I think it's interesting how IELLO is being called out on this when what they're doing is pretty much SOP. It just goes to show that no matter what, there'll always be somebody pissed off.
It doesn't show that at all. It might be right that somebody always will be, but that's not what this thread shows. Show me how offering promos through a lottery is SOP. It is far more common for companies to take previously limited edition promos that were popular and put them in the next expansion for the game than it is to hold a lottery. IELLO hasn't even said it would ever make the cards available again. I'm not sure that's SOP. I think more what they are saying is close to SOP - it's SOL.
That was a clever attempt at acronym humor, except that it made no sense whatsoever. I was referring to them using their promotional materials as they see fit whether you approve of it or not. It's clear they've lost a customer, as you are clearly convinced that you are entitled to something that you're not. However, after spending my college years toiling in the retail sphere, there's at least one thing I learned: some customers aren't going to be happy no matter what.
What a joke. Who are you to say my demands are excessive? Who gave you that power? I am only asking them to do what many other companies have done. It doesn't surprise me at all that you pick on my humor attempt since you can't find fault with the point I made. You're also clearly off base about customers not being happy no matter what. All they have to do is let me buy the promos outright or put them in the next expansion and let me buy that. There's two ways to make me happy so you are wrong again.
Ok, I concede. Obviously your "points" have been overwhelmingly supported here. It's not like it's been a constant barrage of people trying to show you how you're being unreasonable or anything. It's truly inspiring how you've held firm to your belief that IELLO owes you something. It's like the great George Costanza once said, "Remember, Jerry, it's not a lie, if YOU believe it". Congratulations on being so clearly correct here. I hope IELLO comes to their senses and gives you what you so richly deserve for doing what tens of thousands of other people have done, i.e. buying their game. I'll have to console myself by going off to play some King of Tokyo. I'll almost feel guilty for including the promo cards. Almost.
