Pleae do not whine how unfair it is to any of you, there will be more promotions and more opportunities to get the pet you want.

The thread was specifically about the dutch/belgian contest, and there seem to be problems with it, as noone got any news of mini's being handed out... We'd really like an update on that.

I have entered the contest as well, not a single word on it... I am so hoping I win one, but seeing as they should have contacted us a long time ago and actually noone heard anything... I am thinking they kept them all to themselves

I've asked around. No one I know knows or knows of anyone who's won one of the Dutch/Belgian pets. I'm assuming that if any were handed out, at the very least the news of one would make it into the community.

I'd appreciate some official feedback about this competition though.

Maybe we will not get anything.
But they mention Magazine number #137/#138
It's true that #137 has the million dollar question for the mini's but what had number #138 to do with it.
Can any fellow dutchman shed some light on this matter couse i can't remember anything about the minipet thing there is a page or 2 about GW:EN how good it is *sarcasm* stuff in Number #138. but not a singel cleu about the mini's

IMO i think PC gameplay had a choise to put it in Number 137 or 138.
Course both numbers have something about GW, but then yet again i hope we hear something soon.
Can't wait

I wanted to let players know that I've forwarded your concerns about the long time being taken for prize distribution (in The Netherlands) to the team at NCsoft Europe, and I will share info as they acquire it.

Thanks. I'm interested to see who has won one of the miniatures.

My father buys the magazine every month and sometimes if I see a cool contest I enter one and then forgot about it, but I never won something.... until today, I received a letter that said I won a golden minipet. Don't know which one I got though, because I didn't open it yet but I can see that the card is a little bigger than a pokemoncard (I play pokemon). I don't play guildwars but maybe now I will, don't know I think it's kinda cool I finally won something.

Well, I'm going to whine. Some of my guildies didn't even BUY the PC gamer and won a pet >.>
I did buy a copy, and didn't won anything. How is that supposed to be fair?

Valuable items with economic value should be distributed in-game.

Like the Moa Chick mini.

Anything gained via magazines and such should have NO economic value.

You get a letter & a wrapping with a plastic card in it, displaying the mini you won with code & instruction on the backside.

I'd rather have nothing than having to buy a magazine just to enter a competition and ending up with nothing except a magazine I don't want and less money.

Which, incidentally, is why I didn't buy the magazine. I entered magazine-less on behalf of a guildie who bought one though. I think he had about 8 guys entering with the info from his magazine. Didn't help, no one got one.
