Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

Yeah Balrog was hell. I was meant to go to a christmas dinner that night which i ended up skipping. I remember like it was yesterday lol
Congrats on your pick up too! looks like you made the wise (and easy) choice!

Of the two times i've gone for ap (got both), I have used this website. Not sure if it's a coincidence, but it was pretty spot on to my order placement to what my time said on paypal. http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/usa/los-angeles

It's people like you who make these forums so much fun... If you know me I do lots of grammar errors and run on sentences. I'm not trying to write novels so really don't care about being grammatically correct but thank you for that . You made me lol

I dont understand what this gets you. Jerry has said he manually flips the flags which is why they went up at different times.

Most of the pre orders don't go like ryu did, the button goes live a few seconds before three since pcs turns out on manually, so it's possible to place your order before the official 3pm start time, but you are disqualified for an artist proof. Those go to the first however many people that get their orders in starting at exactly three. So if you are shooting for an ap, this will help you to time your button.

Well at least I would be basing my time on a central clock as a point of reference and not just on some clock that might be horribly inaccurate. With these pre-orders, every second counts.
I've looked at a few clocks on the internet. Most of the clocks were +/- 1 second from each other. Heck, even the automatic time calibration on my phone wasn't too far off from the website I used (which was great to say the least), but nonetheless, I based my countdown time on the above-stated website.
Another time-based website I used was this one:
http://wwp.greenwichmeantime.com/tim.../pacific-time/
And even this one was equal to timeanddate.com

The Ryu 1:3 PO will indefinitely go down inthe books memory as one of the most intense and memorable. I scored the Reg and Battle, this being my first go at a 1:3 statues. Battle was my first pick for its aesthetic, and Reg was a no brainer for its accuracy and nostalgia. I've yet to figure out where it's going to be displayed.
That being said...I just freaked out because I scored a Battle AP!!!! So happy! Thank you thank you Jerry and team! I can't tell you how stoked I am about it!
And everyone else on the forums...you all made getting through the delay very bearable
