Diceman Posted September 7, 2002 Share Posted September 7, 2002 "Ooooh, looky what I found" I says to myself, and then types feverishly. A minor cookie glitch and adjustment later and out prints order #__535. So is that 535 orders already, or did the count not start at __000? Oh and what's Seanachai's number? Inquiring minds want to know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ben Galanti Posted September 7, 2002 Share Posted September 7, 2002 Ugh, HTML e-mail follow up? HTML e-mail is evil... I'll still take the game though Ben Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madmatt Posted September 7, 2002 Author Share Posted September 7, 2002 The order numbers are periodically reset. Currently they should be in the 80,000 range so if your missing some digits (which is odd) it would mean your order number is 80,535. You should have received an email confirmation with the order number also printed at the top. Re: HTML email, yeah that got reset during a recent upgrade of the order system. Still trying to decide if I should leave that on or not. Madmatt [ September 07, 2002, 10:17 AM: Message edited by: Madmatt ] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be neat to have a little WAV file play a cash-register "KERCHINGGG" every time another $45 arrives Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diceman Posted September 7, 2002 Share Posted September 7, 2002 I'm not sure of the context of your post Madmatt, but I figured the 80 was irrelevant, and a possible cause of future confusion so I deliberately left that little bit out. My order went through just fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Claymore Posted September 7, 2002 Share Posted September 7, 2002 80616! I'm a little bummed that I didn't check the Forum earlier to get a lower number. Damn those Saturday morning cartoons! That's all folks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aka_tom_w Posted September 7, 2002 Share Posted September 7, 2002 Thank you for your order! Your Order Number is: 80611 (my lower number (611) lower than claymore's (616) was because I took too long to make a post here and I'm real slow at Math (see below: ) $45 x 611= $27,495 in the first 8 hours of pre-sales I'm guessing they have made over $27,495 in non - CDV (non european sales ALONE!) Good Luck BTS Hope you all get a nice long VACATION in the fall. I'm guessing by the time the game actually ships some of them should be relaxing on vacation somewhere ! Thanks again BFC!!! The Preorder process was TOTALLY painless! -tom w [ September 07, 2002, 11:11 AM: Message edited by: aka_tom_w ] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that the order number system includes whichever non CMBB sales BFC had for this tracking period, so by the time order #80611 roilled around they were up to 248 copies sold, which might be a lower number if anyone ordered anything different like AA. $11k + is not a bad take for a day in any case!

aka_tom_w Posted September 7, 2002 Share Posted September 7, 2002 this might not exactly be their idea of fun at BFC but folks keep posting those order numbers. Gryene reports they started around 80363 (give or take a few) so I think a running count here is a nice way to watch their NEW found financial success GROW right before out eyes. at almost ten hours after the pre sales announcement they have taken at least 304 new orders . I hope many, many more orders are placed!! -tom w Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
