Did that grab your attention? Nexon is sure hoping it did, as the company is in the throes of its "Get a Hat Trick!" promotion. For the next month and a half, players who dive into Vindictus, Dragon Nest, and Dungeon Fighter Online and get to level 20 in all three games will have a shot at several nice prizes -- including the above 2012 BMW M3. So, in effect, just by playing MMOs, you could be netting yourself one of the sweetest rides in town.
While Nexon has already handed out awards for the third and fourth place winners, there are still prizes left for aspiring gamers. First of all, everyone who gets a hat trick (as defined by achieving level 20 in the above three titles) will be treated to $20 worth of in-game items. Additionally, three players will get an Alienware Aurora desktop computer, and 30 people will win $50 "Karma Koins."
As for the Beemer, the prize will only be unlocked if 30,000 players achieve hat tricks by March 15th -- and even then, only one car will be given away after that. So good luck and may the game be with you!

Nice car, but I don't want to deal with the taxes and insurance premiums involving that car.

Global Maple Story has been down off an on for 3 weeks, sometimes 12 hours at a time. Rollbacks, stability issues....etc. Game freezes, timed contests being impossible to complete. For such a successful company how can their customer service be horrible. After another 8+ hour downtime yesterday it seems to be doing well. The even put off their update that was supposed to be Yesterday until the issues with the hardware etc. is over....but we will see.
I wish someone would do an article on all the craziness of the last 3 weeks.

@(Unverified) And I wish Nexon would put that money on fixing their Maple servers.:P My guild has been at LHC the past few days, and they turn on 3x and still have low-pop servers crashing from hardware errors.:P

Damn those companies use same tactic as those lotteries in TV with questions like "What's the name of Denzel Washington" :
a) Eva Longoria
b) Denzel Washington
c) Michael Jordan
*facepalm*

I agree, fix your games first. Their customer service is absolutely abysmal! Yet they are always touted as being one of the huge f2p money makers out there. They don't care 2 sh!ts about their customers, as long as they got your money they dont mind.
A friend and I both have a ticket open with dragon nest for 7 weeks now. Yaaah Nexon!

You should probably have copied this bit from the T&Cs because you know a lot of your readers will be wondering:
"Open only to persons 13 or older upon entering who are legal residents of, and physically located within, the 50 states, Washington D.C. or Canada (excluding Quebec)"
Not sure what "the 50 states" are that they're talking about, since they didn't mention a country. But I think there's a country south of Canada that has roughly that many.

That's quite the mount reward. And I thought my green Proto-Drake was pretty epic. O.O
