By sunday we had barely broken the 1/3 mark to the goal, roughly 180,000 matches. 180k matches over two days across all difficulties. You're telling me within the time-span of a single day we had managed to grind out the last 2/3rd's, very roughly 350,000 matches spread out over all difficulties to complete the goal.... I'm sorry but to me that doesn't seem possible.
Either bioware is taking pity on us by intentionally boosting the numbers, or someone in their data collection department needs to seriously review their numbers.

The personal goal was limited to one map. So you had to play London once. For the community goal it was any map.Meistr_Chef wrote...
The problem I had with the event was that it was limited to one map. That's pretty tedious. Still...I did my part by having something like 15 silver games done on there and a couple gold over the weekend. But glad that we passed the event!

Used the Commendation Pack Help, I hoped I get one when I return home this evening.

LOL...reading fail on my part then. I hosted so many London games I have now learned the map pretty well. Guess that's the bright side.

Anyhoo, congrats everyone, I know I played a chunk more than I normally do on a weekend to help reach this target, and thanks to Bioware for the extra goodie in the Commendation pack.

There is a smell of crappie on this "victory". TBH, I'd probably fudge the numbers if I was them too.

I got a Harrier III out of the pack. Woot. See, that's the kind of stuff that makes me want to give a damn for the community goal!
Thanks, Bio.

DO remember that this is being played around the world constantly, on 3 different platforms (which isn't done by any other game that I know of) and some of these folks are ...well... a bit obsessed. That's like saying that McDonalds can't have possibly sold "billions and billions" of hambergers. I played something like 30 to 40 games myself over the weekend.

Kaotican: we were only 1/3 of the way to the goal with less than 24 hours left, then they went silent and we "won". They went silent regarding the numbers. I do not believe it. It's not being negative, I just take their own empirical data and can't make sense out of it. Because it doesn't make sense to anyone who was watching the numbers come in.

It takes them over a day to check the final numbers and announce a result SO clearly those updates they posted were giving numbers from substantially earlier in the weekend. Also, Sunday. I suspect a lot of people have more spare time for gaming on Sunday.

I had hoped some changes would finally result in fixing whatever problem in my account or wherever prevented me from getting the pack automatically, but at least the review can be requested faster than via EA's helpdesk.

We did it, all right. How we managed it is moot and academic at this point.
Now stop being killjoys!!!!

Edit: Xpilot on unix-stations in the 90s was perhaps even better. But then again, nobody here probably played that. Note to somebody: Remake Xpilot.

Seriously. Just say "Thanks" and keep playing. The game is still fun! I wonder about folks these days. It's not like they cheated you on your taxes or anything.
