How many of you fuckers are there here!!!!???? :lol:


LOL I live in Florence my guy usually comes between 11-1 during the week. Never seen him on a weekend before. I went to bed at 3:30 and woke up at 7:30 and looked out the window for him. :roll: I'm gonna do some laundry and just stay up. I'm like a lil kid on Christmas, damn i'm a geek. :joystick:


I only have NBA Live and 2 copies of Kameo after the system arrives. I gotta go later and buy more games at Walmart since GR has mine held hostage. PLEASE EB get my PDZ in......:pray:

right on, I don't have much coming up in the immediate week (this paper i'm writing is due in december) but everything is packed in my last 2 weeks, along with worrying about moving to a new school, which happens next semester. every minute counts for me at this point, even when I'm slacking.

that said, every 15 minutes that I write, I spend about 45 minutes screwing around on the net looking at 360 vids and pics. no wonder why it's taking me 5 hours to write this piece :lol:

I know it is sort of a hassle but to get around itunes encoding, burn the isongs that you have purchased from itunes to a cd, and then "import" that cd back onto your computer and make sure to set the import settings in itunes to encode music from cd's to your hard drive as mp3 files.

I didn't move, and the rental office does not accept packages on our behalf. The UPS man just left the PIAB on my doorstep without requiring a signature. I was home all day and did not hear or see a UPS truck drive by (neither did the watch cat, who is stationed by the patio window facing the road most of the day when she is awake).

Yea, I am going to be talking with pepsi about this to see if they will give me a tracking number at least. I am a bit of a conspiracy theorist, so the situation which you describe above kind of worries me. They sent out 9600 of the systems probably from the same address so I'm sure that the UPS guys knew what was in the boxes and they will undoubtedly be difficult to come by for awhile, so I'm sure that there was some temptation for the UPS guys. Even if they weren't gamers, they might be interested in selling them at a profit or snagging one for one of their kids. It may be hard to prove anything if one was stolen.

Knowing UPS, though, it could just have gotten damaged in transit. Last week I saw a box containing some chemical that a vendor had shipped (and obviously marked that it contained a chemical) that was completely smashed. Another colleague had a box containing a bottle of fuming nitric acid (pretty nasty stuff!) that arrived smashed and the metal can that the bottle was in was also noticeably damaged. I have seen a piece of glassware worth $1k (vacuum manifold) smashed in shipping, and have heard stories of people shipping computers that arrived to their destination in many pieces.

Would UPS just give me the money for it if it was their fault? Of course, the biggest kick in the teeth would be not getting the damn thing and having to fight the IRS over taxes on it.

Apparently there was an "error in delivery" whatever the hell that means, and I will recieve it at my old address tomorrow. I have people watching out for the package. If anything else goes wrong Im gunna raise hell till they send me another to the right address.

The people that work for that hotline are retarded...

Phone Call 1)They told me that I couldnt change my address and that the package would get forwarded (UPS doesnt forward)
Phone Call 2) They told me the name was wrong on the package and thats why I didnt get it.
Phone Call 3) They told me that I am not in the database and dont exist as a winner... Then after checking again found me under the name they had just searched for.

Has anyone had a problem NOT getting gear?

I won and received my 360 but ordered a bunch of gear items -- and have received nothing. Now that you can't see your account history I'm guessing they just cancelled my order altogether, since I've never been charged for any of them.

I can see my account history perfectly, but here is a link to help you out since you can't phantomfriar2002:

Also I have received the following:

1 x Beanie (waiting for 2 more)
1 x Keychain
1 x T- Shirt

Along with the 2 beanies I am also waiting for 3 hoodies, 1 backpack, and 1 game case.

My beanies arrived the same day my free 360 arrived, the bag I ordered hasn't showed up yet. My friend got his keychains in the mail on thursday and his beanies the same day I got mine. Still waiting on my game as well. :)

They are slowly filling the orders but it seems they are only getting a few items in at a time.

Yeah, I received only some of my gear orders. 2 beanies, 2 keychains, and 2 t-shirts. I'm still waiting on 2 sweat shirts, the CD case, and the bag.

Thanks Neudog! I couldn't find that link on the main everytenminutes site.

OK so one of the items I purchased -- a binder -- went out on 12/1. All the others (the sweatshirts) have nothing next to them...but this DOES make me feel a bit better!

Well peeps, I have nothing in hand right now. We will probably get our 2nd game by this saturday December 10th.

Nothing here, either. Saturday delivery is not standard with UPS, so I'm guessing it will likely be early next week for most winners -- especially those on the east or west coasts (which would make sense if they were shipped Tuesday and went out Ground).

Tomorrow I could be playing NFS: MW, which will carry over to Tuesday since I have no finals.

Dord, I was wondering if the person you spoke to in reguards to the game said if it would be coming UPS or USPS like the "collect gear". Just wondering because I will be heading to Texas on Friday and was looking to play NFS:MW with my bro.

Its going to be usps, because its small. (and therefore cheaper to send)

I got a message from a friend on Live last night that said he got his game. He never got back on, so I didn't get to ask if it came UPS or USPS.

Sweet! I was hoping to get mine before the holidays. Crossing my fingers there is a slip waiting or I make it in time for the UPS. I might go to the delivery location and see if they have it in.

They tried to deliver mine this morning. They are supposed to return between 2 and 5, so hopefully my wife will sign for it then.

I am so giddy. How many got NFS:MW? I'm glad I chose this game because after renting it and Madden I would have to say it is the better of the two options IMHO.

Got mine around 12:00. I played it for about 30 mins, went shopping, and now I'm back and have been playing for an hour and a half. My prize pack is now complete, THANK YOU EVERY10MINUTES.
