Figures, schedule for Freedom is before I can even get off work. =(
Freedom Horde! Join the Ranks!
I hate to ask this but... my birthday's coming up on Sunday, February 20th (Lucky 38 - just like Mr. House's casino in New Vegas!).
Any chance I can get the animal pack as a gift? 
I just spent the last two hours refreshing CoH's Twitter page in the hopes of catching the codes. Nothing was posted.
Has something gone wrong? Did I somehow do something wrong and miss it?

And yes, I'm VERY annoyed at the idea that they linked to someplace that is of no help in playing this game.

Can someone confirm this? I've checked their twitter feed and it shows no signs of the "giveaway" at all.

Apparently they were pasted on Facebook. I just ran into someone in the D who was a tiger and they said that's where they got it.

But... Not only was it not yet time for the Facebook part of this, but I've been refreshing THAT page too and there's no change I can see.|

I don't know what's gone wrong here, but it's upsetting to me to know I've been wasting my time.
Can someone point me to where these things were posted, so I'll know for next time, if I ever happen to have a shot at something like this again? Please?

You have to log into your respective accounts folks.
Otherwise you just see the public page.
When something good happens to me, I can never enjoy it....
I am always too busy looking for the inevitable punchline...
BEHOLD THE POWER OF CHEESE!

opening the linked page doesn't show the post. However, opening the URL for the image shows the image. Something is a bit hinky.

Just logged out and went to the CoH_OCR page and it's showing me the feed with the link to the codes.

I'm not logged in to Twitter and I see the giveaway post just fine.
I just happened to be at the shop when it was posted so I utterly missed it, boo!

I do not have a Twitter OR Facebook account, nor did I think they're somehow needed. The pages I've been on are the ones linked to in the announcement, and I STILL see nothing there on either of them.
Thank you for the information. I'll know better next time.

AAAAAiiiiiiieeeeeeee. where is it. the facebook one. I WILL be there for the Pocket D one regardless but... where... is... the.... facebook one. Did I miss something?!
Wait, you have to have an account?
...I wish someone had mentioned that in the original post. I feel dumb now.
Do I need to be facebook friends to see the Facebook updates in a timely maner?

It's too late for the Twitter part of it, and at least some of the Facebook stuff is gone too.

I think I'll be there with my monkeygirl in her best zebra pants. I don't expect to win a pack, but I fully intend to buy one anyway.
