yup that is exactly what happened to me. I tried re-downloading the .pdf just now but all the new one gives me is an error message. GG I'm done trying.

Downloaded the magazine and just got my pet now. Obviously hasn't reached the 40k mark yet.

Oh Noes! The 'burbs!

I've emailed these people twice with no response or result. Got several emails with the same code that's already in use. This really sucks, and the whole thing is poorly executed. I'm very disappointed. And just for all this garbage that everyone has been through, I refuse to read their stupid e-magazine. Yes, I'm being petty and petulant.

Anyone who thinks this is a failure is plain dumb. The amount of free advertising they got for their magazine is staggering.

This just shows how desperate people are for a quick few k.

can't type..

I don't intend selling. I collect mini's on my main, only want one and don't want it for cash. If you could be a little more understanding maybe less threads would turn to flame, ever think of that?

Just got mine, with no problem. I think you have to submit your email address that is corresponding to your in-game account. I tried my university email account and it says the code is always used

Well I am sick of this minipet and I have not even got one yet!
I find it rather poor business that people can get one on their first try now and some of us have been trying for 7 or more hours just to get a replacement code for the one code we could get that was in use already.
I have no idea how you guys are getting more than one code. I have tried everything to get another code in hopes that it is not already in use and just get the same code sent to my email, no matter what email i put in.
I seriously hope that anet takes a good look at the kind of treatment many of their customers are getting from this ezine and thinks twice before partnering with them again. I have received 147 emails so far and they all have the same code that is in use. They are all worded the same claiming that I have re-requested my code (and I have not) and there has been no response to my emails about it. I will definatly not be visiting this ezine again eventhough the issue was a pretty good read.

Well I thought I had missed the boat on this one, fortunately I got mine about an hour ago . I got two codes sent to me that where already in use, nearly gave up but the third time one was sent and it worked!

Nice pet, buggy implementation though. Nice online magazine I have subscribed to the PC, PS3 and mmo ones. Beats paying a fiver for some paper.

This may be the case. However, playNC accounts are tragically bugged and we're no longer allowed to change our email addresses in guild wars accounts.

Thus my email addy no longer matches my gw addy.

I finally got home from work and errands. Sat down, downloaded the pdf, clicked the link, got my code emailed, unlocked it on my account. All in 10 minutes.

I'll sell it later.

This isn't Anet's screw up, it's the magazine's, not that I blame them. They weren't likely expecting the flood of traffic they recieved or to hand out this many codes. They'll learn from their mistakes.

I guess the 40k they say their giving out is still up for grabs really.

Just got one. (a working key that is)

I gave up trying to load the pdf after d/ling b4. BUT, I think ppl should just "open" it from them instead of d/ling it 1st. bcuz that's how I got mine to work...maybe it's just me...meh.

If you really want it, tried to get it....havent gotten it...keep trying..you'll get it. /eventually.

Who are you to say I didn't deserve it? I smell the pungent odour of jealousy.

@Miss Puddles: Did you try the trick of updating your flash player from within the directory you installed it? (e.g., C:\WINDOWS\system32\Macromed\Flash). Sorry if you mentioned already that you have

I had the same problem earlier; in the end, I found out that it's not stored in adobe. It does store your IP address, though, so the only way you'll be able to try again is if you change your IP. I actually had to move my laptop to the library. ><

@Psychology: First make sure that you downloaded the latest version of flash player from Adobe, then try going into the directory where it is installed (C:\WINDOWS\system32\Macromed\Flash for example) and run an application named NPSWF32_FlashUtil.exe, if you see it. It will give you another flash update. This might help, it's certainly worth a try.
