He clearly states that he doesn't think the FB promo will work, so I fail to see how he's fooling himself. Its in the part that you cut out when you quoted him.

Bliss indeed. =P

I knew exactly what I was quoting, the fans did put in the effort but in no way did the fans reach the million, the clock was rolled forward by Bioware/EA in the last moments, you don't go from 800000 to 1000000 in a few hours with clicks of 10 to 20 per 15 seconds.

I don't really care that they rolled the clock, it just irks me to see the fans pat themselves on the back for nothing.

And those clicks didn't count console users, which could have easily counted 200k+

Ohhh I get it, my bad. You're saying we were handed a "Participant" ribbon and yet we still think we won

Terribly sorry.

No. No, not at all.

I resorted to maniacal evil laughter, myself.

Then you must be blissful indeed! Console downloads were added in chunks, hence the jumps.

My EA account and my Facebook account are on separate e-mail addresses. I took part in the Facebook 'campaign' but have no way of proving that it seems... I agree with Chris' sentiment about only rewarding the people who took part, and not the whiners, but looks like I wont be getting the item either. Oh well <_<

Chill Brosky, you don't even know how they're going to notify people yet. Maybe they's send everyone who shared the game an FB message with a promo code.

Keep hope alive, friends. Keep it alive.

So fingers crossed we will!!

Agreed, I think Bioware are bunch of good guys and like to reward their fans. They will figure out a way to help those of us who tried I bet!...err... I hope.

We have discussed this in the thread many times.  The counter had to be updated manually from the consoles and other sites (which are not counted automatically).  The Monday it was updated to 1 million was after a weekend of no manual updates at all.  The count change is 100% plausible.

Guys I was thinking about this for those of us in the states (sorry foreign countries ) can we demand for gamestop to give out midnight releases just like for halo and call of duty. I mean we beat the challenge and almost double the amount needed. Id say this game is pretty popular enough to do it. What you guys think?

Midnight releases work on how many preorders a shop has.
Shop A has the minimum amount of preorders for a midnight release, it'll do it.
Shop B in the same town doesn't, no midnight release.

[tipipo86]

Aww damn I l don't think mine will danm it. Any fort lauderdale Florida dao fans pls pre order lol. I'm gonna die waiting for this game. It feels like time has stop and each passing day is irrelevant until that day comes.

[Demx]

So today is the end of the next round. What is the verdict?

[LordMarrick]

in the words on super smash brothers melee FAILURE!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Riknas]

I confess, I'm a bit broken up about this with the Facebook, I can understand Mr. Priestly's opinion to only help those who actually helped, (in fact I'm inclined to agree) however I'm upset (at both the possibilities, and my self) considering I genuinely did not want to participate as I try to keep my game life separate from my "mainstream" life on Facebook.

I probably should have done it, but I guess it doesn't really matter, I can appreciate the action either way.

[Abbbe]

So there is a chance only the people who shared the link on facebook will get the book ?
Personally I feel the last thing this game needs is more exclusive DLC.

Man, I hope they give it to everyone.  I mean, that's what they did with the demo promotion.  Why be inconsistent?

Edit: And anyway, if they're gonna wait till the promotion is over to tell us whether or not everyone gets the item, then there'd be no point in not giving it to everyone because giving the item only to Facebook contributors only acts as an incentive for people to do it. 

If the promotion ends and they give the item only to Facebook users, then all they get is forum anger.  THere is literally no benefit for Bioware to exclude non-Facebook people under this scenario.
