    So what did people have to do for this? I completely missed the entire thing as I've had a crazy-busy day at work and only heard about this now.

    For real! wth. I have to go rewatch it because it seemed to just flash on then off.
    But ZOS employees had a blast in chat cheering on the clickers and more than likely laughing at how they trolled us then promptly went home.

    I clicked for three hours, then I was afk for 30 seconds.

    Where can I watch the teaser now?

    Edit: nvm, I figured it out.

    people surprised that we only got a 7 second trailer when the main one was already stated to be for the 15th
    That Khajiit expresses most of our expressions at it being so short.

    Also I expected at least a 30 second teaser, something more than just a snippet of the real trailer. Have Tharn say something, have tablet burning and VO of "they're coming...", short video of Rich saying thanks to everyone and to tune in next week, anything would have caused less upset than this.

    Would it though? This is ESO forums we are on, the very depths of the salt mines, any deeper and we’d accidentally awake a Dwemer ruin. I expect nothing less from this forum and in fact I’m waiting for the first “slap in the face” comment.
    I think something which seems specially made for this event would have made people happier than 6 seconds of a trailer coming next week. Especially considering it took six hours of peoples time to get, and required* active participation.

    Personally I laughed, but I do understand peoples annoyance.

    * Depending if you believe the clicks were needed.

    For real. I mean, what was the point of this?!?
    THey already announced Jan. 15th.
    Then suddenly they announce this morning this let down? With Gin & Rich trolling the chat most of the day too.
    They *** taking down to others that are expressing their disappointment have the real issues. I feel sorry for their family.

    Nope.. that's not entirely it. People are angry because for some people (like myself) I stupidly sat there for 6 hours clicking because I thought it was going to be this incredible, awesome thing. Six freaking hours of my day was wasted. I wouldn't have felt so angry if it was 20-30 seconds long.

    I am not trying to be a butt however ZOS may have told us to click, they didn’t tell us to sit and do it for 6 hours. I clicked a few times, had fun in chat and then had to go about my day. If you clicked for 6 hours that was your choice and some people did get awesome things with free crap.

    I understand the anger and it sucks but it was your choice, ZOS didn’t tie you to your chair and force you.

    @Ahnastashia you mean, you actually sat there for 6 hours? When you knew it was going to be a teaser? You didn't do other things with your time? You didn't use auto-click software?

    That's... kind of on you for wasting your own time.

    That was a letdown.

    Actually I thought the khajiit was dejavu-ing the same episode three times in his mind. :D:D To the point that I thought "what a lame choice for 3x repetition of the same music". Then I noticed the video was actually 4 sec long and was on 3x repeat. :D

    Not really, they delivered on what they promised. Giveaways and a teaser and people were mad that’s all there was. Plus for some reasons some players sat around and clicked the image for 6 hours.

    Metrics. So they can point to however many of you sat there for hours.
