It is whenever their IT interns* wake up and hand crank their servers

*to be fair, they might have doubled their intern counts to 4 in the past 2 years

Hmm, I only have 2200 VIP points right now. Was anticipating a coin to drop. And now this...

And now looks like you don't even have to buy the shuttle to "qualify" for the Ulysses VIP redemption?

I am just happy to see that it isn't starting at midnight.

I could deal with this nonsense while drinking my coffee in the morning.

I only purchased 1 shuttle on launch day with the space coin just in case somehow they linked it to the set as well.  Should be an interesting morning.

Yea, I'm a little paranoid now. I could probably swing by the store today and pick up a shuttle. Will have the set in my account history just in case that somehow is a requirement for the Ulysses. Also I'd get instant VIP points into my account in case the coin shows up as well.

Westcoaster here...I prefer midnight

I'm a night owl (double whammy getting up at 6am) and also less competition by old fogeys who need to go to bed early on the east coast

A combination of no trust for the advertised time and the perceived extreme rarity. They’ll just do it whenever.

Hope you guys have better luck with this, this is what happened to me this morning (the 14th, in Australia): Ulysses was advertised to be up at 9 a.m. but wasn't... rewards page had a lot of trouble loading but I kept persisting fairly regularly, without joy. About midday I was largely over it and only checked in occasionally thereafter, which went like this: 12:30 Successful rewards page load, no Ulysses; 13:15 Ulysses is showing, and sold out.

I hope they have whatever prevented it from showing at the appointed time sorted out, and you at least have a chance. This is going to sell out very quickly.

Why the fexx do they bother

Can't load the rewards page properly and having persistent trouble signing in. Rewards page begging for terms and conditions you can't accept (something went wrong)  Haven't even got to the rewards page. What a joke. Good luck to anyone still trying.
