[Nick41324]

[Delphina]

The top 10 winners in the poll! It doesn't matter which Mummy.

I just listed the Mummy so everyone would know which mummy the catchphrase was for.

[Nickyeagle]

Although I wasn't chosen, Good Luck to all the semi-finalists. :)

[nmyxspaceship]

Lol yeah mine weren't that great, good luck guys!

[Roc]

So many good ones! Best of luck everyone! :biggrin:

[maneatingtree]

Lol so confused how were u chosen?

[nmyxspaceship]

Lol I was thinking the same thing? I guess Delphina chose:/

[Buubuuftw]

Looks my Green Guy made it! Good luck to everyone else!

[Silentarrow]

Lol so confused how were u chosen?



STS picked them... I'm not mad I didn't get picked (I never expected to be). I think STS should've allowed all entries onto the poll though.

[maneatingtree]

How do you know buubuu?

[Swimmingstar]

Yay, poll! I will look at these.

[Buubuuftw]

How do you know buubuu?

By the catchphrases, it says your name in parenthesis. As a matter of fact, your a finalist too.

[maneatingtree]

Ohh yay!

[nmyxspaceship]

STS picked them... I'm not mad I didn't get picked (I never expected to be). I think STS should've allowed all entries onto the poll though.

Same, I'm not disappointed at all just it would of hurt to have given everyone a chance though.

[CodyBearr]

Oh wow you guys liked one of mine :D I am honored and half way to a long time goal of getting that shield!

Thank you all dev and anyone that votes for mine :)

Goodluck All

[TheSnowman]

What's gonna happen if there is more than one person tied for tenth place will both get a shield?

Also Good Luck to everyone involved :)

[Basswhole]

Sorry If this is stupid question but why are we doing a mummy contest? Sorry lol

[Roc]

Sorry If this is stupid question but why are we doing a mummy contest? Sorry lol

Some old concept art was uncovered, they had a poll on which one people liked most and also asked for contest ideas, and viola, we have a mummy contest :love-struck:

[maneatingtree]

Oh and btw doesnt show up on ipod thats why i didnt see (facepalm)

[CodyBearr]

Oh and btw doesnt show up on ipod thats why i didnt see (facepalm)


Haha same here I didn't see anything on my phone until I got on the computer :P

[Buubuuftw]

Oh and btw doesnt show up on ipod thats why i didnt see (facepalm)
Didn't show on my Droid either, so I rushed to my computer and saw my name up there!

[Swords]

lol a bummer i wasnt on there, well there goes the chance of the epic shield :p

[Cahaun]

Wish I coulda made it, but good luck to everyone still in it!

[LwMark]

Really -__-

[WoundedEagle]

Good luck!

[Mastercon]

Errr so where do I look to see who got in? I don't see it on mobile.

[xydz]

Whoa I'm in and I'm not doing too bad. Good luck everyone, thank goodness they only choose 1 per person, some of you guys had whole lists of amazing ones.

[Buddahh]

Woop woop! I'm extremely surprised I made it, many thanks for choosing mine! :)
Good luck guys :xx

[WoundedEagle]

Will there be more contests with the shield as a prize?

[Mastercon]

I figured it out, had to be on computer. Shoot there goes my chance, :_(. GOOD JOB EVERYONE!! :)

[Cowgirl]

Disappointed to see this has become a popularity contest... already received pms ig asking me to vote for their phrase. :/

[Ihavenokills]

yep.... agreed..


edit: tbh the one she chose for me i didn't like very much haha im surprised.

[Samhayne]

STS picked them... I'm not mad I didn't get picked (I never expected to be). I think STS should've allowed all entries onto the poll though.

The poll is already pretty huge with the entries we did select. I shudder to think how big of a mummy wrap we would have needed to include them all. Fear not, well have more fun forum polls in the future.

[WoundedEagle]

edit: tbh the one she chose for me i didn't like very much haha im surprised.

Yeah same. But beggars can't be choosers eh? I don't think it's a popularity contest though. I PMed a view people in game telling them to vote in the contest, not directly for me. And the ones who seems to be winning aren't the super popular people anyways.

Ooh u ones me
I'm Archey lol I was asking u questions

[Swimmingstar]

I see they tried to make it more fair by only including one person once.

Yea Sam it'd be a nightmare of a vote. I'm glad to have participated in the contest and stir a laugh or two :)

[Superman]

hi, some of these are funny!

Mummies.

[Livemau]

Best of luck to all of the competitors! I wish I would have entered. Maybe mine will make you laugh

No eyes says I cant see without my glasses
Scooby Doo reference

[Swimmingstar]

Good luck to all the 30 people in the poll!

[maneatingtree]

Lol i love the old scooby doos. Welma i think was missing her glasses. Best lines where: "ru roh raggy" and "if it werent for you meddling kids and your stoopid dog!"

[Imacoolbirdd]

Wheres the list of people who made it??
Edit: nvm saw on computer :)

[Swimmingstar]

I have a question. If people tie does it count as same place? Or will it be all the same place but you skip the next because of tie.

[CodyBearr]

Disappointed to see this has become a popularity contest... already received pms ig asking me to vote for their phrase. :/

^yup this.... I was hoping the Dev's would just pick the winners but I hope people actually like the catch-phase and not the person who wrote it

[Darkfader]

Wow I made it to vote. Good luck everyone.

[Imsebastiaanl]

Thx! Hope I win one shield

[Matutd]

Yay it's finally up ^_^ I hope I can win one, since I just missed out last time

[Ebalere]

Disappointed to see this has become a popularity contest... already received pms ig asking me to vote for their phrase. :/

Yep, frustrating to say the least. I think it should have been the other way around. Poll, and THEN dev's choose. I can't see if one of my entries made it, so whatever I guess, but I wouldn't put it past whole guilds voting for their guildmates, etc.

[PatsoeGamer]

Matutd all the way

[maneatingtree]

Matutd all the way

This kind of suggests that you didnt vote for the phrase rather for te person :(. Knew this would turn into popularity contest :(

[Swimmingstar]

I gotta agree to that.

Sorry you are experiencing problems. Here is your quote they selected:

Green Guy-I'll get the #3 with extra large fries, and a extra large diet MummyDew, I'm trying to watch my figure

[Swimmingstar]

I don't see what's wrong with PMing people to vote for you. Not hurting anyone, is it? You aren't being forced to vote, are you? You could just ignore or delete the pm, can't you? Or you could just vote. I don't see anyone complain on forums that the presidential election has anything to do with them sending mail to you to vote for them.

It isn't really popularity when it comes to pms. It's popularity when everyone likes you and you don't ask them.

[maneatingtree]

But soon pepple will be buying votes and scams could happen. IMO devs should of just picked.

I understand your point. I had one of my good friends tell me not to play my adverts on him when all I said was 'Vote for your favorite Mummy Catchphrase on forums. Mines at the bottom.'

I found my quote most effective and not spammy or annoying. It was just a discrete way of saying, hey, there's a contest and I would appreciate your vote. Thanks.

Some people over react and such but oh well.....

I think saying I'd appreciate your vote is just fine. :)

It's not going to hurt anybody and people have their choice.

[Swimmingstar]

Well as long as people don't keep posting "Oh I voted for [insert person's name]!"
I actually think people who advertise in sig are fine.

[Swimmingstar]

Just realized how much I want the prize. :D

[Martijntje]

too bad I didn't sign up for this! I should have joined the forums earlier :-(

[Swimmingstar]

too bad I didn't sign up for this! I should have joined the forums earlier :-(

You can still vote for someone. And welcome to forums! :)

[Nick41324]

i didnt even know there would be 92 people that would vote...

[Swimmingstar]

Same...

[PatsoeGamer]

This kind of suggests that you didnt vote for the phrase rather for te person :(. Knew this would turn into popularity contest :(

You shouldnt suggest anything without the facts :) I simply like Mat's phrase the most. Don't make an assumption and call me out based on my vote. I have voted on many many many competitions over the year, and voted for many different players :)

The reason I just said the name was because I was quickly catching up on posts, and it was easier to write the name and add a little enthusiasm too in a nice short post :) I hope you do just as well, and get lots of votes also, I liked all the quotes and it was hard to pick one outright.

Just please dont single me out and put me into a class of people who vote on popularity, its not my style :D

[Whirlzap]

Lol my bad phrase got put up.

[Ihavenokills]

whoa...took a jump from 75 - 95 people in an hour or so.. what just happened?

i didn't know we were allowed to advertise our phrase in our signature?

[Nick41324]

I think more people are asking their entire guild to vote for them.

[Cowgirl]

I will probably get flamed for this but... I wonder how many people are creating mulitple forum accounts to vote for themselves.

[Nick41324]

Why would you get flamed? I think people are mainly "campaigning" in game and asking their guild. I've personally seen a few of the 30 people ask completely random people in town chat to vote for them. I'm not going to lie, I have asked a few of my very good friends to vote for me in private messages, and i know a lot of you have too.

Wowzersssssa

[Ihavenokills]

i think so too.. i saw people with 0-1 vote(s) shoot up some in the past hour =\ i reaaaaaaaaalllllly wish this wasn't thrown into a poll..

[Ayc2000]

Lol...my phrase >.<
Good luck everyone!
I'm saving my vote for last :p

[Zeus]

Just my opinion, but I think it would be a good idea to disqualify the participants who are "campaigning" for votes. It may be a bit harsh, but we are going for skill and wittiness, right? So change the wording up on phrases a bit, maybe? Hide the names and only reveal who the quotes belong to afterwards? Just my thoughts, lemme know.

Another thing that STS did in the past with Haiku contests was have them email the entry at support(at)spacetimestudios.com or fun(at)spacetimestudios.com with the (at) replacing the @. It was an intelligent protective measure because it helped keep people from boosting their entries, since entries were rather anonymous (meaning the players did not know who was who, like in the "Where do I play PL?" video contest) Just a thought for future contests with the Pocket Legends Shield as a reward.

That being said, congratulations to the winners of this contest, whoever may win. Y'all truly deserve it! Should be fun seeing more PL shields out and about :)

[Roc]

I'm just having fun getting laughs out of the phrases :biggrin: It was a lot to process with all the phrases in a giant thread. Now there's pretty poll bars AND funny phrases ;)

I know exactly who did it and it obviously didnt work too great becasue they still have... fewer than 5 votes

I also dont think it was very smart putting names with the phrases. It would be completely fair without the names. I think ever if people arent asking others, people are just looking at the names, not the actual phrases

It's a contest for gosh sake not an election

Now wait for somebody with resources to take advantage. Trust me, it could be done :P

[Nick41324]

Am... Am I talking to that person?

I'm not saying you would tho xD

[Thelusiful]

:'( i'm not in the contest!
will be the next time!

[Kees]

I have register to vote here!

[CodyBearr]

Every time I'm in game I get spammed by people telling me to vote for their friend "blank" then I say I'm in the contest to dude -___- non stop... Kinda makes my chances feel gone :-/

[maneatingtree]

Welcome to the forum Kees!

[Kees]

Thank you! I was asked to sign up here and vote!

[WoundedEagle]

Ermm. 2 hours ago the votes were at 111, now at 121 and a lot are on Evildarkfader. Guild boost? What happene :o

[Windwolve]

I was wondering too :S He got like 10 votes in one hour!

[Nick41324]

yep, and people criticize me for being honest and saying i asked 5 friends max to help me out this one time.

[Samhayne]

I don't think there is any dishonesty in asking your friends to vote for you. That behavior is expected. It shouldn't come as a surprise to anyone.

[Darkfader]

After being asked by four different users to vote for them, I'm not going to sit down and hope for win.
Answer to wounded, not guild boosting because I won't have one. Also not forced anyone vote, told them to vote if they want to.

Ofc not. :]
I personally hate game goes like this but when game need to be played I'm all in like others seems to be.

[abc soup]

got sick n tired of the spam in PL with the 'vote 4 me on the forums blah blah blah' in my pm's so much.. that i registered an account on my brothers computer and voted for someone who i wasnt spammed by just in spite so i can finally just tell them sorry i voted already. can the devs add in a "private message off" button in the options? This is startin to get really irritating.

oh btw i was getting bribed to. so add that to the list of annoyances

[Jugernugett]

I honestly have no idea who were the ten who got picked and what ya mean by catchphrase? They have to pick mummies or something?

Yeah I got people telling me "10k if you vote for my friend so & so" or when they find out I'm in the contest they say "100k and I'll vote for you"

I always say "I'm in the mummy contest, go to forums and vote for me if you like mine" :)

But yeah its a bit of a popularly thing along with bribing... Oh well I hope some people like mine atleast :)

Ok, well this is what i got out of what you said.....

You would be in a town and be "Campaigning for votes", and when you would do that, someone offered to give their vote to you for 10-100k. I don't think anyone said anything about bribing, but i know a few people that have been bribing with "THE THANK BUTTON" (not you cody). They have have bribed a player that we all know has been striving for the biggest thank bar without actually earning it like the rest of us. It obviously worked because he is one of the people with the most votes so far.

With all these people pretty much cheating to get their votes, its kind of sad.

[maneatingtree]

btw do we get orange antennae for taking part in this contest?

[Ihavenokills]

BTW: what happens when there are more than 10 winners? (ties for last place)

Lol what if all the people suddenly asked friends to vote and all 30 people tied. :D

[Ihavenokills]

Lol what if all the people suddenly asked friends to vote and all 30 people tied. :D

then we would vote for the voters who voted to see which votes won the vote.


edit: whoa! 30+ votes in the past 60 minutes! people really want that shield! O_O
