how do you know your average attempts for each if you don't know what you're going to win if your win..? confused.
 
[quote name='Unknown50862']Well if anyone is interested, I put a bit of my statistics togethor to give people an idea on how many tries it takes to get something. Of course this is just me, and it would seem that prizes vary from time to time and person to person.

Overall Tries - 3250
Overall Prizes - 63

100 MS Points - 49
Twisted Faceplate - 8
Gamepack - 6

Thats awesome! Thanks for posting! :bouncy:
 
With the multiple attempts to win, did you just create a bunch of email addresses to use? I've got 3 accounts registered but it amounts to only 3 tries a day.

It is highly variable though (in that the odds are not always the same). I know I did a few thousand tries before winning a single game pack. In that time I won 6 or 7 faceplates. This was pretty early on (end of July). And then there are times when it seems no one wins anything (like right before they changed up the free codes to email only). And then it seems there are 1-2 hour periods when it spits prizes like crazy :lol:. This is a very strange contest...
 
It was probably said 1000 times but after searching 20 pages and not finding it was just hopeing for an answer.

Currently my xbox live has expired and I've yet to re activate it. Can I possibly take the 48 hour trials and add it to my expired account and get free live until 2009 :D. If this is possible can I add them all at once or do I just add them after each one expires?

I realize it mentions something about it on the first page .. but I'm just curious if it can deff. be done :D

You can only add one at a time to a Silver account. It doesn't show as being good until a specific date. In fact, I don't think it even shows as gold. It just works, but it isn't *really* a gold membership. Unless you only play online occasionally I don't see the point of messing with these 48 hour codes. However, they are great to use for my boys. For the occasional Bomberman match I can use 2 codes on their accounts and we can all play online. But for my main account it was definitely worth shelling out the clearance prices I paid for a couple of 1-year kits ($39 for 2 years) ;).
 
fuck!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! My laptop is all fucked up and now every time I start it up it says hit Ctrl+Alt+Delete to restart computer and it keeps coming back to that screen. Now I have to find a reboot disk or I'm screwed. I have about 2,000 M$ Points on there, verification for Faceplates and Gamepack, and my Portfolio for school!!!
 
Although I'm more of a desktop user myself, you might want to boot up in safe mode. Don't have a clue what could be causing the problem, but chances are it is something messed up in the background. If safe mode doesn't work, then it probably has something with your hardware.

Like I said this is purely speculation, just going off what I know about computers in general.

Yesterday's Winnings:

7x 100 MS Points
1x Twisted Faceplate

Nice work, thanks for posting this, but it is really random how prizes are won. I won a bunch about a month ago before they changed the CAPTCHA codes. There used to be a set number that you could save in yoru browser. I think I wont like 6 gamepacks and only 2 faceplates which was fine with me.

I just checked it out now to see how things have changed. Are there still a set amount of CAPTCHA codes or are they 100% random now?

Seriously...all that in one day...Man, wish I was that lucky. About how many tries for those winnings?
 
[quote name='sp00ge']If anyone wins another gamepack, I will give you a bunch of XBL points or whatever. I've been trying for months to win one and have had no luck. I'm a well loved (and hated by some) person around here. I'll be sure to thank you. :D

I am trying to get every 360 game in my collection, and the two in the gamepack are ones I don't have yet. No need to worry about me trying to turn a profit on generosity.[/QUOTE]

PM sent...
 
Anyone get word of the consoles arrival time that won them beginning of August? Heard about the 4-6wks from the beginning of September, but its getting close to that (and halo release soon...)
 
[quote name='LoganDX']150 tries today
1 gamepack
1 faceplate
600 ms points

edit: the faceplate is up for grabs...[/QUOTE]

Good lord, that is the best return I've ever seen on that many tries. I've lost track of how many times I've done that many and gotten NOTHING.
 
[quote name='io']I just did 50 tries (about all I can take at one sitting) and, as usual, got nothing...[/QUOTE]

You can't give up at 50. I find that if I go 50 times without a win there will be a win between 50-75.
 
[quote name='Limpbizkit182521']You can't give up at 50. I find that if I go 50 times without a win there will be a win between 50-75.[/QUOTE]

Ah, but I'm trying not to be like a gambling addict ;). You can always think there's a win right around the corner. I set a limit (50 this time, usually much less at one time) and that's all I do. Now, actually, if I WIN a few times I might keep going as it seems like the prizes come and go (it is NOT completely even odds from time-to-time). It looks like a few hours back there was another deluge of prizes. Usually it seems to be early morning (but not 3-5 AM Pacific like when I often try to play - that is a dead zone for some reason). A mid-afternoon spree is kind of odd.
 
[quote name='Limpbizkit182521']Its not gambling because you're not losing anything.[/quote]

except time... oh, and patience:D
 
So far I must've done this thing around 200 times and I've gotten 200 ms points. Got the faceplate from kevlar, so what I'm really going for are the 360 and game pack.

I don't really give half a shit about touring some xbox factory, but I'm sure those people would probably get a bunch of free xbox shit, so I wouldn't mind :p.

You actually have to buy the drink to win that (instant win cap)
 
[quote name='h2dk']You actually have to buy the drink to win that (instant win cap)[/quote]

Ah, well that's not happening then
 
Well I got another faceplate that I definitely don't need, so first to PM me gets it. Gone.

So far then I've gotten 300 ms points and 2 faceplates, but still nothing really good...
 
[quote name='Limpbizkit182521']Its not gambling because you're not losing anything.[/QUOTE]

No, but if you keep going and going because a win is "just around the corner" it can have similar effects - like effecting your job and family life ;). Yeah, sure, without the huge financial loss aspect, but similar nonetheless.

Anyway, point is I limit myself to 20 or 30 or 50 tries at once, no more than a couple times a day even if I don't win (though like I said, if I win a couple times in those tries I'll keep going a bit because the prize rate is most likely higher). That way it doesn't consume me.
 
Oh...and thanks SpazX and romaniandudeisbk

And if anyone else has faceplates or gamepacks or something they don't want PM me! Thanks in advance!
