This is still totally unacceptable. I was literally on facebook just now when the post came out. I've been monitoring it all day. I did the trick and chose a town with tons of people > 20. I stood there for over 10 minutes and no droid came. Eventually I saw the post where droid was out.

What did come was some guy in the droid suit named Caieko. He was going from instance to instance pretending to be the droid.

To me it seems PL puts out this incentive, users get excited, spend hours waiting around and when they accomplish the task they are robbed of victory.
