When will the winners of Halloween Trophy contest be announced?

[ShockPirat]

I'm talking about this: http://forum.worldofwarships.eu/index.php?/topic/34562-halloween-trophy-submissions/

 

It's been a week already since the contest ended.

[rafparis]

Waiting too... But i think they concentrate more on the APgate now...

[ShockPirat]

That's the job of devs, community managers can't do much about it except write a few posts

[ShockPirat]

Bump. CM answer this please.

[Turbeen]

Yes, I would like to know the results of Halloween Trophy contest too ... may be somebody will inform us soon ...

apparently they are already rewarded, without any transparency or communication.

there was Fujin's from other contests too (facebook), so maybye it's not this.

There were 10 Fujin to win and 10 Tachibanana, i can't believe i didn't win anything, seeing the rest of the entries.

[Nemorhades]

Yes, they had two contest in the same time about the fujin

 

One is already done since last week (the one on FB)

 

But I do not have receive any information about this one

 

CM can answer about that please ?

[ShockPirat]

Grandma, they awarded the ships from the facebook Halloween contest before they released the winner list, but they did release it after all. They didn't release anything anout this contest so far.

 

It is possible the person in that post you're referring to mixed up the contest

[Turbeen]

People already rewarded, without any transparency or communication ??

 

If this is the case, ... sorry WG, ... it "smells".   And I dont trust such "contests" any more.  I have the feelling that some WG employees devided rewards for themselves, or for their friends ... I wont invest any time for next "trophy".

[ShockPirat]

Anyways, I will keep bumping this thread back to page 1 every time it drops off, until we get an answer or the thread gets locked. And if it gets locked I'll make another one

This thread is real Halloween. ... It looks like there are some monsters in WG nowadays ... such as brainless Frankenstein ... .   "Communication" - this is real contest for WG moderators.

 

EDIT ...

Towards some WG moderator:   Me and ShockPirat, we would appreaciate if we get DD Fujin just for our effort to improve WG internal processes / communication. We both dont want to be sarcastic, real professional WG behaviour is much better not only for us two in the long-run. ... Thx WG for your understanding.

[ShockPirat]

Turbeen, if we get Fujin just for this thread then MrFingers should get access to every ship in the game. Those yet unreleased too

 

[Nemorhades]

sure this is the list from the winners about the ghostly prize hunt.

 

 

I hope a CM answer soon

I totally applaud that reasoning sadly I'm a fairly crap player

[Turbeen]

Sorry, but I dont understand, why Facebook is used for communcation of the Halloween contest.  WoWs web or forum should be the primary source of communication.

 

The important fact is, that every participant could use this WoWs forum or Facebook for downloading his work. So ... have been players, who put their pictures only on the forum, included in the evaluation of the contest ?  Im really not sure, I doubt.

 

 

I still expect that the complete list of winners - from 1st to 20th places - will be announced asap.

[MrFingers]

And WoWs web or forum should be the primary source of communication.

That's not going to happen. For reasons WG believes that the forums aren't the most important communication channels for them. They mainly communicate via Facebook and their ingame portal (facebook for the vast amounts of players, and the portal because every player sees the headlines when they log in). The forums are in a lesser degree important, therefor we don't have that many community interactions and contests. I'm a staunch critic of that way of working, but alas that's how they want to work, thus there isn't much we can do about it. The issue has been raised before, and things are very unlikely to change, so we have to deal with it and make the best out of it.

 

The forums are more for the passionate & hardcore gamer/Wows-er who values interplayer communications, discussions,... Some people just want to play the game, without any hassle. That's their good right, and we can't claim to be superior compared to them just because we want to invest time and efforts in communicarion and discussions.

[ShockPirat]

...then again WG employees could post about contests on facebook, the portal, reddit, whatever else they use AND forums...

 

...but I guess that is just too much work

because the contest i forward you was posted on Facebook only and the contest we are waiting for was only posted on the forum

 

i guess it's why maybe some people have receiving some ships last week

"The forums are more for the passionate & hardcore gamer/Wows-er ... " ?

 

Then I would expect that works published for Helloween Trophy only on the forum are much more important than on the Facebook.

Look at the results on the Facebook ... can you see 20 winners ? Me not.   It has been said that first ten winners would receive Fujin, players on the 11th - 20th place would receive Tachibana. ...

And I still doubt that people who published their works only on the forum have been included in the evaluation of the contest.

[rafparis]

but this is the ghostly prize hunt contest, we are talking here about the trophy contest: http://forum.worldofwarships.eu/index.php?/topic/34562-halloween-trophy-submissions/page__st__20

they are two distinct contests.

[ShockPirat]

I JUST FOUND A FUJIN IN MY PORT

 

Winners list will be released very soon I think

 

Edit: and here it is http://forum.worldofwarships.eu/index.php?/topic/34562-halloween-trophy-submissions/page__pid__678273__st__80#entry678273

IS THIS A FUCK1NG JOKE?????

they let their friends win, don't look at the images, or do it randomly?

 

look at some of the BEST trophies:

I'm a profesional graphic designer, so i made something that took me some hours, but looks professional, and made by myself from the image given in the contest: http://www.pudlowski.net/helloween.jpg

 

So, i waste my time, doing something, and they choose almost randomly the winners (some of the best categories are good), or gice ships to some of their freinds?

 

If you don't even review correctly the submissions, but do a quick list of winners, what is the point of making any effort in an artistic contest for WG?

[Nemorhades]

 

The winners were chosen as follows:

 

Top 10 best:

• BHFPatriota
• BierAigTartar_1
• Hispano
• Horstenss
• Israel_HawK169
• Mistel_Z7
• paulcia25
• R_Wolf
• Schiffe_versenken
• vandallo87

 

Top 10 funniest:

• alviz
• Darkbandag
• hugoelmensajero
• karapahuu
• Knattank
• Shadeblight
• ShockPirat
• Trigger_Happy_Dad
• YouBoat
• ZIELARCZYK

 

Thanks for your participation and congratulations - the Fujins are on their way!

 

I'm sorry but that's only 20 and not 40 as promised ...

 

i miss the fujin in the shop because i was waiting after the results of this contest ...

so it mean i need to wait next year ...

Yeah, I also found some of pictures very strange...

One winner literally took a screenshot of the bad advice captain haloween video and posted it... and won...

He edited the picture out now but a friend took a screen screenshot to prove it
