Wow...I am finally getting my stuff that I ordered a long time ago (Like July or August)
Yesterday I received 2 T-shirts in my normal Mail. Today I received 1 T-Shirt in the normal Mail and FedEx left me a Door Tag stating they attempted to deliver a 1 Lb. Package.
I was reading on Amazon and a new 80 GB Zune shipped and boxed is 1 Lb.
I'm thinking it might be my Zune!!!

My .9lb package I received a few days ago from FedEx was Flight Simulator X Deluxe so I would say some kind of a game if you ordered one.

Why is MS sending me stuff when I cheated

You also can't bypass the 1000 daily ticket limit anymore just by leaving a game open for as long as you can keep playing.
Once you reach the limit, a little bit of text comes up above the game you're playing saying that you reached the limit and won't earn any more points for the day.
My problem with this is, my daily limit is supposed to reset at 5 pm, but it didn't. I started playing at around 2 pm and at 5:40, it told me I exceeded my daily limit. I wish they'd fix the site. It seems to always be messed up.

I think Microsoft didn't update their automatic reset thing to Daylight Savings Time. I used to play at 4:00 each day (pacific), but I noticed it was resetting at 5:00. That might be why.

They changed some prize pictures like the shirts, hats, and magazines and I believe they have special edition playing cards as well. And they changed the Flight Simulator X title to "FLIGHT SIMULATOR X DELUXE WIN32 ENGLISH" lol

I was hoping my 360 would be coming soon, but I'm thinking not.
The last 3 people posting about receiving a 360 got them between March 19-21. But they were ordered between December 30 and February 6. That looks like they got a large shipment and fulfilled a bunch of orders all at once.
So now I'm thinking that I'm looking at closer to a 12-week wait, since I ordered in mid-February. :-(

04-02-2008, 12:11 PM
i just started this. any tips?
p.s. i think CAG should be setup as a charity on the site. hehehehe
This is the rundown of LSC:
1. Free stuff for doing Word puzzles that uses their Live Search sevice
2. You must not use bots, but you can use www.anagramssolved.com (http://www.anagramssolved.com) for MOST of the answers
3. THe limit of tickets you can get is 1000. The game that gets the most points is Flexicon that gives 25 tickets. Crosswire, Word slugger, Spelling Bee and Chicktionary give 20 tickets.
4. You may or may not get your item due to their random "cheater" labels.
5. Sadly the best method for not being labeled a cheater: DON'T E-MAIL THEM!
6. The prizes aren't real great this time around. They did have the Zune for 20k tickets and 360's for 35k, but took them off due to supply. It's not certain if they will put the prizes and if the tickets will be the same
7. When you do get enough for a prizes, the website says between 1-3 months to get something (which, by the way, shipping is free!), but some users have reported getting things about 8 or 9 months after the fact. Best advice: Be Patient and look out for Fed-Ex trucks!
That should answer any kind of question about LSC. If anyone asks again, point to this post. If I missed something, i'll revamp the list.

You won't. Wait the twelve weeks you are supposed to, then, if you want to, contact them. DON'T CONTACT THEM UNTIL YOUR TWELVE WEEKS HAVE PASSED. That will make them mad, and, will prob label you as a cheater.

It is the honest truth. the same thing happened to me about my 360. I waited about 9 weeks then asked to see what was going on, then i was labeled a cheater come January. After they called me a cheater I ordered a controller and received it one month later from the same account. so it goes to show you that they don't really wanna give us the prizes anyway.

Miranda
04-03-2008, 05:35 PM
They added a new game called "Picture This" - the game pairs you up with another LSC player and they give you a search term and you each pick a picture that best matches the phrase. If you both match, you get points. At the end of the game, it converts your points to tickets.
Mostly a waste of time since it doesn't give that many tickets. The most I've gotten from one game (so far) was just three tickets. I think you can get up to 10 for one game, but you and the person you're paired with would have to match every picture for that.

They seem to be shipping some more things out. I had three shipping emails come into three different accounts that I've played on. I think the last time I played was at least a couple of months ago. The last email I received from them regarding one of these accounts was back in October of last year. These people are all over the place with their responses and deliveries.
Fedex should be bringing something tomorrow and Monday. I can't remember what the prizes should be so I'll post what shows up.
Good luck to those that are waiting! Fingers crossed you get your stuff.

I got into LSC because of an ad for Flexicon that I saw (I like crosswords). Next thing I know, I'm grinding it out for big prizes.
I play lots of Flexicon, Crosswire, and Chicktionary. I'm up to the new puzzles for Flexicon and Crosswire, have 1,500 or so left on Chicktionary. I'm moving to Word Slugger next. I occasionally play Seekadoo.
I've received:
Wireless Controller + Wireless Receiver (ordered 12/07, received 01/08)
iRobot Roomba 530 Robotic Vacuum (ordered 1/08, received 3/08)
I've ordered/am waiting for:

Do you guys think there is any chance of them bringing back the 360s? I'm wondering if I should continue with this? I'm almost half way there.

Do you guys think there is any chance of them bringing back the 360s? I'm wondering if I should continue with this? I'm almost half way there.
with the recent major shipment of prizes, i think club live is going to continue to exist. because of that, i think they will bring 360s back, because obviously that generates the majority of searches for them and come on, it doesn't cost much for microsoft to give away 360s. as everybody knows, the companies make money off games and online fees, not console sales, so they will make money even "giving" them away. if you're half way there, you may as well keep going.
thanks for getting that song stuck in my head:
Whooah, we're half way there
Whooah, livin on a prayer
i hope the curse spreads to you, so that everytime you play flexicon bon jovi is in your head.

if you cant wait for the 360 to restock pick up other stuff and re-sell on ebay.
its a good idea anyway cause lsc might flag you for one or 2 items and not ship them, but then you can still save up with something else instead of lossing everything.
IE get 10 things that add up to $360, they cancel 2 items you still have $350
as apposed to getting one 360 canceled on you and having $0...
just a thought :)

I just got a usb flash drive in the mail, and I got another shirt the other day. I must say, the shirts aren't bad (at least the brown ones).
So far I have received:
3 t-shirts
1 usb flash drive
still waiting on:
some webcams
some xbox 360 controllers (if I get a bunch of controllers I don't need, I will have a giveaway on here and perhaps another board I'm on)
2 zunes
a zune case or 2
Other stuff (I'm sure)

Um, may I first say, holy fuck, that's a lot of prizes, so congrats. Secondly, how did you manage to accrue so many points? Did you aim to earn a certain amount a day and then do that each day, or...?

I think they took out that verification code roadblock where you submit answers quick on certain games. I remember submitting ~6 answers on Chicktionary really fast and getting one of them, but now I haven't been getting them. Can someone verify this?
I tested this out. I don't think they've removed it, but they may have upped the "requirement" for getting one. I did maybe six games of Chicktionary pretty quick before seeing one, when I did get one I wasn't typing any faster than I was on the other games.

I cheated... a lot.
I'm surprised they sent out anything, I got everything on an account I used to cheat so far except the zune. It has taken something like 6-7 months for them to decide to ship this stuff.
btw afaik, all of my accounts got zerod and I'm still getting stuff. I don't think them zeroing your account means that you won't get anything, it just means that they thought you cheated, or they were feeling rather angry that day.
Anyways, moral of the story is, don't cheat, it's wrong and won't get you anywhere!
also, whats the deal with the shaq-fu thing? I remember playing that game back when I was a kid... is it a reference to awesomeness, suckiness, or greediness? or is it used in the place of an explicative?

ANYWAYS, the funny thing is I had some zunes shipping to my work address, scratch that, prior work address; I wonder if they will be honest and do the right thing and ship them to me or give me a call?

Ok, I'm starting to get really fucking annoyed at Chicktionary. When I first started playing, I could continuously type words without interruption, so playing it didn't take very long. Now, however, it forces me to re-click the game to start typing after every word, and it's now gotten to the point where I'll have to click several times before it recognizes that I'm typing. It's really starting to make it aggravating. Is anyone else having this problem?

When I started we could still get more than 1000 a day. I usually did around 2000.
I have never tried to contact them about things taking to long and eventually everything I have ordered has come in.
So I just plod along and see what happens next.

i like flexicon but none of the others. so to amass points i would play flexicon for the majority of the 1000 daily points, and then do a few games of chicktionary and crosswire since you need points from those too. i could never dedicate a day to pure crosswire action. also, i usually play without pants on.

To the people who use Livesearch regularly (100 pts and above), generally how long does it take to get the 1000 pts per day limit playing the highest possible earning game (the one thats 25pts)? I have no problem at all playing this game for the next 30 or so days, I want rock band drums, it would be worth it.

Depending on how well you know the puzzle and how fast you type. Flexicon has 25 pts, but to me is quite difficult without the answers. With the answers from anagramssolved.com, about 3-5 mins. per puzzle. Chicktionary is 20 pts and you can use any kind of anagram solver site to know what the answers are. Chicktionary takes about 3 mins to do dependng on how fast you can type.

04-15-2008, 12:07 AM
Thanks for responding so quickly. And after listening to what you said, I'm thinking about just doing chicktionary, less clicks for me and I can complete puzzles faster than I can in flexicon. Thanks again.

Thank you for contacting Live Search Club. This prize is out of stock and
has been temporarily removed. Please check back in the near future to see
if it has been restocked and is once again available in the list of prizes.

Is the 2000 or 3800 point camera support Xbox Live vision? I think some non-Xbox cameras can work with it, and maybe some of you have already done this? Thanks in advanced :)

I don't think I got any confirmation e-mails, but I went to redeem a prize today, and the person's complete mailing address was conveniently presented to me. So what's the best way to deal with this ****er?

Wow, I joined this a long while ago, and now some of the good prizes are gone(i.e. the 360 controller). Well, with the new Matt Lauer game that takes all of 30 seconds to complete, I am probably going to play this for a little while, but I have a question. Is the 2000 or 3800 point camera support Xbox Live vision? I think some non-Xbox cameras can work with it, and maybe some of you have already done this? Thanks in advanced :)
the only camera that works with the xbox 360 is the live vision cam
Ps. I recieved flight simulator that I litterally ordered march 25

Thanks to the Matt Lauer game, I finally got enough points (they haven't been adding new puzzles for the games I'm maxed out on lately) for the camcorder and ordered it today. There's not much else that I want to order that they have as prizes, so I'll just start to save up points now for anything they might add later on. It'd be nice if they add Live Subscriptions and Live Points... then they can just email codes and not have to ship anything.

To the people who use Livesearch regularly (100 pts and above), generally how long does it take to get the 1000 pts per day limit playing the highest possible earning game (the one thats 25pts)? I have no problem at all playing this game for the next 30 or so days, I want rock band drums, it would be worth it.
The puzzles are very easy to me. I play Flexicon and finish a puzzle every 2-4 minutes, without anagramsolved or any site like it. They're very simple and once you've done a few, you'll notice a lot of repetition.

30 GB Red Academic Edition. Has the Live Search Club sticker in the corner of the cover, pretty lame.
Very happy though, free is free. Now, should I sell or use..

Hey I just joined live search today. Is there any easy way to rack up some points. Also are those only prizes they are giving out? Fable seems kind of lame considering that you can get it for like $4 at the store now. Rock band and the video camera are the only things that interest me. Also how long is live search going on for?

I wish I ordered it the first day. I had enough points for it and everything, but went for one of the 25K prizes instead. I thought that no matter which prize I redeemed for that day, I'd still need to get another 18.5K later on for either Rock Band or something worth 25K points if I went for Rock Band, but then they went and upped the point value for it.:bomb: I ordered it about 13 days later though (doing 2K points per day when you could still bypass the ticket limit), so hopefully mine will come soon.

It is worth anywhere from 150-220$ depending on where you look.and are you serious you actually got your zune. It seems though for the zune they are enforcing the 1 software/hardware per house hold even if you ordered before that rule was made.

I never got a shipping notice for the one copy of Vista Ultimate I got last year. I ordered 2 other copies of Vista on that account and a 360 controller, but never got those and my account got zeroed when they did their mass zeroing of accounts last year.
For the 360, I got my shipping notice about a month after it was delivered. :-P They haven't sent me a shipping notice for Rock Band yet.
Don't e-mail or call them or you might get accused of cheating. That seems to happen to some people that have contacted them. Lately, people have been saying that they actually send real e-mail responses now. I still wouldn't contact them at all though. Just wait it out and you'll get your stuff eventually, even if it's past the 12 weeks it's supposed to take.
I don't know how the magazines.com stuff works - maybe they'll just e-mail you a code or something.
That phone number below my name is my brring number that forwards to my GrandCentral number that goes straight to voicemail. Brring pays 5 cents for every call you get ($1 each for the first 10 calls), so I just put it there to see if anyone would actually call it. No calls so far. :-P I don't post much, so the number doesn't get a lot of exposure.

Yes you can have two accounts with the same shipping address. It is limit one item per household (based on account holder address) of each hardware and software product. If you are planning to order more than one of the same item, I would recommend that you use a relatives address on one of your accounts.

No real way of telling. They said the 360s would come back at the end of the year. But with these surveys coming out querying if they should keep the site up, LSC may go bottom up. In July, it will be it's one or two year mark of being online. Maybe they're gonna let it stay up till the stock slowly dries into nothingness and LSC dies...may happen :cry:

Everyone keeps talking about them making money on these games. Forgive me if this is a stupid question, but how, exactly, are they making money? There aren't any banners on the search pages, and I don't see any sponsored links being clicked.
I was under the impression that the site is nothing more than Microsoft buying its way into a larger market share in the search engine war with google. Rather than spend millions on trying to advertise their search engine, they just spent those dollars on prizes for the heaviest users instead. Am I wrong?
