I emailed the unite address prior to the conference with ALL the details/pic they ask for on the createabadge page and still:

Wondering if I'll ever get one at this point. Let alone, being able to use it to login to the intranet.


How long have you been waiting?

 		It was on the 10th, I believe.

Just got a pair of replies from "unite".
1)

Got everything.
A badge was resent last week, but we'll make another today.
Let us know if one reaches you.
FLYNN LIVES

24 minutes later (I hadn't gotten around to replying to the first one, yet).

So... Somebody, somewhere, is intercepting my badges, I guess.

Did they confirm what address they were sending it to? Might be an error on the entry. Sounds to me like they are having the badges returned to sender rather than someone else getting them mis-delivered to another address.

 		Replied asking for a definition of "resent".

a) Remailed a badge returned by the PO.
(and, if so for more detail)

b) Sent a replacement.

If you are having it sent to Rogi Ocnorb as your name, I'd put my bets on a postal Nazi... er... 'employee' getting anal about something not sent to a legal name at that address. Have you inquired about it at your post office?

 		First attempt was to Rogi Ocnorb but I've changed the account to reflect my real name and any recreation of badge(s) would have been done under that. Still nothing in the P.O. Box. I'm told that if it's not received by Saturday, they'll use FedEx.
But, I sure would like to know what black hole they are apparently going into.
If I ever send any more stuff out for a game, I'm gonna make sure to include "Or Current Resident" in the address.
The P.O. has told be both that:
a) "We just put the mail in the box and don't care who it's addressed to."
(which I can vouch for as I consistently get stuff that's not just junkmail addressed to 2 former owners of the box, which in 1 case goes back 20+ years. And I get Rogi Ocnorb stuff at times. Though mostly letters.)
b) "Why would we put someone else's mail in your box? That stuff needs to go back to the sender."

So it really depends on who you ask and whether it's Tuesday and a full moon.

 		Checked the mail, nothing again. Unite has not contacted me yet. Confused I'm gonna make a new account and submit my info again. After that I'll just leave it up to fate. Rolling Eyes

 		Postal Nazis...
... Can't stand 'em.
We've got a postal nazi. He chewed us out for having our badges arrive under our player names. And said that next time he might not deliver mail arriving under a name that he doesn't know.

Me, personally? I laugh. Because technically it shouldn't matter -what- name is on it. Only that the mailing address is correct.

 		it's also a federal crime to screw with the mail. you're correct as well, as long as the address is correct the name could read Giant Hosebag and they'd still have to deliver it. was it the post master chief for that office or just a carrier? if they give you crap again or mess with your mail you should get in touch with their supervisor.

 		I believe it's just a carrier. I was having the same thought, if he caused any problems, I'd just go to his supervisor.

here's hoping he doesn't. Hopefully when my brother told him it's for a game, he relaxed a little.
