Re: Did *anybody* ever get their se4:gold rebate?
I can't remember if I got mine, or gave it to Aaron Hall.

Re: Did *anybody* ever get their se4:gold rebate?
I think I'm the one Geo is talking about. I still haven't got mine despite assurances from the Shapnel help desk about a month ago.
This is not now, nor has it ever been, about the money. It is a test. Most rebates take forever. I wanted to see if Shrapnel was any different. Apparently they are not.  I believe I could, working alone, process about 100 rebates a day. That's about 1 every 5 minutes. If they have 10000 requests, that would take me about 100 working days. Sorry, but the standard excuse, "we were overwhelmed by the response" just doesn't wash.
I seem to have a knack for getting myself into jams today. Not trying to offend ANYONE! Just pointing out a common, yet loathsome business practice that sadly, even Shrapnel seems to Subscribe to. If I am mistaken and my rebate has once again slipped through the cracks, I profoundly apologize.
Kim

Re: Did *anybody* ever get their se4:gold rebate?
I don't think it has anything to do with that, but I'll check into it if I get a chance. It has more to do with all of us at Shrapnel being constantly overworked.

Re: Did *anybody* ever get their se4:gold rebate?
I keep both Gold and , ummm, Plutonium ?
Being busy playing SE IV saved me more than the rebate - the only other game I bought was a AOW2.

Damn, do I know that feeling! 
And thanks a bunch for your help!

PS So you are handling this "in house"? Not farming it out to a specialty rebate house?

Re: Did *anybody* ever get their se4:gold rebate?
As a beta tester, I felt I shouldn't use the rebate. But i have added it to a growing collection of SE related papers and stuff I hope to add to my website soon.
