I assume it's a trial run for it, though why they need it I'm not sure. Either that, or they're just trying to reset all pending points to 0 for next year.

I'm interested in seeing how they're going to demonstrate if the free season pass is still available.

This might be a dumb question, but for the rebate this month do you need to spend the $25 by the very end of December, or by 12/21?

Kind of dumb to reward the first 100. It's about 7:30 am pst and I know I have 0 chance to be in the first 100 already.

My 2% rebate for November showed up in my pending points on the Rewards site this morning, and my marketplace balance is up 80 points, reflecting my Nov rebate and Nov survey.

Gotta love Xbox getting in on the end of the world stuff, only adds fuel to the fire.

Well I took a shot at it earlier anyway. We'll see if I made the cut or not in a month. Planned on buying it anyway, especially with my surplus of discounted points. Here's to hoping that I snagged the game and pass for the equivalent of $7.50.

My pending points just updated, and non of the Halo 4 related points were on the list. Anyone have it show up for them?

I'm kinda interested in the game. Is it any good?

I have the trial queued up but I wanted an opinion as well.

Same with mine (except mine's 1%, I don't have that much G's ).

Do you know if they round off your rebate since I bought Quantum Conundrum last month for 600 MSP, meaning with the 1%, my rebate SHOULD have been 6 MSP.

Now I noticed they gave 10 MSP (yep, it's a lot ). Because if they do round them off, it'd be a great way to get back "more" points than the rebate would suggest (although not that much more).

No.

Yeah, they appear to be rounding up to the nearest 10. In October, I spent 5,120 MSP. 2% of that is 102.4, I got a 110 MSP rebate. Last month I spent 2,640 MSP, 2% would be 52.8, I got back 60.

Got back 90 points just now for my November survey and 2% back. I Always thought they gave you points when it's 100 and more after beginning of every month and half.

Originally Posted by bardockkun Got back 90 points just now for my November survey and 2% back. I Always thought they gave you points when it's 100 and more after beginning of every month and half.

For this month, they're depositing points (regardless of how much you have) by the 6th and again by the 16th (I think, I know it's sometime during the middle of the month).

It's a special because of the whole apocalypse thing, incase you wanna spend some points before we all (supposedly) start to die.

Haha yeah that's nice, just got the email newsletter on that. I see my 2% was applied and I also did this month's survey. I might pick up the War Game's pass for Halo 4 too.

Got my survey and MyAchievement points...but no Halo 4 related points even though I bought the season pass. Anybody get thiers yet?

So does the 2% back from the achievements thing show up as pending on your rewards account? I ask because I'm still not seeing anything from what I bought last month and wondering if I should contact someone about it.

I already got my 2% back two days ago from last month points should have been desposited 6th december this month or so it states =O

Two silly questions: have you checked billing.msn.com to make sure that they weren't already deposited, & were you a Gold member for the entirety of the month?

Simple things to have in check before firing-off emails/tweets to support.
