WoWp fail: Competition a bit too easy

Posted on January 6, 2014 by Silentstalker

Hello everyone,

usually posting about WG fails is not very entertaining, but this time, I had a pretty good laugh :) So, there is this competition, where you were supposed to fill the crossword with aircraft words. Pretty neat, huh?

Only they posted the crossword file already filled with solution and all. Brilliant. As a result, the competition was cancelled immediately.

Great job, guys! :)

They should have left it as it is.

Just to see how many people would send wrong answers.

Makes one wonder: was someone transferred from EU office to NA recently?

With the amount of WG fails you shown us recently, you’d think they would learn to check stuff before posting it on their site.

So, that one guy who got in just before it closed, did he win?

I am shocked that this was not a WG EU screw up.

Ban everyone who sent correct answer because they cheated!!!

You’re welcome. ;)

I really don’t understand why they did this. Just double checking would have fixed it.

That gave me a good laugh. It gave me chuckles looking at the timestamp of those post, just after over 20 mins. somebody answered it, and after few more minutes, they are calling mayday on the contest.

Nice find SS

Silly people. Got to laugh though. They should save it up for April Fools Day (1st)

Shame. I saw the puzzle and it was ridiculously easy/common sense-y. Even I might have had a chance to win something; but then again, I don’t patrol WoWp forums to see things like this let alone play the game.

Someone didn’t get the memo and posted the wrong word-file. Checking content you’re uploading to the public is too hard.

Interesting to see when WG EU makes a mistake its a WG EU FAIL!
But when WG NA makes one its only WoWp fail.
