    Giveaway winners announced! The full list of entries is in there as well or you can click here to see them.

    We had 12 disqualifications. Not bad, but I'm disappointed that some people want to try and ruin a good thing.

    Thank you to Blizzard for giving us the bundles to giveaway!

    Good luck everyone! I know the chances of winning are slim (even for the most devoted of you) so I wish you all good luck :D

    Personally I got 17 Tickets... Not the one with the most for sure, but a good amount.

    Hey all,

    Giveaway tickets were supposed to no longer be purchasable 9.5 hours ago but we slipped a bit on that. Anyone that was able to sneak in a final ticket you'll be allowed to keep them but now they can no longer be realistically purchased.

    We've got a large audit that needs to be done before winners are drawn and I'm not ready to do that right now; Today is patch day, there's an overwhelming amount of stuff to do and has been for some time so stuff is getting a bit jumbled. 

    As soon as the audit is complete, we'll have the winners messaged and posted here + on the front page in a news article.

    Re: Achievements and no extra clues. This is my fault, it's just been a rough few weeks. I know it detracts a bit from the fun aspect of the event, but at least no one was given an advantage because we added them in super late.

    Thanks for your patience, thanks for participating, and a good ol' FU to the people who were spamming the same content over and over again - you aren't intelligent since it was just a waste of your time and you aren't welcome here with that kind of attitude.

      Too bad there were no more clues but it's understandable.

      It was a great idea so perhaps another time it will be possible again!

      Thanks again for the giveaway and no hurry on picking the winners.

        Yeah, card reveal season gets tough. Really, I should have gotten Demon to work on clues for us since he loves helping with site events wherever possible since my brain just goes to mush for a week.

        We will definitely put out some site achievements that can work as a bit of a scavenger hunt, and one that will always be available to everyone instead of a limited-time thing. I'm going to see what I can do about that this weekend

        Well blizzard is a bit at fault here... if reveal season was 3 weeks like usual and not crammed all into 1 week, adding more clues would be easier.

        that should still count though, as long as you didn't just copy paste the same 5 sentences.

        Sometimes a card is just "good in Arena, too slow for Constructed"

        Nothing wrong with that in my eyes

          It's hard to come up with something original to say for 135 cards (some of which are always just "pack filler"), but it's clear that most of us have put in a good faith effort to do so. The issue is a few trolls who literally said "good card" over and over again. If they don't want to take the time to think about each card and say something worth saying, that's fine, but they shouldn't have the chance to win free packs for it.

      Damn, Flux calls it like he sees it, and I respect that!

      Thanks for the status update, and I'm sure everyone agrees with me the delay is acceptable. After all, we can't even open packs until this weekend anyway. Good luck to everyone, I hope your tickets are lucky (but not as lucky as mine!)!!!

        Flux loves his Anti-competitive business activity too.

        Forms a company then sells it and makes a competing one. I'm not a lawyer but I heard that's illegal.

        I'm sure your criticism has nothing to do with the fact that you just spammed "good card" instead of making real comments, which the contest rules specifically forbid. If you don't like how Flux runs the site, feel free to leave. No one would miss you.

    Looks like we have some overtime for the giveaway and event (can still purchase tickets). So better get those card discussions and Tuskaroons quickly 😜
