While there are probably some internet games which are a scam, I wouldn't say many or all, for sure. I've won my fair share (some would say, more than that ) myself this year alone..

I can't decide whether last year's or this year's jingle is worse. I must admit that last year I sometimes turned my speakers on and found myself quietly humming the tune but this year I had to turn the speakers off after the first few minutes!

It's still better than the Oktoberfest music LH played

And what about that 10year Miles&More games from a while ago? While such things are going on there is normally quite some buzz around it (which is the whole reason of such games of course), but then nothing comes out of it, very often not even the winners are announced. Are the prices even distributed or is this a sham? (I know that many Internet-games with prizes, if not all, are scams and emailadresse collection schemes.)
And of course we all know who the winner of the Lady Bee naming competition was!

Interesting, the night/day rotation of the enclosure depends on the computer's clock. But of course that doesn't change the feeding or pooping time.

Don't know about other's poop, but my reindeer is poopLESS! It doesn't poop at all (for the past few days). Perhaps it's been flying a lot and now they all constipated!
and... IMHO, the last year music was more addictive....

Yes: changing my time zone let me see my enclosure lit up -- but it didn't take care of the "check up on your reindeer at night" requirement for the next level.

It definitely switches to night mode even if you stay logged on. A couple of minutes later I received the night watch award - if that's the word, I'm looking at a German version right now.
In the excitement I went and fertilized the wrong tree.

For the ones having constipated reindeers. Do not worry, they are all fine. The manure is automatically collected and available for dispersal amongst the trees in the toolbox on the lower right. :-)
