mikey.shake Posted April 7, 2015 Share Posted April 7, 2015 (*removes tongue from cheek*) I thought maybe somebody here might find this funny. http://mikeyshake.tumblr.com/post/115787393463/dear-activision 20 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Army Of 2600 Posted April 7, 2015 Share Posted April 7, 2015 Better late than never. Great job! Give this man his patch. He's earned it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+TwentySixHundred Posted April 8, 2015 Share Posted April 8, 2015 I have no doubt's an email will get sent around the Activision office about this one, nice work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomas Jentzsch Posted April 8, 2015 Share Posted April 8, 2015 Now we can find out if at least someone at Activision is cool or not. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Random Terrain Posted April 8, 2015 Share Posted April 8, 2015 Do humans still work at Activision? I thought it was taken over by a highly advanced artificial intelligence many years ago? 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikey.shake Posted April 8, 2015 Author Share Posted April 8, 2015 (edited) Ha! Thanks for the support! I realize it's not the most impressive score, after all. I suppose it's as much about the quest at this point as anything. I tweeted Activision and the "Activision PR" accounts with a link to my post, but haven't found any email contact address online (just Facebook and "log in for online support"). Does anyone have any email contact info for Activision they could PM me? I promise I won't spam them. I'd just love to be able to know that whatever else happens, the request actually made its way into Activision's hands, you know? Some kind of official response would be cool. Any signal boosting would be appreciated! Maybe if enough dust is kicked up... after all, someone dug up Alamogordo, didn't they? And nobody thought that would happen!

+TwentySixHundred Posted April 8, 2015 Share Posted April 8, 2015 (edited) Yeah i only found the FB and twitter accounts aswell maybe gotta be a member on their forums or something Edited April 8, 2015 by Tony The 2600 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomas Jentzsch Posted April 8, 2015 Share Posted April 8, 2015 You could try contacting Ken Love. He posted here on AA and was involved in several 2600 related productions from Activision. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikey.shake Posted April 8, 2015 Author Share Posted April 8, 2015 A wonderful lead to start with! Thank you, Thomas! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikey.shake Posted April 9, 2015 Author Share Posted April 9, 2015 PM sent... a link to the article posted to Activision's Facebook page... more tweets from myself... fingers crossed! Thanks for all the well wishes. The comments here have put a big smile on my face! If anyone has any other ideas on how I can get Activision's attention, or is willing to help spread the word, I sure would appreciate any assistance! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhd Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 I just did a quick Whois search, and it elicited one contact person: Admin Name: Mary TuckAdmin Organization: Activision Publishing, IncAdmin Street: 3100 Ocean Park Blvd.Admin City: Santa MonicaAdmin State/Province: CAAdmin Postal Code: 90405Admin Country: USAdmin Phone: +1.3102552000Admin Email: @activision.com Perhaps calling (it looks suspiciously like a general inquiries/switchboard phone number) may get you in touch with someone.

mikey.shake Posted April 11, 2015 Author Share Posted April 11, 2015 FANTASTIC! Thank you very much! I've got an email out to someone who may work in the press department, so I think I'll give it until early next week to call. Good sleuthing! https://www.atariage.com/2600/archives/activision_patch_page.html?PatchName=Private%20Eye&ImageName=PrivateEye Nine days left...

StanJr Posted April 11, 2015 Share Posted April 11, 2015 I would also not advocate annoying the crap out of them over this. At most someone there is going to think this is cute, but it could easily go tits-up on you and they could stonewall you. Tread carefully, young jedi. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikey.shake Posted April 11, 2015 Author Share Posted April 11, 2015 Point taken... and emphatically agreed. Though I figure the worst they can do is say "no". At this point, beyond that main desk phone number, I'm about spent. Unless a grassroots movement wants to make me their cause. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrMaddog Posted April 12, 2015 Share Posted April 12, 2015 Lucky him... I tried to get a Polaroid of the TV after getting over 20,000 (too easy) but nothing showed up in the pic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tickled_Pink Posted April 12, 2015 Share Posted April 12, 2015 Do humans still work at Activision? I thought it was taken over by a highly advanced artificial intelligence many years ago? Probably not Chinese. Just read that Intel aren't allowed to make their brainy computer even more brainy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+cvga Posted April 13, 2015 Share Posted April 13, 2015 Good luck. I wouldn't expect a patch though. Activision didn't have the patches when they made the Activision Anthology. They borrowed a bunch of them from me (and I'm sure others from AtariAge) to use for the game. I still have the Thank You Post-It note from Ken Love that was included when he returned my patches 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turbo-Torch Posted April 14, 2015 Share Posted April 14, 2015 If this works, I want my Laser Blast patch! I never did get around to sending this in... 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
