So you got the MacBook Pro? Nice. [editline]09:50PM[/editline] ...or just missed it
[QUOTE=codenamecueball;23547659]So you got the MacBook Pro? Nice. [editline]09:50PM[/editline] ...or just missed it[/QUOTE] I was in shipping info for MacBook Pro. Used some macros to simulate keystrokes, but it relied on the old field placement. So I had to go back and fix the mistakes. Too late missed that, so I went back and I was able to get in shipping info for iMac. But I didn't type out details fast enough, so I just went for gift cards. Got out with a Best Buy $100 and an American Express $25. Eh, works for me!
Getting a Trilby tomorrow that I ordered in SHOP.
I don't understand this site. Why do I have to get invited and how?
I don't understand this redemption stuff. I've been a member like a year or two now. But haven't been using until recently. The shop always says we are restocking, the redemption was up today, but it said I was not part of it. Do you have to be z list for all redemptions? And when redemptions pop up how long do they last? I see people saying they missed it, but according to the site I just can't join it. But it seems like Z listers can. I don't see why I'm collecting points if I can't use them. And generally, how many points does it take to get something? Like says a PS3, it's around $300, what would that be in lockerz points, if a PS3 is on there at all. What about something like an i-pad?
No, you had to buy something from shop to get in this redemption. Head to PLAY and get 100 PTZ (watch the dalies, easiest way) each video can be watched 5 times, you get 6PTZ per watch. Prices of stuff have gone up loads, its 21000 for an iMac. 4125 for MacBook or iPad. Not sure of PS3. Redemptions are fastest first, you gotta hurry to get something.
Smart move Lockerz, you lowered the amount of ptz earned when buying stuff from shop. So now you have to spend at least $10 instead of $5 to get 50 ptz so you can get into the third shop redemption. They're really trying to squeeze as much money out of us, as if they're not making plenty enough. :| Lucky for me I was able to get 52 ptz with just $5 before they changed it.

But from what I'm reading it seems really really hard to get into a redemption. Like how many people get in each time? And how common are open or Z-list redemptions? Not shop ones. I know they're random, but how many usually happen per month?
Anybody can get in. General ones, once a month. Z-List redemptions don't exist. There have been 4 fucking US only redemptions this month, and I fucking hate it.
Here's a screen of the prices, again. [url=http://stashbox.org/959941/20100722134329.png]Electronics[/url] [url=http://stashbox.org/959943/20100722134636.png]Brands we love[/url] Could we add this to the OP?
Doesn't stuff cost money now?
Hopefully by next year the 24/7 redemption will be up. Oh wait, I forgot; SHOP is totally better.
I recall Lockerz saying that what they had revealed to us was just a small amount of what we would be able to redeem. Yeah, right...
Woah why do things cost a lot more now? Now I'll never be able to get anything

[QUOTE=codenamecueball;23548396]Z-List redemptions don't exist.[/QUOTE] Actually once upon a time, when SHOP and Play did not exist, there were Z-lister redemptions.
So when a redemption starts how long do you have to get in and get something? And is it limited to a specific number of people, or does it just end really fast?
[QUOTE=ZF911;23551151]So when a redemption starts how long do you have to get in and get something? And is it limited to a specific number of people, or does it just end really fast?[/QUOTE] Depends what you're going for. Generally if you want anything worthwhile, like an iPad or an iPod touch, you have literally 10 - 15 seconds to redeem right when the redemption is live. Gift cards and such will last for awhile. Redemptions don't end for awhile, maybe over an hour or so sometimes. It's just the good stuff goes out within a very small amount of time. So there are two different kinds of redemptions, SHOP and general. SHOP redemptions are nice and smooth, and if you know what you're doing, it is possible to redeem some of the worthwhile stuff. However, they are limited to those who fulfill the requirements. The one happening right now, you need to earn at least 50 ptz in order to participate. AKA a fancy saying of spend at least $10 to get in. Before it was $5, but they raised it up because they know they can milk more money. General redemptions happen at the beginning of each month now and are usually super easy to get into. I think for this month's you just need to earn 100 ptz. Easy, but they're also more prone to lots of traffic and lag. It's open internationally, meaning you have more competition as well. So if you want the best chance of redeeming something, the SHOP redemptions are your best bet.
So for this month's, you mean get a hundred points this month, get into next month's redemption? It looks like I have no chance of getting anything good. I'm glad they're trying to stop auto fillers, gives me a chance. I wish they at least showed the points needed for items when the sale isn't going on. Because I have no idea what I need to get before a redemption.
No more autofillers? Really?
[QUOTE=Errorproxy;23552357]No more autofillers? Really?[/QUOTE] Hopefully it makes it a little more fair for everyone but I doubt it.

It's also a safe site and won't log your account details. I know the guy who runs the site. It's only a matter of time till scripters find another workaround to autofill everything in. I believe the guy who made LRC already found one and has his script updated, he just hasn't released it yet.
When do they open shop for Canada, any time soon? I want to get an iMac or 2 and perhaps resell them :) [editline]01:24AM[/editline] Can someone explain fully how redeem works to me?
[QUOTE=Luafox;23553128]So, when they finally open shop for international members, do you think redemptions will still be terrible? [editline]03:23AM[/editline] Because it seems to be soon anyway.[/QUOTE] I don't think so. Traffic wise, I think it should be just a little slower than the current SHOP redemptions because people still have to pay to get in. That's just my take anyways.
I wanted to get one of those paypal $25 things, it said it was 300 points a little while ago, I said "Oh I can make that easy" I got the 300 points. Then today I saw the price again and died
I got around 7k pretty easy. triple ptz and 5x has been a dream come true. I don't know why so many people are gripping over making rather small amounts of ptz. well, and I guess being zlist helps, too. In reality, I'm getting 30x the normal amount of ptz per video.
8000 PTZ :toot:
[QUOTE=Steak;23553893]8000 PTZ :toot:[/QUOTE] 22000 PTZ :smug:
If a Z-Lister watched every single video right now you'd get 104,700 points. :aaaaa:
I'm not concerned about points, I'm concerned as to how I make it into the redemptions. I have to buy something from shop or what?
