Yeah, Remiem just broke whole contest. Im mad, cause i could have spent one day on doing something funny instead of seeking the dragon enclave pets for example lol
I have just checked: 460ppl has 19post and 50 ppls has 18, so checking the logs for that 50 are easier than chaning the rules.
What is for an unfair people work to get hard around the screens and all 20 days to meet ...und just because who forgot a wrong screen or a screen is their own people into debt and have so with no right to the ring or in General on the contest ...und that rule at the last moment changed is I think just is still unfaiand really unfair to the people the of beginning on everything met all 20 haben...die people that one pic is missing or just have used a wrong day made the opportunity take the people the ring to get it up to the end fulfilled have sts ...also the rule...rule not unfair and changed just as you want until none are because to keep a ... you need to make so please change again
It is unfair to post a contest with one set of rules and then on the last day of the long contest to then change the rule.
If it is desired to include more people in the chance to win the arcane ring, then how about adding another ring to account for the extra people? One ring would be for people who entered all 20 days. Another ring for people who entered at least 19 days?
Although, the people entering all 20 days went to extra lengths to ensure they abided by all the rules of the contest. So really, they ought to get the expected reward or have an extra reward. So possibly 2 rings for the people who entered all 20 days.
Js.
This is the best solution for all parties I think :)
People who posted all 20: WIN because they had a chance for 2 rings, instead of only 1.
People who posted 19: WIN because they now had a chance for a ring, instead of only shards and teeth.
STG: WIN because they satisfy more people and an addition of ring as a prize won't change much to their income from locked crates.
Disclaimer: I posted all 20, but I incorrectly posted a day (cocoon). But whatever the rules that will be the final ones, I don't care that much. I'm not that lucky anyway, that's why I never open a single crate, lol.

Umm I guess none of you read the posts above you. This idea won't work. As you can see there are only about 50 people who posted 18 days and 460 people who posted 19 days as of today. So even if you add 2 rings to the 20 day pool the odds for them are still 4.5 times lesser to win a ring than the people who missed a day. I'd rather have 1 pool with 2/3 rings because IMO the people who didn't enter everyday don't deserve better odds. Peace

Absolutely not. Why? Because
1 if you entered and didn't see your daily pic on master, email the dev or post in discussion thread. Not hard and if you truly wanted to win you'd take two more minutes to do this and ensure your image was received. I had to do this and Delph checked for me. Problem solved. If you didn't see your deposit go into the bank I'm sure you'd phone them, same thing.
2 if your holding a contest you will go back and collate the information. All they need to do is post what they have found, give 24hr notice to notify of any discrepancy with proof you posted. ie screenie of your pic posted. I'm sure we are all understanding enough of this to wait an extra day or two for results.
Yes mistakes happen esp because mods were switched mid contest but it is NOT a reason to change rules and screw everyone that made every effort to abide by rules all 20 days and follow through to ensure they were received.
Last note non related to your post. For all you people saying what about people who had some real life issue and couldn't do one day. Well, there's 24hr in a day and many people here have had "real life issues" to deal with and still made 20 days. So quit whinging.
To STS, and ban me if you want because after this disgusting display of disregard to the people who make your work possible I don't think I much care, but you change the rules literally last minute. What were you thinking? No one knows because nowhere in all of forums have I found an explanation to why you would do this. Maybe if we knew we wouldn't be so agro. Did you think it would make us happy to compete with even more people who couldn't, for whatever reason, meet the rules we adhered to that were set out at the start of the competition? No sane person would think this would go over well.
As for additional ring prizes etc. I have posted all 20 days and even if I had won teeth or shard I'd be stoked. So why should someone who didn't post all 20 be upset if that is all they could win? You want to make up for possible errors being made, fine, but add extra shard or teeth.
I stop now and find safe place to go scream and maybe delete PL, SL, DL, Al. I'm really.... Idk the words to describe how I feel about this but I'm sure I'm not alone.
...
Sorry one more thing. I personally would like to see the collated info to ensure the final standing of myself. Maybe others would as well before winners were announced. Obviously this leaves room for endless arguments regarding peoples post but if you set a 24hr limit to notify of any discrepancy I'm sure this would make people happy and not delay things to overly long. Just an idea. Thanks for listening.
...
I was just told about this rule change by some guildies as they are angry! I haven't entered the contest but am disgusted .... This is awful! Is sts forgetting THIS IS AN ARCANE RING PRIZE it's suppose to be hard and people that have done this challenge everyday are now going to have more contenders because some people couldn't do it? I know people that logged in especially to do the screenshot of the day .... Seriously BAD move. But hey is this another shady move by sts, changing rules on the last day lol .... Seriously WHO DOES THAT
#whatwoulddelphdo springs to mind .... Jus sayin
A quote from the original post
The person who will win the ring will need to show dedication and enter the contest every day! This contest will run similar to the Holiday Arcane Pet Contest! You will have 20 days of challenges.
I think remiem is trying to avoid to find all the people that did all 20 days and that will take too much time for one person. But still it is super unfair and although the majority of people here are against StS is not going to fix it as it seems so I really don't know why you do it guys
I think i was not being clear with the idea (not mine) for additional ring prize.
Let's assume there are 50 people who posted for 19 days and 460 people who posted for 20 days.
Solution no. 1: revert to original rule.
People who posted 20 days have 1 / 460 (0.217%) chance to win an arcane ring.
People who posted 19 days have 0 chance to win an arcane ring.
Solution no. 2: stick to new rule.
People who posted 20 days have 1 / 510 (0.196%) chance to win an arcane ring, which is merely a bit less than solution no. 1.
People who posted 19 days have 1 / 510 (0.196%) chance to win an arcane ring.
Solution no. 3: add an additional ring ONLY for people who posted 20 days.
People who posted 20 days have 1 / 460 (0.217%) + 1 / 509 (0.196%) chance to win an arcane ring, which is around double odds compared to solution no. 1 and 2.
People who posted 19 days have 1 / 509 (0.196%) chance to win an arcane ring.
If we choose solution no. 3, everybody wins. As I posted my disclaimer several posts above, you may see my post as a subjective one, but everyone is entitled to their opinions :)
And also, this math is done by using inaccurate numbers (not counting invalid posts like my cocoon, lol), but you can see my point.

The rules clearly stated though that 20 ss were necessary for the ring.
I do think that changing the rules at the last second is pretty bootleg. Its like saying "i know we hosted this contest... And you followed the rules to the T, but we don't care. Everyone has a chance to win."
Major snub IMO and I also will probably not participate in the contests in the future. Just out of principle.
Aed, this thread is peacefull comparing to This in General Discussion, Elitefamily seems to completley misunderstood whole situation...
But yeah... Contest seems to be... preety... broken now lol
I BET, someone who posted 19 days will win arcane ring if Remi won't change that decision back.
---------------------
One of mightiest reasons for forumwar for this 2014 year..
Well, I did not omit a single day so far (today is yet to come) but I welcome that we have one day as a reserve because I heard for example something about changing rules on the 4 dragons day.
As many others I took a pic including old classic dragon pet (they are called dragons even in the AP list, yes?) and today I hear that perhaps only Tindirin dragons count? I really can't be hanging in the forums during the entire day and check if the rules from the morning are still valid in the evening.
Not important if it's so or not - I welcome to have one day as a reserve if my post is not approved due to any reason.
I worked as hard as all of you others (did not omit any day) but I don't feel any hatred towards STS that they perhaps introduce one day as a tolerance.
Just make it simple like my post above.
Pool 1: 20 days only
Pool 2: 19 - 20 days minus the winner from pool 1.
So one person can only win one prize, either ring, shard, or teeth.
Disclaimer: I don't like the new rule too, despite I was in 19 days group. So my proposed solution is add an additional ring (with simple rule above) or simply revert to original rule.

Rules never changed, King. Those dragons do count provided there is only one of them in the picture. The instructions did say 4 different types and a mod clarified this that day too.
If anyone had a doubt they only had to check. Instructions were straightforward anywa

Hie. Juz wanna say this..
on the contest. Not sure what day. You need screenshot with warmonger, dimensional gladiator, filthy rich, haunted, elite and paragon.
Me and my guild. We dont have that much awesome title.. for that day I have a rough day. And I work hard to find player have that title. And even beg for screenshot with them, well u know there a player busy with thier own thing or maybe quest, so its really hard to get this screesnshot.
But I work hard for whole day to find player. Not 1 or 2. But 5.. 5 random people I dont know, its very rough day for me.
At last I found good player that willing to share that title with me. I wanna thank them so much..
AND now.. you said thats people who skipped one day have a chance to win arcane ring too..
Seriously its not fair.. and its sad too. If I know this happen I will skipped that rough day..
But coz of the rules. "That only 20post can win ring" I keep trying and trying. Hope sts would understand this.
:(
It's cool dude I see what your saying but really y not just stick to original rules, that's one issue. Second, why offer them a ring, why not offer more chance at shard or tooth or add a dragon bar... Anything but a ring. I think everyone's upset because the change in rules. If we knew we could skip a day then most people probably would've. It's about integrity a d standing by your decisions to enforce the original rules not change them last minute to cater to others.
...
Ok,
For all those players getting their hopes high since they had one INCORRECT entry, let me tell you the rule is applicable only if you MISS on one day. And by all means missing a day is not equal to incorrect entry unless STS decides to change the meaning.
Like Serancha posted this might be given for a chance to make up for that missed entry in master thread, but I distinctly remember DEVs making up a thread for players to check if anyone had any post missing and the entries were corrected for whoever complained . I myself checked my entries that day. "Real life problems" are never acceptable during a competition, especially when the prize is arcane ring.
If the rules were to be changed they should have done it within one week and NOT ON LAST DAY. It is unacceptable and unfair. I hope STS decides to revert back this change.
And if the rule is changed I am sure the winner's entries will be checked definitely by all players here and I sincerely hope that the winner doesnt turn out one with one missing day(or incorrect entry,if both mean the same) cause then a lot of players will cry foul and demand for an answer and I hate to see players leaving this game over one stupid decision.
There are a lot of good suggestions, I suggest you to follow the same if you are adamant on bending the rules. That is all.
Thanks
On my opinion in this contest I think making a game a whole much interesting is great I like this contest a way it goes and last but something I wana say is that even if 1000 of this type of contest come and last , it wont be interesting for me than seeing a new update to the game from arcane legends developers, im always happy when seeing a game with new contents and updates , but also I love it to come faster and faster, I like arcane legends events I like it but I love to see everything fast , I like to see some developers to come up with new update every day lol thats what I like it and makes me soo happy :D
Sorry but this is exactly why it is unfair, the dragons especially, I put extra hard work in this 1 and followed the post read carfully and posted right pick, some ppl to lazy to put the work in and now they are in same pool as me, really not fair, obviously I have a better chance to win the fewer ppl in the pool, I do feel bad for ppl that played everyday ahd got 1 wrong, but rules are rules, ps the contest rules did NOT change for that day of the 4 dragons, just clarified which I already figured out but readin over and over and studying the ss pic
I don't think there should be extra prizes added or the chance to win the ring if you missed. This is still unfair to those of us that diligently posted everyday. Very annoyed with this decision to change the rules at the last minute. I hope this change is withdrawn.
basically comes down to.... the rules from day one should not have changed period. Deep down inside we all know the truth!
Yes n now this is what I'm going to go do... Sleep.
...
The idea with the 19 days is not really fair for those people, who had worked hard for 20 days to achieve this...
This is my last contest entry .i entered everyday ( i don't know they even made it to master thread). honestly i don't wanted to be pissed again in these contests.
imo if they missed ss by wrong entry they should be included in the contest. its human error. even sts gave away 2 scorch eggs by mistake.
its unfair for people missed a day
and people want to win ring just by posting a single entry? - A big NO
they can still win shards and teeth.
delphina even gave extra one day to enter the contest. if sts wants this in first place y wasting our time by taking and posting ss for the past 19 days. you should've just made a single entry thread and let everyone posting it and reward the winner.
New rule suks
I also think it's unfair to those ppl who missed a day and then didn't continue contest because of that reason. STS needs to stick to original rules. Why change them at last minute?
When we get the items?
