I've never seen this OP before, nice to meet you! Also, damn the stupid US only rule. There's never a competition for us Kiwis! | |
Oh, so that's what the "Xbox is in another room" thing that was on this site hours ago is: the "game over" of this. | |
Cool! Only I'm Australian, so can't join. But still cool! | |
Can those of us in another country still play? Even if we can't win this would be fun. | |
Interesting contest. Do we have to wait till tomorrow to be able to enter the mansion then? As well, is the prize a 4 gig or 250 gig Xbox? | |
So, it says on day one 'welcome to the mansion' and I'm registered, and I just see a mansion. nothing to click on, nothing to do. Do I seriously need to wait until tomorrow to actually do...anything? | |
Well I've signed up as well, guess we do have to wait till tomorrow evening to try and escape from the mansion. Hopefully the Escapist won't be glitching out by then and we can have some fun! :D Good luck to everyone who entered the contest! | |
Well i dont claim to know, but I would assume there is a trick to progression. Such things seem odd, like open windows, Odd light patterns. I thats all ive seen thus far, but sort of asusming I am missing something somewhere Edit: Also, URL tweaking so far has yet to yeild any results (Mod from Kidnap =1 to =0 and change kidnap to rescue.) EDIT: Creepy.. Anyone else get two
Ive got two badges now??? | |
Booo. Damn the US only-ness. I will still participate for the badges though!
I'm guessing it's to give time for everyone to sign up. Otherwise people who found this competition first would have an unfair advantage. | |
Hello again- it appears you've outdone it yet again with the help of other Staff Members (and SEGA Members) I don't even care if I win anything, this event is way to good to resist because seriously- I was planning on buying this game so might as well try it out on my favorite website of all time!! Also, crap yah- we can earn Badges!! Nice to also see that the layout and decoration for the whole game alone is well designed. I love it, very suiting and makes it seem so much closer to Halloween then it actually is. So thanks for giving us such a fantastic event and I will give it my all!! (And thanks for making the Leaderboard bigger since many of us from the El Shaddai contest suggested it, shows you guys always had cared). | |
Only US and Canada can enter...my interest has peaked and now I'm off to find something interesting to do. Something that doesn't require me to be in the US or Canada..... | |
I can't wait for the event to start. I have no interest in the game, but this sounds like a lot of fun. ^^ | |
I could use a new xbox, I sold mine months ago to help pay for some stuff I actually needed. LET THE GAMES BEGIN! | |
Move along fellow Europeans, yet again nothing to see here. | |
Even if you can't win it looks to be fun. | |
Us ANZAC's will make our own competitions, with hookers and blackjack. | |
I love The Escapist, you always give us fun stuff to do :D | |
US only... It doesn't cost that much to ship an xbox overseas and I'm sure you wouldnt have any legal problems for shiping it to most western countrys. | |
Shipping isn't the problem. It's every country having different laws when it comes down to doing contests, raffles etc that is the problem. ;) | |
Sigh... another US-only contest... You know I'm actually not really bothered by it being US-only, I'm bothered by the fact that every single contest is US-only. Would it really be so extremely hard to put out some feelers to European, Australian and other distributors of games to see if any of them are interested in contests like this? Having just one contest every now and then that's EU-only or AU-only (due to contest laws as previously mentioned) would be awesome. | |
I guess, but living in Europe I can easily order something from online shops in the US or even from indevidual people trough Ebay, so it must be possible to deal with the legal restrictions. | |
I just signed up and already feel like a bastard...For what it's worth, I'm sorry about my fellow Escapists from around the world. Look at it this way, the story behind this reads, "Your fellow Escapists are disappearing." I know a lot of people will be happier with less Americans around. Now then, *puts on my RP pants* *ahem* --- "Uuugh...where the hell am I?" *looks around* "Hello?! Can anybody hear me?! Hello!!!" | |
Is it open, is it closed? I'm somewhat confused, this thread keeps 404ing | |
Why do they do that? The majority of the Escapist is non-American, so why? Us Brits never get a look in. | |
US only... Again... | |
They can make international contests when they wish. Like with March Mayhem (Which is the only one I can think of). | |
This. It's incredibly bothersome that such an international community only ever gets contests aimed solely at the US. | |
Sorry, I am apparently stupid, what is a Kiwi? | |
It's one of the following: My guess goes to #4, a crazy dude from New Zealand... | |
double post due to forum time-travel. | |
Oh look! Something I can't participate in, because I don't live in the States. Bummer. =( | |
Actually I hear this starts at 12 AM so wait until then. | |
I tip my hat to you, once again Escapist you have sincerely kicked the non-United states members in the nads. Cheers. | |
Do I need to sign up once again? I was looking at the rules on how to play this morning and it say's I need to register once again. I'll do it if I have to but I don't want to get in trouble cause of a honest mix up though. D: | |
