      August 6th Special Announcement & Contest Results — 03aug09

      It even says August third in your post. lol

    • It really depends where you are currently living, when I closed it was already 11AM 4th August, I though people would be more upset if I closed it too late which decrease their chance of winning.

      • 9 Roadspill

        I was upset that I got an e-mail last night and I get onn to the site today to put in my thing which is still August 3rd, just like it states on the site, and I can’t do it cause you’ve closed it early.

        Personally you should have kept it open until it was august 4th for everyone especially with no timeframe, time zone, etc added on the blog.

      • 10 Dane Bramage

        or just name a time zone, so people don’t have anything to bitch about… sheesh.

      • I have emailed Road and apoligize for this, it was already 11 hours into 4th of August where I am and in a lot of other people’s timezone. I have a lot of things to prepare for the launch and the contest is something I really had to begin working on or else it will be to late for me to do any work in my timezone.

        I’m sorry again, next time I will specify a timezone for the contest end.

  5. 12 Cococalm

    my guess is 89 566g 89s 95c

  6. 13 Kilkizan

    Ugh, my guess was 54,332 — off by 2489. Close enough? I can only hope so, but that is still a large margin lol. /gulp

  7. 14 Alex

    Hey, uhm…. How old are you? I don’t really care, just curious and stuff. Oh, and waddya look like, tried to pause the video to see your reflection in your ipod, but uhh yeah just saw a forehead, and something that looked like a teddy bear. :D Yeah I mean you don’t have to tell me but if you did, that’d be much appriciated, thanks. btw. uhm…. Hi.

    • You should never ask a woman her age! I’m very camera shy, which is why I made the videos with written instructions.

      just speaking for that video took a lot of effort and rehearsal :)

      • 16 Alex

        Well I should’ve known better on the woman and age thing. and yeah… girl/woman tend to worry about their image a lot. Anyways. I love your voice/accent, that accent makes me like crazy in a good way, like blinded with love or something… uhm okay ramble ramble. How’s life for you? (I’m creating convo cuz I’m bored.) Oh also….. Rawr :P

  8. 17 Jon

  9. 18 Mark

    Well First of all thank you so much!!!!
    So we won’t get acces before 6th August?

    • I will contact the winners with their new accounts as soon as possible, there’s a little bug with our membership system that our tech guy is trying to fix.

  10. 20 Jon

    Damn wish i had gotten the e mail in time to try my luck i hope there are still some free tutorials i am bad at AH and hate farming and dailys and need all the help i can get

  11. 21 daniel

  12. 22 jonathan

  14. 24 malootakant

    Yay!!!! Thanks for offering this contest. I can’t believe I actually won.

  15. 25 druzel

    Thanks for the great contest. Really enjoyed it. Roadspill needs to get over himself. You did it right, next time you could specify a timezone but it’s REALLY not necessary.

    I recently started a new character using Joana’s guide and am flying up the levels. Now I can use your vids to make the money to go with it. Excellent! Thanks and good luck to you!

    Cheers.

  16. 26 Jim

    Woot woot!! LOL I’m glad I went with my first choice and not my second, which was 90,000. I can’t wait. Thank you and best of luck with Auction House Mastery.

  17. 27 Micha

    Congratz all winners :D

  18. 28 james

    Congrats to all the winners :] I appreciate Mayley for having the contest in the first place even though we have a bunch of whiney babies. Thanks for the gifts and time you gave Mayley.

  19. 29 Marc

    Hey, are you a kiwi? Sounds like a New Zealand accent. Just curious :)

  20. 31 Kyle

    hey Mayley,

    I just have a really quick question.. When you are looking threw the items at your bank or even in your inventory, and when you are looking for “no matches” or yellow / red color, Which addon (specifically) does that? because I installed the auctioneer you pointed out to install and whenever I look at items I “never” see the Yellow / red. I will only see the “no matches”. just a small question, but kind of bugs me I can’t figure this out hehe

    ~Kyle

    • Make sure you have done a complete scan of the AH and
      If its not showing on your on tooltips
      Go to Configure > Core Options > General
      make sure ‘Display ScanData Tooltipp’ is ticked

  21. 34 Silver

    Thank you for all the information you have shared on your web site. I have watched all your available videos in the larger high quality format. Unfortunately they are very dark on my monitor and it is nearly impossible to read what is on the auction house display. I can read the subtitles easily. When you offer your series for sale, will there be a way to lighten the videos so they are easier to read? I am hoping there is something simple I am not doing so that I will be able watch your videos and learn your techniques. Thanks for your time.

    • Have you tried adjusting your monitors brigthness and contrast? I think thats the only way to do it.

  22. 36 Tim

    thanks for the chance to get your video great help and dont let the negative feedback get you down . Every one has to complane about something

  23. 37 Patrick

    Hi, can’t wait to test my luck on the first 200 memberships. Quick question though:

    Is the price of the guide $57 only for the first 200? Does it then go up to $90 something? Just curious as I’m not sure what the actual price is. Since you have over 1500 people on the early member list I highly doubt I’ll be in the first 200 (although I am gonna try!) so I just wanted to know before rushing on when I get an email :P

    Cheers

  24. 39 TTTimo

    Hi Mayley. Interesting stuff you have going on here, looking forward to the launch! Btw, is it possible for you to put up a simple page that says “Under Construction” or “Will be back soon”? Currently (for me anyway) it shows as an error saying the server can’t be found. That might give a better image for your site, IMHO.

  25. 44 KMM

    Hello,

    I´m very anxiously to buy the guide on this special offer.

    I hope to finally get enough gold for my special mounted.

    So please, don’t forget to send me an invite to buy your wonderful guide. But I´m afraid to not stay in front of my computer when the start of this promotion, because I’m working and some times I need to go to others places without computers. :.-(

  26. 45 Ben

    Gah! I wish I would have found this website sooner. I definitely would have given that contest a shot. Just found out about the site today. Oh well. Guess I’ll have to dish out the $57? I believe that’s how much it is. Then I’ll finally be able to get the 50 mount achievement. Stuck at 13 because of the gold problem…

  27. 46 Erik

    Hey, Erik Here i was wondering since i am one of the winners with a guess of 52,182g
    when will i get my account for the guide? just asking cant wait i really suck at making gold and i hate farming and daily’s, so the sooner the better ^^

    Ps. Awesome Guide (Free videos) love the fact that its a media guide Iam not so good at understanding a ebook so this video guide thing is Awsome.

    Erik ^^

  28. 47 Iforeget

    I was very impressed with the amount of trouble you go through for your system. Are all the items shown in your bank and guild items you’ve bought at low values from the AH or are they things you’ve acquired elsewhere?

    More importantly, how long did it take (and how much did it cost) to ramp up your inventory to the point you could list your selection items as you did in the video?

    With a 40% to 60% auction failure rate, you’re going to be eating a lot of AH deposits. At approximately 10% of the vendor value, failed auctions can be expensive. So then the question is, how much did it cost you in basis and auction fees to get your 3000g in auction returns?

    Cheers!

  29. 48 bren

    hey can’t wait for the release but i am interested in how you are going to be setting up payment methods.

    good luck!

  30. 49 Derek

    i currently can not play on world of warcraft because it seems as if someone hacked my account and got it closed. Because the character that got the account closed i have never seen before and the person was using a world that i have never heard of before. I am starting to get really ticked off with world of warcraft, don’t get me wrong it is an awesome game but this is the second problem that i have had with world of warcraft in the past two weeks that i have been playing. I mean seriously a new player shouldn’t have to go through all of this. Especially in there first two weeks of ever playing the game. So idk i hope they figure this out soon because i am beyond ticked off right now.

  31. @Derek, go online with blizzard support they’ll help you retrieve it, make sure you have your CD Keys. Then get a battle.net account, and get a battle.net thing for your phone or you can buy a keychain for around $15 I think (not promising) and you will never have that problem again.

    I thought the guide was officially launching at 12:00PM EST? it’s 12:51PM EST.

  32. 52 I am confused

    So we are on 22 April of 2010, and I think you don´t anymore care about this blog, or you do? leave a reply wxplain me how is this going and if you play with your blood elf in the server lightbringer

  33. Very beautiful post thanks a lot i will like this and going to tweet this.

  34. Really nice post. Thanks for sharing this information with us . We at googlefive provide a very interesting bidding services.

  35. hey… what server do you play on and your name?
