Presumably 100. We said that they got the snailmail addresses off of msn or something like that? Well what if someone's moved away since inputting their address. Or someone put down the wrong address? How are the Pm's going to deal with those types of things?


I figured it was tied to the billing address of the Xbox Live account.

Well, that would make sense, if all the people had Live accounts.

But they didn't, so that can't be it.

 		I know the message said to wait, but has anyone already tried their codes on XBOX Live? And if anyone needs someone with XBL, I think they'll ask. Personally, I don't see a problem with advertising genuine help, but if it floods the topic full of pages then that is a concern.

A few people are saying it's related to Windows Live ID credentials. Which if you didn't have set up, you couldn't claim a key - so I'm assuming that people didn't make mistakes as it was obviously important that they had your address before they gave you a key.

!Edit!: Obviously not.

hehe -we tend to work on a slightly more frantic time frame than this. Wink
But great idea. Patience everyone. Smile


I had noticed, but I also still believe the PMs will give us something tomorrow, be it something on SOTA or a post by AR giving clues, the thing I've noticed the pace of this hasn't really got up to our speed yet.

Yeah. I was posting Guest before I got tired of entering captchas :(


When I entered in the key on the unlock page there was a form I filled out with my address and information. This happened to the other people who entered keys as well.

 		Hey ALTERNATIVE --

Can you post the senders address on here? I'm just curious as to who/where it came from. Maybe even a pic/scan of the front of the box? The clues aren't necessarily inside the box - if there are any.

I try not to be pessimistic, but I can't help but think that ONE person used fake information, or there was a typo or something. This is all super cool, but kind of high risk, don't you think?

I'm fairly certain I've seen two posts staing that on the bungie forums
