Didn't get a prize?

[Diana]

I had a strange glitch with the usual 'You won the Storytelling Contest' bit today. I noticed I won, and I was like yay , but I noticed something unusual; I had an extra 2k, but the neomail icon had never appeared in the top left. So I checked my inbox anyway, and the notification is there, unread. Okay, I look at that. I got a trophy and the 2k, but no other prize appeared in my inventory.

I suppose it's possible that a random event nabbed it as soon as I got it, but if that was the case, I didn't see it and it went past the Pant Devil Attractors I keep in my inventory. And the fact that I never got the neomail icon... I don't know, it just makes me suspect that something weird happened there. Has anyone else had a similar problem?

I'm rather confused, because it doesn't really make sense that this would happen.

This has been happening a couple of times recently with contest prizes - I'd suggest sending in a note through Storytelling for it to be fixed. Support are a little unhelpful on the subject

[Diana]

All right, I will.

Hmm. I've noticed they've added newer items to the old prize pool. I wonder if a certain item added somehow got put in incorrectly or erased? It might explain this, if it's a recurring event.

...Terribly sorry to intrude, but you're saying that if prizes/trophies are missing for Storytelling, one should send it in via the submission box there? *curious* (I ask because I still haven't gotten any prize/trophy for my last win, way back in week 479. >_> Sent in a couple of tickets, but never heard back. =P)

...Yeah. Sorry to intrude, but I'm just wondering what to do or if I even can be helped at this point. ^^; (Though really I'd be happy just to receive the trophy, no NP/item necessary. xD; )

[Herdy]

I think that's the best way - that way the Storytelling judge knows about it quickly. I know people have sent in notes to the judge about prize errors that way before and gotten reasonably quick results.

Ahhhh, thank-you so much, Herdy! <3 I'll be sure to do that, and keep it in mind for future reference. Thanks again! ^-^

[Diana]

Hrm. Haven't heard back yet - and apparently Riel's missing a prize, too?

[RielCZ]

Thanks for the mild concern Diana!

I did what Herdy suggested, and mine just came through.

So... that's about all I have to say.

[Diana]

Huh. ._. I guess I'm just not cool enough.

Hey, is there a way I could contact the Art Gallery like with that? Because I'm still missing a trophy for my AG win back on page 1699. I sent in tickets, and so did everyone in that gallery, but we never heard back, and we still haven't gotten our trophies.

So far I'm missing three prizes for story telling.

[Roughtiger]

Ah, I'm not the only one! (Thought my account was glitching or something.)

I didn't get a prize for my entry in the Grey Day issue this year.
I checked my Neomail inbox to see if a letter was there and I had just missed it. Nope.
And no item in my inventory ether.

hmmmm..

[Blueysicle]

I don't think any item was given out for this year's Grey Day at all. :B It happens; not every special issue gives out a prize.

[Diana]

And it happened again. :c Shame.

I am happy that that entry won, though.

*knocks* Permission to be on the list for people who didn't get a prize? *chuckles lightly*
