You'll see than an update is in order, even if you downloaded the most recent version of the player from Adobe. This might help.

That worked. Had the magazine for a couple hours but could do nothing with it, not being able to see the registration box. Now that I can see it, it fails to send, but hey.. progress.

But that aside, good luck getting yours.

Thanks.

I guess all i can do is sit here staring at that white box hoping the movie will download.

Hoping.. hoping..

Mordakai · Oct 17, 2007, 08:46 PM // 20:46

Well, this is strange. Just for fun I entered in the WoW contest... had no problem. So why can't I enter in the GW contest?!?

(LOL, it'd be funny if I won the WoW contest... I have no idea what I'd do with all that stuff!)

This isnt working for me. Everytime i go to download the file off of the website, it doesnt download the whole thing, so when i go to open it, adobe says that the file is damaged and can not be repaired. any suggestions to make this work?

Use the torrent.

If you must use the website, do remember to clear your cache each time it fails or you end up with the same dud file being dropped on your desktop. The website failed for me 6 or 7 times during the time I was downloading the torrent, which takes me back to my first suggestion... use the torrent.

Anyone else think it's weird that it seems like almost all the keys are in use when you enter them and that Anet hasn't even posted anything on the guild wars site about it?

read a few pages back look for my post that gives detailed directions.

Gaile Gray · Oct 17, 2007, 08:52 PM // 20:52

It was the Marketing Team's hope, and they worked with teh site to try to assure this, that no one would get more than one key. That would allow the maximum number of players to acquire a Miniature Ceratadon. (That's "acquire one" without having to buy one from another player who took a dozen of the "one per customer" distribution.

)

If you see someone selling these keys, please let us know. Drop an email to [email protected], give us the character name involved, and we'll look into it.

I am passing along all your concerns -- multiple keys to one person, broken links, failing download (I am also having this experience), and more -- to the the people involved with this promotion on many levels. We always strive to improve the process and this is the first on-line distribution, so there is definitely room for improvement.

And this is intended to be primarily a European distribution. There is no regaional limitation, but it's an NCE project and we know that they hope that the majority will go to European players. Therefore, we have a supply of keys and will be making the Miniature Ceratadon available in North America in the future.

Mordakai · Oct 17, 2007, 08:53 PM // 20:53

Oh, well that's good news then. Thanks Gaile.
