Sideshow Codes - Discussion Thread

[Vpuik]

Plus now they can give out bigger codes they they can limit the total $ dollars given away.

Also I'm sure every website crash cost them couple of thousand bucks in manually entered codes.

I guess we'll see what is happening with spook this year.

Imagine the chaos if sideshow actually made their statues limited.

I don’t like it, but it does incentivize people watching their content. If you’re part of a group sharing codes, you have no reason to watch currently.

The problem with this is that not all codes are dropped on their streams. I watch, so I'll be in line for most, but occasionally, they use other platforms that we then find through our sharing. I get what they're doing. Doesn't mean I like it

Heh, you think they’ll give bigger codes. That’s adorable.

At this point I wish Sideshow would just pass on the extra reward points to every actual purchase. No way I watch those shows with the time zone difference and this “wait in line” system is not going to help.

I hope they take this feedback and stop this before it starts being the normal. Waiting in line to then have to click a button to actually Enter the site? Umm what? Even if they are trying to eliminate groups, say you are watching Facebook, but they post it on Instagram or Twitter first, then by the time you see it you could already be screwed.

Should just go back to how it was.

I DO NOT LIKE HOW THE NEW CODES ARE DONE. COMPLETELY STUPID AND WASTE OF TIME. Please change back to the old way.

Sounds like they are going to limit it to the number of people in the event.

200 people watching the Facebook feed, code will be limited to 200.

The free for all seems to be over.

Let's make a bet - what gets fixed first? The double posting error on this site or SSC's waiting in line for code queue? Man, I haven't seen so many double postings in my life.
