Southperry & Nexon Collaborative Event

[KhainiWest]

Okay nevermind

[xXSyKoXx]

Well Eos is the only one who can disqualify you from my understanding. I'll put my money on someone who used your computer and attempted to participated on a different account or something on those lines.

That would be impossible. I don't live with anyone else and I'm the only one on this computer. Y'all can be 100% assured that nobody else from this IP attempted to even go on Southperry, period. The only thing that happened that was strange was when I first attempted to answer the questions was this:

1. I put in my email address.
2. I answered the 5 questions and hit the button.
3. It refreshed the previous page, as though I had never answered the questions.
4. I realized the cookie handling for this site had the cookie blocked.
5. I went into the privacy settings and allowed cookies from southperry.
6. I put in my email again and answered the questions, getting 5/5 correct.
7. It told me gratz or w/e and to come back the next day.
8. I got on today and got "We're sorry, you have been determined inelligible for this contest based on prior participation or other criteria."


I didn't cheat, only used this one IP address, and there's nobody else here. Now I cannot participate unless I cheat. I could easily just proxy, change my IP, and use other email accounts, milking the event for chairs.

That's not what I'm trying to do. I just want to know why I was restricted from participating, and I assure you, there's NOBODY else here. Just me using one email address from the same IP. I in no way cheated and no one else used this IP to attempt to participate.

I'm sure as a former basil mod the appropriate response isn't; "Oh, well you guy's gimped me so I'm going to cheat because I have no other way". The cookie clearing/refresh may have triggered it, unfortunately my knowledge on what triggers said flag isn't known to me, or anyone else. You'll have to wait until Eos get's backed to you to either resolve the error or explain what you did wrong.

[Eos]

That would be impossible.

Try reading the part highlighted in yellow. http://www.southperry.net/page-handl...privacy_policy

I have no intention of cheating, no worries. I'll gladly wait for a response from Eos. The cookie handling thing is the only thing I can figure that would have triggered it, but I assure you, I did nothing wrong. Using advance cookie handling procedures for sites is something I've always done. I never had a SouthPerry account before now, so there was never any reason to store a cookie from the site. I appreciate the response and look forward to having the situation rectified. Sorry if I seem annoyed, this is just the second time I've had another site's event mess up on me. When disqualified from HS's, I was literally told, "Why complain about the error? Why don't you just cheat? Geez!", to put my statement in more perspective. I have no intentions of cheating the system. I only created the account to avoid such actions. I didn't agree with HS when I was told that was the solution, and I don't agree with that as the solution now. Tyvm for your time.

@Eos above: I made this SP account after it wouldn't let me use my email today already, already saying I was disqualified, and haven't even once yet attempted to even do the event with this account. At all. I have only posted on this forum with this account, and it's made with the same email that told me I was already disqualified on. The yellow high-lighted portion of that doesn't apply to this situation. This SP account was never used to attempt the event, and was made after the email had already been disqualified for no reason. Again, I only made this SP account to speak with you guys about what's happened. I have not attempted to do the event with this account. At all. The message, "We're sorry, you have been determined inelligible for this contest based on prior participation or other criteria. ", was received earlier, before this account even existed.

The instructions remain the same; Log out, clear all cookies, try again under email address.

Tyvm for your help. Idk what happened this morning. I didn't even have a SP account and it gave me that message. o.o

Anyway, your help has been much appreciated. =]

I'd much rather get an issue fixed like this than get told "well, just go cheat. Geez!"

+points for SP. Thanks again. ^_^

[Elven Emily]

Just got my chair. Mi vida está completa.

[FlameChocobo]

Got it today.

[Mandalay]

I enjoyed the quiz more than I expected. I am definitely going to start using SP's database more now thanks to this event.

Thanks, Southperry staff!

[Stereo]

Typo in question: "You are allowed to buy/sell trade accounts in Southpery's WORLD forums?"

I got to 35 today too \o/

[god]

i'm a little rusty.

[Razmos]

Yay, finally finished.

Awaiting my code and very excited.

[Rinax]

Got it last night and redeemed the code just now. Literally the best chair in the universe.

Would have been nice to be able to continue the quiz, though.

Too much server stress to even consider it. Gotta make room for other players.

Are you going to save it for future events because with some alterations (seasons) we could definitely recycle this

[Minnie]

Not quite sure how you get the code or what you need to get a code.. read rules but i still don't know how. :(

Read again.

Considering you only have 13 out of 15 questions asking about the code is rather premature.

[Katie]

Awesome!!! Got the chair today! If I knew how to take a SS on my new laptop, I'd show ya.. Thanks again for the awesome event!! =)

[Christian]

Got my chairs thanks!
