Denied....figures, i never, ever get picked in any type of drawings or contests
I don't think this was a drawing. Me and my dad entered at the same time on the first day as soon as the signup appeared. I think you just had to sign up really quickly to get them. My dad already bought the game he wanted so he ended up giving me his code SCORE!!!:D . It is weird because when you redeem the code it says Zune...

I don't think that was it. I was sitting in this thread watching when the entry went live.

I entered all 3 days, but have only gotten one email. But I got some points... :)
Yeah, it does say Zune when you redeem them. But they work...
EDIT- Scratch that, I DID get two emails. Gmail had them nested. Points on both! SCOOOOORE!

You have to enable your email program to show images. Are you using Gmail?

I entered twice (the last two days), and got two different emails with 2 codes. I picked up Geometry Wars and Uno. I hope you guys get your bugs worked out.

sweet I got one email that said access denied and I got a second one an hour later with my code :D

01-17-2007, 11:27 PM
I still haven't gotten a third email either....
I wonder if something messed up for the 3rd drawing, because it was supposed to ask a question pertaining to the Future Weapons episode and didn't. At least, it didn't for me.

I sent 3 entries.
1 Access Denied.
1 You Have FutureWeapon Microsoft points
and for the 3rd, I havent got any email yet.
EDIT
When I redeemed the code @ Xbox.com it called it "Microsoft points: Zune" I found that kinda odd.

I actually got Another e-mail from Discovery today with a working code. Anybody else get a new e-mail as well?
AlohaMars2
01-18-2007, 07:22 PM
I got a third email today of a previous code they already sent me, so maybe they know about the visibility issue? I just found it kind of odd.
Update: Just got a 4th email rehashing my second code I already used....

Got an email saying points were deleted. I'd like to personally thank everyone who got more than two sets of points.

I got a third email saying I won, but it was the same code as before... what a cocktease. I watched the damn show too.

Got a third e-mail with the same code as my 2nd e-mail also, weird.
oasisboy
01-18-2007, 07:55 PM
I got two emails and it was the same code. For those that got multiple free codes, what did you all do? I submitted 3 different email addresses and I only got 1 code...
I should have used my friend's name and his gamertag and I am sure that would have worked... damn, I am slow!!!:lol:

I also have 600 points and I dont know what to get. I might end up bitting on Viva Pinata theme for 150 points and maybe a live arcade game (although I dont know what game to get). I want Contra but IGN.com killed the game so I am downloading the demo and see how it is...
