Any word yet on when they will announce the winners?

[Sug]

I figured that the few suggestions they got were so stupid that the devs were just going to keep quiet and hope everyone would forget about it.

I think they tell us right after Clan invasion.....

[p8ragon]

I imagine it will take them a while to sort through all the entries

you realize it'll take 6 weeks just to go through your entries, right?

[Peiper]

I have been watching for an announcement all day. Isn't today the 17th?
Who won? I wanna know! Tell us! Tell us! Tell us!

So they'll give out prizes today but won't be able to announce the winners until some later date. Yeah that sounds about right.

I think they made decision - confidential. So, there is no chance to know winners before release of new items.

I hope not! I'm curious what ideas won!

Yes I am interested who they picked.

Just to give you an update-

Winners will be announced on January 13, 2014, and contacted via a support email to choose their prize.


We have postponed the announcement due to the sheer volume of entries. I will update you as soon as I am able!

Prizes will still be injected on January 17, 2014.

I had so much fun going through that thread when it happened, oh god. They almost can't go wrong.

Now you're making me curious to what I had missed...

[Lord Perversor]

I seriously hope Bishops's Pug for live statue made it...

Instant buy for me

[Bagheera]

Announcing the winners has UI2.0 as a pre-requisite. I think that info is buried somewhere in The Plan.*

Speaking as someone who made some suggestions, agreed.

Hi guys!

Someone has been naughty in this thread.... yes, mommy will give you attention.

Back on-topic:

Sorry guys. We're waiting on a specific person to respond, and our other half is burning the midnight oil to get UI2.0 ready. I honestly scheduled this to end at the worst possible time :/

Anyway, I've got my Louisville Slugger out and I'll make them an offer they can't refuse.

Admit it. It's Russ, isn't it? He's going to randomly pick a post and declare that the winner, but only he has the authority to do so.

I'm flattered you think the contest was that important

Actually we're waiting to hear back on what can be feasibly made. The problem was that many entries, while &^#%$&@^%#$& awesome ideas, would require a large amount of retrofitting to be equip-able in each cockpit, some require a large amount of coding hours, some can't even be created at all... it's 54 pages of "can we make this?" essentially.

Then just stick with "SEPHLOCK RULES!" in holo form.

[Peiper]

At least we know the prizes weren't given out ninja-style. I've been checking back every couple hours to see who won. I think the original description was they would pick their 10 favorite ideas, but there was no promise to actually implement them. The quote is below from the original contest. (Just letting PGI off the hook a little bit so they can tell us who won!) Tell us! Tell us!

The Dev. team will select 10 winners' ideas to possibly make available as customization items in the game!

We all know the Pug Life statue with rolly eyes is eminently codable. So just give me all 10 prizes and be done with it.
