How do I associate my Xbox Gamertag to my Bioware Social account?
I signed up for Bioware Social when I bought my Dragon Age CE for the PC... using my everyday Yahoo email address. My Xbox Gamertag (which I bought ME for) is tied up with my Microsoft Hotmail account. Is there a way to get them to talk to each other? Apparently I can't get my ME Blood Armor because of this. I'd also like to see my ME stats, etc. updated here on the Social site.
Is there anything I can do?
Thank you.

You can contact EA support and have them transfer your Gamertag to your Yahoo address.

Oh.. so this would be an EA thing and not something for BioWare?
Thanks for the response!

Log into your ea account at ea.com, and add your gamertag as a 'persona'. It has nothing to do with email addresses.

Since it seems you cannot assign a Gamertag to multiple EA accounts it has everything to do with e-mail addresses.

If you have multiple EA accounts, then it's an issue with having multiple EA accounts, and still not an issue with email addresses.

EA accounts are identified by e-mail addresses.

Nope, they're identified by personas, you just log in with your email address, which can be changed manually by logging into your account.

No, personas are attached to EA accounts. A single account can (and often does) hold multiple personas.

Yes, I know that. Yes, I know that too. I was referring to the Master EA ID, which I categorized as a 'persona' in my last statement, because in the previous iteration of the ea.com website (the older EA Account Manager page) it was lumped in to the same section with them.
Neither of your two statements above change the fact that an email address is not your EA account. The email address is just how EA has chosen to have you log into your EA account, so they have it if you choose to opt in to their advertising. An email address which can be changed, and therefore is really just a glorified login name.
Your Master EA ID is your main account identifier, which the other personas are attached to. In fact, when logging in to your EA account for the first time, EA.com MAKES YOU create/choose a Master EA ID if you do not already have one. It also cannot be changed, therefore I would argue that THIS is your EA account's unique identifier, and not your (changeable) email address.
And with that, I'm not going to argue with you anymore, because a) it's a silly thing to be arguing over in the first place, and
it's really off-topic. Consider it a win, if you'd like, since I'm 'giving up'.
