Who IS Max Points? (MyPoints)
 

I noticed this on the MyPoints FAQ:
Has anybody ever seen Max Points? I haven't.

Who is Max Points?
Max Points is a character that periodically appears throughout the MyPoints Web site. Max hides on pages where maximum Point earning opportunities can be found. Max is not a daily site feature and will typically make 2-3 appearances per week. On days when Max is making an appearance, there will be notification on either the Visit Web sites page, the Member Home page or both, announcing his presence and encouraging members to search for him and earn Points. Points are awarded to members who find Max and click on him. Points awarded will vary.

He used to appear frequently, but I have not seen him in a while.

Oh, to remember those beauteous days 6 months ago when Max would bring joy and up to 1000 points to faithful clickers 2-3 times a week. My heart's a flutter just thinking of it.

wbflyer, this FT thread will illustrate the extent to which Max was pursued:

Last week was my birthday and I got a birthday email from Mypoints with Max. Clicked on Max on got a big five points!

Oh wow 5 points - I can't wait! Mine is next week!

He must have been too busy hanging out in your e-mail because he missed mine! http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/frown.gif

Happy Birthday, Yashan!
Sorry about Max. Hope your day was special without him.

Alas, Poor Max was a dear friend that appears to have departed for a better place before christmas last year. He was seen daily until that time and would reward you with up to 1000 points (he was a generous kind) but sometime before christmas he just stopped popping up.

He will be missed by many.

I just got a visit in my inbox by Max Points!
5 points for my birthday (actually it's next week, but I put a diff one for confidentiality). http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/wink.gif
