Received my Vista yesterday, with no shipping email. Vista was redeemed on 7/4.

Just received another shipping email for my final controller, redeemed on 7/5. Very surprised they followed through on all prizes. T'was some nice freebies while it lasted.

Where do you live? Close to Arizona?

I hope my Vista was shipped already...

[RockyRan]

Dag nabbit! Nothing for me still. Ugh, I just know I won't get jack squat and I'll be pissed off to no end...GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!

Does anybody have a stress ball?

[Scrubsy]

Just got my thumbdrive. Seems kind of pointless to get a 256 stick when I have a gig already.

[NateNinja]

today, my mailbox was stuffed with about 5 packages. Turned out they were the t-shirts i ordered.

[xenopii]

Got TravelDrive #2, today. Ordered June 30th.

[grendel19]

I hope my Vista was shipped already...I'm in the Chicago 'burbs.

[erehwon]

I got about 800 points since I haven't spent too much time on the site. Do you guys think I should continue or just cash out my points?

[chaobro]

yup, got my shipping confirmation for my 360 controller yesterday night, said it shipped out on the 14th of august. Should get here today or tomorrow. Hopefully today so i can get my Gears on. Anywho, I ordered it on July 4th.

[kaw]

Got a shipping email yesterday and I got excited.

I saw ZUNE and got really excited.

Then I saw leather case after it, and I wasn't so excited. This was on a "zeroed" account, by the way.

what would really usck is if they just sent you the case and then never sent the Zune, thats what I have been thinking would happen to me, and then I would just have this case.

That'll probably be the case with me (pun intended). Maybe I can trade it to someone lucky enough to get a Zune.

[jennyfur]

T'was some nice freebies while it lasted.
While it lasted? It's still going on. I just ordered an xbox game yesterday.

Free stuff rules. Unfortunately now there's nothing else left that I want to order.

[sventhebruin]

Still nothing.




I know it's been answered a million times, but what shipping method are they using?? UPS?? USPS?? FedEx??

[Access_Denied]

Still nothing.

FedEx.

And, JennyFur, it's over. Nobody's stupid enough to actually play the games to get prizes. (At least I'm not.) And since none of the bots or macros work anymore, (except Live Macro, but it still has issues, and only works 10% of the time), the site will see a drastic loss in traffic.

My Zune case tracking number listed FedEx, but I believe people have stated they received items though USPS as well.

If I actually start recieving stuff, I may start playing again to get some smaller items.

[Foladar]

Same here, I'd be interested in some magazines or movie tix.

[Azentium]

w00t!

The FedEx guy just came by and dropped off a box on my front step. At first I thought it the software I purchased off of Amazon, but then I noticed that the package was from IL. I opened the box and much to my suprise it was Zoo Tycoon 2. :bouncy:

Current status (Zeroed and Legit):
Vista Ultimate - Ordered 7/8 - Status: Unknown
Flight Simulator X - Ordered 7/8 - Status: Unknown
Zoo Tycoon 2 - Ordered 7/8 - Status: Recieved - Shipping e-mail: No - Sent: 9/14

[quadomatic]

I'm in the Chicago 'burbs.

Wow thats discouraging for me, as I'm from the burbs too...and i ordered on the 28th of June

A FedEx truck already came by today. They were delivering my family's new cellphones...but no Vista...

*sigh*

[shinryuu]

Got nothing yet after all this recent outlook. Friend called me and said he got his headset. I only ordered shirts so.. eh. My friend ordered a whole bunch of crap, so hopefully his stuff comes in since he also ordered PGR for me. =]

[hurley7715]

got my controller today

kameo shipping email came last night


my account was not zeroed, i macroed everything

ordered 7/4, and 7/5

[Access_Denied]

grendel19 and quadomatic, what towns do you guys live in? I live in Waukegan and it took like 7 or 8 days to get to me.

[quadomatic]

grendel19 and quadomatic, what towns do you guys live in? I live in Waukegan and it took like 7 or 8 days to get to me.

I'm in Naperville. I still haven't gotten a shipping email. My deadline is August 28th.

[grendel19]

grendel19 and quadomatic, what towns do you guys live in? I live in Waukegan and it took like 7 or 8 days to get to me.I'm over in Oak Brook.

Speaking of the devil, I just got my two t-shirts. My account was not zero'd. My freind's account was.

[uagent]

quadomatic, I too am awaiting Vista (ordered 7/2) w/ the same deadline as yourself, and I'm the guy in Phoenix, AZ. I suppose I could try calling FedEx to see if they have anything routed for me, though I figure I'll just hold off.

[Access_Denied]

I don't think deadlines are the same anymore, because they changed it from 6-8 weeks to 10 - 12 weeks.

[lVlasterchief]

I ordered myself a Xbox 360 controller last night. Ships out 10/11/07 though. Ugh.

[Foladar]

Seeing as your in Phoenix, I wouldn't bother .. they ship from there, so it'd take 1-2 days and by the time you had any idea, it'd probably be there.

[quadomatic]

My deadline is actually August 23rd, so my bad.

I wouldn't bother calling. By the time they know they have something coming for you, it'll probably be at your home by then, since they ship from Phoenix.

So I guess they'll have shipped by now for me, at least hopefully. It would take about a week for it to get to me.

Has anyone's stuff come after their deadlines?

And if they really did change the deadline to 10-12 weeks...that blows...but somehow I doubt it will take that long. I think the longest time it's taken for someone to get a prize, that I've seen so far, has been up to the deadline.

Has anyone here ordered June 21st or before and not gotten their prize yet?

[Mitwang]

People getting orders from second week in July already? Damn, still no sign of late June orders.

[koji126]

Still waiting on mine.

Ordered 2 vistas on July 2 and July 3. Did everything legit. No bots, macros, online help, but my account was zeroed...go figure.

[RESmonkey]

Where is my June 24th Vista?!??!?!

[pitfallharry219]

Where is my June 24th Vista?!??!?!

Same here.

[Access_Denied]

Where's my July 7th Zune?!?! Oh, and my 5 jump drives, 3 controllers, 1 Zune Case, 2 Vistas, 2 Flight Simlators and my other Headset.

[RockyRan]

Same here.

Same here....except replace 24 with 28 and replace "Vista" with "Vista, webcam and 360 controller.

[quadomatic]

Where is my June 24th Vista?!??!?!

My guess is that you'll see it in about 3 days.

[rockinaway247]

My guess is that you'll see it in about 3 days.
i doubt ill ever see any of my prizes

[Access_Denied]

i doubt ill ever see any of my prizes

I didn't think I'd ever seen mine either, but what do you know, the headset I ordered one day, the one I ordered for my cousin the next, and my controller the next.

[salvamag]

i want my xbox controllers

[panasonic]

i got a headest today woop, the sound is really good. It records the voice well and works perfect for ps3 and pc.

[Kayden]

Am I up to 4X *angst*?

[joeposh]

I got Vista Ultimate earlier this week (ordered 06/29) and the wired headset is scheduled to be delivered sometime today (ordered in early june). My account wasn't zeroed.

I still have another account that WAS zeroed under which I ordered a Zune and leather case on 7/11, but I'm not holding my breath on those. Then again, I really didn't expect to see Vista Ultimate after everything that went down, so who knows...

Edit: I am located in South Carolina.

[RESmonkey]

Am I up to 4X *angst*?

Yes...you are, and so am I. :(

[NateNinja]

today's mail of goodies was 2 360 faceplates, and 2 wired headsets. Anybody want to trade a wireless headset for a wired? Let me know because I didn't order any wireless ones because i thought they wouldn't work on 360, and now i bought a PS3 without a headset. Tomorrow, according to fedex.com, i will be getting 2 360 controllers.

[life.exe]

Does anyone know how to check on fedex.com for stuff without a reference/shipping number?

[Foo228]

Does anyone know how to check on fedex.com for stuff without a reference/shipping number?

magic?

but seriously, no ;)

[NateNinja]

you would have to call fedex and ask if there are any packages being shipped to my address. It's quick and painless.

Does anyone know how to check on fedex.com for stuff without a reference/shipping number?

[RESmonkey]

FedEx said I had nothing coming to my door, and yet I have a tracking number.

[NateNinja]

FedEx said I had nothing coming to my door, and yet I have a tracking number.

I never said they were accurate, now did I? ;)

[GBmanNC]

What number do you call for fedex and which options do I chose to navigate there voice system to check if I have any packages coming?

[crittbeast]

Hey guys, just recieved my LX 3000 Headset/mic set and my ZX 6000 wireless headset. Both came in today, I live in Pennsylvania, account was zeroed, and I order July 8, 2007. FedEx btw.

[musha666]

So is everyone receiving their orders from FedEx or USPS?

[crittbeast]

No. Go away.

So is everyone receiving their orders from FedEx or USPS?

Sorry didn't mention that above, I'll edit, it was FedEx btw

[quadomatic]

1800GoFedex

Keep saying more options until they ask you if you want to talk to a representative

BTW: Someone on GameFAQs got this email in a response when asking about a prize:

Dear Live Search Club Participant,

A few players like you have had their score reset. The Live Search Club screens game play against criteria meant to identify likely use of bots, macros, or other automated programs to play the games. Those types of activity violate the terms of use of our service. When a user account has triggered these criteria, the Live Search Club cancels any prize orders and discontinues ticket accruals for the account.

After you placed your order, you should have received a confirmation number, a follow-up confirmation email, and points should have been deducted from your account.

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.

Pretty scary, but somehow false, since people have been getting prizes on zeroed accounts.

[mikebz28]

Im pretty sure this is what you would get if your not getting anything.(at least thats the response i received from them a few days ago)

Just to add to the points of reference, I received my Vista ordered on 6/29 on Wednesday (so, the 15th) of this week in Chicago. I got a shipping notice via e-mail for both this and a 360/PC controller back on the afternoon of 8/10 (so last Friday). The controller arrived last Friday or Saturday, and I ordered it on 6/27. No macros or cheats, and my account was not zeroed. Here's a little photographic evidence I took today:

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v520/dpac/Vista.jpg

Hope that helps someone.

[Foladar]

Both the replies above are form emails, and I would take them with a grain of salt, IMO. I asked them about something completely unrelated (from my account, that just received a headset) and got the email that was posted in the blue above this post.

busted?

[GBmanNC]

I called fedex and they said there werent any ground packages coming my way : ( I ordered vista and headset on june 27 and another vista around july 6

[Sockey]

I got really excited when I saw that I had an email saying my order was shipped. Turns out it was 5 song downloads. : (

[vashknives114]

Just got the LX-3000 Headset today from FedEx. No webcam though, despite it being ordered first.

Anyone from Pennsylvania get their webcam yet?

[RockyRan]

In those e-mails, did they explain how some people botted and still get prizes?

Oh, that's right, because they're not actually tracking down cheaters, or they're just not putting effort into it very well. Regardless, I can guarantee you that some who botted won't get anything, some who were legit won't get anything, and some who both botted and were legit get stuff. It's all gonna be random and if you're picked to be shafted, they're just gonna go "We think you cheated. Evidence? Yeah....uh...we'll get back to you..."

Seriously, this fiasco is starting to really piss me off.

They really arent, I had one legit acc and one botted one. The botted one never got zeroed out, im not expecting anything from it but if I get a zune in a couple weeks im just going to lol at m$

[jennyfur]

And, Jennyfur, it's over. Nobody's stupid enough to actually play the games to get prizes.
In case you haven't been around for this entire thread, many of us already DID play legit to get all our prizes (check back to around when they were zeroing accounts, lots of people who did NOT bot/macro were posting because they got zeroed along with the cheaters). So why would we play any differently now? It's still getting stuff for free regardless. Just because you felt the need to cheat doesn't mean we all do, and calling us stupid for not cheating is downright insulting. If it wasn't for the cheaters, we'd probably have higher ticket caps on games and lower ticket costs for many prizes.

And if you look at the last few pages of this thread, there are still new people joining club live and just starting to play in the last few days.

[Surferflames]

FYI if anyone ordered those bath lotion things, don't expect to use them as a gift for someone. Its basically a little bag with hotel-sized stuff in it. Major dissapointment. Girlfriend got it on her non-zeroed account via usps. Ordered early July I believe.

Yeah and I got my account zeroed out for it. I really dont expect to get anything more. I want the hours (days?) I wasted on that crap back if they dont ship my stuff out.

and for a few days..

[Brenex]

I'm curious to hear if anyone gets or has gotten recently a zune. That's all I'm waiting for now. All I ordered was a zune and vista so be nice MS and send it on over kthx heh. Still don't know if I want to ebay my vista or keep it. How are the prices now?

[Malik112099]

anyone want to trade my ZX-6000 headset for anything?

No talk at all of macros/bots, thanks.

Fedex came strolling around. And here's what I got today: 2 controllers, Fable and Zoo Tycoon. And here's a picture of what i have gotten so far:

2 faceplates, fable, 2 controllers, 2 usb drives, zoo tycoon 2, 2 wired headset (one not pictured) and 5 t-shirts (all of not pictured as they are in the wash)

Account details: I ordered all of the things between July 2nd and July 16th. I had so many accounts I don't really know when i ordered which. I'm located in the suburbs of Chicago. If anybody wants to trade a wireless headset for a wired, PLEASE let me know!

[CMaher]

So on 6/24 I ordered 2 Vistas legit, and on 6/28 did the same thing sending those 2 to my GF's house.

Last Tuesday (8/14) they showed up at my GF's house, nothing to show at my house still as of today.

Moral of the story? Order 4 things legit and get 2 copies in the end.

Best part is, my roommate got his vista, and took it to BB and was able to get instore credit for $428 without a receipt. I've gone to 2 BB's myself and gotten DENIED, given the same story about needing a receipt, and the slugs behind the counter have even told me that I won't be able to return anything around Xmas w/o a receipt if it is valued at over $75.

So apparently I don't have a trustworthy face, and the good news is the kiddies with 10 copies of Vista coming via botting won't be able to buy Plasmas at BB. Bad news is they can still get $200 per on ebay.

Has anyone who ordered the song downloads when they were 0 points gotten anything?

BTW: Someone who ordered 40 Vistas got 1 one of them today.

didn't the scanners go off when your roommate entered the store? and doesn't Vista sell for $399.99 how did he get $428 store credit? I plan to use my Vista(if I receive it) already upgraded the RAM on my desktop and etc.

[quadomatic]

He must've gotten the sales tax back too.

[Foladar]

If you ordered more than one Vista, I wouldn't expect it imo.
*Limit one item per household (based on account holder address) of each hardware and software product.

Meh, I don't really expect it, but we can dream, can't we?

I'm still not sure that one Vista Ultimate will show up. I'll know by Thursday I suppose.

[CMaher]

scanner goes off, that's why there is that tool sitting behind that little desk when you walk in with a sticker gun who puts a $$$gy pink dated sticker on the box to prove you are walking in with the item.

Walmart doesn't stock the item in the store anymore, so you can't return it there either.

399.99 x 1.06 = 428. Like someone said, sales tax.

Where are you located, and was your account zereod?

[RESmonkey]

I'm hoping all of my stuff comes with the XBox 360 Controller that is estimated to arrive today. Like, everything. That would be so awesome.

[CMaher]

both accounts I earned exactly 12,000 points so I zero'd them myself when I ordered the vistas.

In Ohio...see my avatar :) ?

Yea right

I'm so sick of this. I'm just dropping them an e-mail and if they cancel my order I'm going to send a nice rant back. I just don't feel like dealing with this crap anymore.

[heyo007]

I've received my Zoo Tycoon and Arcade Unplugged from Incentive Logic but am still waiting for at least one (ordered 2) of the Vista's that I ordered. I played legit but got the account zeroed.
*Shrugs* At least I can entertain myself with zoo animals a nd geometry wars. Whether is was worth all the carpal tunnel inducing pain depends on my mood of the day.
Today's a good day.

[CMaher]

i'm in Illinois. It'd proly take a day or two longer to come to you.

[CMaher]

doubt it. takes 3 days to get stuff shipped from LA via FedEx when I buy stuff off NewEgg.com

There is a big fedex hub in Indy and one in Tenn. 1/2 days is considerable when we're talking about weeks since we ordered huh? :)

[RESmonkey]

Although FedEx tracking said it was onboard a FedEx Vehicle, my controller came in a "Ryder: Van Rental Vehicle." You think something probably happened to the FedEx truck, and so they had to swap vehicles?

Anyways, got the controller :)
Now to continue playing the waiting game for the rest of the stuff :(

[CMaher]

honestly, when they started clearing legit accounts and macro kids kept getting stuff, I gave up on the whole thing. If I can get 400 out of these 2 copies on ebay, I'll consider myself lucky. In the end my roommate and I will have gotten 4 Tshirts (out of 6 ordered) 3 Vistas (out of 6 ordered) and 1 Controller (out of 1 orderd).

That's pretty funny. I wonder if they happened to be nextdoor and the managers made a deal. I know at my girlfriends restaurant when they run out of things the manager runs next door to get things. Imagine getting takeout boxes that say Dennys from a Tony Romas.

Man, the day I choose to cry and whine on this forum about how I haven't received Vista is the same day taht it arrives.
Ordered: June 24th
Ship date on Box is Aug. 8th
Worked for it legit (no bots/macros) but account was zeroed,
Illinois (Mokena Area).

Kameo came today (took 12 hours to travel a thirty-minute distance, go figure). Was a bit dissapointed that it's the ugly Platinum Hits cover, but it's a good game.

Was glad that it came sealed, tho, because that means Arcade Unplugged will too (don't plan on keeping that).

Unplugged? Not seen since the 16, when it left Arizona about the same time as Kameo.

I got Flight Simulator X, all that's left is Vista. :bouncy:

Nice to see someone in my situation get a prize...I think today was your deadline...or pretty close anyways.

Shipped August 8th huh? I'd guess mine would ship August 12th then, or at least around then.

BTW: I hope you get that Ferrari too :D

[CMaher]

deadline for 6/24 would be 8/20. That's when I ordered my first 2 vistas, which we legit as all get out, but am not counting on getting.

whatever, we all gave up on this stuff about 4 wks ago and said "if we get it we get it" no need to get ourselves all worked up over some people getting stuff and others not. If my doorbell rings tuesday with more stuff from the discount fedex shippers, that's great.

[Foladar]

They extended the deadline to what, 8 to 12 weeks? I doubt many people have hit deadlines yet.

This is to help everyone to grasp the shipping slow and later even though they are closer to Arizona.
http://img518.imageshack.us/img518/7610/shippingxf2.png


So if you look at this picture I will give an explanation. So the arrows are the routes that would be traveled. So for the example we will say a package shipping to Atlanta and a package to Cheyenne. So if you think about this the purple dots are where the hubs are.

So which one get the package first?

Well most likely the person that lives in Atlanta since there is a hub right there that means trucks probably go from Arizona to Atlanta directly. So the package goes through two locations before it gets to the person in Atlanta. So from Phoenix to Atlanta waits possibly overnight then the delivery man comes picks it up.

Now if you look at the Cheyenne way it will probably be longer. Since it goes from Phoenix to Denver then it waits in Denver for a truck going north usually a day or two. Then it has to drive there then waits there in Cheyenne for the Delivery man to come and get it to drop it off.

So hopefully that helped a few people that couldn't figure out the shipping.

P.S. Hopefully borrowing the image from FedEx wasn't illegal since I couldn't find a copyright on or near it on the FedEx site.

So I checked the package again and it said " Delivery Exception" No one was home. It also said it happened at 2:11 Pm. I was definitely home watching tv right in front of my front door. I assume they dont deliver sundays so, heres hoping for a monday delivery. Wish they would just drop off my stuff.

No, it can take up to 12 weeks or never come since they've adjusted the shipment period, and their "rules" pretty much says they can do what they need to do.

same thing happened to me .. they probably didnt even check, they likely just hit you werent home on their little board, I'd call in and complain if they didn't leave a notice on your door, if they left that notice on your door, then they likely did attempt to deliver otherwise the driver was being lazy. when you call, they'll also allow you to pick it up from their offices.

Its supposed to come on tuesday afternoon, and if that driver comes after 3 o clock when im heading to football practice, im gonna punch him in his freakin face. Then run him over with his truck.

All ive got to say, is UPS is much better. Im thinking the driver just wanted to get off work earlier, because where I live is like an hour away from the station he worked at, so Im calling BS on that "no one was at home excuse"

My point is that they advertise the hell out of it (including a flash demo), and it links to your account and can earn you tickets. Not saying it was hard to create, just saying it'd be pointless to do so much with it if they hadn't intended on continuing the promotion. Especially considering some of the features of the toolbar haven't even been implemented yet (like the option to use your tickets towards charity) and are advertised in the demo.

dude you needa relax, your acting overly giddy

[RockyRan]

So when can we assume that they're done with late June orders? Are people still getting them or have they moved on to July now?

[Foladar]

In twelve weeks, perhaps.

actually one of the guys at work got PGR 3 from FedEx. I know because I signed for it.

[CMaher]

He didn't get it on a Monday.
Tuesday–Saturday. Delivery is between 9 a.m. and 8 p.m.

[v1et r1ce]

I thought you only sign for things over $300? When I got my controller, they just left it on the steps.

[xenopii]

just a reminder that today is Monday and no one will be getting any shipments of anything today. DON'T ASK WHERE YOUR STUFF IS!!!!! This only applies to FedEx shipments. Some stuff is shipped via USPS, which does, indeed, deliver on Mondays. With that said, where's my stuff???

Same with my Vista Ultimate, Fed Ex just left it on my door. No signature needed. (this is the Vista I got from the original shipment months ago, nothing recent)

Anyways, WHERES MY STUFF?

[xenopii]

So when can we assume that they're done with late June orders? Are people still getting them or have they moved on to July now? I got the shipping email, yesterday, for a LifeCam ordered on July 6th. Don't know if that means anything regarding other orders, though.

[RESmonkey]

My Zune info says it will have to be signed.

[heatdolphins45]

digital headphones came today via USPS. hope Vista comes soon. nearing the Aug.26 date.

[Scrubsy]

Got all of my legit account stuff. Sold vista for a cool $200 in which I plan to buy a nice digital camera. Hopefully my one Zune comes which I ordered I think the 10th of July.

[quadomatic]

I forgot shipments don't get delivered today...man I hope I see my Vista by the OLD deadline (Yes, I KNOW THEY CHANGED THE DEADLINE, STOP REPEATING IT)

I certainly could use that Vista Ultimate

You ordered Vista an hour after I did...*Cries*

Where's my Vistaaaaaa????????

[quadomatic]

It may have been shipped already. Didn't someone explain why it takes so long for packages to come to some people? You may just end up getting it tomorrow.

Have you already gotten a Vista?

[RESmonkey]

No, just a controller. It would be very nice if there is a Vista coming my way :)

Quadomatic, what have you gotten so far?

[HighlightShow]

Where are you Zune?

[RockyRan]

Well, it's over for me. Ordered on June 24 and 26, and today I called FedEx to find out what packages were coming my way. They said one package was coming in, but that was from something else that wasn't related to Live Search Club prizes (I got it today...I thought they didn't deliver on Mondays).

If they haven't shipped me ANTYHING by now, I'm %100 sure they won't. Oh, and the e-mail I sent them about my prizes hasn't even been responded to. Yeah, this thing is dead to me.

Congrats to all who got theirs and consider yourselves lucky; apparently some of us won't get ever jack squat. Thanks to all for taking the time to reply to all my questions, even though they obviously didn't get me anywhere. See ya, everybody.

[M1C13]

Ok well I guess I'm just crazy because this morning ( MONDAY ) the door bell rang at work I answered it and a guy in a fedex uniform asked me to sign for a package. Inside that package was PGR3 from microsoft and a piece of paper that said live search club, but you know what your right it couldn't have been today because thats just not possible........................ my God.

[Chitown021]

I sent an e-mail about my prize yesterday. I got the canned response asking if I got the confirmation e-mails and if you didn't the order was not placed and the points weren't deducted. I e-mailed them back saying the points were deducted and the prize is still showing ordered on my account. We'll see if I get any response. At this point I'm expecting to be one of the people that just gets the finger from Bill Gates and no prizes...

Has anyone with a zeroed acount tried to go back in and earn pts? I just tried by completing a Flexicon puzzle but got 0 tickets. I did it using Firefox, I haven't tried it in IE.

Who does use IE? Anyway, I haven't been there in a while, but I don't think zeroed accounts can earn points.

[fragilityv2]

Fed-Ex was out and about in my apartment complex today. Nothing for me though :(

[CMaher]

maybe since fedex delivered the package to your place of business, it didn't go via fedex home. most people shipped their stuff to their houses.

[masterofdarkness]

to get your prizes you need to sign the form, shit im not going to be home this week!

[chaobro]

I seriously hate fedex, my prize is finally reshipping today, and it better come before 2 o clock. otherwise ill have to wait again til tomorrow. rinse and repeat until saturday because ill be gone after 2 every day. Seriously, i want to just leave a note to leave my package on the doorsteps or something. Even if they dont deliver hopefully they leave a notice this time, instead of not even coming to my house. Im gonna file a complaint against the driver soon.

Do you have a screen door? Because on more than one occasion, they've left the package between the front door and the screen door. (Hopefully it'll fit.) If not, try to have someone there to pick it up. Maybe a neighbor?

Same thing happened to me, so I called FedEx customer support. They said it was odd not only because they didn't leave the attempted delivery sticky, but also because there was no signature required on the delivery, so he should have just left it anyway. She put a note on the delivery to leave at the door.

My concern at this point is that I never got a confirmation on my Vista order so I won't get a shipping notification. If the same thing happened/were to happen with that, I'd never know. And Vista's the one that counts! :cold:

[opterasis]

Sorry, but I dont want to read through 100+ pages, but i have a question. How long did it take the people that won zunes to get enough points aproximately?

[M1C13]

depends if they cheated, it's kinda like that tootsie pop commercial if you ask the turtle you get one answer if you ask the owl you get another. It took me about 4 days but I cheated.

[Kayden]

were is my prise?

were is my prise?

On a FedEx truck with mine. Because if it's not there, I'm going to have to kill somebody. :bomb:

I cant earn points either. Ive tried fire fox and ie. Im curious if those with zeroed accounts who have received prizes since then are able to earn points on those accounts or not.

How about those who did it legit?

[opterasis]

are all games worth 10 points upon completion? seems like it would take a very long time to get to 20k points

[Access_Denied]

No, Flexicon is worth 25, and Chicktionary and Crosswire are both worth 20.

[opterasis]

ah, okay. clink is just so damn easy lol

[Access_Denied]

ah, okay. clink is just so damn easy lol

Just search for the answers for the games. There's answers for Flexicon, Clink, and Crosswire. And anagrammer.com will give you chicktionary answers.

[opterasis]

ive gotten the hang of flexicon, its cake now. Is there a puzzle per day limit?

even with the bonus tickets from searches with the toolbar, almost 1000 puzzles for the zune? thats kinda crazy.

[v1et r1ce]

How much of a bonus is the toolbar worth?

[opterasis]

Didnt keep track, but I think i got maybe 10 points, 1 per search

[zellers94]

10 points a day limit 1 search=1 point

[v1et r1ce]

Wow thats pretty much worthless then...

[Access_Denied]

Not worthless. In a little over three years, you could have an Xbox 360*.

*Must complete all games first.

[Jesus_S_Preston]

You do? My controller and Kameo were both left on my front porch.

So the tracking thing says my Arcade Unplugged left a location half an hour away from me at seven thirty this morning. Kameo did the same thing Saturday, so going by that model, it'll arrive late tonight.

[RESmonkey]

It depends. Zunes must be signed. Controllers don't.

How I know? I didn't have to sign for the controller, and my Zune tracking thing says SIGNATURE REQUIRED.

[Malachi]

Hey everyone...I also received some prizes today. I got Kameo, PGR3, XBL Arcade and a controller...all of which were ordered on July 8th. I got shipping emails for them last week. Anyway, they were all ordered from a zeroed account that I used LM with. So...I think the prizes are slowly starting to trickle in.



Stuff I got for free thanks to CAG:applause::
2 XBox 360 Common Controllers
3 XBox 360 Games: Kameo, PGR3, XBL Arcade
