I can't believe that finally I have something posted that i didn't have to fight for!!
BTW Delta posted as Skymiles incentives, Alaska posted as points.com. so for the delta promo, this covers the incentives posting.

Thanks OP for telling us about the credit for the games.
I have not played this week, so I can't chime in on the errors.

Interesting, my Delta posted today as "Air Incentives"

Might be worth emailing Delta and getting an answer. I might just to have something in writing if they agree it's unique.

Thanks, everybody, for posting your information on the time involved in seeing these miles appear in our accounts.

BTW, what are Air Incentives?

Thanks.

Good afternoon all,

Just wanted to report that my order for Skymiles, placed on Jan. 17, posted today! I'm always a bit nervous when the deal seems too good to be true, so I'm very glad to see the miles show up!

Andy

Mine does that every time I go to club.live.com. When I try it again immediately after, it works the second time. Not sure why, but I got used to it.

Oh, and my DL miles posted too. Please let us know if anyone contacts DL and finds out if these are unique from a points.com redemption. If not, that's a shame. I needed more activity.

weird, my account got blocked, and yet i got my miles.

fyi, if you're playing flexicon and get stumped, don't just start putting in letters in alphabetical order until you get the word right. i believe msn interprets this as "bot" behavior, even if it's legit.

Its not the process of going through each letter but the speed in which you do it. Slow those fingers down a little bit.

I just cleared cookies and was able to log in now.

I emailed Delta so I'm awaiting a response regarding club live. Something tells me no though because it's technically points.com so if you have points.com activity then this would be useful for the promo.

That's what I'm afraid of. I would have preferred more AA, I only chose some DL for the promo.

Me too

Delta SkyMiles requested 1/18/08 were posted today between 8 AM Central and 12 PM Central. I also received an e-mail asking me to install a search engine tracker to send info about which search engines I use to Microsoft last week. If the DOJ allows the MSFT/YHOO merger, the Live Search points may no longer be offered. Time to get them while they are hot!

At this point, I think I'm blocked as well. I did go through the alphabet on a couple of clues, but I coincidentally lost the service just after my 5000 miles posted.

My problem is that I'm getting "Communication Error - The Server is Not Responding. Please Try Again Later." I'm getting the same single Flexicon puzzle over and over again when I'm signed in, but if I'm not signed in, I get new ones.

I've started by contacting Customer Service... does anyone have experience in getting unflagged? Or, am I pretty much pooched if I want to keep earning tickets/miles?

Both my 1000 and 100 mile Delta deposits posted today, which were requested on 1/17.

Thanks FT for letting me know about this excellent mile opportunity.

You're pretty much hosed if the experience on cheapassgamer.com is a fair indication. Essentially you'll be ignored unless you send repeated emails. That'll finally get them to tell you that you've cheated.

You can of course create a new account, but why bother?
