again i think this was a generous offer and oh well i don't make your "friend".cut but a suggestion: you would have insulted a lot less NFOhump users publicly, if you had of just pm'd the people you thought worthy , rather than making people publicly embarrass themselves.

I woke up in a good mood, and it's a nice day outside, so I'm not gonna respond to this because just thinking about it makes my blood boil.

Instead, I'm gonna ignore it, let Sabin respond to it if he wants, and later this evening, give the game to a lucky winner.

Now, I'm gonna go see how big of an ass I made myself in last nights BF3 session.


Uhm, actually, I don't think anyone was embarrassed. This community is pretty tightly knit, and there is respect for those, who are active and contributing. Others have to become active, that is all. This is not the first givaway here, and this is how it usually works.

Also, I rather know my chances up front. Was I denied? Good, then I don't have to keep guessing until the deadline. Seems upfront and honest. I like that, and I would like that even if I hadn't made the cut.

You know, this is slightly off topic, but every time I see your posts, Claude, I an insatiable need arises to play DXHR again. God damn it man, that game was good. I'd sacrifice the complete diablo series on hell's fiery altars for a next DX game this year Smile

Some people are taking this way too personally. If you see a random stranger sharing a game with his friends, do you get mad at him for not being friends with you? Smile

The only reason you would even care enough to be upset is because you are gonna miss out on some free goodies.
It's not some official competition - it's a personal gift from Vaifan and no one besides the people he is willing to share it with should feel in anyway entitled to it.
The way it's organised might not be perfect, since we don't actually know if we are deemed worthy enough and have to make certain presumptions, but there aren't too many ways to make it better while keeping things simple.
In any case, it's a really minor inconvenience you have to endure for getting a chance to play a game you all so deeply want FOR FREE. It's a lottery - apply and see if you win. I think it's a bigger opportunity than what you'll get at any other place else right now.

And if some of you actually feel embarassed by this rejection (you shouldn't Smile)... I doubt anyone here cares or even notices the people that didn't get on the list. The only way to embarass yourself, the way I see it, is to call attention to it yourself Razz

59 because that's about the cost of the game here and if I had 59 dollars my wife sure as heck wouldn't let me spend it on a game but I can guarantee she would have something to spend it on and after 40 years of marriage, she gets pretty much gets what she wants.

Haha, it's been my experience after only THREE years of marriage, that the wife always gets what she wants Laughing I'm just extremely lucky to have a gaming wife who doesn't mind buying games and new gadgets Very Happy

I feel kind of sad seeing what's happening here. I mean, the man stated clearly who is allowed to enter in the giveaway (i didn't enter because:a. not a friend, b. not a big fan of Diablo3). So there was no need in attacking vaifan, really.

I'm gonna suggest him, for the next giveaway (if he's gonna make another one, seeing how the things worked this time), to publish the names of the people allowed to enter in the giveaway. That way, any confusion will be avoided.

Reckon the majority of those you didn't accept haven't gone all huffy and indignant so just have a coke and a smile and don't let someone you don't even know get you down

There will always be people getting huffy, the only course of action is to simply ignore it. If people are going to get pissy about not receiving a game that didn't cost them anything, then it's obvious they're not worthy friends and that's the reason why they weren't picked Razz Very Happy

Jesus guys, it's vaifans game. For all he cares, he could make it that only people whose nicks start with J could apply, and you could do fuck all about it. It's his game, his decision. He still does you a favour because the winner will be randomized.

I know, even after all these months I find it hard to change both the avatar or the signature because the game was amazing and it still holds the spot for my favorite all-time game (thus far) with D3 not that far behind, but that's judged merely from the Guest Pass and what I'm seeing at my co-workers. If I don't win this I will buy it anyway next month, I'm tired of the guest pass.

In any respect, i'm gonna lurk the thread to see this nfohump drama finale. It should provide some more entertainement.

What we actually need, is a bit of trolling, so the drama would reach new peaks.

He's already doing this community a big favor, he can judge contestants however he likes.. it's not an embarassment to not be qualified at all !

not really blizz hehe, i meant the general

"if its free/i get something for free, something HAS to be wrong/bad with it" hehe.

You can field test that on the street.

Try to give something, ANYTHING (besides cash) to people on the street WITHOUT explaining for what or why and most will refuse it. Most people will even avoid you and move away from you lol.
