We know that the hot event “Best Browser Games of the Year 2010” came to an end on Feb. 10th, 2011(PST). Due to certain mistakes in the countdown settings, the countdown was not in line with the voting feature's end time. We are really sorry! Thanks a lot for all players and cooperators’ strong support for this event!

Reasons are just as follows:

1. Countdown Setting Error

The voting and betting features of the event “Best Browser Games of the Year 2010” were both based on PST (Pacific Standard Time).

However, due to some mistakes made by our staff, things just went in the way that the time varied from area to area, i.e. the time difference made different areas not in line with PST (e.g. users in the areas other than North America were still able to cast votes when they saw the countdown stop). The event actually expired on 2011-02-09 23:59:59 PST!

2. Statistics:

From the above, we can see that the statistics obviously jumped up between Feb. 9 and Feb. 10. We adhered to the principle of fairness and impartiality, and cheated on no account.

Solution

Depending on our internal discussion and some game companies and users’ suggestions, we now decide to prolong the event. That is, the event will be open again between Feb.14, 2011 00:00:00 and Feb.20, 2011 23:59:59  (PST) on the basis of the former statistics generated before the day Feb. 10. Take action, and give your real final push then!
