On another note, I’m glad to report this year’s contest was a smashing success and lots of people have started to post pictures of their prizes on their blogs or forums. If you haven’t done so yet, don’t hesitate to share your story with us :-). In the meantime, rest assured that major updates for Messenger Plus! are still being prepared. As anything worthwhile, it requires a lot of time and patience so for now, just enjoy Halloween!

Congratulations to all the winners! This summer’s contest is now over and it’s finally more than 780 lucky users who will receive a prize this year. Free prizes with a free add-on: beautiful life isn’t it? If you’re in the list, expect to get your prize by the end of September (international shipping can take a long time). We’ll be glad to see you post pictures of your prize on the forum for everyone else to see.

Below are the heat maps and winners lists for the last 2 weeks. If you’re wondering what those vertical lines are for the third week, it’s just that more people than usual tried to cheat this week for some reason :-). Don’t worry, none of them will get anything, as I mentioned before, I personally check all the winning entries, there’s just no point spending time on the creation of cheating scripts (apart for the sport, of course). We hope you had a good time playing the contest, stay tuned for more good news this autumn, big things are coming.

The first week of the 2009 Contest is finally over and more than 200 prizes have already been attributed. The people at Evolution Store and myself are now busy preparing the boxes that will be shipped to all the winners. Of course, the second week of the contest officially started tonight, with 290 prize packs hidden all over the game grid. You have no excuse for not finding at least one prize now! ;-).

While you play, make a pause of 50 seconds and watch this video that was made especially for the contest and the Fantasia Festival this year. It’s a little promotional video for your Messenger add-on. Happy clicking!

Finally, this year’s contest is ready and will open Sunday the 12th at 00:01 (GMT-5).

This summer, everybody can play. No need to script, skin or dance around your computer screen (you can still do that if you want though). If you played in the 6th Anniversary Contest 2 years ago, then this one will look very familiar to you. It’s not a game of skills, just pure luck and determination. All you need to play is the latest version of Messenger Plus! Live, download it if you didn’t do so already. Once installed, click on the golden icon  in your contact list and start clicking on the game grid! You can also access the contest by selecting the new “Play and Win!…” Plus! menu.

This year, it’s no less than 1,000 prize packages that will be offered during the contest, for a period of 4 weeks. Each package is randomly assigned a value between 20$ and 1,500$ and the best thing is: you chose what you want to receive! Winners will have a choice of movie, game or animated feature for which they want to receive one or more prizes, all thanks to the Evolution Store. Because this contest is so big, we needed somebody to sponsor it and this year, tons of action figures and high-end collectibles will be sent to the winners directly from the Evolution Store’s warehouse. You can start browsing their online store now and decide what you’ll want to receive when you find a prize in the game grid.

Each contestant is eligible to win up to 10 prize packages. To achieve this, you have two choices: don’t sleep, don’t eat, don’t bath for a month, or, and that’s really up to you, start sending your own unique referral link to your friends and contacts. Your contacts just need to download Messenger Plus! and start playing to win a prize of their own, If they win, the good news is that you win a prize of your choice as well. So, if your Facebook, your MySpace, or your Twitter account gets a lot of visits, or if you spend your days posting on numerous forums on the web, it may be time to leverage this to your advantage. You could very well win a lot of prizes without even clicking once in the game.

Good luck :-)
