Exactly. It screwed a lot of people over.
In the Walmart down the street from us, people had been waiting there for more than 24 hours and then, a few hours before midnight, Walmart dropped the bomb that they were doing a raffel system. So even if you had gotten there first, the number one guy, you didn't have any more of a chance than the guy at the end of the line.
It's funny too. Old ladies and random non gamers were walking up to the thing, thinking is was a prize raffel and entered their names. One person who won was like "Oh, I have to buy this? I don't want it."
And the Target employees making fun of us was great too.
