Note: You do not need a Facebook account to do this. 1. Go to https://www.facebook.com/hotpockets?sk=app_2155870884640272. Press "Get a FREE Code Here" and enter in your email. 3. In about 5-15 minutes you should receive an email with your code. 4. Go back to https://www.facebook.com/hotpockets?sk=app_215587088464027 and press "Enter Now". 5. Enter in real or fake information for the next part. (if you are not from US, enter California as your city/state and 90210 postal code) Your email has to be real however. 6. Enter the code in from your email and press start and then press open on the microwave. 7. After about 5-20 minutes you should receive an email about a free month of MLG. 8. Copy the code from the email and use the code at http://store.majorleaguegaming.com/hotpockets9. You now have a free month of MLG Silver! 10. You can do this multiple times with different emails. You can apply all the codes to the same account. After using your code, your account membership should update in about an hour, so don't worry about when it says your current term ends.
whole procedure takes 10-15mins. enjoy

Its legit, i got mine already.

Waiting for my code right now :D

the microwave opened and it says all i got was a herbie hot pocket lol, do i wait for an email?

Is this abusing a loophole in the MLG system or something? I don't really like the idea of stealing resources from a not uber rich company like MLG if it is. It costs them money to run the Silver and Gold Membership rewards, if a bunch of no payers start using it, wont that eat into profits significantly? Since things like HQ stream require paying for a more robust system, and if a bunch of freeloaders are on it sucking up bandwidth and resources that otherwise would have been covered by paying membership costs.....stuff like that.
If this is just a promotion thing that was intended, then woot?

If this is just a promotion thing that was intended, then woot? Given that HotPockets is one of their major sponsors, I'm pretty sure they won't mind. If you get the free silver this time around, not thinking that the silver/gold service is worth buying, you might change your mind for the next event after experiencing it, and purchase a silver/gold package.

This promotion started a while ago.
Here is Sundance's response to the promotion:
"All I ask is that if you like what you see then consider supporting us once your free trial ends. Either by watching the streams with ads or buying a membership. Keep in mind new features are rolling out over time.
As I've said in the past - we need to show that membership can work. We're beyond having a business that is supported by >70% of it's revenue coming from sponsors.
Do it for the marines!"
