Hey at least this give away is still far better than the so called "give away" by PC Zone & PC Gamer UK.
Gli
Yeah, free disappointment is much better than disappointment you have to pay for.
Daakkon
yea but not nearly enough codes for the playerbase
seriously it should have been like 400k

Bleh, sucks to learn that between a class and a meeting. I'm on my laptop, logged into GW but everything else is slow.
But that mini looks pretty cool. Might wait a few days, try to find a cheap seller x].

Yes, again people are getting advantage in-game because they have a minipet worth more than a Panda or Kanaxai (even more rare then those pets). I just love A.Net for that... Still someone is under the illusion that PvE is fair for all?

So I can just stop uploading now? 15 mins remaining, it's crippling my connection.
Daakkon
yeah no need to anymore

lol yeah I guess you can stop the upload now.
@Abedeus, what're you talking about? There're 40,000 of the armorsaurus (sp). They're no way as rare as the panda or Kanaxai.

Was originally saving for a mini Naga TBH >_>. I'm hoping for a 40-50k price range, I'd be willing to pay that right now.

Honestely, I think it was a really great offer (as someone said, less annoyingthan going to so many newsagents checking for the PCZone packing that would reveal a ticket ... btw opening boxes is disgusting). I understand why they put limits on this stuff, or else we'd all take everything and end up wanting more, more, more, always more
.This is variety. And greedyness does go along well with it!

Massive, massive fail IMO.
They ran out before most people even knew about it.

Jebus, you might as well finish what you started. Who knows, maybe they'll try again with a larger number of keys when their server is working again?...

yeah what a load of crap in my opinion
LAME LAME VERY LAME!

LOL, I don't thinks it's really a "fail" for them. It was a successful promotion. They thought they would have enough to cover all their readers, and in the process gained thousands of new subscribers to their magazine who wanted the minipet. Very successful promotion for a small magazine.
bigo93
Are you a dedicated reader of gamerzine or mmozine? Cos thats who they were for really. And yet most of these have gone to people who want to sell them on rather than collect them.

Daakkon
well it's not going to get me to read it unless I get my minipet
it says on their page a free gw mini pet to every reader
so I read it and I still don't have it
I want my damn minipet for giving them my email to spam

Well, regardless, the fact is you can't read the magazine now cause the server crashed.
I guess some could see that as a sign of success... I see it as a failure to anticipate the massive hits after announcing a free mini to potentially 4 million people!
(I'm sure the direct link on the european Guild Wars site didn't help)

This makes me really angry some stupid selfish so and so's have got about 30 of these mini's because they've registered loads of times.
ReiNaruto
They say that the minis are for the first 40k subscriber, that it is not assured to get one. On the other hand, it is very difficult to be a dedicated reader of MMzine, since this was it's first issue

I really should have woke up earlier today

I don't mean to laugh but thousands of new people now know the name of this magazine. Those that signed up for the minipet will now get a new ezine in their mailbox. Yes they can unsubscribe but even if only 10% of those people continue their subscriptions and browse through it, it was a smashing success for a small ezine. As I was discussing in IRC, stores/magazines/games don't run promotions believing that every single person will sign up or subscribe. But if you can gain just a few hundred new readers or consumers then that promotion did it's job. I know we all want to believe that this promotion was for the Guild Wars players, but it was for the magazine and to gain more exposure for it's name and the name of ArenaNet.
ReiNaruto
I think that they will be limited to one per game account, same as Asura.

Inde has the brightest thought so far, yea, people should look at this "madness" mini pet promotion, and realize what's will happen to this little company,i say this magazine has succed, GJ!
ReiNaruto
By the way... I just get my code for the mini! They seem to be more pets!
Daakkon
well unless I get my minipet im going to unsubscribe from them
