how do all of you guys get all of these tickets :-()

I play Flexicon (25 tickets per puzzle) and use AnagramsSolved.com.

Dang.. I just ordered Rock Band a couple days ago, about the time that a few people here were getting shipping confirmations for it. I guess that means I just missed that shipment wave... and now I'll have to wait a few weeks (maybe longer? since it's an expensive prize) for it to ship :(

Don't worry about it. You'll get it sooner than you think.

I got my 360 controller that I ordered 5/30. I haven't received the one I ordered 2/25 though. I guess now I have to wait for the 360 console that I ordered from 5/14.

Well, UPS delivered my Rock Band and #1 Xbox 360 controller today.

:bouncy: Yeah! got my rock band today. Played the drums so far. I'm bad at it but I'm having fun.

Wish they would put some stuff between the 5500 - 25000 points
newer 360 games, xbox live points, maybe some more cookbooks :booty:.

Damn it! The 35k points I spent on May 14 for the Xbox 360 has been refunded to my account. Now I'm sitting on 90,000 tickets with nothing to spend it on.

Although I'm sad that I won't be getting a 360 the 90k tickets saved up in my account sort of cheers me up. :) Who here can say they can buy out almost all the big ticket items in one fell swoop? hahaha

Yeah think that i am maxed out on flexicon. I went through that maxed out then four puzzles a day about two months ago. now I am around 35,000 points on flexicon and no new puzzles for the last month. i tried clearing the cache and using a different browser and still no puzzles. Have you actually maxed out the flexicon puzzles? When I had it maxed out, they were adding 4 puzzles a day, every day, but I haven't had it maxed out for a while, and I can't confirm if they are still adding puzzles and when they stopped adding puzzles. If it's not actually maxed out (something around 25,000 points, maybe even 30,000ish, try it on a different computer/browser, or by clearing your cache. I've had a bunch of "all puzzles completed" that went away when dumping my cache...

Hello... Long time lurker, first time poster...

I too ordered a 360 controller in February, (seems to be the cursed month for some reason) and have yet to see anything. I e-mailed them once after the suggested waiting period and they sent a reply saying they now had more of the prize in stock and it would be shipping sometime in the next three weeks. I'm now going on over four weeks and am slightly annoyed to see folks getting units they ordered in May. I e-mailed them back again this morning to ask what's up. I'll post the response if/when I get it.

LOL niiiiiice.

I'd order an Office 2007 and possibly a KitchenAid mixer. Then I'd sit on the rest of the points until magazines.com gift cards came back. Just order a bunch of those with your remaining points; you should be able to get a 360 with that.

Definitely sounds like you are maxed out. The last time you got the "four puzzles a day" was also about the time IncentiveLogic got dumped, I'm betting the two are related. Oh well, there's always chicktionary, spelling bee and word slugger...

How is this even possible (Not double ticket day)?
But like double ticket day, it's probably counting a PDT day, meaning 12:00am till 11:59pm Pacific Daylight Time. Since the day gets reset at UTC 0:00 you can merge the 2 days into one PDT daylight day, MY GUESS is that's why it gets counted that way on those pages. The theoretical max then would be 1998 + whatever the highest single game can net you X 2 (80 points? 2 games of flexicon would get you 50 + 1998 = 2048), you should never see anything higher than that (unless the live search points can be added after exceeding your daily points, then tack another 20 points onto it).

Same here. Got the same email when I wrote them about it after the initial 12 week period was up. I have yet to see any indication that it will be sent anytime soon. Kinda sucks because I am moving in 2 weeks so I probably wouldn't get it anyways by the time they got around to it.

jtokchain5, to quote your sig:

My brother just ordered, and received within 2 weeks, his vx-6000 webcam. I'm not sure if they're ignoring orders made while incentive logic was in control or what but you may want to send them some feedback about not having received it yet. The first thing I ordered was in Feb (360 controller) and I haven't received it yet, but my son ordered one on his account 12 days ago and he just got it today. I need to contact them as well.



ok see i was thinking of doing that, but some1 said wait 12 weeks and then send an email about my prize. so yea then i guess i will send them an email.

While I'm annoyed that it's been over 17 weeks, and LSC says they have no idea when they'll be shipping Xbox 360s, I'm choosing to look at the positives....
1) They didn't accuse me of cheating
2) They didn't cancel the order

But at this point, part of me wouldn't mind if they refunded the points. Then I'd run out to Best Buy and buy the fracking thing.

Well this is disheartening. If they don't even know when they're shipping the backordered 360s...that probably means that 360s hitting the prize list again is ridiculously far away. Now I'm sad.

I don't know if it is illegal ; )

But if you don't return many items you won't get on a blacklist. Maybe if you did it a few times a week for a month flags would be raised. But a few times in a lifetime when your address is changing along with phone number they can't really keep track, but some stores are now recording driver license numbers which won't change unless you move states if I remember correctly ; )

I've bought a model higher than that one and I had to throw away the mouse.

The keyboard is good, but the mouse that I had at least was VERY shakey. That was when the reciever was 3 inches away as well and using different channels.

The keyboard works fine for me as I sit on my couch and use my tv as a monitor which is about 6 yards.

I missed out on it, but I'm pretty sure on the site where you redeem the giftcards you had an option to get subscriptions or to just get a check worth the value of the giftcard. 15 dollars 19 times is quite a bit for just playing games.

Dear Live Search Club Participant,

Thank you for contacting Live Search Club Support. Unfortunately, your prize(s), due to unexpected popular demand, is/are on back order and we have no estimated shipping date. Please note, after an order is placed, it is then processed for compliance with our Terms and Conditions for fair game play. After an order is processed, found to be in compliance, and your prize is assigned tracking information, you will receive a second shipping confirmation email with any relevant shipping and tracking information

Kind Regards,

So I guess I imagined all those people getting the ones they ordered as recently as May?!? :bomb:I'm in the same boat, I ordered a controller (actually 2) on 2/19/08 and they eventually canceled one because "you can only order one of each hardware and software item", which of course was just a few days before they changed the rule to 3 items and right before they brought the controller back for over twice as many tickets. My son ordered one on his account just a few weeks ago, and we received it earlier this week. Clearly they are favoring the order that take place while they are in control, rather than while incentivelogic was in control. I have to believe incentivelogic made a big mess, and it's going to take a while to clean up.

I haven't contacted them about mine yet because my account was screwed up when the new site hit and now that it's finally fixed, I think I will...

I wouldn't say "never", but it's probably going to be a while since incentivelogic really made a mess of it. I have a feeling that due to people telling them "you sent me 2 xboxs and I only ordered 1" and such that the new company realized some of the old orders went through and some did not. They are probably looking deeper to find exactly what has shipped and what hasn't and incentivelogic probably didn't leave much in the way of "clues" for them to get it sorted out easily. And instead of shipping stuff to people that have already received it, they're going to make sure everything is straightened out before they ship that stuff out. In the meantime they'll ship out new orders that they have kept track of.

All of that is totally theory, but I bet it is pretty close to what is actually happening.

Not to rub it in, but those of us who have old ones that will eventually show up (being optimistic) payed 2500 tickets for them, not 5500. ;)

You can look at it like that if you wish, but the way I see it, free is free. :booty:

I didn't take it as a burn, but apparently the other guy did. As much as I would have rather only given 2500 tickets for them, I'd rather give a few extra (in this case, more than twice as many though) to know I'm getting them. Perhaps M$ is hoping that those who only gave 2500 tickets will forget about them, because they obviously are sending them out.

Thanks for sticking it out Frog Ribs and e-mailing LSC which used to be an instant ticket to cheating. So apparently they are filtering through all the junk that UN-Incentive Logic has left and the work load is hard to go through right now. Again, it's seems like a never ending wait, but it at least seems much more hopeful.

I got the Zune premium ear plugs today, very uncomfortable in the ear, not recommended!

I actually think they're pretty good. I like 'em. You can send yours to me if you want! :lol:

The headphones they send are the 'premium' headphones that go with the Zune 30. There's an updated version of the premium headphones that came out with the newer Zunes...Similar design but with some sort of woven sheath along the headphone wires that helps prevent kinks.

It seems that with these types of "in-the-ear" headphones, you either like them or you hate them. Other companies make similar style earbuds....I've used the Sony ones and like them. But they feel almost the same in my ears as Microsoft's.

Not exactly... the Zune 30 and Zunes 4 and 8 only come with regular earbuds. The Zune 80 comes with the premium ear buds, but I'm not sure if they are the first or second version. Also not sure which version LSC is shipping out... (of course, I might of miss understood this, and you meant that the premium ones that are shipping are the ones that come out at the same time as the Zune 30 but were not packaged with them; if so, I don't know that for sure until I get mine).

Thank you very much for your time and response.

May I ask if more recent orders for this item with the increased ticket cost will continue to get shipping priority? Also, If I decide that the wait will be too long, is it possible to get the tickets credited back?

Thank you so much for your time and continued assistance.

Those codes are normal
I've noticed if I start going too fast, I'll get them about every 2 or 3 games
and if you go WAY to fast, you'll get them in the middle of the game, in a different format. Sometimes I'll get on a roll, and they will stop me with one of those, because I resemble a bot

www.anagramssolved.com (http://www.anagramssolved.com) is a great helper if you get stuck...

I use to be so excited to play on LSC and earn my prizes, but now seeing what the prizes are it is really sad.

I have this gutsy feeling that the Xbox 360 may come back. The reason why, is that the E3 Expo (Electronic Entertainment Expo) is right around the corner and rumor has it that Microsoft will unveil a new Xbox 360 with a bigger hard drive and discontinuing the 20GB version... In saying that maybe LSC will bring back the 360 and help them get rid of the 20GB (Premium) version to make way for this "newer" version that is rumored. That’s just my opinion if rumors turns out to be true.

Atleast they made good on their mistake by refunding all the tickets, instead of leaving people in a indefinite purgatory of thinking they will get 360s. Although, I do feel bad for those who ordered it earlier (in February?) and still haven't gotten it.

Well just goes to show, once I give up hope, everything starts turning up awesome. Hopefully this one sticks. Good thing I didn't go crazy with my pity prizes. On my wishlist the image of the ZX-6000 headset has also returned despite being unavailable (it was just the broken image x before) maybe some foreshadowing? Good luck all.

Well, since there's no 360 in sight, I broke down and ordered me some cookbooks. I won't let my tickets dip below 40k though, just on principle. Everyone cross their fingers with me that some badass prizes get added to the mix. Come on LSC, I did all the ticket conversions for you!

Xbox Live Accessory Bundle: 17,000 tickets
Xbox 360 Elite: 45,000 tickets
YAMAHA YHT-780BL Home Theater: 80,000
Philips 42" 1080p 120Hz LCD HDTV : 180,000 tickets

Come on...you know you want to.

EDIT: Awesome, I got 2 confirmation emails almost immediately.

Oh man I seriously hope these get added to the mix.

Didn't some people receive duplicate Xbox 360 orders? I think LSC did restock the Xbox 360 but mistakenly sent them all out to people who have already received them.

I received 2 Xbox 360's and 2 wireless controllers. The first 360 was an old model and the second one was a new one with the Falcon chip.

also i ordered them all the same day

I've ordered several things on the same day and did not get them on the same day. I ordered a bunch of things on 5/23 and have yet to receive 3 items even though I've received prizes redeemed in early June.

Once again they made a mistake with the Xbox 360...if you look good at the links it's written "Wireless control" at the end on both products (the wireless control and the "Xbox 360 Pro bundle"...maybe they do got the Xbox 360 in stock or maybe made an error again... I have enough points for in but should I risk it?

I totally agree with Frob Ribs. You really won't lose out on anything, best scenario you get a 360, worst, a month or so down the road you'll get a surprise windfall of 32,500 tickets.

For those interested, here is the response from the question I asked support about 360 controller orders placed prior to the ticket increase, (the questions was in regards to whether or not the recent orders would continue to take priority over older ones and, if so, if my tickets could be credited back to my account):

Dear Live Search Club Participant,

Thank you for contacting Live Search Club Support. Because we ship out prizes daily, and because of the volume of orders, we are not able to change a prize that has been ordered. In the meantime, we encourage you to continue playing to accrue tickets to another prize of your choice.

Also note, we will ship out your prize as soon as possible.

Best Regards,
Live Search Club Support

I recently spent the last of my points to get some Zune premium headphones. I made out pretty well with this site, Windows Vista Ultimate (sold it for $275 on CL), Xbox 360 Wireless controller, and the Zune Headphones (which work great on my iPod). I never did come close to getting a Zune or 360.

Long story short, the initial promotions company MS was using sucked balls. They were subsequently fired and the new company in charge of LSC has been cleaning up the shitstorm for a bit now. So slowly but surely everything is getting on track. I'd suggest getting back in the game, the new company seems to be really taking care to keep LSC as legit as possible.

Man, they would put both prizes back at the same time... Now I'm wondering what to do. I've got a little more than 20k tickets saved up (I got them right after they took the Zune prize down) and now I don't know if I should keep getting tickets to try for the 360 before it goes away, or go ahead and order the Zune.

I hope the 360 listing stays up (meaningfully) through the weekend. I'm about 3,800 short of it right now. Too bad I already ordered (and quickly received) the controller and premium Zune ear buds, as I'd have an order in place for a console otherwise. I like them, but I have less concern about them going out of stock quickly than the 360.

on a side note, when i got my 360 from club live it said it was a pro bundle. i got 1 controller and 1 headset, like any normal purchase. and then a few months later i got halo 3, pgr 3, and kameo from them since they never sent games with the original purchase. also, never received the gold subscription. if i had to guess, i'm thinking you won't get the subscription, o/w they would have sent them out to the original 360 orderers, like they did with the games. but i'm guessing you'll get the same 3 games. or maybe gow instead of halo 3 since it's on the ms retailer site as a prize too.
