LIVE SEARCH SCAM's message to him was:

Thank you for contacting us with regard to your recent activity with Microsoft Live Search Club

We’re committed to providing a positive experience for the millions of users that are enjoying the games.

This isn't that unusual from what I have read in Gamer forums. A lot of people were ripped off by Microsoft when they tried to redeem for the xbox special last year. I would never redeem for anything that high, since its in microsofts best interest to say that everyone who gets 30k points cheated. After all its not like you can fight it or take the search results back from Microsoft.

Any experience?

Thanks.
It's not really accurate. It depends on when someone at air incentives decides to batch post them, as most FTers get them posted on the same dates.

We've had 'em post in as little as 5 or 6 days and as much as 30 days or more, but they've always posted as yet...

That's great news. Based on past results that means AA should be a few days behind. Maybe tomorrow, but probably early next week.

Chictionary is faster if you use Internet Explorer. You can type a word, press enter, then type the next; whereas firefox u have to left click mouse on the data entry space of applet before you type in another word.

I don't believe I didn't know that! I used to keep clicking. Finally, something IE is good for!

Yes, Matty-boy has a fine point-earning game but you run out of games quickly.

I received the pop-up about taking the survey, but when I clicked on it, I was told that the survey was closed.

The MCF Prime Suspects game is pretty easy. Once you do a few you can get about 10 tickets in under a minute.

Fun game. Hammer away at the same pic over and over and you get them under a minute after a few times. Very fast points.
