I think the truth is he can't credit rubies to the winners, so all he can tell is: "They're all going to be credited to you in full" - same BS developers told to him

Well, the reason for this off topic is obvious...Mycrotia (US1) said:outlaw_always (US1) said:@BM ang1243 HEY CERTAIN SOMEONE... have you read the bill of rights? I have a right to be heard, son. Get over here boi. And if you delete mah comment, you will be held accountable in a court of law. Ya get that??
He is a Business Student in England. I doubt the US Bill of Rights has much influence on him.
In all reality, these post are off topic. Wouldn't surprise me to see them vanish.
We are used to CM Popeye (may he rest in peace).

Hi all,
I believe the prizes should be credited next week, I've taken the thread off the top of the discussions thread, as the competitions are no longer running.
I've finished creating the forum badge now, so that should be added to the relevant players next week as well, sadly I am unable to credit any of the rewards, otherwise I'd be doing them right now, but the relevant CM will be ready to credit them next week.

Plenty of wiggle room here:

You nailed it @NoPainNoGainFTW (US1). The crediting of the prizes, is clearly done by actual GGS staff. They seem to be as reliable for the BM's as they are for the players.
At least we are getting updates / replies again.......

Drum roll please......
The prizes for all of the contests should be credited later today (Friday 13th), congratulations to those who contributed to the contests, it was great fun running them for you.
But I know the reason you're all really here; you want to know the top 3 for the creative contest! Now, the problem I had was I just couldn't decide on a top 3, they were all just brilliant, so... we were able to expand the rankings so that we could accomodate everyone on the shortlist;
Joint 1st, and receiving 7,500 rubies each: @Wiglema (NL1) and @Xanthos (GB1)
2nd (5,000 Rubies): @Manatee (US1)
Joint 3rd (2,500 Rubies): @outlaw_always (US1) and @Baleraphon (GB1)
Congratulations all, and keep your eyes peeled for the forum badge appearing too

Reason I'm really here is to know how many rubies will be credited to every contributor, to be sure GGS kept their promise.

Nothing here yet.
But there's no hurry. Over the years I've gotten quite used to GGE "speed".

Hi all,
Everyone should have received their prizes now, there was a slight delay because of problems in the back end crediting process, if anyone hasn't received their prizes, message me to let me know, and I can have it looked into.
Thanks everyone for playing the events, and I hope you all enjoy your prizes

Hi everyone,
Our forums are going through a lot of exciting changes currently; we are becoming one big community comprised of players from servers all over the world!
We have thought up some brilliant competitions for you to take part in this week, they are all designed to get everyone working together, some are designed to set you off on adventures around the forum, and we will even have one week-long creativity competition! So there is lots for you all to get your teeth sunk into...There’s always someone who gets
the wrong end of the stick isn’t there!
Now, what would a series of amazing, exciting,
captivating, excellent, thrilling, adventurous,
COMPETITIONS... be without some equally
brilliant prizes to match them?
We decided it was absolutely necessary that
we gave out some great prizes to as many
players as we could... see below for more details.
Prizes!
- For the series of mini competitions each player that contributes a correct answer will be given a total of 500 rubies multiplied by the number of competitions completed in the time given, this means there is a total of 2,000 rubies per player to be won per correct answer!
- At the end of the creative competition, there will be 3 prizes for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd: 1st place will get 7,500 rubies! 2nd will get 5,000 rubies, and 3rd will get 2,500 rubies. All 3 will also get the throne of the community decoration
- Everyone who competes in the creativity contest, and/or the mini competitions will get a unique forum badge never seen before, and never to be seen again!
- The 3 players who contribute the most correct answers over the various competitions will win a throne of the community decoration too!
As each competition is posted, it will be added to the contents list below, so if you want, you can keep checking here for the link to the next contest.
Now, let's all party and have fun!
Competition Contents:
Creative Contest
Spot The Difference
In-game Scavenger hunt
Spot the Difference 2
Forum Scavenger Hunt
Howdy Angus,
You said that everyone who competes in the creativity contest and the mini competitions, will receive a unique badge never seen before and never to be seen again. I understand that all the winners have received their prizes.
I was just wondering when those of us who competed but didn't win will receive our forum badge?
Regards,
Debbie
