There will only be 1000 of the rare minis given out, I believe.
All in all, I can't understand what your post is about. The title of your thread says "uk and other getting more rare minis america left out", so it sounds like your message is that America should get the rare minis. However, your post talks about the minis becoming less rare, so it seems that you're complaining about the rare minis.
I realize english isn't your native language but could you still try and explain more about what your point is?

OT: Yeah it sucks but at least for the Halloween contest everyone has a chance to win one of those Minis. But yeah, this has been beat to death. A lot.

Word for the Aussies,
And dude this was on guru just recently about all this, The uk eruo side fighting over US getting exclusives like Grawl/Destroyer. And the US fighting over Uk eruo getting the chance to win a rare mini.
All the while Australia is like "WTF? mate!"..... @#$%ing kangaroo.... No mini pet.
And a special shout out to a South african brother who is in the same boat as aussies and Nzers, but with crapper connection and no homelande support. Stay strong bro!
Anet give the neglected some love.

...we're considered euro thusly having to pay out our arses in the online store via AUD to GBP conversion!
Totally shocking.
And games cost a bucketload here, 100 bucks for a new shelf product. Sometimes 55 or so for an expansion pack.

Does anyone really know how these minis are given out? Is it so that you will get a mini if you buy the magazine, but it has huge percentage of being Grawl, or is it so that some people get nothing?
unienaule
They're considered "rare and valuable" minipets because FEW PEOPLE HAVE THEM. If, say, Vizu was passed out like candy via PC Gamer, would it be worth OMGWTFBBQ money and be considered one of the "good ones"? No. If a minipet is going to be rare, that means it will be (gasp) difficult to obtain.

Quit whining, there's the halloween contest for everyone, and there's a kanaxai and pandas to win there too! So far the only exclusive minis are the asura, giant and destroyer, which are exclusive to the US. All of the others can be obtained from almost all countries.
Its a free gift and people still whine because they can't HAVE IT ALL HAVE IT NOW AND FOR FREE WITHOUT ME DOING A THING!
But since the OP manner of speaking, I think it's just another total loss IRL who tries to get in GW what it can't IRL, and fails at that too. Boo hoo, so sad.

But, having another, let's say, 100 more vizus, will decrease so much its prize? I think it will stay in the top of the price-list.

are there 1k minipet codes total
or 10k minipet codes total?

Mr. G

Bleh, you think you have troubles? Spare a thought for us Antarcticans. We don't get any of these promotions at all. :/

Ok People the Mini Destroyer is not rare AKA (PC Gamer Mag Thats Gonna be Thousands if not Millions of Destroyer codes) nore any close to as cool as the Other Minis released to china. And for the Ausys NCsoft Sees you as Mabey 10% of the Retail Game Market Thats why it would be a wasted promotion to release special minis they only do it to Europe and china cause of the HUGE PLAYER BASE.
Very Good Thread Anet should Take the total number for each mini that was special released outside of america and cut it in half than release in america It would only seem fare. (dont try to say america get other special things WE DONT CARE ABOUT THOSE-Same Minis should get released Everywhere-other Promotions can be Country Specfic).

The Asura minipet was given out in the UK a few months ago in PC Gamer and PC Zone magazines which was where I got mine from.

Mini pets are stupid, end of story.
psycore
They dont have to make special releases just for AU they need to make it so we fall under NC Europe's promotional jurisdiction, which at the moment we dont.
IE, for everything else (support, payment etc) we are European but for any promo specific to that area we are not - which is less than ideal.

yeah i know america gets the one new mini but it would have been nice to offer like 10 minis(being random like the bday gift instead for everyone). that all im saying. andi do know that the amount of codes gving out is a large number .anet wants to make mini alittle more common that why there giving away more for contests and not making new ones.
english yeah typing no could never really type.

ITT we post about Australia being a bastard child of Europe and being left out of practically everything by a company that doesn't give a damn.
Longasc
OP, GET YOUR FACTS STRAIGHT
The european magazines offer a LOTTERY.
1. Only a limited number of rare pets (1000 per magazine rumored) - all others get nothing!
2. The Germans have the best offer, if they fail to get a rare "Asian" mini, they get a guaranteed Asura. So 95%-99% get a silly Asura, others the license to print money.
I asked a Canadian to get me the magazine... and if you ask me, a guaranteed destroyer is better than 95% chance to get nothing or an asura.

There should be no exclusive mini's or.. anything really. One should be able to get whatever from the game itself.
zwei2stein
besides, not all of europe gets chance.
No promotion here in czechia for example. They also forgot Poland.

Would be fairer to have non-exclusive minis, a lot of the asian ones seem to have silly reasons to be given out. First 50 to sign up to NF? Deserves mini why?
Gaile Gray
As I've mentioned several times, there are several plans for players to be able to capture a mini. Not all are regional -- the Halloween Contest is a global as I could make it, with local laws and all. Some are regional -- the European distribution, case in point. And that's ok! We're doing another distribution for North America -- watch for details next week. In the meantime, we do our best to serve all regions, but sometimes it doesn't work out. Cases of saying "We never get anything" or blaming the studio for distributor foul-ups are just not fair, so let's no go there again. For the 412th time.

The End Of The World sums up how the rest of the world views Australia perfectly.
I hacked* into some of ANets secret files and discovered why we get left out so much, it's because we're too awsome.
*Made stuff up.

I posted about this last week on one of the other forum pages and pointed out that what was needed was fair treatment of all players worldwide.
My main point was that the release code for these pets should all occurr at the same time.
Pointed out that the US getting one pet and Europe 2 different pets, also pointed out that last time Australia was left out.
So thats 2 threads making the same or similar points
be nice if arenanet made a statement of some kind, maybe they could sort out another way for players to get the code.
