What about this:
12. HOW WILL YOU KNOW IF YOU’RE A WINNER?
On or around September 25, 2008, we, or a company acting under our authorization, will complete judging and winner determination for the People’s Choice and Contest formats (subject to verification). If you are a potential winner, we will notify you by sending a message to the e-mail address, the phone number, or mailing address (if any) listed on your entry within seven (7) days following the determination. If the notification that we send is returned as undeliverable, or you are otherwise unreachable for any reason, we may award the award/prize to an alternate.

Quick question. I think I got some points a month or two back but last I heard, each account can only redeem one 100 MS Point code. Did they change this? I took a quick look at the FAQ and it states that you can now redeem up to 2000. Is that true?

The 100 points was given when you signed up and created a car. The 100 point cap was just there so people couldn't create multiple accounts and redeem the 100 point codes under the same account. You could earn up to 2000 points by creating and rating cars daily.

There has been an unexpected delay with issuing the point codes. You will receive an email with a coupon code(s) for accumulated points through July 18, 2008 (less the 100 Points received at registration) that you can deposit into your Microsoft Points account. You should receive your final Microsoft Points email with coupon code(s) in approximately 7-14 business days.

I doubt that's the reason. I think it's because they underestimated the amount of people who entered and now they're stalling for time.

It's really aggravating that it's taking them so long. They've had, what, over a month since the promotion ended? (Just checked - ended August 25th.) On top of that, it was July 18th when they stopped allowing any more points from accumulating because they were all claimed.

They've now had about 2 and a half months to get the codes ready and sent out. It really should have been ready long before September 19th, just waiting for them to push the button. But, who knows what happened...

Sure, free is free... but it's still a disappointing annoyance :???:

It's possible they are trying to filter out those people who only placed one color default cars just to get the points.

I dont know for sure obviously but I have a feeling they are taking this long because either:

A. They are trying to filter the contest some way, shape or form and those who do not qualify will get an email or whatever stating that they didn't qualify for 'xxxxxx' reason(s).

B. They are going to 'end' the thing and not give out crap and claim that due to the contest rules being severly breached, its over, end of story.

There weren't any rules saying you couldn't use the default color. Maybe everybody just likes red. ;)

A. That would suck, but at least those who were slightly honest will get something.

LOL why does this thread keep getting bumped?

Do you really think they are going to send the points? Seriously.. this contest was exploited. They ran out of MS Points in a short time. Why would they send more? Especially since so many exploited it.

If they show.. cool. I only had 1 account. Not a big deal to me. If not.. no big loss.

Im not sure why everyone is giving theres away (not that I mind, its quite generous) I got a bunch of 50 pt codes and they all worked for me. Didnt say I could only use one on my account.

So do the points expire on Feb 17, or do the codes just stop working then?

The douche bags shorted me 100 points. Now I don't have enough to buy anything...other than a theme or something.

I like how everyone is going crazy about free points from something that they probably abused.
