Post-Game Swag?
A burning question in my mind...

Does anyone think us unlucky souls who could not claim the "electrify" screening as a prize will get anything sent to us from Flynn Lives? For example, a t-shirt maybe? I'm really hoping there's some endgame swag besides the screening, the buttons, the hollowed out books for Digital Pulse.

New Shirt - "I drove for nearly an hour to miss a package drop, and all I got was this Tshirt, oh, and a free screening, and, a die cast pin"

Im hoping they give out stuff based on who called in and solved the "Mastermind" code locks in those first few minutes.

People in the UNFICTION chat were ALL OVER THAT, right? Very Happy

I still can't believe all those FL badges we earned lead to nothing except what so far amounts to a personal pat on the back. Especially since they made a point to have a few hard to get location based badges and the main point that we can't share our personal accomplishments with anyone else on the FL site. Also the uber-rare "Digital Frontier" badge was worded with "wear this badge" in the description line which had me hoping we'd all get sent some sort of button set to wear proudly like a general would on his uniform for the FL army. Otherwise "Digital Frontier" loses the allure of its exclusivity since only those 16 people can view it. I was thinking they would send 16 of those out and we'd all be trying to trade our cars for one. One can hope...

Possibly an oversight, or possibly the result of an early decision precluding anyone from looking at anyone else's profile, which could be for a couple of reasons: privacy concerns in Real Life(tm), or privacy concerns in-game (e.g. characters wanting to stay anonymous and not have Encom or other nefarious types able to get information that might aid in tracking them down somehow); or simply not wanting to have to create and update fake profiles for all of the in-game characters.

You can share your badges on Facebook, which is probably what the PMs intended. If you share them on FL, everyone who sees them is already playing, but if you share them on Facebook, you might interest someone new.

(I agree that it's mildly annoying, though.)

Just got the Flynn Lives pin today...kinda underwhelmed. I mean sure, we got a LOT of swag over the past year (I missed out on Zero Hour and Digital Frontier, as well as every live event), but i was kind of hoping for one giant prize package in the end. Too much?

Ominous, maybe? maybe some sort of uber-rare pin to go with the uber-rare achievement?
