There's going to be plenty of FOTL releases (Like PRIZM College) where people are going to be sick of them lol

I knew the app would be garbage before the drop even happened. That many people on an app is going to cause it to act up. It was a nightmare when they tried dropping last week. For me desktop through their site was consistently the best method.

Yes and it lasted longer than it should have even with all the issues.

The fact that the log in seemed to be locked makes me wonder if they had a program that was actively trying to detect and log out bots (and some real individual accounts somehow tripped whatever bot-flags they were using.)

for me i was locked out of the app and up to just a couple hours ago couldn't even access the app. i think the problem is in their new app, ever since they redid it, there have been some major problems with it, and i think that bogs down their servers

People already selling to the bottom as usual. If you see one sell for $500 why sell for $400. Bunch of knuckleheads that can’t float a $130 purchase.

Exactly. Whatever update they did in Feb/Mar killed the app.

I wouldn't get too worked up if you didn't get a box. It's a crappy product really. People are just upset because they want the free money. It's like Panini handing out free hundred dollar bills. Life will go on. I completely forgot about it today. I couldn't have tried anyways i was too busy sweating my nuts off at work slaving away for the man.

It is insane to me how many companies know they have a product in high demand well before scheduled release, yet never have the necessary bandwith etc to handle the traffic. Kinda think it is deliberate.

Anyone else sweating for the shipping confirmation to arrive? I've only got the initial order confirmation emails for my 2 boxes so far.

Don't sweat. It's the same as always with FOTL.

As long as you got a confirmation in your online order history, you'll get your box. I've never heard it be otherwise, and that is my own experience.

They're probably shipping them out in waves.
