LOL dropping all 1000 at once was not fair... at all regardless of how you defend it... its not... 100 hour gives 10 hours of chances... its called not being lazy... instead they did it the lazy way and just copy pasted 1000 codes... being lazy doesnt make it fair either...
I didn't say dropping 1000 codes was "fair." What's "fair" in life is another discussion. But either way you statistically wouldn't have gotten one anyways, so what's the difference? 1000 people got codes who otherwise would not have. Unfortunately you weren't one of them (nor were tens of thousands of other people).
I understand that people are obviously super pumped and anxious to play and that's awesome but there's nothing else to be done. I'd recommend pretending no codes were ever given out, don't lose any sleep over it, enjoy your weekend and the sunshine since once the Beta drops on Monday, you may find yourself indoors for a while.
RE: All comments about how "such-and-such" didn't get a code and about how 20,000 people can play the Beta early.
I missed 1000 codes in the last 3 days. I entered at least 10 contests, and didn't win any of those. I was one of the first people to look at the 4.30.10 update, and didn't get the codes that were in the forum, or on the bottom of the page. And you know what? I'm just fine with it. Am I in pain because I missed out on a few more hours of playing a videogame? Hell no. Do I wish I had gotten a code? Of course I do. But Bungie can do whatever they want with their stuff.
You have no rights. Play nice.
And sure, there were definitley people who sat there all day on B.net and didn't get codes, but ITS A VIDEOGAME. Those 20,000 people are previliged to be playing a few more hours than the other 2.78 Million expected to play it. We haven't lost anything, they just gained. Its exactly what it says in the article. Everyone who has ODST and uses the campaign disc can still play the Beta TOMMORROW. And, again, ITS A VIDEOGAME. Don't get too obsessed over it. It won't advance you any farther in life. I'm not against videogames, but we must all remember that those who play them are previliged to do so. None of us have the rights to play them. We do it on our own time, to our own expense. And when you consider how many people there are in the world compared to how many will even play this Beta, there's pretty much no fairness to it. you might as well not have it if we want "fairness".
PS: Sketch, I quoted your post in my so mine would compliment it.
