The Power Of Our Community

By | December 29, 2008 | Uncategorized |

We here at 360Sync try our best to bring you everything in a timely manner whether it’s our news, contests/giveaways, responses and interactions, improvements and even problems with the site.  This, also includes picking of our winners for the contests and shipping out their prizes.  Occasionally, we do make mistakes since we are human (or are we?).

Such a mistake happened when I was sending off emails to the winners of the Namco Museum Virtual Arcade Contest.  Instead of sending an email off to the fourth winner Jason, I accidentally copied the email address for ThisIsTheEnd21 and sent the email to him.  Luckily for me, he was honest and replied back to me saying that he didn’t think he was the winner. I checked and realised I had in fact made a mistake, and proceeded to correct it.

I felt bad for getting ThisIsTheEnd21 for getting his hopes up and I also wanted to reward him for being honest, because in today’s day and age, that is rare.  So, I sent him a thank you email with a download code for Fable 2 Pub Games.  This isn’t a precedent for catching a mistake, but it’s just to show that honesty is worth it.  Thanks to everyone here for being such a great community!

    Good to see we have honest people here.

    Speaking of Namco Arcade, do I get a replacement prize since it can't be shipped to New Zealand?

      Hmm…that you'll have to discuss with Devin when he's back in town after the 4th.

    I guess we know he won't cheat at the Pub Games :)

    Seriously though, that says a lot about his character, and it's good that we have those kind of people around here.

      AHHAHAHAHHAHA…that's awesome… Doing this is a true show of character; I don't know many people that would actually do this.

    Thanks for your honesty ThisIsTheEnd21! And I'm not just saying this because I was the winner of this, I really do think it was great of you to not just run off with the prize. We need more people like you in the gaming community!
