no, not yet. as soon as i found out it was premiering on the 2nd, I bought my tickets, cus the last time I remember reading the site about the "prizes" it said at the conclusion of the game on the 3rd, the tickets will be sent out. well, i have a part time job working with Zambelli fireworks for the 4th so i wont be able to see it that night. the 2nd and all day on the third i have tickets reserved, im basically going to sit in the same theater for 16 hours on the 3rd...lol its worth it.

With all the BS, slow running site, cheating, screw ups w/ losing my info, and all the other crap, I don't really even feel like going back. I will go back to see the end, but that is all. I won 3 more battles and it didn't bring my wins/losses back again. I feel like this is a HUGE waste of time. And I spent a lot of it battling trying to get that score up there for 2 free frickin tickets (and it was fun for the first week). But really...BIG waste of time, IMO.

I've had "16777209" people challenge me the past few days - every day....that's pretty sad.

I can't complain about speed - the site is alright for me in that department.

But I have to share this story. I had a brand new guy (0-0) challenge me...he was a Silverado, and I'm an Avalanche...I felt bad accepting...lol. I destroyed him. In the first two moves : He Punched my legs - 35 damage @ 3% damage to me:eek: ....and I punched him in the torso for 250 something damage, and obliterated his torso...like I said, I felt bad (but it was funny).

I got to talking to Pelgarotron and Mangatron about that. apparently people like POPUPimous have been creating donkey butloads of fake accounts and challenging himself to raise his win percentage. but to cover his tracks they challenge other high skill people. why would anyone in thier right mind who is a recruit challenge a level 10 "Warhorse" ranked in the top 20? im ready for this to be over, im getting bored with it.

I have two accounts. I have one under my name and one under my wife's email account. But, that is as far as it goes. In my mind, it's not cheating. We have two accounts on the puter and both are being used. She knows and says go ahead. Now, if I would have created a ficticious account or two...or twenty... to up my wins by a few more per day, then boot me the heck off. What I don't understand is exactly how popogenious get's a couple hundred wins in a day. It isn't feasible. I can't believe he hasn't been booted off yet. I mean...even if every member on here challenged him and he had thousands of challenges waiting for him, he still would not be able to complete each challenge to get him where he was today. It just takes too d@mn long w/ the site running as slow as it has been. It won't work. His wins have been achieved through cheating. And EVERYONE but the admins on that site apparently know it. Pretty sad. Yeah...I gave up on it. Especially since I worked my @ss of on my legal wins and got my win/loss counter reset...for good.

I've had a 0-0 record for a few days. My wins/losses came back though. And with the challenges. Anytime I completed a battle, my "you've been challenged" count goes down one. If I was challenged by 4 people and did 5 drone battles first, it went below zero to the 1666672012 number.

This last transmission better be solved soon, but either way: I hope all these errors are part of the "Mainfraim" storyline, or else this site has gotten WAAAY out of control...

You know what? I think folks have lost interest. My bet is that the ticket deal fell through. I don't think I'm getting any free tickets...SO...we planned ahead and bought our tickets today (1st) for the 3rd. I am tired of that site....yeah...too many problems.
