Starting to think I have an outside chance of getting a poster. I think I finished somewhere around mid-day on the 23rd. Any way of knowing if something was delivered to my house if I haven't received it? Just in case it might have been purloined from my doorstep.

Hey cool -- looks like I have an okay chance of getting a poster. I thought I may have been outside the time period for the first 999 since I had completed the puzzle later in the day on the 23rd. (stupid spelling error on my part, if I had been paying attention I would've finished it on the first day).
If I'm fortunate I just might get a poster in the late 800s early 900s.

When did you finish?
I wish I could say for sure. It was at work (and I really pushed my luck to get it done) sometime between 1pm and 2pm AZ time. I'm also pretty sure it was one day after everyone had figured it out, it was luck I didn't check uF the day the clue dropped but I managed to get a poster anyway

I can't imagine how good it will feel for the person who got/gets 999.

I bet the arcade aid v2 game took 2-3 days for 999 people to complete it
and once people started reporting getting posters in the mail it took 20-30mins to get 999 people to complete it

I'm guessing no poster for me. I tuned out for a couple days and showed up too late to the party.
Still, this ARG has been so freakin worth it. I've got pins, badges and fun reasons to procrastinate from my work!

I hope not, but I suppose all good things must come to an end? When was the last time someone received pins?

Latest confirmed time of completion looks to be 5:00pm PST for #838. I am thinking Coggy was done at 10:21AM, waiting for his reply.
If I were a betting man (and I am), it's looking like anyone that got done on the 23rd should be getting one..... anytime after that, looks like you're out of luck.
