I should mention that my package was shipped overnight. I'm guessing the others were too, as they arrived all around the country on the same day. Since no one seems to have received one today... unless they decided to send out another batch, there might not be any more coming

RIP Soren Ulfert
The world is going to end, the lottery and election were fake, and the only heroes are dead. Odd ending. I feel we failed them somehow.

I hope that isn't the case, but I would feel cheated a bit. I was just looking for some consolation for all the work I invested in this game. It is the least they could do since they didn't include 5 cities for the drops. Boy I sound like a whiny kid don't I?

Come to think of it, they have seemed to exhibit random selection for activities - I got a phone, but I didn't get the text message on it when they were sent. I did get the phone call a few days ago, which others who have the phones reported not getting.
FWIW, the only people who got the text message were those who had gotten drop packages prior to the "security alert" - which went out the morning I picked up *my* drop package (at 1PM PT), so I didn't get it either.
It does seem the Readers were a random giveaway - congrats to those who got it! How 'bout a pic?

We did. But damn did we try? Anyone ever figure out what the map is telling us. The coordinates on the blueprint put it in south eastern Nepal.

I believe this had a rather fixed ending, i feel as though we only failed because we were meant to. If we suceeded, the outcome would be impossible {a different version of the movie}... So chin up, we all tried our best as far as they would allow us to.

Sony Pocket Edition Reader PRS-300SC. Comes with a USB cable and soft pouch. May invest in a hard carrying case if they release one. They have another case with a light that has caught my eye. Will have to see if it appears on SonyRewards so I can get a discount.

is it bad that I am really REALLY hoping that the candidates will also receive one of these packages because my wife has wanted an e-reader for forever and I could just hide it and wrap it up for christmas?!?!?!?
You mean the playstation and video camera weren't sufficient prizes from being a candidate? Please, send them my way if that's the case!!!!
No I'm not complaining in the least. I am completely grateful for what I received. All I am saying is that I would've traded the video camera for the reader in a heartbeat. Congrats to everyone who received packages. This was a fun ARG!! Too bad it seems like it is over now.

Awesome point! Its so true.. there was no way we could have changed the outcome, what could we have done against the IHC!?
Win some, lose some (and half the planet, what's a few continents..? )
until the next game!

On a side note:

Alright i am going to make my final whiny comment since day three no package has arrived. I particapted throughout the whole campaign, through twitter, facebook, solved a CT puzzle and got my name on the website and also on the news done right website. Showed up to numerous gas station info to only find out that not 1 drop was going to be held in Phoenix( or 4 other states). Called the voicemail every other day. So I am over it now, that is my rant. One day, One day my efforts will be rewarded in a game in the future. On to Sherlock holmes.
