Thanks for the info Opti...much appreciated.

I really have no issue with the idea of giving the portrait to the fans...I guess my issue is more that it's being promoted through a CGL...the company is benefiting from the "free press". I would rather have seen the offer opened up through the forums (here, DS, etc) with the odd shout from FB.

At end if the day, not a biggie...don't regret contributing. Hope my opinion is in the minority and that I've just "read" it wrong. ;)

Eat some crow, huh?  Opti, does this mean that AJ is soliciting you?
Feel free to keep any karma you earned illicitly, it's on us.

Do you believe in a greater WIRELESS, an Invisible(WiFi) All Seeing(detecting those connected- at least if within 100'), All Knowing(all online data) Presence that we can draw upon for Wisdom(downloads & updates), Strength (wifi boni) and Comfort (porn) or do you turn your back on it  (Go Offline)?

Hey guys.  Totally missed this down here (I honestly don't regularly look at any of the forum boards besides the Missions ones most days).

Anyway, what Opti said is correct. I'm totally keeping Bull as the NPC in the game. But I ended up with a PC portrait, NPC in game, and the eBook name drop, and rather than be greedy I figured I'd give back some.

As for doing it through the Missions Facebook page...  I'll be honest.  Missions has been my baby now for 5 years. The overall responses to the Campaign and the fans have been amazing for those 5 years, so I wanted to give back a bit.  This seemed like a cool prize to use for that.  Jason and CGL didn't have anything to do with it (They didn't even know about it), it just seemed like the easiest and quickest way to do the contest (There are fairly tight deadlines for turning in info, so I couldn;t draw it out too much). 

One of the other things I do plan to do is once the game comes out, I want to do a Twitch livestream play (and I'll record and upload those to YouTube, assuming I can figure all of that out :)) and answer SR Questions and just chat with folks.  I've already talked to Jason about coming on for a while to join in for teh Q&A, and will hopefully drag a few others along as well.

I am VERY appreciative for everyone who did this for me.  It was amazing and awesome.

Well, that certainly devolved in the blink of an eye. :o

Touché  ;)

@Bull - thanks for weighing in.
