First, sorry to everyone about the invites. Please let me explain myself briefly.
The 'contest' on the web page is still a lottery. Me getting a bunch of invited people would help me, but it IS still a lottery. Besides, winning the first prize from the furthest reaches of Europe, they would probably find a way to disqualify me anyway to keep the travel costs low.
Also, I only sent invites to people who have a) been active on the forum in the past year and b) have at least one post. That means active fans who are interested in X for sure. It was a one time thing and I, personally, won't send it again. The system, by the way, doesn't let you send emails to people who already have registered there and I believe that there should be a link in the bottom of the email that allows you not to ever get messages from there again (no idea if it works though).
The main reason for this 'contest' is for the Blue Blood fanclub, whatever it will become in the future, to gain a big amount of members and that's what I'm helping to achieve. Note also, that I'm not spamming the invite, it's a one-time thing (sai, if you got 5 invites, then there are probably more people with your email out there. If you got 5 from me, then it's a system bug somewhere). I don't really care about the prizes that much, the main goal still is to spread the news of the fan club.
And finally, I would have explained all this with the invite, but the form limited my 'personal message' to about one line of text, for some reason, so I was unable to do so.
So all in all, I'm sorry if some people took this as an offensive spam. I would have never done this if it was anything else than strictly X Japan related official issues.
