  • SE giving out... Relic Weapon!

    No kidding.

    VanaFest 2010 - Celebrating 8 Years of FINAL FANTASY XI -

    You'll need luck. Lots of luck.
    There are painters who transform the sun into a yellow spot,
    but there are others who with the help of their art and their intelligence
    transform a yellow spot into the sun.

    - Pablo Picasso

    Somebody's going to win who already has Aegis and be pissed they didn't win Rank 2 for D.ring.

      Only one number per SE account... shame, I have 2 POL accounts. Well, this should get interesting.

      Also, I'll have to wait till this weekend to enter, since I left my thingermajigger at home.

        Why do I get the feeling that lots of mules are going to win relic weapons.

            How to Play
            Apply for the bonanza after you've read through all the rules and conditions.
            Application period: Monday, February 15 until Sunday, February 21 at 6:59am (PST).
            The Nomad Mog Bonanza is a special live encore of Vana'diel's beloved number-guessing game in which you pick a five-digit number of your choice, kupo.
            Pick any five numbers you like and apply!
            The winning numbers will be announced at VanaFest 2010, but attendance is not required to win, so sit tight and leave the rest to Lady Luck, kupo!
            The conditions for winning are as follows:
            Rank 1 prize: all five digits matching.
            Rank 2 prize: the last four digits matching.
            Rank 3 prize: the last three digits matching.
            Rank 4 prize: the last two digits matching.
            Rank 5 prize: the last digit matching.
            * The winning number for each prize rank will be drawn separately. In the event that winning numbers overlap for multiple prize ranks, the higher-ranked prize will be given precedence. For example, should the winning numbers for ranks 4 and 5 be “11” and “1” respectively, the holder of the number “11111” will be awarded with a rank 4 prize.


            Application Restrictions

            - Only one Nomad Mog Bonanza application can be made per Square Enix account.
            - A number cannot be changed once it has been submitted.
            * Employees of Square Enix, Square Enix Inc. and Square Enix Ltd. and their relatives are forbidden from participating in the Nomad Mog Bonanza.
            - You will be ineligible if you do not meet the following requirements:
            - You must have a PlayOnline ID linked to a Square Enix account. If you have not linked your PlayOnline ID with your Square Enix account or you do not have a Square Enix account, please read the details here and apply for the bonanza after completing the necessary procedures.
            - You must have a FINAL FANTASY XI Content ID.
            * However, all members who are still in their free trial period will be ineligible.

                    There's always Excalibur/Burtgang to make nice consolations.

                    Your feeling is unsound, unless a lot of mules have their own Square-Enix accounts (which really, there is very little reason for that to be so).

                    Also, I wouldn't exactly call a 1 in 100,000 chance "giving out" Relics. Still is an incredibly cool thing, though. I wonder which numbers I should pick . . .

                    Oh, and the inevitable "list of what my prizes would be, though I know I'll likely get squat, but at least it doesn't require gil":

                    Rank 1: THE SWORD OF POWER; EXCALIBUR! (Bonus points if you get the reference.)
                    Rank 2: Duh Ring.
                    Rank 3: H . . . owait, I r not Paladin. Nashira pants, in that case.
                    Rank 4: ???
                    Rank 5: Profit.



                    Though seriously, no idea what Rank 4 would be - stuff we've seen before like Relic Armor and lolEbisu items? Odds are Rank 5 is some kind of "olol we're giving about 1/10 of our playerbase an event item." It's not like it would be without precedent, either: the only way to get the in-game Stuffed Chocobo item (before the chirping chocobo chick merchandise was introduced) was to win an event at the last VanaFest involving betting on chocobo races - everybody was handed a different-colored ticket upon entry, and that was the color of the chocobo they were betting on (they raced four differently-colored chocobos).

                            Ya got it!

                            It was forged when the world was young, when man, bird, beast, and flower were one, and death! was but a dream.

                            I loved watching that in English class so much.

                              So that's two Mog Lottos in a row, one of which specifically aimed at enticing back endgame players who have quit by offering endgame event gear as prizes?

                              How dead has the game become since I stopped playing (July-August 09)? This is a little worrying and not encouraging me to resub at all really...
