Its rather upsetting that these XP code's are limited to 1 or very few.  I browes the forums constantly and yet every time a code pops up I manage to miss out.

[Poetess]

EDIT: Finished!

Alright folks I'm back!  This time XP codes can be won through answering trivia questions.  Each time someone gets one right, I will edit this post with a new question and send the winner their code via PM.  If someone wins a code after answering a question correctly they will not be able to try again (sorry, just wait for another day to get an extra).  Good luck everyone!

Alright since not everyone has the graphic novel and since that one isn't posted anywhere, it'll be worth 2 codes.  The second question is up.  Not going to post anymore notifications when the next questions pop up so people just need to refresh every so often .

Concerns.

I kind of have a feeling this post is just put here to stir the pot and laugh at people's reactions but I'll just answer it anyway.  You know the codes that have been posted in this thread right (i.e. MACHINIMECH, HAWKENGDC etc.)_  All of those mention a certain game related expo or fansite. It is true that those codes serve as a "promotion" but they also give back to the fans.  Now the difference between what what we've done on DB and what those folks have done is very small.  Before I say how, first and foremost, there's a promo code that has been shared here from DB that requires no strings whatsoever (DRG2013 for those who don't know yet).

Ahem, as I was saying, the difference in this case is that myself and some of our staff actively play this game.  So thanks to the knowledge we have of the community we see there's certain things people enjoy.  I saw people were really hoping for XP codes too so I chatted with Meteor and they were kind enough to oblige.  Now interestingly enough, I shared many of these codes directly on this thread.  If however mentioning other places these codes can be obtained bothers people then I'm happy not to do that anymore.  I will gladly however continue to surprise people posting in this thread because...WHY NOT_

cheers.

[Poetess]

Enjoy your codes everyone.  I'm kind of wary that the last few were taken by people who have never posted on the forum all in a row but the accounts weren't made today.  Regardless if they were the same person or not, I'll pop in another time and provide more ways for others to get codes .  Just a note, you may want to use these codes soon as they expire June 28.  Also, they don't always stack properly so wait until any existing boosters you have on your account finish.
