58,400 total for me:

try one done one = 1k
stay more earn more (5nights) =6.7k
explore 2 brands = 12k
book with us = 2.4k
survey = 0.1k
city life = 7.2k ( I can do 1 hotel, not sure about the others..)
win big = 29k

Its not amazing but I welcome the passive bonus points regardless.

Yes! Me too! In Germany and it can NOT open up. I tried a proxy but then I couldn't see what I got on the registration. Have no idea!

Got a solid offer, methinks...

115,500 total

1K - 1 Stay
.1K - Survey
12K - Stay 2 Saturdays
14K - Stay 30 nights
30K - Stay at 6 Brands
58K - Do all the above

This is... very doable. The only thing that jumps out as being something that I wouldn't normally do is the Saturday stays.
