My hope is that they'll be staggering the drops by timezone so every city gets their drops at their respective noons.

Well, if the new drop time is at 12pm EST for Tampa, I won't be able to oracle for anyone. Sorry.

If the drop is at 12 for Tampa, I can oracle. Can't at 1.

I desperately want to be there for this drop, but I think it'll be another thing where it's all "you could go" when really there's no way it'll happen. Razz Depressed about it so I hope someone from here is going to Tampa.

Zero hour will be 1 our time. Make sure you know your TSN account's email, because if nothing else, you will probably get the Above and Beyond achievement on your profile. That is what happened for people with the Fac 3 drop. To the winner go the spoils! Wink

Hmm 1pm. Since there are 20 cities, I am assuming they don't this to go past 6pm in any time zone so there could 4 cities released an hour. But the question where to post up and 42 e. Has a habit to say a certain city, but the drop is in a next door city. Like they will say phoenix, but it could be in mesa or Tempe


Does that mean that even though they have Minneapolis listed the drop might not be in Minneapolis? I'm just wondering because I'd hate to be heading towards downtown Minneapolis when the drop is happening in St. Paul or someplace else. (I'd actually prefer if it was in St. Paul. I just don't want to end up going on a wild goose (or wild icefly) chase.)

No, sir, you are correct. The counter has changed.

Look for launch tomorrow at 9am PST / 12 noon EST.
(I'm updating my post with the cities to group them by time zone)


Oh dear. Excuse me while I go flail in a paranoid panic over the fact that my plan to meet my sister and start searching just shifted from "takes place slightly after the drop" to "takes place three hours afterward." (She has class, so she can't get away any earlier.)

Okay, time to remind myself that it's not that big a deal, and if anonymous ninjas get the Icefly instead, it won't be the end of the world. Don't mind me. ^^;;;

whoa the times have changed, geez, I had the entire plan out for about a 3pm drop this afternoon in phoenix., but I am glad it isn't towards the afternoon, because the traffic here is horrendous at that time. Either me or Acephelus should get this drop, and it should be fun. If I end up getting the drop, I will take AC with me to go pick up the icefly. SHould be fun, see everyone about 10am AZ time for the first drop.

Yeah! Go for it. I can tell you that the first Dallas drop was around Mockingbird in uptown, but I have no idea whether they're going to keep the same idea or not. My guess is it will definitely be Dallas proper instead of any of the crazy northern suburbs or the midcities or anything.

I'm still trying to get an oracle secured Sad Sad Sad

I am so glad I checked this forum. Otherwise I'd have no idea things had changed... I wonder why they did that. HOPE it's not staggered, that would suck...

I'm nervous too.
I've never been involved in one of these before and I'm still a little unsure about what is supposed to happen. (I read through the threads on the previous drops and I have the general idea. I'm just worried I may miss out because of ignorance.)

Tampa is 1801-1899 E 9th Ave btwn Angel Oliva Senior St and N 19th St, Immigrant Statue in park
(weird location)

Boston is 151 Tremont St, Boston Common, round stone gazebo (also a park)

Philadelphia is 3260 South St, closest to 33rd, at University of PA antropology museum grounds(across from Franklin Field), brick walk along brick wall, raised beds with dead plants (nice)

NYC is 215 Centre St, btwn Grand and Howard, in front of Chinese American museum, black door with ridges in white wall

Will edit w/other cities for those following along
