[quadomatic]

So glad the magazines gift cards came back...I managed to order a few...

Last time they were up they were only there for 15 minutes. Since these have been up for a few hours, I think there's a decent chance the orders will go through.

[MasterYensid]

SuperSonic128 ordered "about 20" on 5/28 (http://www.cheapassgamer.com/forums/showthread.php?p=4422689#post4422689). He received/redeemed the cards for cash on magazines.com on 6/10 (http://www.cheapassgamer.com/forums/showthread.php?p=4468936#post4468936). And he received the check for $285 on 7/7 (http://www.cheapassgamer.com/forums/showthread.php?p=4582246#post4582246). So you're looking at about a 6 week turnaround from ordering to cash in hand.
If you look at the 7/7 link, and click on the show spoiler that's talking about LSC not being environmentalists you'll see he got a bunch of physical cards, and I'm guessing he did it all on one account as they all came at the same time.

Thanks a bunch!!! :)

[xDarkElement]

haha does it come in a check or what? Dont wanna deal with the hassle -___-
Ill save my 20k+ for a zune + xbox lol

[quadomatic]

Hmmm...that's actually a pretty good turnaround time on getting just the cards...though it certainly took a while to get the check.

It's actually only supposed to take 3 business days to get a check...maybe that was a special instance

[SuperSonic128]

Yes, I did them all on the same account. And the cards are back up? Better start playing again!

[crosseyedpilot]

Dangit, I know what they are doing
They are trying to get those who already have enough for the XBox to waste those points on everything else, and then when they finally do put the XBox back up, we'll have to play like mad to get the points back
Job security I guess...

[Bioshocked360]

Just get giftcards and buy a 360. The 32,000 points you would spend on a 360 would get you $480 in cash.

That's exactly why I have an account tucked away with 35,000+ tickets just waiting for the 360 to return. I ordered the 7 gift cards on my sons account, 7*15=$105. That could come in handy, and it only cost me 6,965 tickets...

[winterice]

I hoped these magazine gift card works. I just used 4975 tickets to get 5 of them; leaving only 902 tickets left on my account.

[SuperSonic128]

I just realized that I forgot the picture. (Sorry for the bad quality.)

STOP USING YOUR POINTS FOR THESE CARDS.

THEY CHANGED THE PRIZE AND ARE NOW GIVING GIFT CARDS INSTEAD OF CASH CARDS. (Which can NOT be redeemed for cash)



Sorry for the big bold text, but it is rather important so more people don't waste their points.

Thank goodness I only bought one. How much does EGM cost? I've been trying to get the free year for ever.

I still ordered 20, If it can't be used for cash oh well, I'll order some mags, then ebay some, or sell em to people at school

:O rly? They were always labeled as Gift Cards on LSC though.

[x1xMuffinManx1x]

I haven't got any of the miles that I have redeemed under this new company...I have sent them 2 e-mails so far with no response. I am very weary of redeeming my miles for anymore frequent flier miles as they don't seem to be very good at following through. Have you received any deposits lately?

I ordered miles yesterday, so I'll see if I have any better luck.

And I ordered an IntelliMouse on June 25th and received it today. Still waiting for the shipping confirmation. :lol:

[mrcheapo11]

:O rly? They were always labeled as Gift Cards on LSC though.

That's what I was thinking... even though I would trust SuperSonic, based upon the fact that he has gotten $285 from them, does he have proof? Unless he ordered them/or knows someone who ordered them when they were up for like 15 minutes a few days ago, and has received them since... I don't see how he could know...

[beeboo]

Hehe, i have a few accounts and managed to order a ton. I hope what sonic said isn't true.
The last time I ordered these they were also called gift cards from the confirmation email at the end of May.
I gave up trying to play to get the 360 or any higher items. These gift cards are perfect for cashing in all those unwanted points.

BTW, how long have they been up for?

[SuperSonic128]

I talked to them on the phone a while back. (When I thought my check would come in within two weeks.) The first thing the guy told me on the phone was that there were diffrent kinds of cards. One redeemable for cash and for magazines, and one that can only be used for magazine subscriptions. If you had ordered a gift card before, the conformation would say magazines.com giftcard. When you order it now, it says $15/$25 magazine subscription.

There is a high chance CL read up on it and ordered the the ones that can't be redeemed for cash because it would make the cards worth more then anything on the site and people would just go out and buy the item.

[MasterYensid]

Actually, I spoke to soon. I checked right after I posted my message and I found three credits to my account. I guess they did follow through. It took a lot longer than it should have, but I did get my credits.

I suppose there is a decent chance of that, but I don't know...I either hope that these are the cash cards, and if they're not, I hope that the 50 cards I ordered don't go through...yikes

[Arget]

awww crap, i hope they are cash value. I ordered 7 -_-

[PR Mega X]

Well, placed my order for Rock Band on Saturday :D Here's hoping they ship it soon!

[@ndrew]

got my xbox today :bouncy:

pics? Just wanna see 4 kicks

[winterice]

Well...damn. Anyone know if you can combine all the magazine gift card into one sum on their website? Like how amazon does it if you have more than one gift. I've figured if the cash back doesn't work, I'm getting the 56 issues of Sports Illustrated for 40 bucks.

[CoinCollector]

I sent them an e-mail asking about the February Xbox's, and here's their response:

Thank you for contacting Live Search Club Support. Currently we are out of stock and are working to get more stock of backordered prizes. We are trying to get these prizes out to you and other participants as soon as possible. Please note, at this time we do not have an estimated shipping date.I'm disappointed they're out of stock, but it's a different response than normal. It sounds like they'll get some out soon, and that they're aware that we're waiting. They'll come eventually!

[paragon11]

Congrats to those that got their X360 when they put them back up a few weeks ago. I still haven't seen a shipping confirmation. Perhaps I'll get it without getting a confirmation? I don't know.

Except for the fact that they sent out a bunch of Xboxes last week, and didn't do anything with the February orders...

[philanballa2]

Well I'm happy for those who received their Xboxes ... has anyone received a confirmation for those who ordered on the 28th?

[GoddessTio]

Well, placed my order for Rock Band on Saturday :D Here's hoping they ship it soon!

Hmmm, I ordered RB on 6/30 and haven't gotten it yet, or even a shipping confirmation... if you get one let me know

[IRISH4]

Just got an email that my FLIGHT SIMULATOR X has shipped.
Ordered it on 4/5 .......
shipped on 5/20 .....
received on 5/22.....
Getting your shipping order / tracking number on 7/9 ....
PRICELESS!!!!! :lol::roll:

Now if someone like me who ordered the xbox on the 27th gets one I'd be more hopefull of actually getting mine.
Did anyone who ordered on the 26th not get their xbox?

[poopoop]

HEY A NONE LSC QUESTION HERE....

If an item arrives in my city tonight and it shows on the tracking thing will i get it tomorrow?

I ordered Rock Band on June 20th and just got the shipping-confirmation e-mail four-and-a-half hours ago. It was given a departure scan in LOUISVILLE, KY late last night, according to UPS, and is scheduled for delivery... today (7/9). If you can't tell, I'm fairly excited. You'll probably get yours soon, too, GTo -- just hang in there.

Yay! That makes me so excited. Mine can't be too far behind then. Gahhh, I can't wait! :bouncy:

[lVlasterchief]

I think LSC is trying to lure people into buying their "New" prizes even though they're not new at all. Possibly a tactic they're using to getting rid of some surplus items.

[poopoop]

i was just wondering...is anyone who uses this site on here,the same as me and just orders prizes that are expensive too put on ebay and make money off of them??just wondering..

[2574]

Rockband that I ordered on 6/25 shipped on 7/8 and should arrive on 7/10 according to the tracking info I just received. Still no word on the two Xbox orders I made that same day.

[steelsmack]

i was just wondering...is anyone who uses this site on here,the same as me and just orders prizes that are expensive too put on ebay and make money off of them??just wondering..
I did that with office 2007, sold it for $230 on a buy it now. I actually want the 360, but figured I could sell office 07 twice and get it. Instead, I suped up one of my computer systems at home and made it gameable on the (near) latest stuff, instead of worthless on the newer games. Items with the best returns were the controllers (when they were 2500 tickets), they'd sell for $30+ on ebay, and Flight Sim X (which I ordered 3 of to sell on eBay) which goes for ~$30. 2500 tickets equalling $30 is a better than 1 cent a ticket return, larger items won't give you that, but you do avoid more fees doing it all in one big chunk, so it probably comes out about a draw...

[quadomatic]

If you want cash then get the magazines.com gift cards.

[steelsmack]

If it's UPS, maybe, if it's FedEx probably. Shippers usually don't "have" to deliver stuff until the estimated delivery date, but often FedEx delivers it a day early, though I have heard it is totally up to the driver. I have seen stuff show up a day early with UPS as well, but I've also seen it sitting in the next town over for a day rather than getting it to me on time.
If you want cash then get the magazines.com gift cards.
If they are still working, that is definitely the way to go, and thus why I ordered 7 of them yesterday...

Depends on the item. Smaller items go USPS, larger go UPS.

[Dual45s]

Ordered it on the 25th

[Frog Ribs]

I just sent the following to LSC...

Thank you for the reply. [which basically said "the Xbox 360 is out of stock and we have no idea when more will be available. :roll:]

However, if Xbox 360s that were ordered in the last two weeks have been shipped, then what about the unfulfilled orders from February? Obviously, the Xbox 360 was in stock recently, since people have received them within two weeks of ordering, as opposed to waiting for nearly 5 months as I have been doing.

I understood when I placed the order that it might actually take close to the full 12 weeks to receive the Xbox 360, but at this point (approaching 21 weeks), with more recent orders being fulfilled before mine, I'm seriously starting to question if I will ever receive the Xbox 360 I ordered in February (confirmation # *********).

Thank you,

Mark

[lVlasterchief]

Dual45s, you're so lucky. I ordered on the 25th as well, but I haven't receive a shipping notice or my package.

Ordered it about an hour and a half after it was put back up, still no confirmation email and no xbox. I used an account which still had some tickets from last July however so that might be the problem.

Just curious, has anyone that ordered an xbox on 6/26-6/27 received a confirmation email since the start of the week? I haven't seen any mention of such.

[lVlasterchief]

I ordered that same day it was back in stock. Not sure as to what time... and the tickets I had on my account have been inactive for a while. I haven't done much games up until just recently. All the ones I used on my xbox were like a couple months old. Maybe they're going deep on background checks?

[Dual45s]

Dual45s, you're so lucky. I ordered on the 25th as well, but I haven't receive a shipping notice or my package.

[orbit18]

got my wireless xbox 360 controller and ireland tshirt today! :)

[crosseyedpilot]

I love how they keep the "New" tag on things that obviously arent new anymore, just so it "looks" like they have been updating with new prizes

how about threateniing class action law suits, that will get their attention

I highly doubt that. Their terms and conditions are written fairly well to explain how tickets and prize orders are handled.

[GoddessTio]

how to earn prizes? how much points to get a console?

Try checking out the site? :roll:

[ohram]

so far 78 points.. how to make more points in each game? i made 20 or less points in each game :(
where can i find xbox 360 in the prize section?

360 has been taken off because they're out of stock. The max amount of points you can get is 20 from certain games, and 25 from flexicon. Go to http://www.anagrammer.com/ for the solutions to most of the puzzles. Also you can only amass 1,000 points a day. Thank you good day sir.

[Bioshocked360]

The 360's are 32,000 points and are out of stock. finish the game and you get 20 points. Also, you are one of the most incompitant people I have ever seen.

I guess I should be going for the magazines.com cards and getting cash now, right?

[@ndrew]

its up to you if you want to order the magazines because of the confusion of whether or not the cards sent out this time will be redeemable for cash. Worst case scenario you just order some nice magazines :bouncy:

[N3UROP0D]

[jtokchain5]

ok my webcam and pens arent here yet, wut should i do guys?

[N3UROP0D]

Wow that's really getting shafted. How long ago did u order the other 7 items.

Most were in July last year, but I ordered a couple of things about a month ago too. Didn't use bots or anything. I don't get how the company running this can be so incompetent and still be paid for it. I think if Microsoft gave me the prizes and shipping materials I could do a better job myself.

[Dual45s]

that hasn't worked for me. they actually told me an item was out of stock, yet the item was available for redemption on their website at the time.

That's some bullshit right there. I'd suggest bringing that up to them. "Just a heads up, but the whatever is still up on the redemption page and I didn't want you guys to get a huge backlog for that prize."


On another note, when the fuck are they going to put up more Flexicons, I'm going crazy on these damn grinding games (chicktionary, spelling bee, slugger).

I emailed LSC about my Xbox orders yesterday and received this today.

Thank you for contacting Live Search Club Support. Currently we are out of stock and are working to get more stock of backordered prizes. At this time we do not have an estimated restock date, so the prize order has been cancelled and your tickets have been refunded to your account.

My account isn't showing any ticket refunds.

LSC Ticket Refund Day coming soon LOL

I emailed LSC about my Xbox orders yesterday and received this today.


That's good they're saying that they're out of stock to the newer orders and not just the February orders. I'm not saying it's good that you haven't received your Xbox, this just means that they really ARE out of stock.

[udonknowjack]

I got my Zune headphones today which i ordered on 6/22. i haven received a shipping confirmation for my mouse and the cookbook ordered on 6/22. i ordered using my own name for those 2 but not for the zune headphones. why i did that, i have no idea...

[philanballa2]

Well that's sad so far I've read that those who ordered on the 25th and 26th got the Xbox 360 that they ordered anyone who ordered from the 27th or 28th got a shipping confirmation? The Xboxes went out of stock quickly :(

[VioletArrows]

Does anyone else have constant problems with glitchy and slow games? The last several times I tried to get through any game, I could never finish because either it would freeze, clicking on something in the game would load another page and erase my progress, or it purposely acts like a bitch in Firefox (playing IE produces the other two problems). I've been stuck at 500 points for months because of it.

[demonchin]

[hec204]

My VX-6000 webcam arrived today, and I ordered rock band last night, waiting on shipping confirmation.

[Maniacmous]

I ordered Rock Band on the 2nd, still waiting on Shipping Confirmation - anyone else that ordered that around the same time frame and gets SC, letting us know here would be awesome.

[Xfactor19990]

[Meiji]

20,000 for the Zune, unless they add the upgraded one with the next restock.

[Gladler]

I ordered my first prize!!!! Airline miles. I don't even know how airline miles work. I had to sign up at the airline just to get the number to claim the prize. It hasn't showed up on my new airline account yet, though. I won't believe it until I really see it. Why would people give away stuff just for playing games??????

[Meiji]

It's a very effective way to get hits on their search engine. They get a greater share of the market, they profit from ad companies advertising on said search engine, they pass on a small portion of the profit to us. It's kind of genius really, as rarely do companies reward consumers for essentially buying nothing.

Can't be too picky with free stuff.
lol but that makes me sad lol i want a 80gb :( well ill sell to friend, or ill get something else (but was my friend right? the old interface sucks?) One other thing do they ever have amazon gift cards etc? Marketplace points?

[winterice]

I'm surprise we haven't heard of anyone receiving their Zune. I believed it was pulled off at the same time as the Xbox360.

[Xfactor19990]

ya i wanna know about people getting zunes! lol

[poopoop]

yea whos recieved a zune from the last time it was put up then took down?
thanx

[wolverine2281]

anybody have any info on the Magazine Subscriptions? What do you actually get? Does it take 6-8 weeks to get whatever you need to order the subscription and then the 8-12 weeks for the first issue to arrive? Thanks

You can expect to wait at least 2+ weeks to get whatever you ordered from LSC, and then once you place an order for a magazine it should be the standard "6 to 8 weeks" for first delivery. Just going off of past experiences.

[chimpian]

just got the keyobard/mouse combo i ordered about 2 wks ago.

and if anyone is curious it works well with the ps3 :)

[steelsmack]

I ordered a Zune on 6/25 and haven't heard a thing yet. Of course my last Zune showed up without shipping confirmation so I fully expect this one to just magically appear in the next few days.

[8BitBrad]

Can you still exchange the magazine cards for cash?

[steelsmack]

Can you still exchange the magazine cards for cash?
No one will know the answer to that until this batch gets shipped out and someone attempts it. According to some (SuperSonic128 here (http://www.cheapassgamer.com/forums/showpost.php?p=4585386&postcount=6271)) they cannot, but I have yet to see any evidence that what he says is true. And in fact 53 minutes earlier SuperSonic128 posted this (http://www.cheapassgamer.com/forums/showpost.php?p=4585138&postcount=6265) stating that he should start playing again since the magazine gift cards are back. I find it hard to believe that in 53 minutes he magically found out that they don't work, and I'm convinced it's a scare tactic to keep people off of "his" gift cards till he can earn a bunch of tickets and cash in.

[Dual45s]

I ordered a magazine subscription in march, emailed them twice and got two "We are out of this prize" emails back. Like you could ever be out of a MAGAZINE SUBSCRIPTION.

"No no, our subscription sheet is full and we haven't printed another blank one off, you're just going to have to wait."

[kvadair]

lol but that makes me sad lol i want a 80gb :( well ill sell to friend, or ill get something else (but was my friend right? the old interface sucks?) One other thing do they ever have amazon gift cards etc? Marketplace points?

You're friend was right, but most of the updates made to the 80GB interface are now available in the 30GB model via firmware update. Personally I like the current interface of the 30GB model.

[Xfactor19990]

You're friend was right, but most of the updates made to the 80GB interface are now available in the 30GB model via firmware update. Personally I like the current interface of the 30GB model.
so whats the difference then betwween 80 and 30 besidesthe size? And also how would you exchange magazines for cash?

[VioletArrows]

Don't know why but it seems to work fine in Firefox now (likely because Flash isn't outdated anymore). I got 400 points in 3 hours last night, mostly playing Picture This!

I think I can get the zune earplugs by the end of the weekend, but I can't find anything on what the quality is. The only thing I can find on the Zune boards is that they're made of metal and shock the wearer and the Zune until they break. O.o

[kvadair]

so whats the difference then between 80 and 30 besides the size?

The 30GB model has a four way rocker with a button in the middle along with a button on either side (back, play) to control the interface. I don't remember exactly how the new ones work, but I know the rocker/button has been replaced by a touch sensitive button that is similar in function to the iPod's dial. This is the model you will find in stores if you want to try out the new interface, or on amazon if you want to read about it.

[Frog Ribs]

What I wrote to LSC a couple of days ago.
However, if Xbox 360s that were ordered in the last two weeks have been shipped, then what about the unfulfilled orders from February? Obviously, the Xbox 360 was in stock recently, since people have received them within two weeks of ordering, as opposed to waiting for nearly 5 months as I have been doing.

I understood when I placed the order that it might actually take close to the full 12 weeks to receive the Xbox 360, but at this point (approaching 21 weeks), with more recent orders being fulfilled before mine, I'm seriously starting to question if I will ever receive the Xbox 360 I ordered in February (confirmation # *********).

Here's the response I received last night. It's about what I expected. :roll:
Greetings Live Search Club Participant,

Thank you for contacting Live Search Club. This prize is out of stock and has been temporarily removed. At this time, we have no estimated date of return. Please check back in the future to see if it has been restocked and is once again available in the list of prizes.

Best regards,
Live Search Club Support


It kinda ignores everything I said, except "Xbox 360." :bomb:

Good reasoning. I think I'll start playing again. If anything, at least I'll get some free magazines out of it. ;)

[Shafted]

Don't waste your time redeeming for magazine cards. Most likely its out of stock already.

If you didnt redeem on the 1st day it came back, you won't be getting it & your tickets will be refunded.

They are horrbile when it comes to syncronizing their inventory with orders placed.

[grndoom]

Don't know why but it seems to work fine in Firefox now (likely because Flash isn't outdated anymore). I got 400 points in 3 hours last night, mostly playing Picture This!

I think you can get points way faster playing some other games, but if you like playing Picture This, thats cool. Its just that its possible for you to earn the same amount of points you mentioned above in much less time.

[Dmitriy]

I ordered a Zune on 6/25 and haven't heard a thing yet. Of course my last Zune showed up without shipping confirmation so I fully expect this one to just magically appear in the next few days.

Lets hope so, LSC seems to be putting more focus on the XBox than the Zune now.

[Shafted]

This time around on the przie list it says "$15 Magazine Subscription"

and not "$15 Magazine Gift Card" like last time.

[VioletArrows]

I know, but for a while it was amusing. Some of the pictures they want you to match up are plain awful and make for a good psychology test ("why DID you choose the picture of the nude woman painted like a keyboard as opposed to the full body leopard tattoo?"). It's just that the Chicktionary and Flexicon ones are boring.

[Shafted]

"No no, our subscription sheet is full and we haven't printed another blank one off, you're just going to have to wait."


Same here, however they emailed me in june stating they would ship out in 2-3 weeks and they never shipped it.

The mouse is the Intellimouse Explorer. Really nice.

[CO_mommy]

ok my webcam and pens arent here yet, wut should i do guys?

I'm still waiting on pens I ordered on 5/23 and 5/25. They're doing great with some items and poorly with others. I ordered a mixer on 6/26 and got it yesterday, along with a shirt I ordered on 6/23. No shipping emails on either.

[CO_mommy]

Incentive Logic making a come back?

With all the form letters that don't answer any questions, you'd almost think they're back in business.

[CO_mommy]

I was saddened to see the coffeemaker gone. I was looking into buying a new coffeemaker and wanted to get this one to match the mixer. I've been sick for the past week and didn't play. I hope they bring it or something comparable back. They don't have much worth playing for right now.

[ohram]

Magazines are gone again.

Magazines are gone again.


As I predicted

[wolverine2281]

huh, didn't even notice. Maybe that's why it was down last night. Does anybody know if LCS cares if, say, my wife has an account and we share the same address or use the same IP address or it's OK to send more than one prize to the same location as long as it's under the limit?

This is all I found in the FAQ
"Each household address is limited to redeeming tickets for up to three of the same software items and three of the same hardware items."
edit: I just found this in the Terms and Conditions:
You may not use more than one Windows Live™ ID to avoid restrictions or other limitations on Activities, tickets, prizes or the Program. Microsoft reserves the right to withhold tickets and prizes from any user suspected of activities that violate the Terms or are otherwise unlawful.
So, still, do they track IPs or can I send the prize to mom and dad's house?

I've (recently) ordered things on different account I had from back in the day (which was a Wednesday if you didn't know) and received them

Me, my husband, and my son play from the same IP address and have our prizes shipped to the same address. We did not create different accounts to avoid restrictions. We just all like playing different games and want different prizes. If you and your wife have different accounts to the same address, that's fine. You are still limited to 3 software and hardware items per address. We've gotten all our prizes.

[Kitchens]

I'm pretty sure what that means is that you can't have more than one account in order to get around the limit of prizes you can get. But why would you and your wife have different accounts?

[wolverine2281]

She has a hotmail account and so do I. She can play at work and I can play at work too.

[DarkKenpachi]

i sent them an email like 2 weeks ago and got the same response. I think they are just trying to get us off their backs.

Yeah I got that response also for my games as well. Though I will say that I got that email about 2 months before I got my xbox so who knows where this will lead. but I do have hope

Shirts, purses, gift cards, song downloads & air miles are unlimited

[wolverine2281]

yeah, that's true but what if we both had enough points for a Zune or whatever "hardware" assuming we each wanted our own. There's a limit of 3 per household. I was just wondering if there would be a problem or if would fall under the category of
"You may not use more than one Windows Live™ ID to avoid restrictions or other limitations on...tickets..."

Thanx for everyone's input, BTW

My wife, my son and myself all have accounts to our house, and I haven't had any problems (at least post incentive logic) so far. That clause is just in there to keep people from abusing the system getting around ticket limits. You should have no problems ordering stuff to the same location, playing from the same IP, etc.

Nope, I already got mine :)

[VioletArrows]

To those of you not going for high ticket/popular items, how long did it take to get your stuff? I went over, got myself a tote bag, and donated the rest to breast cancer research for my mom. She will probably also take my bag since it is pink and I sent it to her house. Next is the metal earplugs, if I don't get bored with this again.

[chrisflyer]

I just got enough to order Rock Band. For people who have recently ordered RB, what's the average wait time until it ships? Last time I did LSC was about a year ago, I got a 360 controller, and it didn't ship for about 3 or 4 months.

[2574]

Rockband took about 13 days to ship after I ordered it. It's sitting beside me gathering dust until I get a 360.

[Maniacmous]

I ordered Rock Band on the 2nd, haven't seen hide nor hair of it (or a shipping confirmation) yet.

[GoddessTio]

I ordered RB on the 30th, and have received no confirmation or package yet.

Yeah, I would absolutely go for one except I do alot of cooking and that was one of the first things to go on the wedding gift list, so I've already got one. Absolutely agree on the food processor though, I make a badass pesto when I've got the right toys.

The ironic part is that I ordered 2 cookbooks the day before I ordered my 360 & controller, which I received Wed and haven't even gotten a shipping confirmation on the books yet.

[wolverine2281]

I got a question. I was just going back reading the old posts and regarding the people who get 2000 (or 2048) points in one "day". is that only possible when you don't play the day before or am I misunderstanding when your day resets? i.e. I play on 7/12 from 7pm until about 3am and max out my 1024 points. My LSC "day" starts at 6pm. Is that the earliest I can begin earning points again? I understand how it would be possible if I started around 4pm and got 1000 points and then played around 7pm and got another 1k but it seems to me that would only work if I didn't play the day before. Is that correct?

Correct, but to phrase it better, it's not that you wouldn't play the day before, you could play the day before in the morning, but once it resets, you can't play it. Okay so a phrased that terribly, but yeah, you can't play the day before after 6pm (in your case).

[conchopearl]

Once you have made 1000 in a 24 hour period you are done till it resets and you have to start over at 6 P.M.

[inubu]

I ordered Rock Band on the 2nd, haven't seen hide nor hair of it (or a shipping confirmation) yet.

I'm in the exact same boat as you. Ordered on the 2nd -- still haven't heard anything beyond the first confirmation email.

[2574]

I expect you guys will get shipping confirmations for Rockband within the next few days.

[e3revolution]

Sometimes you don't get confirmation. I got my mouse without it. Chill out, Rockband has been there forever.

[Maniacmous]

Sometimes you don't get confirmation. I got my mouse without it. Chill out, Rockband has been there forever.

Yeah, I received my 360 controller (long long ago, when they were still 2500pts) without so much as a confirmation number via e-mail, let alone shipping confirmation - it just showed up one day. I just read either here or perhaps at SD about people having to sign for their copy of Rock Band, so I'd really like to be around for that, you know? Not really worried about when it ships so much as having someone here at the house to get it.

Is there anyway to speed up the Flexicon process? I watched the video on the Anagramssolved.com site where he replaced the frame with the solutions...but I cannot figure out how he did so.

It would speed me up alot to know how to combine the answers into the same frame as the game. Thanks in advance guys!

[DualDisorder]

Just encountered my first bugged puzzle. After 21,300 tickets in Word Slugger I got one that was showing I still needed 4 words even though I got them all. Then the game froze. Strange.

[VioletArrows]

Yeah, there's a puzzle in Flexicon like that. You're supposed to spell out Panda, but the check button is blocked by an extra square and there's no way to remove it. It pissed me off because I did that one without help.

Besides the mixer, all my recent prizes have been small items. I ordered pen packs for my kids and a tote bag for myself on May 23 and May 25 that I'm still waiting for. I ordered 2 shirts and a journal that took less than 2 weeks to arrive.

[CO_mommy]

I had a similar problem with Chicktionary and everytime I tried to play it, the exact same game would come up with the same problem. I finally solved it. I clicked on whatever button it is there that ends the game, accepted the lesser amount of tickets than one would get for a fully "finished" game, and was able to move on!:bouncy: I hope this helps you. First I clicked the "give up" button. Not sure if that is necessary though.

[2574]

I have a problem where the pop up box informing me that I'm out of hints for the Word Slugger doesn't appear and instead freezes the whole game. I have to be careful not to click for hints to many times lest I run out and have to restart.

Huh. They spelled Axl Rose's name "Axel" on one of the Flexicon clues. Kind of disappointing, actually.

How do you guys get 1000 points per day? The most I can stand to do before my brain melts is around 200.

It takes around 1 hour - 1hr30mins to get 1000 points.
Chicktionary,wordslugger, or spelling bee is the way to go.

Yeah, I can knock out 1000 pts in 90 min-2 hours if I'm really going slow, normally around 90 min. though, since I usually play while at work, and have things interrupting me a lot.

[Kitchens]

And this is without using solutions?

[VioletArrows]

Some of those clues for Flexicon are downright ridiculous and useless.

[hec204]

Ordered a keyboard, hope it ships quickly

[Kitchens]

Yeah, and for some reason anything after a comma doesn't show up on the actual search.

[xDarkElement]

Omfg The Zunes Back! Finally I Just Ordered One!!!!!!!!!

[GoddessTio]

Huh, they got a bunch of good prizes back up. Neato.

[Mad Scientist]

They added a new ergonomic wireless keyboard/ mouse set, too: the "Natural Wireless Ergonomic Desktop 7000."

There's good review here: http://www.extremetech.com/article2/0,1697,2155134,00.asp

I'm tempted, but I'd have too few points left for a 360 (if they ever restock).

[winterice]

Zune is up again. Has anyone received one from the last time it was up? If they got stocks of it, shouldn't we be receiving it now?

[innocentangel81]

I ordered one when it was last up still waiting, I hope it get sent out soon. when I ordered rock band I got it in 3 weeks.

[wolverine2281]

woo hoo! ordered my Zune! Hopefully I get it. Also added Office to the prize list.

[poopoop]

me too ordered on the 26th then the 28th again..
hope to be seeing it :(

[Dmitriy]

I ordered the Zune on the 25th and have received no word of it, I don't see how they can put it up again without fulfilling the last orders.

[steelsmack]

I ordered the Zune on the 25th and have received no word of it, I don't see how they can put it up again without fulfilling the last orders.
I ordered on the 25th as well, I am guessing they are either shipped, shipping or very, VERY close to shipping those Zunes out. The last Zune I got came without shipping confirmation, so I would be surprised if this one shipped with confirmation.

[wolverine2281]

I think it should be OK for them to process new orders while others who did order theirs wait the "6-8 weeks" (or 3 or 4 months) for delivery. Honestly I don't care if it takes that long to get it (as long as I DO get it) cuz, hey, it's free

[mrwonton91]

they just added a camera for 40k tickets

[wolverine2281]

wow, is that the one Maria Sharipova uses? :) I don't know if it's worth 40k though, a little more than the xbox.

[Dual45s]

It IS a good camera, but doesn't follow the dollar:ticket scheme at all. Should be under /around 30k. Curious.

[e3revolution]

Wireless keyboard looks nice.

[Viper45]

All these 20,000+ ticket prizes are great and all, but I really wish they would put up some more 360 games (newer ones). Somewhere in the 5,000 - 7,000 range.

[xDarkElement]

going for the camera now!
after order zune headphones and a new mouse

[Kitchens]

All these 20,000+ ticket prizes are great and all, but I really wish they would put up some more 360 games (newer ones). Somewhere in the 5,000 - 7,000 range.

Yeah, I was hoping the same thing. I wonder why they don't. Maybe they get payed to feature certain products from other companys, so they don't put very many of their own prizes up.

[udonknowjack]

im definitely getting the camera but i haven been playing in over 3 weeks....

i wonder if i will ever get those 3 $15 magazine subscriptions soon

[CYRiX]

All these 20,000+ ticket prizes are great and all, but I really wish they would put up some more 360 games (newer ones). Somewhere in the 5,000 - 7,000 range.
Agreed.

[shortaznkid99]

I really want that camera. Fat Zune doesn't excite me anymore.

[hec204]

Agreed.
It would also be awesome if they added microsoft points or xbox live cards, but people would really abuse it, but then again it's free money for them...

[Frog Ribs]

So I sent yet another e-mail to LSC support...where I tried to make clear that I am not asking WHEN the Xbox 360 will be available again, but if they plan on fulfilling older orders before new ones.

I expect the same answer as before. :wall:

Also, for the hell of it, I sent an e-mail to livesearchclub@incentivelogic.com. :lol:

[erehwon]

Right now I'm working up for a xbox once they put those back up. I also plan on getting some of those magazine gift cards. There's a few magazines I want, but haven't felt like paying for. The Zune doesn't interest me since I prefer smaller mp3 players for taking walks and exercising.

[grandgrego]

I just ordered mine today. I'll let everyone know if/when i receive it and color.

Sorry to hear about all those people waiting for their previous zune orders. hope we all get ours soon :D

p.s. I'm hoping for pink because it's hot on e-bay

[xDarkElement]

people have been reporting its gonna be black or white i think.
if i get brown or red im gonna get mad lol

[wutaday09]

who does live search club again?

Lol spying on aratousa. We know where they live. :shock:

[devilsfan098]

Zunes are gone again.

[VioletArrows]

Jeez, it wasn't even one day...

[xDarkElement]

haha yes! i ordered one just in time

[da510]

Just ordered Rock Band. I'll let you guys know if I ever get it!

[GoddessTio]

Just ordered Rock Band. I'll let you guys know if I ever get it!

If you get yours before mine I'm going to be mad.

[Maniacmous]

Amen to that Goddess, hahaha.

[mrwonton91]

If you get yours before mine I'm going to be mad.
lol same here, i ordered mine the 29th

[wutaday09]

i tried playing games, it says "error" why is that? so i didn't get my 20 points :(
your not doing it legitimately are you

and thanks 2574

[GoddessTio]

lol same here, i ordered mine the 29th

I ordered on the 30th. Probably with the influx of Xbox orders they're just behind, but I still want my damn game. I've been playing for ages to get that.

[pabr92]

so you know how you guys said, "If you email them, they consider you a cheater" does that mean i wont get any prize i order?!
is there a chance they wont consider you a cheater?
and i didn't use bots or macros

[x1xMuffinManx1x]

I've emailed them before and had no problem receiving items. :/

[grandgrego]

if i get brown or red im gonna get mad lol

Actually, red seems to sell pretty well on Ebay with the buzzword "rare" or limited. Same goes for pink.

If you don't like the color ebay it and try to get a color you like or another mp3 player.

[pabr92]

I've emailed them before and had no problem receiving items. :/
i hope ur right, i order a bunch of stuff like shirts, bags, downloads

[pabr92]

what did you e-mail them about? are you talking about feedback stuff (game play, live search, etc.) or order info.?

[pabr92]

i guess both, but mostly about order info (with confirmation#)until i found out all replies where like
"Take 12 weeks...blah...may take 3 months of shipping.... best regards" i think a computer searches for key words and puts an automatic answer :-?

[Viper45]

Yeah, I was hoping the same thing. I wonder why they don't. Maybe they get payed to feature certain products from other companys, so they don't put very many of their own prizes up.

Hmm. There may be a glimmer of hope left; PGR 3 has been removed from the prize list. Maybe that means they finally cleared out the stock for that game and will be replacing it with a new one...

Also of note that's gone now are the Zune Earphones. Not sure if anything else was taken off.

[chimpian]

damn i just ordered them(headphones) and the backpack yesterday....
i hope they come still

[VioletArrows]

Damn! I was working on the earphones!

[xDarkElement]

noo the headphones are gone :(

[bow zon0]

i ordered the headphones on the 3rd of July..... nothing yet oh well ill forget about it and it will come after i already got some more apple ones

[falcon815]

Ugh, the headphones were the only reason I'd been playing lately. Guess I should have worked a little harder... I just hit 2000 pts today.
