I actually think there would have been less of an outrage if the countdown just ended on a rick roll.
I would have been able to laugh then.
*sigh* Alright, alright. Let's all face it, we're not that upset, we were all extremely suspicious of this countdown affair to begin with and I think all of us can see why they would suddenly be limited to excluding most regions of the world to only US partions.
EA's hands can only stretch so far in supporting a community event and I assume their headquarters in Europe, Asia and Canada actually didn't want any part of this. At least, if EA is involved at all. If not, then it's because Bioware only has headquarters in the US and Canada, but some parts of Bioware and EA refused to support this bazaar.
So I wonder, "what now"? How do you do damage control on this? Well, not a lot was damaged, but I think this was a huge blow to the faith of the company from the community members on these boards. I just don't quite understand:
I've personally gotten free swag from Bioware before. It wasn't impossible then, what happened with this event?
