However, what constitutes a "fair" uptake of the offer is clearly open to interpretation and is not written in black and white from what I can see.

I can certainly understand why some Tesco staff seen suspicious when a customer tries to pre-order so many games- it is not "normal" but then again, neither is it breaking the "rules".

If I were in the country I am sure I would be partaking of this Avios opportunity. But at the same time appreciate I am not entirely playing fair pre-ordering games I have no intention of buying in full

We need to remember that aggressively searching for Avios collecting opportunities is a minority sport! Most people out there have never heard of Avios and the lengths some of us go to collect them may appear a little odd to them perhaps?
I have given away the preorder vouchers before as I could not use them.
At least you're not me who spends <60 days in the UK but maximises opportunities to earn Avios whenever I am there
