This player (who i will not name out of respect) has made this issue a public matter. So I now need to address this to stomp out any rumors, which I know are going around, and simply clear the air.
 
I think all of you can agree that I am a very open and honest person when it comes to pretty much anything I talk about. However there are things that simply do not talk about because I dont feel the need to share it. Sadly because of this player I have to.
 
Ganksgiving happened in Nov. 2014 and the first place of the Dominion side was to receive some swag sent to be by carbine. There are a few other swag items I havent sent yet either. Here is the reason and I hope this clears the air:
 
I've been out of work for almost 2 months, my wife has been in the hospital 6 times in the last 3 months, I have spent over 2 grand fixing my car due to the snow here, my son almost died from a virus he got, and on top of all that I did send the package and it was returned to sender. Which was my fault for not double checking the address. The coast of sending the thing is around 35$ because your not in the US. So that's 70$ I will have spent for a random person on the internet. Currently I dont see this as smart use of my money right now. I've considered not sending it to this player at all. No, I'm not going to do that, that's not fair to you. You will get it when I am able to send it. I'm sorry but I'm prioritizing my life and family and taking care if them first over your swag right now.
 
Mods I know this is out of the norm here but please allow for comments and/or questions. I am more then happy to address them and the community.

I think this is better served in a PM, most likely.  Personal information is often stressful and private, and sounds a little more important than some plushies.
 
Perhaps you can get in touch with Anlath and have him ship some swag to whatever place internationally the recipient is located.  It might be cheaper for him given the lack of ocean.

I think its good that you honestly opened up to the community to state why they haven't received it yet.  However, even though it is small etc, you should get it out to him as soon as possible.
 
It's really just up to the person in question to how much of an *cupcake* he wants to be to get his prizes at this point, but you really should guarantee it to him by a certain date, it was part of the agreement after all.
 
Just contact Carbine and have them ship that player new prizes.  You can send yours back to CRB whenever you can.  I'm sure their community team would be glad to help out, and its good publicity for them, to boot.

			Not to be rude, but maybe you should step away from the computer and really focus on your life.  Videogames are not a priority.  Family/job/money>Wildstar/Gigantic

I would like to help solve issues on both sides.  Baz, PM me your winners details and I will ship it out today.  When you are back on your feet, you can ship the swag given to you for this competition back to Carbine.  No rush.
 
I'd like to point out that this is not something, as a company, we can do often.  However, I totally understand that life happens and some circumstances fall out of our control.  Which is why I'd like to help.
