MCF star Lea Thompson to Host Live Q&A on Twitter [Recap now available!]

Congrats to everyone whose question was answered! I was thrilled to be Q4!! It was a lot of fun to participate and watch Lea's answers pop up in response to all the great questions that were asked. Many thanks to BFG for arranging the Q & A

Question: Does anyone know how we go about claiming our poster? Will BFG send us a tweet, do we need to keep an eye on the blog...? I couldn't find any deets on the blog or twitter page, so it would be great to hear back from someone in the know.

Thanks!

OMGoodness of all days! My Twitter acct got hacked yesterday and it took all day for Twitter to get me a new pass/login etc. I got my Tweat hacked I've been getting emails all day from people telling me there's some pretty nasty things I've been saying, LOL. Now I get to go retweet apologies. Glad you all had fun today talking with Lea Thompson.

I thought maybe they'd contact us via email initially, but if you check the "settings", it states they keep your email private. I really don't want to give Twitter permission to make my email public It would mean tons of spam, for one thing.

Warrior told me he thought they might use the PM system on twitter to contact the winners. Since that would be the easiest way to ensure those that entered could be gotten ahold of.

PM system? Wow, OK...I'm really new to Twitter. How do we access messages? I changed my status to "let others search for me by email address", though I don't think that means what I think it means. *confuzzled*

he's going afk on me right now, but i linked him to your post and asked him to tell you. I don't personally use twitter, I can only go based off what he tells me.

Edit: On twitter, click on the cogwheel and you see where it says "Direct Messages"? That's where the message will be. (got that from warrior)

Thanks, Spirit!

You're welcome, sorry re-editing my previous post, which is why the post has dissappeared, didn't mean to double post.

Hi Fishies,

I must not admit to knowing too much about Hondo's plans on getting the prizes to the lucky winners but not to worry, I imagine you will be hearing from us soon!

And just in case I will be sure to poke Hondo about it too!

I was watching even though it was a little past may bedtime and the questions were really great - you all read my mind!

Thanks so much for participating, I hope you had fun! (Only 4 days to go!!! )

Thanks, Laflamme, I just went and had a look, there were some good questions there.

Really sorry but I have to say I'm amazed by how everybody has been hooked into Twitter. I thought this was our BFG forum.

Hi Saskatil, I have never done twitter and don't knkow how nor do I have an account for twitter. I ssay ditto to your reasons and my understanding o why it is being promotted. However, even if small we do still buy and I hope that will be recognized by BFG in the future as it has been in the past.
Good luck to all who will be participating.

Hugs !

(((Saskatil))) here's a hug from your family

I don't twit or tweet. I will wait for the game, to see what all the hype over Lea Thompson is all about. She has come a long way since Howard the Duck. I just hope this game is better than the last one.

Hey everyone!

For those who missed out on last Friday's Q&A, you can now re-live the action over on the blog.

If anyone won a poster and would like to sell it to buy games, please PM me as I collect them. A very nice lady asked a question for me and it was chosen to be answered but was not fortunate enough to win a poster. Thanks.

Everyone whose question was answered during the Q&A wins a free poster, so I'd suggest that you tell your friend to check her Twitter account for a message from us
