The coveted collectibles are depleted, and collectors besiege the post of Lollipop World Congress Mobile Devices in a last effort to complete your collection.
BARCELONA – is the last day of the World Congress Mobile Devices, and as the clock strikes the minutes left before closing the show , collectors Android pins crowd the post Lollipop in the auditorium of Congress .
Is your goal? Complete your collection of 124 pins before the curtain falls.
There is an easy target, and I know that from experience. Scattered in the eight auditoriums World Congress Mobile Devices, the Android pins could only get from certain vendors, partners Android, and depending on the position or feasted rationed or dropper.
You had to solve riddles about products to earn the award, and others also required a copy of your pass World Congress Mobile Devices. There was even some posts where the staff ended up as traders, trying to complete their collections without abandoning their posts.
Some designs were restricted by the seller, which meant that if you had missed the first day of the congress, which could not find it again, unless you had luck in the post Lollipop, who gave Pins randomly throughout the four days.

This is not the first time Google has had this kind of competition. Three years ago, did the same at the World Congress of mobile devices, but only with 86 pins, with designs from Marilyn Monroe and Elvis. Attendees went crazy trying to get the entire collection.

End Game
While doors Congress close, I see the attendants with lace from its full of pins badges.
