Why does everyone love the unlucky number?
Ah, well looks like I screwed up. My apologies to everyone. =/ I used RAFFLE 24, NO LURKERS (and made it so it's specific to this thread only). What does BLACKLIST do? And do I have to specify?
EDIT: I just read the guide again. I should have used MULTIENTRY w/ RAFFLE 24 w/ NOWINNERSDAILY.
I do ask that, people still only apply for ONE code this time. Just because, I fucked up and didn't make it so you can't win more then one thing daily. And it would be terrible if someone won more than once (wouldn't be fair to everyone else). I know this requires the honor code, and I can't enforce it. But I still ask that people be cool about this. Clearly I need to go over the guide more next time I do this, as it really requires specific rules to get it 100% the way we want it. On the off chance someone does win twice, I can't force you to give away the second code. But I do ask that you consider giving it away to someone else in this thread. But that's all I can do, ask for people to be cool about it. Sorry for the messup guys.
Ok, i hope i can ask doubts about vita here.
Here goes,
I bought a vita today and it has a 4GB card and i have ordered a 16GB card (which will reach me next week). So if i link my main account to this 4GB card, Can i easily deactivate my account link to this 4GB memory card and link it to 16GB when it arrives next week?
I don't have much idea about vita and the vita jargon. If i am wrong, please explain.

I think its by system not card. So just swap cards and redownload or transfer back from pc if you backed up. Shouldnt be an issue at all. Wasnt when i went from 32 to 64 (backup took forever though).
Digital content is linked to your PSN account, neither your Vita or your card counts.

Not an answer, but where's there "you bought a Vita" gif?!
Someone should make a 64GB card version of this
If you don't want us to apply for more than one code, I won't do it. No problems here.
I'm talking to the admin now, just to clarify this. I'll give you guys an update.

Oh! And Azula, thanks! Really cool what you're doing. Like another poster said, I haven't been all that active this month so I won't be entering, but this is a pretty sweet gift. Best of luck to everyone!
So when i swap the card, i dont need to reset the PS vita to factory setting. Just format my 4gb and then insert the 16gb. Thats it?
It has 13 hours left. I made it 24 hour, just because I posted it late last night, and wanted to give people today to enter. I might shorten the raffle next time, as 24 hours seems too long. I'm just talking the admin that created Modbot right now, to clarify some of the rules of how the raffle works (given the rules I set for this contest).
Basically, I'm trying to avoid someone winning more than once. And there is confusion over whether you can enter 5 times (ie. send 1 PM for each code posted). I told people initially to pick a code at random, and only go for one (as my understanding was that, modbot blocks out anyone that tries more than once, even if your second attempt was a different code). Then again, it might be a case where, it doesn't matter which code you sent modbot, it just needed to be one of the 5 and he auto enters you in the raffle (which is done for all 5 at the same time, and picks 5 winners).
That's why I'm trying to get some clarification. Next time the giveaway will go more smoothly.
I am not good with graphic editing so I leave that to someone else.
13 hours left. You are still good to go.
Btw: I just noticed that some of you guys aren't in my PSN friendslist yet so I am sending out some requests. I hope you all don't mind
imho, 24h seems good given people live in different timezones (and you can live anywhere and still use a US account). If you plan on changing it, please keep it in mind.

I think the limit should be 24 hours as we have VitaGAF from all over the world.
BTW thanks. Entered.
Ah okay, thanks for the feedback. Yeah, that was another reason I went with 24 hours because of the various timezones. But to be clear, these codes are US only. The region stuff was way too fragmented. So you will need a US account to use this.
I've considered using "dummy" codes, so that people that win have to PM me. That way they can tell me what region they are in, and I'll buy the code and PM them back (based on their region). The only issue with this is (that we found), it's hard finding legitimate websites that sell digital codes for each region. And the region stuff is soooo fragmented, it becomes a nightmare. I guess I could try opening it up to the specific regions I know we can get codes for (so make it in the rules, that the codes are only for x regions vs. just ONE). I think that could be a nice compromise in the future.

Great stuff this that you are doing. Wish I wasn't in Canada, I would give it a shot too. Good luck to those who entered!
I edited my post. But in future raffles, I think I'll open it up to more regions. I'm going to do some research this month, and make a list of all the websites where I can legitimately buy serial codes for x region. Then in the next raffle, I'll put it in the rules the SPECIFIC regions that I can get codes for.
But if I do this, i'll have to make the serial codes fake, so that people that win have to PM me for the real one (and then I'll just buy based on their region, granted, it has to be one of the regions I can get codes for. One of the ones listed in the rules). It's not that much more work (instead of buying the code from Amazon, I'll just use one of these other sites). The only extra step is having to make 5 fake serial codes, and have 5 winners PM me. But it's not a big deal. I would rather try to open this up to as many people as possible.
Don't be sorry, this is your first time doing this. It's already awesome that you do this in the first place.
As for the feedback you requested in other posts:
I think making it so you can't win two months in a row is more than fair to me.
Keeping it at 24 hours would probably be wise, people live in different time zones. Many people with US accounts live in another country as well.

Yeah I think what you are doing already is awesome, don't worry too much about it
Yes, you can simply remove the 4GB and insert the 16GB. Switching memory cards on the Vita is not a big hassle. You only need to format the card, if you want to use it with another account (which then would require resetting the Vita to factory settings)
If you have things on the 4GB card that you would like to transfer, you can create a backup from within the content manager on the Vita on PC (http://cma.dl.playstation.net/cma/win/en/index.html) or on a PS3 and restore it on the 16GB card.
Well, both offer lots of content (the former quite liteary seeming to be an endless game with the rouge-centeric gameplay designs and the latter having most of the world of Second Son to explore with).
The main thing is what type of game you want.
Do you want a fun 2D Rouge-like with what looks to be really fun gameplay? Then give Rouge Legacy a shot
. The combat looks to be fun, the visuals look really nice and the verity of different effects each of your characters have makes levels look lots of fun to explore. Do you want a fun super hero open world game or just want to see what the gameplay of Second Son will be like? Then pick up First Light
. The game is a lot like Festival of Blood (the PS3 DL game based off of Infamous 2), with a large section of the games map to explore, new things to find, new powers/abilities to play with and in the case of First Light, a bigger story compared to FoB. I don't know if it has the mission creating mode FoB had (which made that game have more or less endless content) but either way, if you like action or super hero games (or just love Infamous and want more of it ), give First Light a shot .Minecraft Vita gameplay from pax

RK128 How come I never see you in the Sonic Community Thread in Gaming Community?
The way you did it will just mean that any 1 GAFfer will win 1 code only, so I'd say you did fine and there's nothing to worry about, since this way any 5 different GAFfers will earn a code each =)
As such, there's nothing wrong in entering all 5, if you win 1 code, the other 4 will each go to a different GAFfer.

Okay guys, a quick update:
also
So to clarify, you can only ENTER one time. Only your first entry will count, you won't be disqualified for entering more than once, but it's wasted effort as it only counts the first time you enter. So you CAN NOT enter up to 5 times.
Each code is its own separate raffle. So the idea that i had in my original post (to just pick one at random and go for it)...I still say is the best option. As you won't know which code has the most people applying for it.

I'm worried about the world size. I've never played the console version so I don't know how big that is, I've only played the PC one.
Cool
, so people who entered in for other codes still have a chance to win with the original one the picked . Thanks for the update .World size is 862 by 862 blocks or about the size of a map
There is a Sonic Community Thread here? Didn't know about that....will check that out
. Thanks for letting me know Tizoc. I am also a member of Sonic Stadium Message Board (was there for two years before Gaf activated my account), so I guess that is why I have my Sonic avatar XD! I don't own a Wii U or 3DS yet, so I missed out on Sonic's recent games lately
(meaning, didn't get the chance to fully enjoy Sonic Lost World outside of the GameStop demo station and have no way to play either version of Sonic Boom....though for the latter game, the 3DS version seems to be the best one).Again, thanks for letting me know about that thread
. If you can give me the link to it, that would be very nice of you .Ingueferroque

I'll deal with it, just going to have to find a nice island seed. PS4 world will not be infinite either, right? Which is odd since I thought they managed to bring infinite worlds to the mobile version..
Vita version looks very nice.
I believe it'll be something like 8 times bigger in each direction. PS3/Vita version is cross-buy and you can upgrade to the PS4 version if you already own the PS3/Vita version for $5.

Joe danger vita releases on Tuesday right? I've had the sequel on ps3 since forever, but haven't booted it up. Is the series Any good?
I got the second game on Plus to and.....never played it X(. But, the games look to have gameplay similar to the Trails games, so it might be like that?
At least we can give the game a shot for 'free' on Tuesday
.Tiny bit less than that because the world generator likes to put an ocean around you on the border.
Big enough for Roosterteeth to do 130+ episodes without running out of building space (aboutc10 minutes walk from edge to edge)
Dat draw distance... Can't tell if nativ-res. Framerate looks good though =)
That has nothing to do with hardware capabilities. IIRC it's a file size limit on consoles that prevent infinite worlds from happening.

Actually, forgot what I said about the world being the size of a map.
Looks like it could be the size of a map but it has to be at zoom step 3

Thanks for going through all this trouble! Really awesome thing you're doing. As for future rules, you could put in a rule that blocks me personally from entering and I would still think it is a great thing and give you props for it, so whatever ideas you end up preferring are more than fine for me.
Also, I tried to download Neptunia Rebirth last night and woke up this morning to see that there was some error and it couldn't download. Sigh, time to start the 3 GB process again on this 1 Mbps connection.

It is a very good idea to have people PM you for real after winning so you can verify them.
