To add to the op theory (pure speculation, of course!): I wonder if this (by this I mean the slenderness of the swag--not that I'm complaining!--compared to servers 1 & 2; and the larger-than-expected pool of people receiving packages) is a clue to why the packages didn't get sent when we expected them to be. To wit: maybe the data as to who opened the servers got screwed up, so they had a list of far more people than they wanted to send t-shirts, signed books, etc, to. After Geppetto's thread, they decided to take care of it this way.

Again, only supposition, using my arg-honed powers of inference and deduction.

Sorry to repost old information, but I need something clarified about this theory. Does it mean that possibly EVERYONE who filled out that form for personal information like address and phone numbers, and all that just might be receiving something, as if its a small gesture by the people in charge of this little mishap to correct the mistakes made? THAT WOULD BE GREAT! If its true that is. I did fill out that form, but I didn't open any servers. I won't get my hopes up, but man will the next few days be filled with endless waiting for results.

well, i unlocked server 4 and I just got off the phone with DHL... nothing. she said there was something coming from Micro$oft, and something about a pick-up... but it got CANCELLED???? and she really didnt know what that meant... so.... we will see. I would still love to get some goodies and all, but I had already written the prize off. either way, the "game" was fun. and dispite my ranting on the night server 5 was unlocked, I still enjoyed being a part of this community!

Heh, I got one too. And mine also said ship by October 25.

Wait so if you have unlocked a server before you can get this package? Pretty weird might give DHL a call because where I live they always mess up on my packages.

So its possible that I can get a prize? I was in server 4, but got the runtime error. What page for personal information are you talking about? I remember signing somting with personal information somewhere for Iris. Where would I find out if somtings coming?

just called up DHL... Nothing is showing up on their system delivering to my address so i guess this theory is a bust...
