Ran out of another game

Well, I ran out of Spelling Bee games this evening - this is now three games completely depleted on LSC.

Do you mind sharing how many games/tickets it took to max out Spelling Bee and the other two games? Matt Lauer is a given at around 1250....

Spelling Bee is just like Chicktionary - around 23 days (23,000 points). I think I'm going to run out of CrossWire next (already earned more than 16,000 points) . . .

Crosswire maximum for me was 22,140 -- so you are getting close.

I expected that was the case - will have to find another game that's quicker per point than CrossWire, obviously.

Help! I think I made a stupid mistake using Live Search Club. I used my "tickets" to redeem on Alaska Airlines because I was told what a good program they have. I did without researching. Here is my problem: I was going to use my miles on Alaska Air to fly NW. I can only fly from cities that Alaska services! I am no where near an Alaska hub. What do I do?? I live between BHM and MEM so NW is what I need.

I am not all that familiar with Alaska's program, and I do not know to where you would like to travel, but I managed to find award availability on Alaska's website between MEM and AUS using Northwest's nonstops. (Also available were itineraries requiring connections on Delta and American.)

Hey HMV,

Were any of the miles you redeemed for AA done on the same day one right after each other so your order numbers would like like this xxx352 xxx353? Or were all of your 6 redemptions done on different days throughout the week so your order numbers would look like xxx458 xxx532 xxx675 etc?

AA Tue! Appears today was for redemptions from (at least) 8/11 and 8/13.

A little suprised, didn't expect anything, with the national holiday. Figured processing would be delayed a day, or a week. A pleasant way to start the week.

I forget how late it was (Central time) when I redeemed my tickets on 8/16, but my AA miles did not post today. However, I wasn't expecting them to post until next week.
