Random Spec...
I'll bet that when it all shakes out, we'll find that the reason there was such a lag in activity is that it took quite a while for 999 people to complete the challenge. Yes, I mean a couple of weeks, even with all of the "relatives" and whatnot. I'm guessing that anyone who finished before November 6th will be okay.

How about some clever fellow create a Google spreadsheet with the names, numbers, times and dates? That'd be easier to keep track of. Might even be able to automatically adjust time zones, if someone is clever enough with the formulas and such.

It's looking good for us...I'm hoping that ALL the packages that are still out for delivery are being "Handled with Care"!!! USPS maybe sloooow, but they take care of their packages better then UPS...
Heh, I can legitimately disagree with that.
Sorry...I really hope they make things right with you. I just have had a LOT of packages damaged by UPS, but personal never had a badly damaged USPS package. I REALLY DO FEEL FOR YOU
Thanks, I appreciate it. And I hope that comment didn't seem rude or anything, I was just wallowing in self-pity. Nothing at all to do with your comment.
No not at all...If 42E doesn't take care of you hopefully someone HERE will.
Well, I sent them a heartfelt email at the flynn lives email account, so we'll see how that goes. Other than that I may just have to deal with it. I would hate to put someone out of a poster just because of some careless mailman.

To help with any time zone confusion, Omaha is CST.
I really think that anyone that finished in the first 2-3 days of the game going live is going to get a poster if they really are sending them out to the first 999.

US Postal Service kind of crushed my poster.
That sucks man, step in line. How bad did they get yours? Mine had bad creases and horrible bends all around the bottom.
It's enough to make me feel like I got warped one as Governor LePetomaine would say. Some bad "creased" points and a flattened area at one end where it looks like it probably got stepped on.
Circular mailing tubes FTW. Never had a poster damaged in one of those. Still and all, since this was free, I can live with it.

I went back through my Facebook wall and found the entry for finishing Arcade Aid.
I completed it at 3:06 EST on Oct 22 and received poster #004.

Thanks for putting in the work into gathering all the info into one place. It'll be interesting to see when the last person completed the challenge.
