Shutters* I never Win ANYTHING! :(

Well, Congrats to the Winners, may you live short and poor.

Everyone GET THEM IN PVP!!

lol.. *HUGS the Winners (with a knife)*

[Bezurn]

Grats winners! Knew my odds were very slim with the popularity of this site and the title. Now go buy youself a powerball ticket or something and win that jackpot, then you know you're the luckiest person alive :P

[Sikosis]

Congrats to the winners ... pity it was US only ... otherwise I might have been in with a chance ...

[Ensign.Ricky]

Crazy old Cryptic. They're gonna be quite embarrassed when they realize they spelled my name wrong.... :)




jk...Congrats to the Winners. I better see you in game 24/7.

[LandofWars]

I'm crushed.


Cannon to right of them, Cannon to left of them, Cannon in front of them
Volley’d and thunder’d;
Storm’d at with shot and shell,
Boldly they rode and well,
Into the jaws of Death,
Into the mouth of Hell
Rode the six hundred.
.

ummm sounds like Fresh Prince

[doug.t]

congrats you guys i was at the lasvegas convention i saw the trailer it looks sweet

[.Spartan]

Congrats to the lucky SoBs (especially the active ones). On a related note, regarding the titles what if one of the winners intends to play the Klingons does their title change?

On a side note, I hope one can conclude that this contest means lifetime subs will be an available option for players.

[Xoxiss]

like most of these contest, they picked insiders as winners, they only wanted to get an idea of how strong an interest this game was to people.

[fry79]

Big grats to the lucky 5 :)

now just need same for euro ppl

[blarneystone]

Grats guys :)

[Ossiren]

Congrats to the winners!

Seeing as it was U.S only, will there be any chance of people around the world(or just UK) being able to get the same chance? slightly unfair i think!

[Arax]

Big time congrats to those that won, I'm so jealous.

[Ardus]

Lucky *******s...

[mr_spock]

All these illogical emotions, LOL,

Im crushed....now im sad I have to pay for this game

[USS_Parallax]

There must be some mistake. I AM NOT ON THE LIST!!!

[TheMasterpiece]

to be quite honest i think giving a lifetime sub to early forum members who are active and contribute alot would have been better than a random giveaway. thats just My opinion though so take it as you will.

[Atoli]

[Therimose]

I Never Got The Email For The Con Test That's F'ed Up Man I Was Going To Dump Soe For This Game To

[KO_Gilligan]

I won I won

I have a message from the MOD

"KO_Gilligan,

Please notice this warning as a response to your ....."

Oh..... nevermind.
:o

Congratulations all.

[andyivey1138]

Congratulations to the winners! I'll be looking forward to seeing you out there somewhere!

Of course the real question is though, will they get into the beta? LOL...

[Cryptor]

Wow, that's a nice gift, one of the coolest mmorpg IPs free for life.

Gratz

[RobinPhoenix]

Congratulations to all of the winners.

I certainly hope as well that there will be a European contest. Since I'm from the Netherlands and really want to play this game on my PS3 or Mac (the latter will probably take an extra year or two before being released), and with me thousands more... I think it is only fair to not limit contests or special actions like this to the continent of America. :o

[rad87]

when is the next sweepstakes:)

[Wildboar]

I never win anything :(

oh well guess my working to earn it is supposed to pay off in the long run.

grats to the winners. I better not see those accounts end up on ebay :\

[MysticVamPyr]

Lucky *******s!!! The Battles will be Glorious!!

[Modboy]

Only sad that European fans could not join it, so we had no chance of winning. :(

[KNF-Lancelot]

First off, I like to say congrats to all the winners of the sweepstakes!:)

Though it is unofficial as of yet to the winner, but devetaki, a close friend of KNF-Lancelot & KNF-Morrigan; appears to be one of the winners, who is planning to join & help KNF rebuild its fleet in STO. This is wonderful news, and it couldn't have happen to a nicer person. I am very excited to see a great friend of mine actually won the sweepstakes.

I'm sorry for the rest of us who didn't win, but I'm sure those that did, deserve to have won.

We, the admirals of KNF will confirm this winning as soon as we confirm it via our friend, who has just been informed, and will be checking during their lunch break.

Can someone from Crypto please post to us how she would confirm this winning? Will she recieve an e-mail or what? All info would be appreciated.

Thanks and again, Congratulations to ALL 5 Winners!

[devetaki]

First off I'd like to thank everyone for the congratulations! And congratulations to the other members that have won!! I'm very excited to have won! I have never won anything like this before, and can't wait to play!!

After my friend, KNF-Lancelot called me this morning, I came on the site to check to see if I had won, and sure enough I did. However, if I was supposed to get an email, I can't seem to find it. Can someone please let me know what I need to do if anything from this point?

Thanks again all!

[KNF-Lancelot]

PM Razor. The email was sent to the address you registered on the forums with.

Thanks Signalsgt, Devetaki is reviewing the thread, so I'm sure that "First Contact" will be made.

Devetaki, If you go into the UserCP up at the top, go into private messages, you can send a PM to Razor from there.

[ericblacstonn]

Thanks Lance! I figured out before I saw you post and tried to send one, but it comes up saying that the name "Razor" does not exist. Guess I'm back at square one now :)

[devetaki]

A release date has not been published yet for the game unfortunately, hopefully we'll hear something soon! :)

No made up account here :) I have just had a lot happening irl the past few weeks and let the drawing date slip by me :) (how dare me huh? )

[ArkonPhoenix]

You may notice our winners have new forum titles. Also, Signalsgt's avatar is even more awesome now.

So I didnt win? Im not going to play now. :-)

[VainEldritch]

[Ztaesek]

[Cyjack]

Congrats to the winners though.

[Omega1]

[Riker_Xero]

Congrats to the winners.
May you die well....:cool:

[BFsMarvintm]

When I first got the email, I thought it was a scam. Couple quick PM's with Razor and it turned out to be a very good day. :D

Onward now to continue the good fight of a strict Canon game.


Congrats to you and the other 4 :D

[SovWell]

BAH HUMBUG! Just Tell Me Where To Purchase My Own?! I Never Get Anything Free :rolleyes:

[Tulvol]

Congrates to all the winners,


I am wondering if Cryptic is planning on selling a lifetime subscription ?

[TMPletz]

Congratulations to the winners!


I guess this means I'll probably stick with LOTRO, though.

[Manx]

A belated congratulations folks :D

[Pharce]

GRATZ PEEPS! Call me an orion cause I be green with Envy!
:eek:

[Gaellenn]

I'm just arriving, but definite grats to the winners. Any word on another contest? or if Cryptic is going to offer the option of purchasing a lifetime subscription in the future?

[WarriorGuyver]

Any word on it?. and yea if it's not insanely high I'll prolly buy it. so lets hear some prices!

[adamrgiles]

Until I got the latest copy of game informer there wasn't going to be a STO. I signed up on the old site. Now I come here and find out I missed out on a contest. I hope they rerun it sometime.

[Markham_Karis]

Congratulations to the winners! Well done.

[pic01]

it is so unfiar the life time subcription winners i so should have won i can dearly pay for gas and food in this econome

[Traynor94]

This is jacked. Of the 5 who won. Only 2 have posted. 2 have never made any posts and according the the user search function 1 is an invalid user.

Knew I wasn't going to win. Would have been nice to actually see some names I see around the forums though.

Congrats to the 2 who have at least posted.
Yeah... that's what I was thinking... wouldn't it be funny if the people that won lifetime subscriptions only popped by the site once and never came back? I'm still in denial about not winning, lol... it's all good though... I'll pay whatever they ask me to for my monthly subscription when the game comes out... it'll be worth it.

Regardless, congrats to those who won! Make sure you put that subscription to good use! ^^

[Eidolonael]

Here's to wishing on a star for another contest and more winners... Engage!

[James_Harvey]

Congradulations(I didn't enter(didnt know whatw as going down) but i suppose its for the better). well time to pawn off everything in sight (except xbox 360 and computers) so ill be ready the summer after it comes out.
