  1. Update December 2, 2011: In light of new facts, here's a new thread open for discussion about everything related to this. Issues were brought forward to us about the Green Day Across The World charity event, so we hope to address them as best we can. I do want to clarify right away that GDA had very limited involvement with this, aside from promoting the event itself (the May 28th clean-up) and the NYC meet-up. We didn't actually have any role with any of the donation requests or selling any items for charity for this. We saw it as a really cool idea to engage fans and do some good in communities around the world, and that's why we decided to promote it. Over the last few months, concerns have been raised about some of the items that were listed for sale by "Green Day Across The World" on Amazon or eBay. Some people were promised prizes from the May 28th clean-up that hadn't arrived and others placed ordered never delivered. We do know that some people got the items they were expecting, but it is impossible for us to know with certainty all the details surrounding this because we didn't have direct involvement. We've tried reaching out to Dawn to get answers, as others have done as well. These have not proven successful, so we've decided to close the original GDATW threads so that people are no longer directed toward any of the charity links or sales (though my understanding is that some have already been removed). There are honest concerns people have, and the lack of communication has been unhelpful. We simply don't have the answers, because none of us knew enough of what was going on to actually know. If anyone placed an order through Amazon or eBay and didn't receive their items, please get in touch with us (you can email me directly, andres@greendayauthority.com). We can't make promises about getting your items or money back, but we do want to try and gain a better understanding of the whole situation, and help our users as best we can. It's hard for us to really make sense of the entire thing because this was organized completely outside of GDA's involvement, but we do want to make sure we're looking after Green Day fans after so many pulled together to make this event happen.

  2. Thank you for doing this I personally haven't bought or won anything so I don't have any stories about that. I do have some thoughts about this, but they are probably considered gossip so I will put them in a spoiler. I am not pulling conclusions because I know she's allegedly been very ill (saying "allegedly" only because there is no concrete proof, not because I have grounded doubts about it), but I've noticed it and I'm wondering whether I'm being unnecessarily and overly suspicious. I'd like to conclude with saying that I hope I'm wrong and Dawn just got a bit disorganized and that's the reason of all of this, because the idea of GDATW was a wonderful initiative.

  4. Even though I didn't order anything, I really hope this issue gets resolved. No one deserves to be kept in the dark, expecially when they were promised something. It's really nice of you guys do be doing this even though you had very little involvment in it.

  15. Yeah I'd quite like to know what the story was with some of the Amazon items being described as being handmade by Dawn while the same items were listed by a seller from another country on ebay. Did you get any answers from her about that?
