still didn't get a ticket, apparently, the site has a vendetta against me.

and, i cannot post too much because keith has told me that if my post count goes past him, he's going to drop me down to zero (haha remember that, keith?)

as of yesterday, the odds of getting a ticket are 1 in 10. (I don't know if anyone posted that)

1 in 10 seems like decent odds. I hope it leads to more legitimate activity on the forums.

[edit]

Not bad.

1 in 10, wow. Are the odds going to go down again or will they stay this high?

Lucky! :p

The forums have seemed so dead lately. I welcome more activity! So I'm actually really happy there's some incentive now to post.

they may go down eventually, I believe Keith just upped them to get more into circulation. they also removed the restriction so you can get them on the chit chat forums now =)

Ha, I was thinking as I posted, wouldn't it be hilarious to get a ticket right now!

It would be nice to see the forums kick back up, usually Morostide it a good boooster :)

Congrats nice to see people finding them, ever since the so called 'increase' back during the Anniversary... never found one. Haven't found one yet since this second change but at least they are being awarded.

I think the increase was only for those posting on the Elwood party thread during the celebration. All places outside of that thread were still normal for giving a ticket.

Ah I see, guess that makes sense, I only posted there twice I generally stay away from those topics... my own fault then lol.

I wish we could get them by just browsing the forums. I don't always have something to say, but I read a lot of threads. Now I feel like I just want to spew nonsense so I can get the 160 tickets I need for all the items. Right now I'm at 0/160. Let's see how long this takes XD

TO SPAM OR NOT TO SPAM?! That is the question.

[edit] Update: 1/160

I found a raffle ticket yesterday, my first, yet was astonished that there is not one item in the shop for 1 or 2 tickets - who knows when I´ll found 4 more? Also, I read they expire - anyone knows after which time?

I am truly surprised, but I have already found another 2 within only 9 postings...

I'm just hoping more stuff gets added to the Forum Shop because I don't care for anything that's in there right now, lol.

Pretty sure the tickets don't expire at any time! (the items may get cycled, I have no idea about that though) Either way, I've never heard of -actual items- expiring, so if you're worried about expired shop points, just don't redeem your tickets yet c: Holding them and redeeming only when you have enough for buying a thing will probably be the best strategy anyway; if you don't get the remaining tickets for a long time / change your mind / buy the item from someone else, you can always sell your tickets ^_^

^I'm with him on this. xD

Thank you so much for letting me know, Blanche! I gifted the one I had to a dear friend so she´ll reach her goal earlier! :-)

I got 1 ticket the other day, my 1st one, and I was a bit sad that I needed at least 5 of them just to buy something. I want the two plushies in there.

I got 3 from posting what? A dozen times today? Oh, chances have definitely increased. It does feel like people are going to spam more. Idk why one or two words are considered okay to post. ;s I'd much rather see chances be increased per length of post. Sure even then people would get wordy to abuse the system, but hey, that would take more work than some of the one or two word posts I'm seeing right now. :"D /shot
