PHASE TWO IS HERE!!! Previously we have been focusing on recruitment, and spreading the word about. While that needs to continue I feel that with well over 10,000 supporters we can start doing more.
1. A letter campaign. There’s nothing like a good old fashioned letter campaign. Physical letters can often mean a lot more than digital ones. I’d like everyone who is willing and able to compose a letter to send to Bioware (just them for the moment).
Letters need to be short, and simple. Highlight why you are writing to them, and what you are asking for. Do not suggest ideas for a new ending other than in vague terms.
BE POLITE AND COURTEOUS. If it wouldn’t be in a Disney cartoon it shouldn’t be in your letter.
DO NOT send the letters out yet. There will be a single release date, so Bioware knows we are organized.
add: #RetakeMassEffect somewhere in your letter, so they know we are all in this together.
Can’t send a physical letter? Email works, same rules as above.
Where to send:
Mailing Address:
BioWare Edmonton
200-4445 Calgary Trail NW
Edmonton AB
Canada T6H 5R7
Email: contact@bioware.com
2. Donate to support.
I will be attempting to attach a link to our new (well will be new as soon as it’s created) PayPal account.
Donations will be used to further the cause of the #RetakeMassEffect movement (like getting a website professionally created).
I’m not asking for your life saving, more like whatever you found lying on the sidewalk or in your couch cushions.
I will attempt to make all financial arrangements as transparent as possible. However there is no way for me to guarantee 100% transparency. I understand entirely if that bothers you, and wont hold it against anyone in the slightest.
Best I can do is promise I wont take your money and buy myself a private island somewhere…scratch that if we raise that much money I’ll probably do just that, but only after we get the ending we deserve…or monsoon season, whichever comes first.
3. Send your ideas for a new ending to:
retakemasseffect@gmail.com use “Ending ideas” as your title.
Emails should focus on your greatest wants for a new ending. Highlight them in NO MORE than 10 bullet points.
I don’t want stories, just short, sweet suggestions.
RULES FOR USING EMAIL!!!
If you want to contact me directly please use the messaging feature in this group. DO NOT use the email to contact me unless asked otherwise.
I want to keep the email account neat and organized in the hopes we will eventually be able to use it to communicate with someone from Bioware and/or EA or related.
Use this group’s messaging service to send links, thoughts, pics, or whatever else to me.
Good rule of thumb: If I didn’t ask you to use the email address, don’t.
That’s be the first stage of phase two. More coming later.
OH!!! We’ll be creating an official YouTube channel too, but more on that later.
Participation is crucial right now! Get your nice paper and pens out and write a letter!
