ROBLOX is in the process of bringing our 9.8 million user-created games to the iPad. The first release of ROBLOX Mobile that supports online play is almost here. To raise awareness in the ROBLOX community of our imminent launch, we’re running a promotion targeted at ROBLOX game developers that will give them an opportunity to win a brand-new iPad 3.

Here’s how it works:

1. At random times during the days leading up to launch, ROBLOX will sell a number of “ROBLOX Tablet” gear items in the Catalog. Don’t worry users in other time zones – tablets will appear in the catalog at all times of the day. At least 10 tablets will be sold, possibly more.

2. The first tablet will be sold for 10,000 R$. The second for 20,000 R$. And so on. The tablets will be resellable and tradeable by users. They will also be designated as “Builders Club Exclusive” items.

3. On the date of the official launch, whoever is the current owner of each tablet will be contacted by ROBLOX HQ. Those who are willing to provide a valid postal address will be mailed a real-life physical iPad 3.

It’s like musical chairs, only some people get iPads. It is our sincere hope that the lucky winners will double down on their efforts to create great new ROBLOX games for the iPad. Keep an eye on the blog, this is one of the first places that we will announce the official launch of ROBLOX Mobile gaming!
