Sounds about right to me.

Except I don't think the panda should exist at all.

Maybe you should check your facts before posting, as half your statement is total inaccurate.

The third prize, the panda, as stated in

http://wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/Miniature_Panda

is a minuture of Ling Wong who appears in a quest on Shing Jea Island

http://gw.gamewikis.org/wiki/The_Red_Frog

Therefore the third prize does have something to do with the Guild Wars Universe, and seeign as its the only appearnce of a Panda in it it is extremely rare compared to other pets. It is also another reference to Anchorman, as the Kind of a Big Deal title track is too.

At first I thought the OP was joking, I mean who would complain if the grand prize was this rare pet versus that? I made my little joke about my favorite mini. Then I realized that it is serious and I was truly shocked at the level of whine involved. You sir are the champion crybaby. Dude, get a grip.

I think I have to agree with stolen souls:

"Poor Anet...can't help but feel bad for them sometimes. No matter what they do the ingrates find something (anything) to complain about. :/ "

So, the OP knows '200 people that would prefer mini panda over Kanaxi or Vizu'

Perhaps the majority of the other 1,000,000 players would prefer it the other way round.

phail.

Panda is more expensive. And cuter.

Kanaxi is meh. I'd really like a new mouse though.

I for one am tired of these BS posts. Don't like the way the game is going, quit.

As for Gaile, I wouldn't visit either. While everyone is free to express their opinion, the crybaby attitude of the vast majority of people is quite pathetic. I've never seen so many grown people complain about the stupidest things in my life.

QFT .. all i can say on this one.

Ehhh what?

Why are you even complaining or making a thread on this?

I mean... It's all a matter of personal preference... You know 200 people who like panda better, but I bet I could find 200 people who like Kanaxai better. And what does it even matter if you don't actually win the prize anyway...

If you won the first prize, and you only got an access code to a Miniature Pig, while the winners of the 2nd-9th prizes all got miniature Panda, 100K, a new computer and a box of chocolate, you'd have a reason to complain... But that isn't the case :P


Also, from your point of view... Look at it this way: 'More people like panda's'... right? A-Net gives away more panda's than Kanaxai's as a prize, so more people would be happy. GG

Panda is more exspensive?? which universe do you live in?

Panda 1000-1300e
Kanaxi 1750e+xx armbraces

8k ecto, only a few people have that many, and they ain't dumb enough to spend it all on a mini-pet

I know a few people with Kanaxai's, and you would be surprised how many offers of over 8000 ecto they get. And it's not just people saying that. There are a fair few who have the cash, and want to buy the minipet. People just don't sell it.

Yeah, the big problem with the OP's arguement is that the Kanaxi mini is way rarer then the panda (how many Kanaxi are there now... 16?). Thus, the Kanaxi is way more valuable. If you really wanted a panda and got the Kanaxi, you could sell the Kanaxi and buy like 5 pandas.

lol... your argument is flawed. Why the hell should people stop complaining about this game's mediocrity when it's mediocre? Yeah.. It's a no fee game... SO?!

IT IS BECAUSE IT'S A NO FEE GAME, THAT MANY PEOPLE ARE STILL EVEN PLAYING/BUYING IT!!! (note: I said many not all) Telling people to go play WoW is just silly... If I wanted to play WoW, I would, wouldn't I?
But just because I'm choosing GW over WoW(for whatever reason), doesn't mean I should shut up and take it up the *** !!! It is a good thing that there are people like the OP that complain, complain, complain. If not for people like that, no interesting, new things would happen to this game.
While I really dont give a damn about minipets, and I think they are one of the worst things that happened to GW since it's release, I want to repeat myself again, and say THANK YOU to those who constantly complain. You guys are what makes this game better! Thank you for NOT putting up with the mediocrity and the will/desire to come in the forums and say your piece.

Remember when people were whining that only Asian regions got all these mini-pets?

Why are people whining when non-asian regions are given a chance at it??

WTF is wrong with you people??!?!?!?

If Anet didn't give you a chance at it you complain.

Anet gives you a chance at it, you complain.



Dear god....thats the kind of shit that demoralizes the people who are trying to make you happy.

Every single step of the way you fight and whine and complain. Every positive action, every negative action. It all gets the same response, whine whine whine.
