Cabal / xFire Play2Win Event - No Winners?

[copout]

I posted the following in the xFire forums and was hoping the issue could be resolved:

http://www.xfire.com/forums/182622/topic/2313352/

The Cabal Play2Win event started in November 2010, and was scheduled to end 12-04-10. In order to participate, one had to be a member of xFire, join the Cabal Play2Win community, and rack up in-game hours of Cabal. Three categories were identified for prizes, which were based on minimum in-game hours played. Some even recall at one time, a $2300 cash prize was offered. The other prizes were specifically related to in-game items, from potions to vehicles. The Cabal Play2Win community was advised that the 30 winners would be selected and identified on the community's xFire page.

As of yet, no winners have been identified. Several posts were made in the Cabal Play2Win forums inquiring on the results, however, to my knowledge, not a single post has been addressed/responded to by Cabal or xFire admins. The Cabal.com website made a post on 12-07-10 stating the winners of the Play2Win event would be identified there, the following day (12-08-10). No follow-up posts have been made on the Cabal.com website.

On top of all this, the xFire page, which showed and explained each of the winning categories and items, is no longer accessible. There are 2 links provided, which loop to each other, with no other information.

I realize that Cabal.com and xFire.com are freeware programs/games. However, if either one solicits its members to participate in an event, where prizes are offered, pending certain stipulations are met, with an end date of the event identified, and with members abiding by those stipulations, that a more responsible operator of that program/game would follow through on that event in a timely fashion.

Nearly two weeks has passed since the event has ended, and people are losing faith that either company will hold to their word. Please prove us wrong, pick and announce the winners, and hand out the prizes.

Thank you!

yea. EST never answer tickets anymore. They used to. I have 3 tickets that have been waiting 3-4 months now.

But +1 for this topic. I'm betting the realized it was EU only or something like that. Hahaha

It has been a full month since this event officially ended on 12-04-10. We still have no response in the xFire forums regarding this issue, nor an admin response in this forum (Cabal.com). I looked back in the Notice section of the Cabal.com website and found where they claimed they were going to announce the winner to this event the following day (never happened).

http://www.cabal.com/Notice/Detail?boardIdx=2333

I also saw they posted winners for a Thanksgiving event they held prior to this one. In that announcement, it listed the winners by name (last few digits were blocked for privacy), and exactly what items they won.

http://www.cabal.com/Notice/Detail?boardIdx=2332

That's all we are asking for this event, is to announce the winners, and provide them with their advertised prizes. C'mon CABAL get with it!!!!

P.S. Still no response on the Ticket complaint I posted on 12-20-10. I'm glad I'm not one who threatens to hold their breath unless ..., cuz I would have been dead a long time ago.

If anyone was wondering what the prizes are that they haven't issued out, here is what was being advertised before they pulled the information off of the xFire website and hid it from us:

Theyre not even acknowledging the event as if it doesnt exist =( If theyre not going to follow through with it, they should atleast announce it.

Yes, I would be happy with the bike prize. Perhaps the 30 winners would be satisfied with this, or the other prizes listed too.
