Re: Guess the Release date of StarCraft 2 Competion!

[Gasmaskguy]

Hmm... Sounds risky to wait with the guess, but I don't expect it to be released in like a year, so I'll wait.

[Meee]

Is that actual pic of the box?

If they announce that it'll come out Q3 of 2008, does that count as release info or can we still make guesses?

[Overling]

Since there are more people than days in a year, and it will either happen next year or 2009, there is likely to be many equal votes, and perhaps, multiple winners. Are all the correct guessers going to get a copy?

[Meee]

If multiple users guess the same correct release date, a draw/random selection method will take place to determine the winner.

Unfortunately no (after all he's probably going to buy it for his own money)
It'd be nice to get few mins if you guess the date but don't win, though


Thanks for answering my question sc2forums!

[Meee]

reading is your friend guys

Note: this was directed at already removed posts

[Unentschieden]

Does your example mean 5th day in the 9th month or the other way around?

[Lenga]

oops i thought it was DD/MM/YY

[Itsmyship]

Read the directions people.

Anyways, I gotta gauge this one with an educated guess, so I'll give an entry a bit later when I got a fairly decent guess.

[BirdofPrey]

Why is everyone guessing days in Q1 08?  This game isn't even an alpha yet.  Even EA doesn't push games out that fast

[MarineCorp]

This should be interesting, I don't mind buying the game anyway, so might as well :)

Unauthorized use of my phrase, you are fined with whatever you've got, have a nice day.
:D

Cool game btw. I wonder what happens if 2 people guess the correct answer...
I'm going to give my guess after some thought.

[Meee]

1. Funny how I don't remember seeing it anywhere, maybe once. I see how LT's greeting can be authorized, but this?
2. Besides, even if it IS your phrase, your a hypocrite. The rules DO specify what happens in such event and it was even quoted once

I'm not feeling threatened by that :p

Attention:


Please read the guidelines for entering this competition. Do not post your date in this thread. You must redeem the coupon as outlined by the Admin and submit your date using that item.

Thank you and have a nice day.

[eclipse]

hmm ill save my guess as well

[Rex]

I accidentally Posted it in here >.> Sorry. But Deleted before 30 seconds so no one saw it :D Sorry Jonny :)

[Meee]

I don't think it's against the rules to post what you voted for, but it seems like many people think that's the way to cast their vote. Which it's not

[Inside Sin]

oops i thought it was DD/MM/YY


*pulls shirt collar*

Grealll. ( Like the sound on the simpsons movie. When they pull their shirts. )

I think i might of entered like that aswell.

Sc2forums, could we pick again if we entered like that? Cause i entered for the 16th month if i did it wrong.

[Unentschieden]

Thankfully the cupon itself answers the format question, yet it shows the problem of lacking standarts - trivia:
-how many countrys use the metric system/miles?
-how many countrys have no limits on driving speed on highways?

[GrahamTastic]

Hehe... I guessed my birthday. (in 2008)
That is probably too early, but you never know. We can be optimistic.

[Rex]

So when does SC2 announce the winner... Is it in the thread?

[BirdofPrey]

Seeing as you aren't even supposed to post the date you picked I can't even see a need for allowing discussion.

[Joneagle_X]

Sure there is...

asking questions, etc... Apparently discussing the values of the date format system :D

[EonMaster]

Lets disguss the values of the date format system.

I never understood why you need to put the zeros in front of single digit dates, whats the reason why that's so important?

[EonMaster]

Already used mine.

Plus, I don't think the tickets are tradable or sellable.

[Joneagle_X]

@ Lichking , No, you cannot transfer the guesses of another member to yourself. The system will only allow one entry per member anyway, and I would highly suggest you not try submitting it. I think the admin would be very unhappy with that...

[BirdofPrey]

Trying something like that would probably cause the admin to throw away both entries and fine you and the person you bought the ticket from

[LordKerwyn]

Ok, I just got finished deleting the nice, but very off topic disscussion we had going, along with little bit of spam here and there.

Can we please not have it happen again?

As for your question lichking I would agree with what Jon said. Dont try it because even if both me and Jon turn out to be wrong it probably isnt worth the confusion it could end up causing......



P.S. If I do have to clean this thread again, I will be doing it along side using the cool tool that we learned all global mods had during the mineral hunt....

[Rex]

I don't think it's against the rules to post what you voted for, but it seems like many people think that's the way to cast their vote. Which it's not
Well, what if you vote is the closest, or correct, people copy it and your the winner, there would be multiple winners (Thats what I think).

[Meee]

Then, you should've known better than to tell your answer to everyone

[Rex]

I didn't

Edit:So people who have told their answers shouldn't get a prize?

[paragon]

might as well stop guessing everyone, I already submitted the correct date

[BirdofPrey]

ACK Paragon. What brings you here Mr troll?

Anywho to everyone STOP POSTING THE DATE YOU CHOSE
Thank you (for flying church of England cake or death)

[darkone]

your very sure of yourself huh paragon

[DarkTemplol]

Goddamn it, you're so awesome Paragon, I hope you're right, just so you can brag about it.

[Ursawarrior]

im assuming the date is my birthday, if im feeling lucky, then yay me!

[Lipton]

I guessed my Bday

man you guys got this idea posted first :p I had an idea for a similar contest

[StarCraft144000]

What I hope is 2010 so the game can be better than 2008 or 2009 or even better after 2010

[Meee]

are we to assume that the competition is over? (as in we cannot enter anymore)

[Meee]

oh ok, thanks!
I'll give it a try then

[Zealot1994]

I think its comnig out the same date when starcraft 1(not brood war) came out. lol good luck to everyone else.

[BBoy-Kuro]

December 13, 2008

[Gasmaskguy]
