 		My Experience so far
Dec 12 2010 - Signed up on RocketPoppeteers. com
Jan 7 2011 - Got invitation email to fill out Questionnaire.

What should happen next? My Certificate in the mail?

 		From what i can figure?
The email with the questions,
Should get us the certificate?
The answers help determine what fleet you are placed in.

I don't think twitter has anything to do with it.

 		If you're thinking of signing up---DON'T DELAY
One of my roomies didn't snail mail the coupon at the first wave, then dragged their hind end, and finally sent in the snail mail coupon. Confused

They got the letter (not the certificate) with the postmark of August 15th of last year, and I've asked on this forum if anyone got the "first" letter postmarked any later than that, and there has been no response.

Another roomie signed up at RP as a new recruit two days ago, and today got the email with the link to the survey. Very Happy

The ONLY way to get the certificate (that any of us are aware of), is to fill out the survey, and from ones that I've talked with about this, there seems to be a common thread--answer honestly and you're in the Brain Blast fleet. Kiss up to Coop and (as one smart-alec put it) you get to be one of the other fleets' "helpers." Twisted Evil

I suspect, that with the original letters, so too with the certificates--there has only been a ceratin amount of $ allocated for ceratin aspects of this viral marketing campaign, and when they run out of certificates, no more will be sent, so enter NOW, or don't expect to get any of the current, and future, available swag. Laughing

That's just my take on it, Rolling Eyes

I tend to agree with this. Makes sense!

 		Certificate
All I know is that I filled out the application about a week ago and I still haven't received an e-mail with the questionnaire.

I think I missed my chance! Sad

 		Well...I have debated for a while if I would get in on this...and finally decided to. I registered, but was wondering...what is this about the mail in coupon, and has anyone sent it in recentlyish and gotten whatever back? I probably won't have much time for this ARG...but seems interesting enough.

 		Coming up on 6 weeks since our last clue/contact..

This is getting really hard to understand.. Why on earth do they start an ARG last May only to let it sit for weeks at a time with nothing..

I understand that at the time of the trailer and beginning of the ARG, the script hasnt been written yet so they have to wait for the rewrites and then filming to begin before they can actually develop an ARG storyline that uses names and locations plus plot twists from the final script. Its just frustrating checking in for months every day when the action is all saved for the last few months..

Gaaaaaaahhhhhhhhkkkkkk!!

That is all..

I hope those last few months you're talking about include January. Rolling Eyes

This wait has been way too unproductive. I've actually reverted to doing the NY Times crossword instead of continually digging for some sign of Josh Minker, coelacanth sightings, PDP-11 devices, Moby Dick comics, TROGLs, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera (as Yul Brynner so aptly put it).
