sorry for being a donkey, but this belongs in the brag moan thread...i've learned the hard way before when the mod would tell me....it's easier when it comes from a fellow member.

edit: now is the time for me to check my account and see what i can get for free... i didn't win the 50,000 points though...

why not wait till you get 15,000 points to get a MP3 Player?

I just had 5,000 points added to my account (and another 5,000 added to the wife's account) as a "as a gesture of appreciation", for my understanding about this system problem. I guess that's better than nothing. At least it puts me 4% closer that that Sony Playstation.

How do you guys get the 5000 pts? It did not show up in my account! I was one of the winners in the system glitch....but never got credited, only that cheap insulting 1000 pts.

And yes, this is Off Topic, please close it.

I didn't even "win" the 500,000 points and they still gave me 5,000.
