I think after 90 days of not logging in they delete your account so your SOL.

I got the last of my prizes Friday 2 keyboards and a 360 controller. I am not expecting my vista ultimate or other zune from zeroed accounts.

Hey guys... has anyone gone through the MCF Prime Suspects game? I really need some help with a couple items.

Both are in the Rialta Theater building. There's a medal item and a hat item that I need to click on, but before I can click on them I need to find the right words to type in. I've seen probably 4 questions (with different hints) for each one, and they seem to heavily point to the words "hat" and "medal", but those don't work... and neither do any synonyms I can possibly come up with.

I've gone through 29/37 puzzles in the Rialta Theater and still haven't been able to figure these two out. And now I can't go any further because the remaining 8 have either the hat or the medal (or both) in them.

For hat, copy and paste "three hats, two hats, one hat"
For medal, copy and paste "medal,medals"
etc...

The rest that you'll encounter is below....

---MILLIE the MILLINER---
Two parasols, One parasol
garlic,garlics
tea cup, tea cups

---RIALTO THEATER---
medal,medals
three hats, two hats, one hat
shepherd's staff^shepherd

Using this is the key to maxing out the entire 2640 tickets.

Normally, I think it's supposed to be programmed to accept either one of the comma separated answers. But for some reason, those answers are messed up. The only way to know that you need to type those in is when you click to get the answer, that's what shows up in the search box.

I have to assume this is for connecting a headset to a controller that's connected to a Windows PC. Nowhere on that page does it mention an Xbox 360 console. It mentions linking with a receiver (It's obviously Windows receiver otherwise they'd called it an Xbox 360 because it has one built-in) and a step that involves pressing the start button in Vista. The product page (http://www.microsoft.com/hardware/digitalcommunication/ProductDetails.aspx?pid=004&active_tab=overview) doesn't even sport an Xbox 360 logo to hint at any sort of compatibility with an Xbox 360 console. To boot look at this page (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/927346/en-us). It's directions on how to connect an actual Xbox 360 wireless headset to an Xbox 360 and it involves pressing the sync button on the console and the headset to link it whereas the ZX-6000 involves pressing the sync button on the controller and the headset to link it. This verifies that the page you linked above is describing how to link a controller that's connected to a PC not an Xbox.

Given all this and the lack of any user success that I could find in linking a ZX-6000 to an Xbox, I highly doubt the ZX-6000 works beyond the scope of a PC.

Dear Live Search Club Participant,

Thank you for contacting Live Search Club. After you have placed your order, if you did not receive a confirmation e-mail, but points were deducted from your account, then your order was placed.
If you did not receive a confirmation number and points were not deducted from your account, then your order was not placed. Place your order again. Be sure you are signed in when placing your order.
Please note, processing and delivery of any prize order may take up to 12 weeks or longer depending on your prize's back order status. When your order is assigned shipping information, you will receive a second confirmation e-mail.
Also note, the 1st confirmation e-mail is automatically generated and there is no way to access it, in order to send out another. It is just for your records and does not contain any shipping/tracking information with it, which is sent out in the 2nd confirmation e-mail.

I can't begin to count how many people have described an issue with the left click failing after a month of normal usage.
I had that same problem with another Microsoft mouse, the fix that I found was to open up the mouse (pull the little slick pads off the bottom and take out the screws) and pull top 2 pieces off the bottom, if you look where the mouse button contacts the button on the pcb for the mouse, it is just a little lock tab. For me, the lock tab was slightly bent the wrong way so that every so often it would not click right. I just pushed the lock tab back the right way and it works.
I imagine that eventually that lock tab will break off, and it will take some epoxy to fix it... not something the average computer user wants to or should have to do. Somehow I can't help but think it was designed to fail.

I already received the LifeCam VX-3000 that I ordered on 4/27/08 and just got a shipping e-mail today saying that my LifeCam VX-6000 shipped (ordered on 5/8/08). Still no word on the Zune that I ordered on 4/27/08...has anyone gotten one yet since they were re-added?

Ordered the aforementioned Bluetooth Wireless Optical Desktop Elite on February 24th.
Ordered Rock Band for 360 on April 3rd.

Just recieved shipping confirmation today from arvatousa on the Rock Band. I'm tempted to e-mail LSC about the M & K, after I receive Rock Band of course.

Considering the switch in prizes, I'm hoping I either get the last of the sets (as I so ordered three months ago), or a refund in points.

Getting that crappy set would really suck, quick Rock Band and all (did I also mention I have the 3RLoD?)

Someone confirm, can you get...:

1 of each item per household, no restrictions on amount of accounts (example, one account gets all 360 games sent to one house, while another account gets zune sent to same house)

&

Multiples of one item IF you modify your address (example, someone said he ordered multiples to his house, changing his address with numbers at the end, which made his house look like an apartment and yadda yadda).

Here is the answer I got about the rest of the Xbox Bundle:

Dear Live Search Club Participant,

Thank you for contacting Live Search Club Support. Unfortunately, due to limitations in availability, the XBox Bundle Items that are included in the separate XBox Bundle shipment are the following:

·Kameo
· Project Gotham Racing 3
·Halo 3

Our supplier has sent out these additions and if you have not received these additions, you will receiving them very soon. Unfortunately, with these added additions, we are not sending out the Xbox Live Gold Membership. Our apologies for any confusion that this may have caused and we hope that you are enjoying your prizes!



Ok so I can live with that. I just need shipping confirmation on the rest of the package and I will be ok.

When I got it, I felt like I was having an early Christmas! I don't even have a working 360 to play it on, either! :bouncy:

Arvato seems like an undeniable step up from Incentive Logic. I sound green when I say this, but give those guys a break (from the stuff IL did to you). I wouldn't be surprised to see them actually be able to right the wrongs, as they have the basics (i.e. prize distribution) down quite well.

Now if I could figure out whether my Optical Desktop Elite is in limbo or not :wall:

Do you guys know if this applies to magazine subscriptions?

If not (and you can get any amount to an address) you guys might want to consider using your points to order them and then cashing them in for checks here: http://www.magazines.com/ncom/gift_cert?cc_redeem=1

I got a shipping confirmation email for my DVD Camcorder I ordered a like 2 months ago. Should be here on Saturday.

I got a hypothesis as to how they ship out their stuff:

I think they don't necessarily ship the order once you place it. I think they have a quota as to how many items they have on stock. Once the last person orders and hits that quota, they take the item off the prize list and double to check to see if people cheated. After verifying the legit people, they ship all of the same prize item at about the same time.

I ordered a faceplate in Feb. and about a month later, they took it off the list. Some people's orders got canceled because they didn't have enough. Maybe their quota went a little over? And that's why they had to refund them. As for the camcorder, I've been waiting since I ordered (Mar. 24). I noticed some people are getting some of their items earlier than me. And they ordered their items like in April. So maybe they ship with batches?

I'd wait until have your new address. Or have it shipped to a friend/family member or a work address or something. Or you can get a UPS Store/Mail Boxes, Etc./Postal Annex box and have it shipped there. Anything that's not a P.O. box since Live Search Club won't ship to P.O. boxes.

At first it took me a good 15 minutes to do a game of Flexicon but gradually it became easier as I memorized the solutions to many repeated clues. With the occasional help of web sites to get out of the tough bits I got faster and faster with Flexicon to the point where I could complete a puzzle in about three minutes. Once you get used to the game and memorize the solutions you'll find that it's pathetically easy and it the long run it's a fast way to rack up many thousands of tickets.

05-27-2008, 06:36 PM
How fast do you guys complete a game of chicktionary, words slugger or spelling bee? It takes me around 5 minutes a game along with using all the hints. I'm afraid that if I type any faster I might get labeled as a cheater. Am I wrong in feeling like this or should I just rip through those games in under a minute with anagrammer.com

BTW I got shipping confirmation that my Zune leather case shipped. It was ordered 4/23 and shipped 5/23 by UPS and it's expected to be delivered 5/28 tomorrow. I ordered a 30GB Zune on 4/23 too and I'm a little annoyed an empty case is coming first.

I've been lurking around here for a few months, and finally decided to speak up. First, I wanted to say thank you to the people who gave the hints for the MCF Prime Suspects game a few pages back... I never would have figured those out, and I was getting extremely frustrated!

Second, I thought I would pass along that I ordered the Zune, the leather case, and the premium earplugs on May 5. I received the earplugs last Thursday, and the Zune and the case arrived today! I was shocked that they all arrived so quickly. Since there has been much conversation about the initial confirmation e-mails, I did receive those the day I ordered the items. I received a shipping notice for the earplugs the day before they arrived; a shipping notice today for the leather case today (but after they actually arrived); and no shipping notice at all for the Zune (well, not yet anyway). The Zune is a black "Academic edition" (?), and the case is brown. The earphones seems nice with the different sized attachments, which I am very excited about since I can never seem to get earbuds to stay in my ears.

I still have a lot of points left, so I think I'm going to try switching the mailing address and ordering another Zune as a gift for my best friend! Hopefully I'm not getting to greedy and won't anger the Live Search gods!

Good luck to everyone!!! (by the way, to all those who are just starting out, it has taken me a good nine months to get all these points, so just be patient and keep playing. you'll get there!)

I haven't ordered anything since March.. so I have no idea what this could be for. And I just got that package on Saturday. I also didn't get reimbursed any tickets. My ticket value is the same last time I checked.

got the roomba i ordered on mar 25th last friday. i received notice ahead of time that it was shipped and they gave me a tracking number for it so I was able to check its process. I mentioned this yesterday but there were not many people on. Has anyone else been having the problem with the hints that i am having. every hint has %20 between every word in the search window. Here is an example of one of the hints.

EDIT:

Beat me to it by a minute JMichael. The new big prize is a Kitchen Aid Mixer. BUT the 360 controller is back so maybe this is an omen of me being able to finally get that 360.

Also, found this little interesting tid-bit in the FAQ:

How many prizes can I earn? Back to Top (http://club.live.com/Pages/about/about.aspx#PageTop)
Each household address is limited to redeeming tickets for up to three of the same software items and three of the same hardware items. Non-software and non-hardware prizes are not limited on a per household basis. Software prizes may include Windows Vista Operating Systems and game software. Hardware prizes may include keyboards, web cameras or headsets. In the non-hardware and non-software category, prizes may include song and ringtone downloads, frequent flyer miles, clothing and wearable accessories.

That Hidden Expedition Titanic game is kind of similar to MCF Prime Suspects, but harder because they penalize you (time) for wrong clicks. Using the "hint" button to find the item helps, but they take away a minute for it.

i think they may be sending out a new 'wave' of controllers.
reasoning is:
1)i got an email from them saying i ordered the same thing twice (only item i did this with was the controllers
2) restock of prizes.

keep a look out everyone and let us know when/if you start to get them. dont forget to also put when you ordered them.

thanks :) and good luck

I ordered 2 controllers back in Feb, and a few weeks ago they reimbursed my tickets for one of the 2. I hoped they were going to ship it then, but they didn't. They finally sent me the email saying they cancelled the order and reimbursed tickets a couple of days ago. Hopefully they'll start getting them out seeing as it is in the prize list again...

OK, guys, I am a little puzzled right now. I ordered the wired headset on 4/22 and received it yesterday, 5/27(no signature required). I come home today, and find a note from UPS saying missed delivery, due to lack of signature. The thing I ordered from them after the headset was my Zune on 5/15, which would seem really fast if they came today with it. I am not expecting any other packages, and I cannot read what the UPS driver wrote as who it was from. They are going to try again tomorrow, so I guess I will find out then. Anyone know how much the Zune box weighs? According to the tracking my package weighs 1.7 lbs.

Oh, and the reason why this is such a mystery is because when I ordered the Zune, I got no confirmation email, so I guess it would be possible that there would be no delivery email aswell. Hopefully I am pleasantly surprised tomorrow :)

Ordered one controller and the earphones today. I already own a Kitchenaid (Artisan model in a different color) and give it my endorsement. I also just won an 8GB Zune from Pepsi yesterday, so I no longer felt an urge to bite on the 30GB version on LSC. I still have ~22k points left: time to build it back up. If nothing else, another Kitchenaid would make a nice gift for a relative (if it stays in stock).

when your previously backordered item ships you will receive your 2nd
confirmation e-mail with any necessary shipping and tracking information.

Received two white Zunes and a leather case. All ordered 4/23 on two accounts and each shipped to two addresses. Never received shipping confirmations for the Zunes. Received shipping info for the case but incorrectly said it was 1.7lbs when looking at the actual package says it's 0.09lbs. Oddly I think the Zune case confirmation was actually not for a case but for the Zune. Another odd thing was that I ordered two RED Zunes but received two WHITE Zunes instead. Not complaining because I prefer the neutral color. Also I'd like to note that the Zune case didn't have a belt clip when the prize description clearly listed that feature. The next prize I have to look forward to is an Xbox 360 Pro that I ordered when it was available for that one day 5/14 or 5/15? I don't remember. :bouncy: I'll keep you guys posted.

This is weird. I starting playing LSC today around 3 PM EST time, and got 800 out of a possible 1000 for the day's limit. However, it says the day resets at 7 PM EST time. I continued to play around 8 PM EST time, a new day, and i've made over 1400 points..In other words i've made more then 2 days worth, even though i've only been playing for 2 days.

It seems I'm able to continue getting points to, because I have yet to get a message telling me i've reached my limit. A glitch perhaps?

Oh well, I think i'll stop..I don't want to get flagged for "cheating" #-o

playing off and on 7 hours, i've made 2,2000 points.

You won't get flagged for cheating going over 1,000. They know it is a glitch with their system.

EDIT* I seem to be having the glitch too... Is everyone able to go over? Doesn't really matter... More points the better. :D

Co_mommy I have a question when you got your xbox bundle games how did they come?

It came via FedEx with no shipping info. LSC told me I'd be getting it when they sent out the form emails to all that had ordered the 360's and it just showed up one day. Sorry I can't be more help.

BTW, when did you get your 360 and are you still waiting for the rest of the bundle?

It came on the 16th. I waited till that monday after and I wrote them asking about the games. They said the games would be coming and I could expect Kameo, PGR3, and Halo 3 soon and that the Xbox live card was no longer included on the bundle.

I just want Halo to come soon because with the target bonanza going on, I don't wanna pass up on getting it. I just might have to buy it tomorrow and return the LSC copy to target whenever it comes. I am still on the fence about this one.

Most people got shipping info, but I didn't. They've been shipping a lot of prizes out recently. Some have shipping info and others don't. They apparently haven't forgotten about you. Sounds like a plan with the Target idea. I may pick up another copy for our second 360.

You might want to be careful with returning the LSC copy to Target, the last couple of things I got from them have had an LSC sticker stuck to them, and i don't know how cleanly it will come off, just to give you fair warning.

If you have the Target ad and a local Circuit City, you can get an additional 10% off at Circuit City with their low price guarantee (assuming they have them in stock). It's worth looking into.

rubbing alcohol works also.

thanks for the heads up. I was going to use the target $10 off coupon and get halo for 27.99. you think circuit city would honor a photocopied target coupon?

let's see how this plays out

I think the $10 discount will be better. It sounds like a great deal.
