Aah, but if you win, are they tier qualifying points?

No. Since that's the same exact roll I got.

Guest blogger sfletcher posted yesterday that some changes were made that supposedly clear up the issues with the game. He also states:
If you're continuing to experience issues, please let us know in the comments section of this post!
Anyone who wants to play the game and is still having trouble should head over to the blog and post comments there.

Tried again tonight. Could not get past the initial screen.

My code, however, was a precient KRPR (as in crapper, which is where this airline is headed).

I eventually got the game to work yesterday. Tried again today - couldn't get the game to roll the dice. Hit refresh and got the "you already played today" message. POS

Yep, me too. I was thinking it was my hotel connection speed. If there is one thing worse than a game you can not win it is a game that you can not play.

I know that there is no actual "roll" and that it just has to do with the time I click the button, but at least show me different numbers each time so I don't get bored

Good grief, I really can't win; after another dismal site fail I went to leave a comment on his blog and it never posted. At least FT is still my friend

BTW, the game site failed under FF 4.0x and IE 8.0. Will try FF 5.0 Friday and see.

My wife and I just played and each got:

2, 2, 3, 6, 6...

Same exact combo... random? I think not.

The game works for me, but I have to log in with my email address twice. The first login attempt merely refreshes the login screen.

Hmmm...good thing that takes all of 30 seconds to roll the dice and not get anything.

Nothing ventured nothing gained I guess.

Today I got to the game page, pressed "lets fly" , field went dark then returned to an inoperative "lets fly."

So, I am batting .250

I'll go one step further and state that Southwest should have avoided any association with eprize. That company invariably presents its sweepstakes in a misleading manner, disclosing the actual operation (drawing strictly by time of day) only in the fine, fine print. Southwest should avoid any partner that deals in deception.
