Note: Apparently the "Boss" sticker for Boardwalk Empire isn't live yet or it will be awarded at some later point? We'd better hear something from GetGlue on this quick, or there are going to be a lot of users up in arms. According to GetGlue's Twitter feed, "Boss is a very special sticker so it is taking us a little extra time to award it." Sounds like either the script someone wrote to check for the awarding broke or they're going to have to check the records manually. It may be a while before you see the Boss sticker awarded to your account if you rightfully earned it.

Shenanigans on the Boardwalk (Empire)...

Head over to GetGlue's Blog and read their latest post before continuing here. Go on, I'll wait.

You're back?  Good.

Ok, so if I'm reading this right, if you check-in on Sunday you're definitely going to get a Finale sticker (pictured below on the right). If you've been keeping your buzz going with the weekly stickers you're going to get the "Fried to the Hat" sticker in addition to the "The Boss" sticker (below on the left).



The part about "and select fans who have only missed a few of the episode stickers will be awarded their missing ones!" had me scratching my head. How many are they going to let you recover if you were out more than one? The line later in the blog makes it sound like they're going to flat out award everyone who's missing some of them the full set so long as they have at least one of the stickers from the series; they just won't get The Boss if they haven't been keeping up. I guess this is a bonus for those who got shafted due to being a few minutes late on a check-in or got hosed by a bug in the system. For anyone who flat-out forgot a check-in, you just got a reprieve on your sticker count. If you didn't at least get Lit back during the premiere, well, sorry; it appears you're still out of luck.

(I just hope there aren't any bugs in the system for the awarding of The Boss *fingers crossed*)

Don't forget to check-in to Boardwalk Empire on Sunday (as well as the other shows on the reminder calendar!)

Reminder Calendar Weirdness

I'm currently experiencing some issues with the sticker reminder calendar's Month view, and a search of Google's help forums shows that I'm not the only one having problems with an embedded calendar. For some jacked-up reason all the events are getting squished to the beginning of the week and not appearing on the correct date. If you actually click on the event, it will show the correct date in its description. Another work-around for this is to switch the calendar to Agenda view by clicking on its tab at the top of the calendar. Once you do that all the events in the agenda will appear properly, despite still being messed up in the Month view. Sorry for the inconvenience. Hopefully Google will get this fixed soon.
