Giving away 1 Premium Beauty Coupon, Any Server

[zues8844]

Yeah, I have some spare money (and to celebrate 8k posts and 1.5 years of being at OS), and thought I'd hold a contest. Give me a reason WHY you believe I should gift this to you, and how it would affect your gaming experience.

-Any person from any server is elligible for entry
-No begging/pleading/flaming me, the contest, or the participants
-NO BRIBING ME
-Good Luck.

TIP #1---The bigger and more flowery the speech is, and the MORE you stress how much you need it determines if you get it or not. The more you actually NEED it, the more likely you are to GET it.

TIP #2---EVERYONE has a fair chance, there's no favoritism involved. This is a contest for those who don't have SC. If you do, please, don't be greedy, let someone else get it.

The Prize

Thank you so much for everything! I have received my gift, and I'm so grateful. Thanks again for making my Fiesta experience even better than before, and for brightening my day in the middle of this mess.

[mowser]

why wuld u just waste yur sc money ?? give to me...

[zues8844]

No begging.........because I have extra SC, and some people can't buy it, so I'm more or less helping someone out.

[Adrichiang]

I like to state, thank you for your random act of kindness ^^.

[whatever1234567]

Because we are the best freinds ever and if you give it to me i'll let you join paradise and i'll plvl you :D

[zues8844]

I get nice when I'm bored. Btw, that new premium you used looks great on you =D

[mrs.angrnasungaaq]

I don't think I am more deserving than anyone else. But I would love the coupon =). Whoever you chose will be happy and that is the point isn't it. I am new to this game and I love how people are so much kinder here than in other mmorpg communities. Thank you for being so sweet. :0

[DF001]

I might try this. I won't be offended if you don't choose me ^^

[zues8844]

Because we are the best freinds ever and if you give it to me i'll let you join paradise and i'll plvl you :D

Don't bribe me, I'm corruptible T_T

See people, THIS is a good start.

[DF001]

Zues, add Sugercoating to the rules, just in case.

[mrs.angrnasungaaq]

Everyone has all these cool hair-dos. I even saw...an AFRO! lol. Which hair do have you chosen? If I did mange to get a coupon I imagine it would be quite difficult to chose one style. :)

[saueracker]

How kind if you zues! ^^ best of luck guys and grats to whoever gets it. I love random acts of kindness

[Shaden]

I'm too sexy for my old hair, to sexy for my old face, just too sexy it hurts~
If you choose ME, I'll be less sexy and people won't cry when I walk by and blind them!

I want YOU, to choose ME, for de-sexy-fication! Go, go, go!

-totally not a serious post-

[gothicpartyboy]

Maybe the coupon could come into my possesion as i may make a new cleric soon and do not have the money for a coupon it would be much appreciated : D

[mrs.angrnasungaaq]

lol. You are funny Shaden.

[zerozone01]

i think i deserve the coupon can i can fix this Bug here....

This is an actualy glitch GM Silkypico is looking into right now, if you used another premium coupon it will just be wasted. Try contacting CSRs as soon as possible so they may resolve your issue quickly ^^.

[mrs.angrnasungaaq]

WOW. I wonder why that happened.

[Hakai_Miko]

[off topic]awwwww~
definetly I didn't know chuu have such caritative side zues~
i like it tho x3

Uhmmm... may I ask for the dragon suit instead *winks*

and why.. I'd say cause' I spent all my sc giftin' things for xmas u///u
and I want the dragon suit naOOo~
since i won't be chargin sc anytime soon ._.
meeh~ this ish my try :3
give the premium coupon to the one you think needs it more tho =)
*puppy eyes*
LOL
goodluck everybody~
(:

[TripleXL]

I'd love a new beauty shop coupon, i probably don't have a super needy reason like those who are new to the game. However <shamless plug> I am expecting a brand new baby in the next couple of weeks</slameless plug>. My credit cards are maxed with diapers and the little bit of time i get to play i'd love to let my new baby get to pick the style/colour. (even if they just poop at the one he/she likes)

[saueracker]

lol i have an 8 month old girl. do you know what sexe the baby is? trust me i understand the financial strain of a newborn. but they give back everything a million times over.

[RikoRain]

Lol well, I havent exactly looked at all the new hair styles added, but having a premium coupon would be nice. Although Id like one, and dont have anymore sc to get one, I dont entirely need one. Idk.. in my opinion it would be best given to someone in game who you can clearly see has no sc whatsoever. I think being gifted one of the newest items would really make their day. I mean, imagine, seeing all these sc people around, trying to keep up with them, and some nice guy gifts you a coupon so you can at least look teh smex?
Lol I know Id be happy.
But I dont need it.
lol

[zerozone01]

This is an actualy glitch GM Silkypico is looking into right now, if you used another premium coupon it will just be wasted. Try contacting CSRs as soon as possible so they may resolve your issue quickly ^^.

Actually i would just change my style/color

[xisp4rkyix]

I dont deserve this more than anyone else. But having a smexy new look wold really makke my day, as my mum refuses to get me SC :D

Your A Very kind Person For Doing This :)

[pyro_shade]

I believe I would be diserving of one because I'm not normally allowed to get extra stuff or spend my money on games like this for sparkcash. My family isnt into me buying extra stuff on online games. It would just really make me excited to have a new awsome hair cut that they just came out with when I don't get much else extra things in these games. If I won I would probably do some sweet black hair on a character. I was dissapointed at first a long time ago when I saw GM with it and knew I couldn't get it so I think it would be awsome to have it now. It would make me really happy to have a unique style that most other players wouldn't have. Hope you pick me :)

(On a side note I loved mrs.angrnasungaaq's first comment. This community is really great in this game and has a really nice attitude. It is one reason why I love this game so much.) (Also thanks for doing this! :))

Dear Diary,February 2008

I just joined fiesta,and I saw lot of persons with new hairs after a long break.Someone told me there were coupons rewards as Event Quest.I was sad that I missed it."I wish I could once get a coupon" I said.

Dear Diary,December 2008

I see the premium fatures in beuty shop.I got so sad when i saw i wouldn't have a chance of putting on me a new style.I went to Forest of Mist and cried with the Phinoflies.

Dear Diary,January 2009

I see zues giving a free beauty shop coupon.I then decide to participate hoping i could win to be happier after a transformation.I send my first speech but I am thinking it isn't great,and so here i am writing this Diary."Even if I don't win,I hope the one who doeswill be as happy if I got it" I said.

The End

[Madcharo]

May I please have the Premium Beauty Coupon? :D

(Since I asked nicely and all? ;D)

[HeroicAce]

Well why not, I myself dont need one as i already have my new look. However i have a guildie that has been with me for along time who cant use sc. I wanted to get him one but i dont have enough after getting mine. I would say if there is someone more needy give it to them, but if not id like to get it for him. He is a good friend and id like to make his day if possible. Its a good thought and thank you for helping some lucky person i know whoever it is will be very grateful to you for this chance.

[Naomi89]

That's very kind of you Zeus :) Good Luck everyone.
I loved the new hairstyles of the premium coupon it's good that we have a new selection to chose from now. I didn't think we'd be given such a large choice. But I've gotten so used to how my main looks I feel like she wouldn't be HolyLightning anymore. Lol yeah I know it's silly, but that's how I'm used to her. I don't know if I should change her or not :S
Going to log into the game now, I hope to come across some people in afros lol

[darthnish]

-looks at competiton and shivers- er cause i cant ever buy sc in this little island in the pacific ocean :/

[Plushii]

That's such a nice thing to do :D
*invisable +rep for you*

[pacman33]

plz gift to me...i can't get sc and im scless and ugly and would really appreciate a generous donation from u :D

[whatever1234567]

Don't bribe me, I'm corruptible T_T



.

Yes Yes corruption let it take hold you will be more powerful then ever >:O

Btw how about this i am nice and help my academy members lvl up and have been using the same automatic faces since i started over a year ago. (my cleric got a coupon last February but that's it my archer mage and fighter have the same faces i got on the char creator)

[zues8844]

Guys, remember to keep the compliments to a minimum, more entries for the contest are preferable and are a better use of broadwidth.........

Would someone be willing to help me judge the responses?

I may have troubles deciding which is the most deserving.

[pacman33]

Well, the person who SHOULD win is the person who doesn't have ANY SC items whatsoever and never even spent 1 single dollar on SC.

btw...im one of those people :D and id really appreciate for my SC item to be a permium coupon plz? (<---not begging :p)

You are not the only one who never was able to use sparkcash lol

[zues8844]

Updated 1st post.

[pacman33]

You are not the only one who never was able to use sparkcash lol

i know, i think that zues should gather all the appropriate candidates and simply pick out of a hat which person should get the coupon...

[zues8844]

It's not out of luck, it's out of who would benefit the most......Luck is never fair.

[Lukasz_Lucky]

edited my post at third page ^^

[kaori-talos]

This is really very kind of you to hold a contest like this.

I have purchased sparkcash in the past, I will admit. However, in the recent months, my family has hit a rough patch (as have many others). My Dad has been on strike for over 90 days, and my Mom doesn't make a lot of money at her job. We may... end up losing our house soon, and I start college in a few months. Both of my parents refuse to let me work, thus I have no source of income to really spend on entertainment (like Fiesta) anymore. They insist that my education is what matters most, and that I should enjoy my last year of high school.

There are undoubtedly many others who deserve the premium coupon, and I honestly can live without it, but it would be a bright spot being able to log in and smile at an awesome new style. Please, pick who you see fit. :3

I know this is an unnecessary sob story, so best of luck to everyone!

[pyro_shade]

Hehehe...no offense but its funny cause in The Dark Knight batman movie I just watched that one dude said chance is the only thing that is fair. Not saying I say the same thing but its just kinda funny...Sorry for going off topic.:rolleyes:

Edit: Yea...I think we all just got way outdone by the post above. Hope it goes well for you.

[zues8844]

Kaori..........that has really touched me.

[Adrichiang]

Guys, remember to keep the compliments to a minimum, more entries for the contest are preferable and are a better use of broadwidth.........

I may have troubles deciding which is the most deserving.

I recommend you just private message and get consent from at least 3 prominent members of the Fiesta community, just make sure all the judges are not really friends in game or in forums to prevent in group favoritism.

[zues8844]

You, Fatal, and DF001?

[kaori-talos]

Kaori..........that has really touched me.

Thanks for reading. A lot of people probably wouldn't even care, so I appreciate the empathy. :3

Edit: Heh, thanks pyro_shade.

[Lukasz_Lucky]

Kaori,i also really loved your story,its the most beautiful one i ever heard and i hope you will finish your school and get a good job to help yourself and your family

[Blackremnant]

I want to enter my archer into the before and after contest. sadly, I do not have enough spark cash to get another one (I'm using the remainder to get a gift for 2 of my friends) , and I won't for a few more months.

[kaori-talos]

Kaori,i also really loved your story,its the most beautiful one i ever heard and i hope you will finish your school and get a good job to help yourself and your family

Thanks so much! I will do my best, for sure.

[palmfruits]

Hello.

Well, I have never used SC. It's not that I don't want to use SC because I'd love to. The only reason why I don't use SC is because I'm currently in a situation where I need to save my money. I recently had to transfer from a private university to a community college just because it's waaay cheaper. On top of that, I'll have to be paying for my car payments and other necessities I may need. I'm currently stuck in this "financial rut." With today's economy, it's hard to find a job. It's affecting many people, and I can't even find a simple job at McDonald's (yeah, that bad). Despite this, I'm still going around to hopefully get a job soon. I have some money left, but it's mainly going towards my car, and I can't really use it on a game like Fiesta.

I guess Fiesta has been kind of like an outlet to get away from the stresses that are put on to me. I have met lots of people in game and learned a lot as well. A lot of people I've met, whether we had casual encounters or exchanged in-depth conversations, have used SC. It's nice to see people change their character's look when they do use SC. There's no more generic hair/ face, and this transformation really sets the person apart from everyone else. Whenever I see this person's new look, I always think that they are lucky. And I always be happy for them.

This New Year, I've set a goal to get things done. I feel that so far I've been rather successful. I'm setting up all of these arrangements (my flight back home, getting school stuff set up, etc) by myself without someone there to nag me. It's kind of embarrassing, but I always needed that naggy push in order to get something done (like call the school or something simple that takes like 5 minutes x__X)

If I am given the Premium coupon, I guess I can show that I've made some internal transformation (me getting things done, being more mentally prepared) as well as a physical transformation (in-game character). Well, whether I win or not does not really matter because I'm actually proud that I've gone so far and accomplished a lot.

[darthnish]

never mind zues a friend gifted me a coupon ^^

[Now_In_Lush_Color]

Can we vote? Cause mine goes for palmfruits if that counts for anything, definitely heartfelt and I'm sure a lot of us can understand where he's coming from.

[zues8844]

Voting eliminates the fairness, because spamming new accounts and voting for a person is not unheard of. No worries, palmfruit is doing very well without any votes.

[Lukasz_Lucky]

*hopes i am doing great XD* no really good luck to everyone

[kaori-talos]

I wish you the best of luck in your situation, palmfruits! Congrats on your success so far, and I hope everything works out for you in the best possible way. :3

[pyro_shade]

Kaori-talos and palmfruit beat the heck out of my puny story lol. I personally think one of them diserves it more then me. I have it way better then them right now *no offense* but my dads job is slightly unbalanced but still going well. Anyway I just feel alot more lucky about how my life is then those two's right now with being a freshmen in highschool so I think one of them should get it. Best of luck to whoever wins and hope everything ends up well for kaori-talos and palmfruit.:)

[zues8844]

Actually.........I think I may be able to give away more than 1 coupon.

[pencilxartist]

I would really appreciate it, if you gave me the coupon. I don't think I am better than anyone else, or maybe not as deserving, but I would really enjoy this gift. A little perk in my character's style would make my gaming experience more fun and enjoyable. I would like to have some style in this awesome rpg game. If you pick me....I would be SO Thankful. (i might even cry >.< I'm such a softy)

Have a wonderful day and everyone else too! :D

[Asmodejjj]

I'm your brother.......give or I punch you -.-

[zues8844]

Read the part about no bribing, "brother".

[Asmodejjj]

Right, I'm threatening you ^^

[Adrichiang]

You, Fatal, and DF001?

I consider all my previous and current Top Models friends so I may not be the best choice ^^. While I may not always agree with a friend, I always makes sure to spend a little time to hear both sides of the story at least. I may recommend PrincessAi but then it would feel like Deja Vu all over with FNTM2 lol.

If you are still having serious problems, just narrow down possible winners to 3 people and PM me there entries and I will give you my opinions on each entry to help you make the final decision ^^.

[zues8844]

Alright, thanks for your support.

To everyone else-

New feature implemented! An anonymous donor has come forth, and now there is a chance for not just one, but TWO people to win PREMIUM BEAUTY SHOP COUPONS!

[Adrichiang]

Lol how about I be the third known sponsor of a premium coupon so top three funny/sob stories all get premium coupons. I do not mind being known since I can and will use the word "No". No, I am not being sarcastic.

Yes, I am influenced by lots of kissing up and postings on my Top Model or Before/After contest entry... now I am being sarcastic lol.

Ha ha my total randomness kindness act for 09.

[zues8844]

Thanks Adri, it means a lot to me AND the lucky 3rd person =D

[deathbringer54]

yay my first and probly last chance to get sc so pick me. um um i think i need 2 put y u should pick me... um cause i need it i hate the normal hair and um um um um cant think my head hurts now... just pick me and um u may get a cookie (not bribeing just being random)

[Plushii]

plz gift to me...i can't get sc and im scless and ugly and would really appreciate a generous donation from u :D

ugly? O=
So that beauty coupon I send you last month was a waste? >.>

[DF001]

You, Fatal, and DF001?

Yeah, sure, I'm good at this judging st00f. :D

I'll be glad to help you decide.

[pacman33]

Yes, if i get the coupon, ill beable to change my kinda ugly 2008 look :p i really hope i get one...

[saueracker]

not to be mean, but in my opinion that shows more of a reason not to give you one. How someone else's kindness is so easily disregarded. Plushi paid RL money for that coupon that gave you what you are calling "UGLY".

I don't see why people forget the kindness of the past for a shot at a new look.

im not disregarding anything. I really appreciated the gift from Plushii and I told him that many many times before. And i meant it. When i used that basic coupon, i made it look as good as i could, all I'm saying is that i kinda would like to try out a new look is all. If i don't get the premium coupon ill be fine i geuss. Because I will still have something.

[pyro_shade]

DF001...I never actually looked at your sig enough to see what that was...Made me laugh a ton :D

[saueracker]

lol i jsut saw that too lmaoXD

I kinda regret I wasted my sc on him now U_U

And yeah that sig XD
I loled when I first saw it, it's just edited right? XD I hope hahah

[pyro_shade]

Begining to wonder why more people arent posting/doing this :/

[Adrichiang]

Begining to wonder why more people arent posting/doing this :/

Err maybe perhaps people discovered I am a known sponsor and that I can detect insincerity from a mile away? lol just kidding or am I ^^?

But seriously, I will most likely be going through a list of potential winners PMed to me from Zues. Although I may recommend he set up a deadline for entries and when the winners will be announced in the original posting. Once a deadline have been set there will be a greater sense of urgency and more applicants will apply ^^. Good luck everyone.

Sincerely,
Ah_Rin

[pyro_shade]

Err maybe perhaps people discovered I am a known sponsor and that I can detect insincerity from a mile away? lol just kidding or am I ^^?

Uhhh...:confused:

Anyway I think your right but I just thought there would be like 30 or sumthing entries already O.O

[Lukasz_Lucky]

Thank for giving away another coupon or maybe even 2 others lol,it will make more persons to be happy.*Looks at the sky and makes a wish* "Dear little star,I wish i win one coupon from the kind zues"

[Fightmeimstrong]

o.o free? That is verry nice of you =) seeing as how some of us are not able to get spark cash because of "parent" reasons >.< yea i cant even get the basic coupon which is not as good as premium but both are wonderfull, if you have not already chosen someone im open. ..... lol.

[pyro_shade]

yea...alot of parents dont like buying stuff and memberships online like mine. Thats why I think for some people the gift cards with sc were a good idea.

[xungia]

Hello,

I would really appreciate being able to get out of bed one day and feel the happyness that someone would want to make my day better, regardless of how I felt that day. It would be a great pleasure to recieve such a gift, I would be very excited, I think it would be a honor to recieve a gift from anyone, regardless of what it was. It would truly make my day better.
Now with that being said, if another reply is better than this one and recieves the award, I will still find great pleasure in the fact that someone else was able to have such a good day aswell. I beleive, regardless of who gets the award I think that everyone should be happy, yes recieving such a great gift would be something that anyone who plays this game would dream of recieving such a gift from someone, however i still think anyone who even participates or even just knows someone who did, should be happy due to the fact that it made somebody happy. That fact is, on its own, enough to make me happy participating in this event. I may be the best or worst choice for your award, you are the judge of that. But I will be happy regardless of weather or not I recieve such an award. I am actually very happy just to be able to vent about the fact that, everyone should be happy regardless of what happens. There are things in life you can be happy about, no matter anything that will make you sad. It's a nice thing to be able to be happy about, anything, even when you are sad. What I'm saying is that, if you want to be sad in life, then it's easy. And if you want to be happy in life, its easy aswell. I really take pleasure in expressing things about life, I generally think this type of way on a general basis. I really truly have no clue how I can think in such ways, it never stops to amaze me. I think if everyone was able to understand the way I think, then things would change, dramaticly. If people where to be happy that even one person was happy, then everyone would be happy. It's a very easy thing to do, taking pleasure in the fact that someone is happy. It's even more great when you make someone happy (especially if you care about them!) I think the people giving out these awards care about people who enjoy playing Fiesta, and therfor, are hosting such an event. People everywhere do make people that they care about happy, which is a very good thing to do. I also think that people should generally try to tend to, well, everyone. I think trying to make generally trying to make anyone happy, is well... Great! I think I may have went a differant direction than what is suggested in your post..(why you think you deserve it, etc.) But the point I'm trying to explain is that, be happy. Even if you never received something you wish you did, take pleasure in the fact that you where excited that you may have received that something!
Life is hard, but take pleasure in it. I guess I'll answer the suggestions for your post too... I would like it because it would make one (or many?) of my days better. I would probably either change my clerics hair, or maybe my mages... Those would be choices I would make if I was awarded with such a gift. I will take pleasure in participating and winning, or even just knowing that someone else had a happy day because they won.
Thanks for reading my post,

Take pleasure in everything,

and have a nice day.

Candy~

[pyro_shade]

O.O How long has outspark been around for you to have joined december 1969?!?!?! Anyway I like your post. I think its nice to see how different people analyze and think of things sometimes.:)

Edit -"People, please remember to only post entries, at max a comment, but please do not spam the thread." Sorry :( :/

[mysty2]

spark chash items can't be traded RIGHT?

But you can send it as a gift.

Personally I am not interested in being the recipient of charity.
I wonder how long this thread will run before he finally gives it away. (if he ever does)

But go right ahead and knock yourselves out and make yourselves look foolish over the promise of something for free.

Lol, 7 total coupons... seems like I have some fans who likes to imitate my actions.

My recommendations for this Contest to make it more transparent:
1. Set a minimum number of contestants before you start judging, whether its 10, 20 or 30 entries. Say first 20 people who applies for this contest, anybody after 20+ is out of luck.

2. Once you reached minimum number of entries, set a due date to hand out the prizes say one week after the contest initially starts you decide who wins and start distributing the prizes.

All i can say its : It would be nice for you if u will gift a beuty coupon for me ^^ i dont have one and it will be really cool if i could get one :) Early thanks ^^

[RikoRain]

spark chash items can't be traded RIGHT?
edit:o thay can be gifted:o:o

I just wanna say your sig is too big. Please resize. :) Ty

Lol, 7 total coupons... seems like I have some fans who likes to imitate my actions.

My recommendations for this Contest to make it more transparent:
1. Set a minimum number of contestants before you start judging, whether its 10, 20 or 30 entries. Say first 20 people who applies for this contest, anybody after 20+ is out of luck.

2. Once you reached minimum number of entries, set a due date to hand out the prizes say one week after the contest initially starts you decide who wins and start distributing the prizes.

The problems I see with this though are that
1) The first 20 people to reply to this will often be the highly-sc users, the ones who actually check forums and flock to things like this to get the extra stuff.
2) Its not fair for the people who works all day and check this at night, to see they are above the "first 20" or whatever number was chosen, and therefore are SOL because they actually have a job and we dont xD

Also, the first 20 may just be people who say "I want it, give it to me".

So I think that he has it open for all people is awesome. I wish it said on our profiles somewhere if we were SC users, so he could orient it to non-sc users. I think it would just really enlighten their day to see theyve been gifted a sc item (though now its kinda common in game to.. er.. pay for gifting).

By the way, has the first winner been chosen yet? Im just wondering.

[zues8844]

DF00 and Adri, can you get on MSN?

[Asmodejjj]

I'm gonna go ahead and be serious, and not mooch off of my brother..........

Why do I think I deserve a beauty coupon?....


I've never really used SC.......I had someone gift me an extender, and that just made me want it even more. BUT, my parents won't let me buy it, and my Target doesn't really sell it.....I've played Fiesta for almost a year now (yes, it says I signed up in November, and I did, but didn't start playing til almost April) and have always envied those with the money to use it in game.

As a cleric, my life isn't easy.......we are the slowest lvl'ers of the game. Despite that, I did not choose any other class, simply because I liked healing myself and others. But I persisted, and here I am (lvl 60, might I add, WOOT). The coupon would be sort of like a reward, seeing as I was too high a lvl to ever get any from having a master.

As a person, I spent ~6 months seriously here on the forums. I was helpful, willing to learn, and pretty darn eager to do anything to aid others.......I quit perhaps a month or two back, to get used to life in high school, and since I've more than halfed my activity here. I still do manage to come for a few hours a week, and do the best I can. I'd view the coupon as a.......benefit for helping those who needed it.

All I can say is, I hope I get one, (not from my brother) because I've been here, made an impact, and done the best I've could......and in ways I have, seeing as the whole Bijou server knows my name and occasionally whispers me that I'm.......a forum legend :).

[redkatanasword]

Hello.
I think I might just deserve the coupon.
It's kinda hard for me to tell you why, cause I don't like to seem like a bragger, but... here goes.
I have used SC before. But, it was c-mas present, and will be the last time i get SC for about a year. =[
I like helping people IG. I'm always going to roumen and giving new players things they may need then, or later on, and donating money to them. I'm a lazy leveler and I like to look cute <3.
It would affect my future experience for lightening up my mood even further than it already is. When someone does something nice for me, I feel compelled to go do something nice for others, so they can understand how I feel.
I'm sure there are others out there, who may need it more than I do. But, I'd appreciate it so, so much if you would gift me a coupon. Thank you very much for holding this event, it's a very much appreciated act of kindness. You have a very kind soul. :)

In response to my responses:

1) Seven prizes for 20 people is extremely generous. I mentioned 20 people only as a recommendation not set in stone. Even in my top model competition there is only 3 prizes for the 21 entrants, although I so spend a lot of time setting up rules and guidelines to prevent complaints on fairness.

Zues is one of the most active members of the Fiesta forums and is quite aware if any particular member is a heavy cash shop user or not. Basically, it should not matter if participants are cash shop users or not, It's his competiton, let the man who ponied up $ decide who gets the prizes.

2) First come, first served does not discriminate any contestant based on age, ethnicity, beliefs, class. If someone have to work all day and missed out on a contest, well I worked, I sponsored a prize from the money I get from working so... people who work a lot really would not have any issues with buying their own sparkcash.

[viorexx]

man, you are vary generous to do this.
i think you are the first to give something away not to ask for it that is not a GM.
i wish the winner luck.

[FrostFruit]

I think I deserve this coupon because I am not of age to actually get a credit card and it is difficult for me to get a gift card. I live in Hawaii and I have checked 7-Eleven, but there is none in stock. Maybe because it is expensive to send cards to where I live.

Going around looking for a gift card would be difficult without transportation. I don't even have a driver's license.:p

I was lucky enough to save my coupon from last year's event. Yes..it was in my inventory for 1 year. I was sadly alarmed that you must use a premium coupon to have the premium changes. So, I went with a boring red hairstyle and waited for nearly a year for my current hairstyle...

Looking at other people's hairstyles makes me want to have something even more that cannot easily be obtained. I see the fancy hairstyles with vibrant colors and compared to mines..well mines is boring.:p

[ilovepink]

Hm, Why pick me?

Cause Unlike others (maybe) Ill be unique picking something out of this world something that makes us different from the rest. Ill be that girl standing in the side lines tsrating a new trend >;3 (maybe)

2 reason I actually be sincere o-o Im jealous of everybody wearing around there hair that white, pink ,black and im Like *-* "If only"

Thank you for reading :)

You don't mind gifting me one do ya ^^ id really appreciate it. If not you know Its not quite the end of the world.

[michaelphi25]

Hi,

I would love to receive a premium beauty coupon because when i play fiesta i often look in awe at other peoples haristyles and how stylish they look. I have never gotten any SC gift in my playing time even though i havent played for that long. Also it is really hard to get any SC because i ive in Australia and my parents seem to have some kind of theory that Outspark will take their creditcard details and go on a massive spending spree. i am also 15 years old and i will have to wait 3 years to be elidgable for a credit card and i probably wont be playing Fiesta by that time, but if i win the coupon i will enjoy it while it lasts.

Sometimes i go to Vietree and look at what my character could look like and i try to click Apply changes hoping the game might glitch and change my look without a card.
I know i might sound really pathetic but i just wish i could change my hair. It would probably change my Fiesta gaming experience tremendously.

If you pick me as a receipent for a coupon i would be very happy!! And also i would like to vote for Kaori as a receiptant for 1 of the coupons since her story was really beautiful..

Hi.. i cant say a lot but i always wanted a coupon cuz really dont like the default options for hair and face... (they to add somthing more)

REALLY NICE comic btw .-.

[saueracker]

wow there needs to be a limit on entries. I would have to say the first 20 or so who entered should be eligible. Otherwise this might get out of hand. Some beautiful responses though.

[saephdeimon]

Hi My Name Is BabyAngie (ign) from teva server. I think I should win that coupon because the real thing is, I tried to chage sc into my acc, and it keep getting error. Plus, I want to have a new look for my character coz it kinda odd now xD. I keep looking at those hairs, but can't get em. Kinda jealous when saw ppl with new hair and new styles. Yah Preety and charming. And hoping this valentine quest will give those coupon for quest reward. maybe yes maybe no. And I really wanna have a new look. I've been in this game since CB, and I'm waitting for this new hair styles for more than a year. And now they relesed and I cant get them. Because of my study, I cant spend much on SC. Big Study, Big Money...

LOL this is awesome comic, really funny and creative.

Good Luck :D

[v.e.l]

Give me a reason WHY you believe I should gift this to you
Because I don't have any SC ;o I'd buy if I can, but I can't =\ don't have credit card, or any target in my country. My parents' won't allow me to buy SC @.@ Well, I understand about that, they work hard to make money and I just easily waste it? I rather use my own money but I'm still to young to work x3

I only want SC for the cute outfits, for my looks in game x_x I don't really need SC to make +9s, I can get that in game.

Thanks to the Valentine event quest I can change my main char's look.
The premium one's awesome, but I don't mind if I get the normal one.
Either one is fine with me.
Give it to other people that need the premium one more than me, I do need it but I just wanna change my look, don't have to be premium one as long as I can change my face and hair XD

If I get the premium one, I'll use it on my main char, If I get the normal one I'll use it on my mage and make 'em twins! ;3
I've been playin Fiesta since Nov 07 *looks at my lvl, I'm a slow lvl'er, I know, I know XD* abit bored to see my old looks ._.

how it would affect your gaming experience.
Well, maybe it won't make me feel left out, imo alot of people change their look at least 2 times, but my main char always have the same look since I change it with coupon from valentine event quest, my alt always have the same look since she was born in roumen XD

Thanks for your time to read this!
I tried my best to make this entry's not like a wall of text =D

[pyro_shade]

Hey, I just wanted to let you know I'm leaving today for the weekend and I will be back about noon on Sunday. I have to go to this All Star Brass Band camp thing so if something happens while I'm gone dont think I've forgot about this. :cool:

(Comic Strip Gets Most Creative Award. lol)

[nothinglives4eva]

Zues if u get this I will gladly donate a premium coupon to this cause this is a great idea just PM me all the details please

OOOMMMMMGGGGG...

THIS IS HILARIOUS!!!

I LOL'ED

Love it!

[Lukasz_Lucky]

I wonder when zues decides who will win,cause soon there will be too much participants so lower chances for someone to win XD

[Adrichiang]

@ Zues, I sent to a private message to help you resolve some of the issues you are experiencing with this contest. You should follow my recommendations and start editing you OP with some guidelines or this contest is going to blow out of proportion, if you are serious about running a transparent contest.

[Blaaaahs]

LOL this is awesome comic, really funny and creative.

Good Luck :D
OOOMMMMMGGGGG...

THIS IS HILARIOUS!!!

Thanks!

And I hope that it's not true when only the first 20 participants can join... timezone issues are always a problem and others might have been out all day/etc to read this thread first D: ~

Plus, OP said it's supposed to give a fair chance to all those who don't have the privilege to use SC, so we should give everyone a fair chance of checking this thread, and not just the first 20, no? xD

[zues8844]

Ok, CONTEST IS CLOSED, everyone who posted up until know will be taken into consideration. Please wait until then.

[cloakwoods]

Well why do i need this? hmm well first off it would make me looked different than every one else and i enjoy standing out in a crowd and having ppl say HEY WHO WAS THAT FREAK!?! it makes me feel good that people pick me to diferentiate from the other people in a crowd. Any-who i would buy it my self but due to the failing economy i am unable to afford spark cash for myself. thank you for your consideration and possible assistence in smuggling me out of the forced labor camp that i currently work in for no money. so please consider me for this award.

by the way i am on bijou server =)
p.s. if u are wearing sneakers i made them...maybe

[Erbian]

awww D: damn it im late and I just wanted to say that i mgetting bald so I wanted to buy a wick besides....

xDD I really need it cus I want erbian to look like me!! in real life with black hair

[Valentyn]

I only have 1.1k SC left, and I have resorted to bugging people to give it to me for my birthday but they all said they dont have any left so Im just a loser with the noob hair I was born with.

And I would change my hair to afro, so in PVP people would be too busy laughing at me to bother hitting me, I hope this was good enough, I love you Zues <3

[zues8844]

But you can send it as a gift.

Personally I am not interested in being the recipient of charity.
I wonder how long this thread will run before he finally gives it away. (if he ever does)

But go right ahead and knock yourselves out and make yourselves look foolish over the promise of something for free.

LOL

Sigh........always a critic. Happily, she/he has been proven wrong and ignorant. Such things happen. I just figure it's nice to know that SOME people actually keep their word and give out what they say they will.

So Please, next time, keep your untrue comments to yourself.

I think that pacman33 should get a coupon, he's been verry persistent and made a topic or 2 about getting some SC.

[redkatanasword]

[DarkSlasher]

Hi, I'm probably not going to get one but I'll still try:

My name is DarkSlasher. I am a level 46 fighter. For a few months, and for some odd reason, I didn't like my fighter anymore and wanted to abandon him. I can't remember why but I think it was some thing to do with my noobishly placed stat/skill points. (10 stats wasted in SPR and DEX, 15 points wasted on Slice and dice that I should've put on Devastate, 5 points on conssecutive Charge that I should've put on Mock.) And my parents don't like paying money for online games...

And so, I created a new account called: Musasabi. One day, my father decided to give us all (my brother, my sister and I) 3500 SparkCash which I used on a Beauty Shop coupon for my archer, Musasabi. He is now level 26, but I regret that I didn't put him on my DarkSlasher account. I am really stupid at times... =/ One reason is that I couldn't give the Valentine's day crown to him, and the other reason, I started to prefer my fighter over my archer. I dunno, my archer seemed too weak. Maybe I didn't choose the right build? And the alchemy is easier when you want to transfer items from one char to another. Otherwise I would need to use 2 computers.. =/

Now since there was this new thingy to gift CS items, I had this idea of keeping my remaining 1650 SC and wait for the Beauty Shop coupons' price go down. Like that, I could gift a Coupon to my Fighter's account and remake Musasabi there too. And you know what? A few days ago, they reduced the prices! =D I look at the price: 1675... o_o So yeah, 25 SC and I would've got it. And now they've put them back to there original price: 2095 SC. And uhh.. My father really doesn't want to buy any SparkCash ever again because I wasted a coupon... D:

I would be really happy if you gave me a Coupon, and I would never forget your generosity.
The remaining SC on Musasabi? I dunno I'll probably buy a racoon or something. =/

[The_Mafioso]

lol....o.o well, i'm going to compliment anyways, even if you say you don't want any....

I would use the c word but since it scares you, so I will have to use "hugs". First take care of your health first. When you are well again, send me private message on who I should gift my premium coupon to alright?

Maybe i should try this. Your kindness is out of the coolness zone. Well i just think i deserve it becuase i have played this game before and my other charcter was hacked.
So i think i kinda want it to. If you could give it to meh becuase i want to look good and walk around like a fashion model. :P I just think i'm a pretty desent. I dun really need it. I just thought might as well try rite?! Well i guess its good enough now. Plus i'm pretty poor. :P Well if you can give it to meh i would be so happy and i would be walking around screaming how awesome you are. And i'm not trying to bribe you or anything so dun take it that way. I mean if i bribe a person that wouldn't be any good.
I feel better now that i am here talking to you. i'm probley the last you would look at since mine is so long and unfitting to look at. Anyway dun forget meh okay! ^^
Your kindness won't be forgotten! POE POE= Peace on Earth
