Is this promotion still active?
Yesterday, they had a star trek icon at the top of their site - today I can't find the page for it.
Same..cant find the Icon and not the page...got all the other 4 rewards so far
The site is broken for me as well...it gave me the stuff for the first two days, (useless) and then disappeared... was looking forward to not grinding diplomacy on another toon
Same for me, I guess the event is over. You had to be there from the beginning until today, 5 days, 5 rewards

Me and many others can't claim the final reward. The event seems to have ended one day before. Very many complain. If you sucked too, write to support: contact@alienwarearena.com; and to the alienware forum. Remember, many people feel cheated. If we write enough we might get it.
Poorly executed giveaway...Apparently it was time gated, but ending time not made public... I got 4 out of 5 but it was day 5 i wanted and i got the middle finger...sadly...
I got the Elite Starter Pack two nights ago. The site was very wonky on my Mobile, so I fired up the site on the PC four nights ago and got the Federation Orion Science Boff three nights ago. Without that Starfleet Symbol on the upper right side of it was pretty impossible to get the STO Overlay.
When you clicked on the Giveaways Menu Item (off the three lines Menu Select Button), the STO Giveaway never was one there.

When I had trouble finding the overlay I would go to the news section and click on it there, that gave me the overlay and I finally was able to get the services pack the other day. Or at least it gave me something to click.
Now a LTS and loving it.
Just because you spend money on this game, it does not entitle you to be a jerk if things don't go your way.
I have come to the conclusion that I have a memory like Etch-A-Sketch. I shake my head and forget everything.
I have the same issue got to day 4 and no reward on day 5. If this was a timed event it wasn't mentioned anywhere not on the Cryptic post nor on the alienware site. It feels much like a let down, just not sure who is the responsible party here Cryptic or Alienware by not clearly informing the people how much time they have to get the rewards.
C-Store Inc. is still looking for active members on the fed side. If you don't have a fleet feel free to contact me in game @stegi.
seems it was a timed event for exactly 5 days... no spare room if you started late or missed a day.
It started on the 19th, correct?
23rd would have been the fifth day, but the promotion disappeared on the 23rd.
Not sure how anyone managed to get the 5th day prize.
hmmm not sure when it went live but noticed it on the morning of the 19th. got the pack on the morning of 23rd. by evening/night of 23rd, the ST icon went away. so some folks got the day 5 perk.
So far there is no word from either Alienware or Cryptic on that. I would like to hear why nobody felt the need to explain that this event was only of a short duration.

In the same boat here. I got all 4 prizes except for the 5th. Bit of a let down.

I got the fifth one on the evening of Sunday the 22nd, Eastern Time.

Ok, tried for day 3 yesterday after midnight, and there was nothing. Didn't know if I had missed a day because I tried day 3 on technically my day 4, but guess it was them and not me. Kinda TRIBBLE way to run the giveaway. And here I thought it was nice that the big prize was at the end so the latecomers would still get it. Guess they work it the other way around. Come a day late and you can't get it at all.
RNGesus, this was an Alienware promo not Cryptic's.
Has nothing to do with RNGesus if neither of the companies provided a date when it ends. Also if Cryptic has nothing to do with it why did they promote it on facebook and twitter and further how did Alienware get the codes?

Excellent point.
Is it still going on, I found it on alienware arena for the 1st 2 days but since got bupkus showing up?

That's not what he meant with RNGesus, it's like saying "Geez, it wasn't Cryptic, it was Alienware!"

why Alienware? they can only give out what they have... if they had X number of codes that was due to PW. there was no info on how long the event was for... maybe cause they had no idea how fast the rewards would be claimed? it's foolish to assume it's the fault of just AW. since we have no info, assume it's both, but realize they can only give out X number and that is on PW's part. This ran for 5 days... but based on reports not 5 full days... could be it ended due to codes all being used up.
Here you go.. some of these giveaways are still active. Some have no more keys, some are expired keys.
OK.. since that link doesn't want to work. When you're on the alienware home page, click the graph top left, and the click giveaways. You can scroll through all of them, or you can narrow you search with the search function.

Here's another one.
... removed here, even when the full exchange from both parties is on view on Alienware's own PUBLIC site. Muhuh.
