I'm playin the Flexicon game... I got up to, uh, 1100 or so last night:biggrin:
I think I'm gonna go for the 1500 point headset first off, then maybe a game, a controller, and a Zune finally.:smile:

Just haven't.*shrug* been kinda busy, I just play the Flexicons 'n' stuff later at night, like 11 or 12pm or so.
Junit
06-28-2007, 08:01 PM
Yeah , flexicon is really addicting at night for some reason xD , I got 900 points at 1 am and im sitting on a nice 2003 at the moment , I'm going to get a couple wireless controllers (2 or 3) before anything else.
Cheezeball99
06-28-2007, 08:37 PM
Just a warning, though, guys- It's all free and everything, but tack on about 2&1/2 months from the time you order it, that's when you'll get it- I just cashed in for my headset last night, but they say it's estimated shipping date is 8/22/07.:sad: Oh well, I'll get it when I'm not expecting it, a nice present for myself.:biggrin:

Please don't hate me.
Junit
06-29-2007, 11:28 PM
I don't hate you :P , I also know someone who knows someone in the united states and said I can send it to them and they will send to me :D , I already got a controller getting shipped , now it's between xbox live arcade unplugged or the usb headset ..

Dude, you could by a 1GB flash drive for like 15 bucks, easy, man. That ain't worth it.

Everyones sure this is legit eh? dont wanna spend all my time working for a 360 or something then it either goes down or wont send to me?

Well, I'm sure it's legit, after all, it IS Microsoft, but one thing that you CAN'T be sure of is if the site won't go down or they discontinue it sometime before you get enough for your 360. They might've underestimated just how many people want free stuff, and how hard they'll work to get it.
Junit
06-30-2007, 03:35 AM
Yeah , that's true cheezeball , I think I'll get a arcade unplugged and the 1500 point headset

Did they change the puzzles for flexicon cause i cant find some of them in that thing from the first post.
canadajames
07-02-2007, 06:16 PM
edit:sry didnt realize double post
Ack i think they added a bunch of new puzzles is anyone working on a new thing?
I'll start doing some now and taking pictures but does anyone know of a good thing to take screenshots with?
Junit
07-02-2007, 06:30 PM
Print screen + copy it to paint xD , I ordered live arcade unplugged , I cant decide if I should go for another prize or quit XD , might go for fable even though I should wait for better prizes xD
canadajames
07-02-2007, 06:57 PM
K i found a way to do a copt best thing ever but anyways are they all new because i've already started doing so flexicon games have 2 done and everything already but i dont wanna go to all this work if someones working on an updated version anyone know if a project is underway?
Edit: Well I've already started a new pack for the flexicon games with screenshots and would be absolutely extatic if someone would help me. I Have done about 10 puzzles already and want to do any which are new or were missed I know it might take a little while but if only our forum does it we can keep it here in our forum. Anyways I would be able to refer you to a perfrct program for screenshots. Its 100 percent free and we would create a readme in the file listing our names. Also We should encrpyt the file with a password only given out to serious members of the forum. I know some people may crack it but it will help keep away the everyday person. So please help would be nice.

the ship dates usually dont take too long from the other forum they said usualy a week or two to get stuff. dont know why it says august for ship.
i just ordered my vista ill let you guys know how long it actually takes to get here. IM gonna try and bring it back to like a bestbuy or something i doubt theyll take it but if they do id be happy as i would then just buy a 360 for like 50 bucks.
Junit
07-02-2007, 09:02 PM
I hope the prizes come sooner , I don't know what else to get . I ordered for a Wireless 360 Controller , LifeChat Headset and Xbox Live Arcade Unplugged . Going to cost me alot to bring them to canada xD , What are your account names , I don't see cheezeball or anyone on the leaderboards , Mines junit1 and yeah bwalker I think shipping is long becuase its free LOL

That package is basically the reason im making my list. It comes with a bunch of stuff which is why i'm trying to figure out how many different puzzles there are. I have exactly 40 puzzles worth of screenshots done. So i know i probably have a lot more to go but really would like a reference point.

I was gonna do the same, x3, but I'm afraid that the site will stop before I attain that, and all of my points will "go to charity". Plus I have Gunz and NWN to play.:D

cheez you play nwn 1 or 2 and we should play together some time.
I play the first one, 'cuz the second one's one of the worst-programmed pieces of software trash imaginable, man. They took WAY too many shortcuts programming that game, and for it you need a computer 4x better than you should to run it. I would like to play it, but I don't meet it's Reqs.

Well that sucks, man, but oh well, it's free, right?:biggrin: Can't argue with free stuff. If you ordered around the same time as me (when I posted I ordered, if I did:p) then you should be gettin' your stuff any day now.

08-16-2007, 07:33 PM
They shipped my ultimate it should arrive today im psyched about that. Now i need to sell it lol since i have premium im not bother to use it. The extra features are not worth the 250 i can make selling it.
Junit

Yeah I ordered all my crap on june 28 , 29 and july 1 , they said 6-8 weeks for it to be shipped to north dakota
bwalker
08-17-2007, 11:15 AM
Yeah i was worried they would not ship them since they obviously figured out people were cheating by ordering 3 copies of stuff in a week. They reset alot of peoples points and i never got a confirmation email either. I had given up and something made me check my hot mail and low and behold i had a tracking email.
Junit
08-17-2007, 04:21 PM
