The link to the page with the questions gives me an error

This contest could be the motivation I need to actually get my DVD out of the shrink wrap.

That's because the contest hasn't started yet.

I saw, though the error message is kinda brutal.

Posting a contest before it starts. I suppose I should expect these sort of time shenanigans from tan by now. My mistake

As I said, I should know by now that when something shows up on the Anime network, you can't use it immediately, often for months and months. It's hard work being an optimist on here.

On a different subject, will this contest ultimately include a cool autographed poster like the previous show contest did?

Unfair, you have to be a subscribed user to watch those episodes. Very exclusionary.

Yeah, because we have the money for awesome cable and/or money to buy DVDs for the purpose of winning said DVDs.

I don't see how it's unfair. I think it could be seen as very sketchy that the contest states "no purchase required" when if you don't purchase something your odds of winning are probably pretty low, but I wouldn't call it unfair as everyone who buys in has an equal chance at winning, supposedly.

What is unfair, though I don't like to use that word like this, is that I have a subscription to tan and I have the Book of Bantorra DVDs yet I can't stream the show for months yet

This contest has actually gotten me to start watching the show as I'd put it on my backlog after seeing the first ep subbed. It never ceases to amaze me how a show that I didn't care for subbed can suddenly become interesting when dubbed.

Yeah, it is kinda brutal that the winner could already own part of the prize. Sounds like a reason for another signed poster to me, just my thoughts

Edit: I thought that Bantorra was only on comcast. I don't really follow all this vod news, but I wouldn't call Comcast awesome.

Fair would be a contest designed so that ALL members (registered as well as subscribed) are able to participate. The fact that some members (registered) are excluded from this is by definition unfair.

non subscribing members can still participate, unless I'm missing something, they just might have lower odds of winning.

In theory, you could guess at all the answers with a free account. The odds of getting them all right are pretty low, but still possible.

Book of Bantorra is on in its entirety on Comcast/Xfinity. It's being shown on the other VOD channels as usual (one episode a week). Ep 6 will be up on June 6, which is plenty of time before the contest ends on June 30.
