I am attempting to set the all-time record for no gear. I am closing in on 300 days . My Money was sent in March of 2013 I got nothing so far. Fulll disclosure I converted my order from 2 jallys to a 50th cloud order. Due in feb of 2014 that will make 11 months . I hope that they open their cloud in June putting me into the 450 day range.
