not everyone complains "just because it's what they do". i tried to get in several times, and was not able to every time i tried, period. i am sure i am not the only one either. still, the fact that LL did not have the consideration to make this a month event instead of two weeks, KNOWING full well how crazy events can be, in order to give everyone a fair chance to get in a shop and get free gifts and demos and so on, it makes me wonder if they even do care about these things at all. it would have been nice to participate in this event, but sadly thanks to LL's lack of planning, i can't now. and it's a shame. so, as you can see, i'm not "complaining" just because i have nothing better to do, but venting my frustration in the hopes that LL will learn the next time they pull this sort of thing again and make it fair for everyone.
