Re: Will you be one of 18 heros? Answer the call!
My interpretation of this contest was that Nocturnus and his wife wanted to give away five copies to people who had no way of getting the game and were feeling left out through no fault of their own. So rather than do the impossible of trying to decide who's worthiest, they came up with a kind of lottery, and asked that people respect their good intentions and only those who genuinely can't get the game enter. I thought it was as good a solution as any. Complaining about it being a lottery rather than a sing-for-your-dinner to prove your worthiness kind of thing, is missing the point a bit. Hopefully this is the start of people hosting giveaway contests that are fun to take part in whether you're needy or not, worthy or not. That would only enrich the forum, and there's nothing stopping anyone from doing that. But remember this was never meant to be an obstacle course, just a charitable act, and charity is ultimately about helping those in need just because it seems like the right thing to do. If you can feed the hungry without the need to run a marathon dressed as a banana, you do it. The fun events are a means to an end, they're not the goal.
