Did You Win 30 Days Free?
 
Well I just popped on to POTCO on one of my basic accounts, just out of curiosity if I had won, and I now have Unlimited Access. I was so shocked they have it up this early on the 12th. They have it up now, just thought I would give people a heads up.

My last new pirate Booger Beard Billy will be trying to hit level 40 in my free time while I am on Unlimited for 30 days I suppose. Actually some thing + I have to say about Disney lol...

This is really a " major award ..." ... (If you like lamps made out of legs you get that joke)

I got the free month on one of my basic accounts. Almost like they are trying to make up for taking the linked accounts away.

Now, I'm going to transfer 2 of my pirates from the unlimited to the basic that is now unlimited, so that they aren't all on the same account! Disney wouldn't transfer them when one of the accounts was basic.

And I definitely get the leg lamp reference.

swashbuckler II 06-13-2009 12:52 PM

What happened to the "email notice" lol.

The Commodore 06-13-2009 01:08 PM

LOL Swash. This is a nice treat for the removal of linked accounts, but Big D still needs to come out with some serious stuff. Currently, my guild is all that's keeping me active in the game.

Cannonfury 06-13-2009 02:10 PM

lol i won on one of my accounts

Dr. Zeppers 06-13-2009 06:41 PM

Congrats to those that won.
Neither of my basic accounts was graced... im probably blacklisted.. lol

Liz Fireburn 06-13-2009 07:02 PM

I won on my main account. :)
The email says the free unlimited starts today and I use game cards so I am not sure how that is going to work out.

Cannonfury 06-13-2009 07:10 PM

I didnt get a e-mail, I just logged on and was unlimited.

It probably added your free month onto you existing game card months - it says something on the Disney site about adding on to your existing subscription. But who knows. It is Disney, after all.

I'm not sure if I'm right when I say that I think they don't look at your account 'problems' when you enter. Suspended before or not, I think everyone deserves a chance to enter. I don't think even disney can be biased against something like that.

I entered, though. I don't care if I win or not. I bought POTCO for another year a month ago. Another month of unlimited to me isn't really that much.

Crazypirate 06-13-2009 09:09 PM

I won on my unlimited and one of my basic accounts!

Dr. Zeppers 06-13-2009 10:17 PM

Well I was really hoping they would grace one of my basic accounts so I could work on the Wiki. They changed all the early quests, and a basic pirate can only do Pidgeley, and no more.

I have sent them many feedbacks/emails regarding the account linking, figure they have my emails on file as inelgible. lol

swashbuckler II 06-13-2009 10:48 PM

I won 30 days too and got an email.

Even if you don't win I don't think you have to rush into editing wiki. Not much has changed other than fighting different enemies. By different enemies I mean different names. I finished the doll quest on my newest pirate the difference in fighting crabs is stone crabs instead of sand crabs.

It seems like a waste to me. Adding in new enemies for these earlier quests is just useless. They're practically the same except they change the enemy names around.

Also, it looks like a lot of people are winning. 10,000 members to me sounds like more than half.

Cannonfury 06-14-2009 01:37 AM

10,000 winners? lol I doubt 10,000 people even entered.

Crazypirate 06-14-2009 03:00 AM

The key to winning on multiple accounts is to have a different email and street address for each account rules state only one winner per email account or street address! If you won with your basic account and your unlimited has the same email and address registered to it the both cannot win.

Commodore Larence 06-14-2009 03:31 AM

I have seperate accounts on different email addresses. I only submitted one of them for the first drawing this time, I dont want to win 30 days on 2 accounts at once because all of my accounts are now basic. I entered another account for the next set of drawings so I can have a laps of time between them and keep on playing as unlimited after this current accounts time runs out in 30 days. From what I understand they are drawing 3 times over the month of June at different dates, I think its listed in the contest rules.... the 10,000 free accounts will be spread out over 3 different times so I am guessing 3,333 two times, then 3,334 once will win. So you still have a chance at winning.

Also you don't have to enter between each drawing (else it'll count as a duplicate entry and disqualify you). They'll place entries that didn't win from the previous drawings into the next drawing.

Commodore Larence 06-14-2009 03:57 AM

Sorry if I made that un-clear.... Im just waiting between drawings so I have a few days left in between accounts if I win, because I dont really have time for 3 Unlimited Accounts at once lol, I figure if I can win the next one, I will have about a week left on it when this account I just won on runs out, the same with the next set of drawings.

Good Luck Pirates!!!!

Crazypirate 06-14-2009 10:57 AM

It has to be different email and street addresses different email with the same street address will still give you only one chance to win total! Check the address registered with each account.

Shnoodell 06-15-2009 12:40 AM

Looks to me like there just giving it to people that are already paying and are about to unsubscribe lol i just got my email this morning

Cannonfury 06-15-2009 03:44 PM

My main account won, but I usually tabbed from it, to another account, which has my main pirate on it. lol my main pirate isn't on my main account.

ganymede02 06-15-2009 11:02 PM

awww
 
I really want to win, u lucky bum!!!!!

Zilly 06-16-2009 12:49 AM

Just checked the email I do signups with. Our sons' account they used to tab and mine I used to tab to Sven's unlimted account both won a free month. And of course the notices came hours after we gave it and bought a second membership.

Anyone starting to think these are going to those accounts who used the tabbing regularly as a consolation?

/end conspiracy theory

swashbuckler II 06-16-2009 01:16 AM

Well I didnt use the tabbing much on my main which won, Actually never

jason davy 06-19-2009 10:15 PM

Yes, I won!! Only, it's on my linked account, so there's no pirates on it. Translation: It's useless, and I'm not even going to use my 30 free days.

MacIronhawk 06-19-2009 10:30 PM

I have a question.

I won a month of unlimited access but I already have unlimited access. Will that just add to my subscription?

Thanks ahead of time. The email saying that I won didn't really explain much.

Jack I 06-19-2009 10:34 PM

They never really said anything on it but I would guess it will work as if they were giving you extra time due to some bug or issue on their part, where they'll just add it onto your time.

Sven Niscadae 06-19-2009 11:14 PM

I got my email today saying I won the 30 days today too. And I just paid for a year a week or so ago... :rolleyes8:

Dr. Zeppers 06-20-2009 12:18 AM

Well i'll be, one of my extra pirates got graced with 30 days...

Thanks POTCO! lol

Alehahaa 06-20-2009 12:26 AM

One of my accounts won. yippee...:ziwzdd:

wmah 06-20-2009 12:52 AM

Well when they removed the tab feature, the next day I used one of them 14 day cards that they want you to give away and get someone else to join. Anyways today I logged in to check cause I still had unlimited access on that basic account. Looks like I had won a 30 day on june 12.

This still doesn't make up for removal of the tabs.

I do kinda wonder how many actual people are actively playing. I wonder this cause it doesn't take long to get in to the top 100,000 for ships sunk. About 700 ships sunk or so right now.

ninety3rd 06-20-2009 02:10 AM

Lookee dere! I ones one!
 
Email today saying I won.
Now let's see is that gives an extra month since I pay for my unlimited account on the yearly basis!
Hoot!
:piratetongueor4:

Juliana Maria 06-20-2009 02:15 AM

Just got an e-mail, apparently I won 30 free days of unlimited access on top of my yearly subscription as well!

Eliza Creststeel 06-20-2009 02:57 AM

Maria,

I think you're right about so few probably entering. Which may explain why - I WON!

Luv2Travel1 06-20-2009 06:13 AM

Yippee!
I won too!!:12_1_138:

Andrea/LuLu Shorecastle:dancetl6:

Gorams 06-22-2009 01:22 AM

If I bought a game card this month does it add on to that?

DeputyRR 06-22-2009 01:24 AM

One of our accounts won. I could use that extra time. ;)

Deadpool 06-22-2009 01:32 AM

I won this past friday, and all I did was stop playing for a week lol

Cannonfury 06-22-2009 02:26 AM

Nope, didnt win again. Signed up on other account, but got rejected :( I even changed the other accounts e-mail

Stephen O'Malley 06-22-2009 03:29 AM

I think the winners might be specifically aimed at accounts that were link, because after a month, they know where they can get your credit card from ;).

akamystic 06-22-2009 11:17 AM

Yep.......sure did. :dancetl6:

Eric Daggerskull 06-22-2009 09:11 PM

Yup, I won Unlimited Access on my account that already has Unlimited Access. Guess that means I can cancel it for a month.

RichardCannonbane 06-25-2009 07:36 PM

I won
 
I don't have unlimited but won unlimited until 7/11! Yea Me! It looks like the one month time frame is pretty consistant with everyone being 6/12 to 7/11. Guess there will be some unhappy pirates on 7/12. Including me...

Trying to get as much as I can in the meantime. So sleepy but so awesome!

EllaSpizwackle 06-26-2009 07:35 PM
