Community Manager Dark0ne Posted October 18, 2011 Community Manager Posted October 18, 2011 According to the infallible Skyrim launch countdown on Skyrim Nexus we are close to 3 weeks short of the official launch of Skyrim on 11.11.11. That's 3 weeks to mentally prepare yourself for getting very little sleep, and stockpiling as much hand-food and caffeinated drinks as possible. Because we've got 3 weeks left, and because we've got 2.5 million members and only 5,700 likes on Facebook and 600 members on our Steam Group, I'm going to run a very simple competition (please don't heckle me!). If you like our page on Facebook then you'll be entered in to a free draw to win a copy of Skyrim every Wednesday, starting tomorrow, until the last Wednesday before Skyrim's launch (that'd be Wednesday the 9th). By my calculation there's 4 Wednesday's to go until 11.11.11 so for the mathematicians among you that's...you guessed it...4 chances to win a copy of Skyrim through our Facebook page. On top of that if you join our Steam community group then you'll be entered in to a draw to win a (as in one) copy of Skyrim that will be announced on the 9th of November, along with the last Facebook page winner. So all-in-all that's 5 chances to win a free copy of Skyrim. The winners will be announced each Wednesday (at some random point!) on Facebook and on Skyrim Nexus because there's no way of linking your name on Facebook to your account on the Nexus, so keep your eyes peeled each Wednesday, because if you don't claim your prize before the 9th of November, you're not getting it! But wait, there's more stipulations as well! The game is going to be sent by...Steam (*hides*). So if you're a Steam hater (what's wrong with you?), you don't have Steam, you don't want Steam or you just plain disagree then..well..that's that I guess! No alternative is being offered. However, considering Skyrim is going to be using Steam it stands to reason that you'll need Steam to play the game, so you might as well accept the gift of Skyrim on Steam...! If you are a Steam philistine please let me know if you win so your prize can go to someone else! Oh, and you can only win a copy of Skyrim once, so in the unlikely event your name comes up twice, I'll do the draw again. So really, this is a long-winded way of saying please like us on Facebook and join our Steam community. Oh, and have a free bribe on me.
ub3rman123 Posted October 18, 2011 Posted October 18, 2011 Oh god, I can't decide if this is worth signing up for Facebook for.. I'm in the Steam group already. Am I entered in the draw for that?
Community Manager Dark0ne Posted October 18, 2011 Author Community Manager Posted October 18, 2011 Yes of course, if you're already in the group then you'll be in the draw!
AnarkyzmA Posted October 18, 2011 Posted October 18, 2011 Nice incentive, Robin. I didn't even know there was a steam group until now D: Good luck to all.
AzzAmoebA Posted October 18, 2011 Posted October 18, 2011 (edited) If we've already pre-ordered and win can we have it sent to someone else? (family/friend/pet rock/ect...) Edited October 18, 2011 by AzzAmoebA
Sedit Posted October 18, 2011 Posted October 18, 2011 This is like the best contest ever! Can't wait =)
