Your tweet will need to be sent between Noon and 2:30 PM CDT on Thursday @Wintersong @Kuni Katsuyoshi

So, between 6.00pm and 8.30pm BST, or 7.00pm and 9.30pm in continental Europe.

Indeed.

Man I hate Twitter.

Indeed x2

Yeah Twitter is doing more damage than good to modern communication in my opinion. That said I can't begrudge FFG from using an effective marketing tool, and since I can't go to Gencon I'm glad they are giving me some opportunity to participate.

24 hours and 30 minutes left guys. Tweet @ffgames with the hashtags #KikuMatsuri #PhoenixClan . Then they'll send you a ballot to vote for your clan!

Yeah guys... twitter sucks... don't vote... I'm sure they won't even count it anyway...
*makes sure he's able to load into twitter for tomorrow*

Oh, I'm sure it makes me a mediocre Phoenix supporter, but... much as I love this setting, I'm not creating a friggin' Twitter account just to feel like I might have contributed something at GenCon.

No, it doesn't. You are fine.

I agree with Gunichi , in addition how exactly are they going to prevent people from outside the game community from messing things up... and I'm not saying new players, I'm saying random Twitter trolls from simply voting for Feths and Frakking.

Twitter is a horrible place to do a poll anyways as there is loads of people with multiple accounts, which allows one person to make multiple votes (and gain a disproportionate amount of power over the choice).

1) I doubt the twitter "poll" will have any great effect...

2) Its not about the votes, its about the trending topics. If some troll floods out #Kikumatsuri they are only helping that initial branding / marketing. If this sets a solid trending hashtag it will certainly circulate gaming news as heralding the arrival of the new "it" game to play.

Wait...so this is just FFG using it's players as free advertisement for a game they're promoting, and not a serious "poll" about which clan is best?

I find this very hard to believe that a company would want to promote their new product.

I like Twitter as a bystander watching interesting people try and explain themselves in very small spaces.

A good friend of mine is a legendary troll in the emo/metalcore scene on Twitter so I might toss my account briefly into the fray for a laugh.
