Honourable mentions

Karin · Post by **Karin** » Sat Apr 18, 2009 3:55 pm

Three weeks ago I started up a screenshot contest with the theme of "Lone Wolf Forever". We received 20 entries and the votes from this thread are now in! There is a clear winner, and a very close race for 2nd and 3rd amongst 4-5 entries.

The prizes were as follows:

1st place - 90,000,000 credits
2nd place - 55,000,000 credits
3rd place / People's choice - 22,500,000 credits

[align=center]Thank you to everyone who entered,
voted, or even read these threads!
You are what make this community what it is![/align]

If and when you take more cool screenshots, post them online for all of us to see! There is a screenshots thread that is a great place to show off your latest in-game photos.

Warsign, Exim and Robert, when and where are you online? I will transfer your winnings to you as soon as I'm able.

Warsign and Daedalao, when and where are you online? I'll need to get the funds you pledged to the contest, if they're still available and you're still happy to do so! We can alternatively work out what funds go to whom, in case you see them online before you see me.

Here are some other screenshots that also got a lot of votes, but not quite enough to make it into the top three. I think all the photos we got in the contest were great, and most of these honourable mentions were within only 1-2 votes of each other.

Plus, it turns out that everyone who entered got votes for at least one of their photos!

Congrats all! I hope you had fun making them, voting and/or simply viewing them.

Thank you guys.

Robert the Robot and Exim, conrats, nice screenshots indeed.

I will give Daedalao's fund also, meet him online easier...

I am online everyday but GMT+2, 15:00 - 18:00 is good to me.

Choose the day Karin or, I can send to you my profile, you can get the money there ( what an idea!), I need an email for this, sent to my U2U.....

We need more competitions, also PVP and clan battles, modding or more imho...

I'm usually online in the middle of the day... online right now actually. Let me know when to give you some $$

Sorry, I've been so long posting here, I'm afraid I haven't had much time for playing EL lately

.

I'm afraid that while I do have Internet access, I don't think the computer's capable of running EL so I'm not likely to be appearing in the multiplayer universe any time soon (which is rather a shame, it sounds like fun).

I'm absolutely thrilled to have come in first place with my screenshot, but unless you know how to transfer funds by directly modifying my single player pilot profile, I'm afraid I just won't be able to claim the prize.

This is so bad. We are waiting for transfer details.
Karin also didn't answer our last posts. We are waiting...

Yes, I'll send out some U2U's as soon as I'm able. I would like to meet people in-game to do the transfer, but it may be more convenient to simply do it through editing their profiles. Given our spread out timezones, multiplayer servers and availability, profile editing might be the most practical. Good idea, and I'll make headway on this in the next 48 hours
