If you write to them and complain, they give you the 5 points.

Max is out of Auto and still in Education. Still get error message when I click him, though.

Sent an email that MyPoints Max wouldn't credit yesterday or today. (Included MyPoints account #, which is found under Member Services, then Get Account #.) Got an email back within 20 minutes:

Thanks gleff. I'll do the same. Does this mean that Max is back and the hunt continues?

They must have fixed MAX as I just got 5 points for clicking on him in EDUACATION/LEARNING at 11:20 EST.

When I click on edu/learning, I get this:

I don't get it anywhere else. Am I the only one having this problem?

Just got 5 points in Education/Learning. I'll try emailing MyPoints at [email protected] to get credit for this weekend.

Take me away and bring me back home safely!

Take me away and bring me back home safely!

Still in toys/games.

Not there (or anywhere I looked) for me.

He's gone. The Max icon is gone from earn points, visit web sites.

Max in New Merchants for 50 Points (yes 50)
Seems to have speeded up since he spent the week in the auto shop

Now guys: how about kepping one thread for Max and not starting a new thread each time he re-appears.
