Concerning all future zp events of mine

As people are concerned how my giveaways are done i want your advice, your suggestions. what would you like to see done how would you like them to be done?
some of my ideas pls give me feed back aswell.

2 events. different post count for both.
do the draw on stream so people can see it live and see it is legit?
long time events, or short time events.
would you like to do more guessing games, ingame events, or just the usual raffle. im looking for all the help you guys can give

  • I don't understand why people don't trust you. I mean you're literally giving money away- it just doesnt make sense for you to lie about who won ^_^


    Anyways, I like the thread post idea. I'm always for recognition of the "elderly" forumers
    Stream draw is cool- as I said above, I personally don't care whether it's live or not. Other people might like that more
    I like the idea of "blitz" events, although I'd probably have a better chance of participating if they were 3 days or more.
    In general I like games where I can guess/where there's something to do. Ex: I had an idea for a future event where I would give people 1 week during which they need to get 3 screenshots of them killing me ingame. Anyone who posts 3 screenshots (I would also be able to verify this) would be in the running for ZP.
  • No matter how you do it, there will always be people who think it's rigged. The same applies for hacks.

    At the end of the day, it's your giveaway, your rules and such. It's not their giveaway or rules. Do what you think is right and will deliver the best outcome for everyone.

    Some ideas:
    • Have a larger prize pool for older members of forum.
    • If someone cheats by posting on their alt, they should be DQ from all future events.
    • There should be a monthly event while 2 short events every month. I think this will be a good idea however, that all depends on how much your willing to giveaway!
  • First of all , I really had fun entering all of your giveaways , everytime I come to the events and see that there is a new darkartZ giveaway I really feel happy and I've always trusted you and will keep doing this!

    For the type of the giveaways , im having fun with those (the simple ones) , I'd really like to see some challenge giveaway,like you did before ,(we do a game of 7 or more rounds and the ACE will win 10k zp), so whatever type of giveaways you do , you'll be appreciated, and , I'll always enter them!


    Take this advice: It's your own giveaways, don't care for those who don't trust you ,or those who think you always give the same persons, at the end its your giveaway , so they must thank you because you really do care for the community and do giveaways, all these people who complain still haven't done any giveaways, there will always be haters...
  • I like those guessing games, btw can you post your twitch? or whatever you stream on
  • We talked yesterday in private and today in clan chat, and I'm glad that there aren't problems between us after "yesterday":), I still don't understand how people here take all seriously...i mean, nobody accused him and there aren't haters, lol, was just an exchange of views..next time i ll do that in private so nobody can think bad. :)
    Anyway my suggestions for you are:
    1) As i said to you today..raffle in streaming, this will be more clear.
    2) winners in one giveaway could not participate in the next X giveaways so other guys will have the opportunity to win ( like what GMs doing every Friday).
  • ''WE CAN ALL TRUST YOU." Not once have you ever fooled us. So, I think you should be fine and ignore any critics you may have. Just continue how you have been, if your happy, we are too, because we are really lucky to have give-away distributors, these days! :)
  • Aw man, you didn't have to do this. Criticism is always everywhere. Your giveaways are good in all ways. Just try to ignore some unnecessary (troll) comments and keep going in what you like. They don't have the right to tell you how to do things or to said something bad about you or your posts with no proof. :<

    As for the idea part, adding ingame raffles/mini-events seems like a good idea. And I think you could intercalate between modes, so one day you could do a guessing game in the forum, when it finishes you can host an ingame event, then change to a usual raffle when the previous one finishes, etc. Some of these games would have its own rules (as you like) and even some of them can be done in 2 different posts (like the current ones). ~
  • Dude you are doing a splendid job. You are giving an opportunity to us to get free zp without any incentive.

    I want to thank you.
  • What people didn't understand is that he wanted to change the way of his giveaways.
    Take a look here:

    i have planned to change it for a while. i want to start having more winners. i have talked to my friend and as i said he no longer has anything to do with my giveaways anymore. its only me now. i have not changed this because of what people say. its a move i planned a while ago. from now on there will always be 2 giveaways. 1 for higher post count and 1 for lower. i hope this may make people alot more happy
    Isn't about the criticism. ;)

    I like those ideas, i think it will make the raffles more fair for all :D
    Also i have to say one more, because you said you wanna avoid the double and triple posts from people with many accounts you can easily set also a minimum post count like 100. Of course the limit is up to you, i just gave an idea :)
  • this thread has nothing to do with the criticism. its because i have now taken full control of my giveaways before now my friend always did the draw, list of names i usually wrote the thread and gave the zp. now ill be doing it all. so i just really wanted peoples on opinions on positive changes i can make, ideas, game, mini games. all ideas are welcome. things will happily be tried and see how it goes. i was just looking for a bit of a change
  • You can give it a mix then. In example: One time you can do a simple forum give-away (as you always have) and other times you can stream it in your channel (like a raffle), and every other time if you want to create a mini-game event like we had in the past, then go for it, we support you! That way everyone's happier (although, it might be more time consuming for you, so just do what is best for the free time you get).
  • I was thinking that if I ever did another giveaway, I would make sure the ZP was distributed during a ZP bonus time (the actual giveaway can end the same day or even a couple of days before then). They key point is that even if it's just a 10% ZP bonus, it's still a little something extra. And you know what they say, "a little goes a long way" :3

    I've noticed there's always a ZP bonus event right before, during, and after the maintenance days, so I feel it's entirely possibly to achieve this. Not sure if you're willing to coordinate your giveaways in such a way, but thought I'd give my 2 cents ^~^
