So, there's this new "unlocking" thing, but I don't see any mention of CAPTCHA's... could it be?

Finally a real AMEX contest! Spring Going Once was a bust.

Excellent. Welcome back everyone!

And so it begins........Welcome back everyone! Here's hoping for the best WL yet.

Awesome!

Let the game begin!!!

Shouldnt it be, "Should have a AMEX card by June 1st" ?

It says you need an AMEX card by May 1st to purchase the dream items, but it doesn't say anything about the other items.

Cute. Either they don't believe CAPTCHA is an effective way to defeat us or that members complained so bitterly that they've dropped the issue.

I believe it's probably the latter. Plus, my theory probably held true that the vast majority of FWers still ended on the top list since we had technology (quicker flash), determination (stubborn), and fast fingers to beat the vast majority of the rest of the population. AMEX admin must have been cursing the fact that the same names kept popping up on the winner's list...

The unlocking maybe an interesting twist. They'll track the ID#s directly and verify eligibility from the very beginning. That'll do one of two things. 1: crash the verification servers immediately with all that constant crunching; 2: stop constant usage of the same ID since they'll be able to track that and cannot be changed efficiently.

yeah, I'm curious how this will work out, especially after that membership rewards fiasco where you had to log in first.

Yeah! WL is back!

WASSUP Peeps!?!?!?!??!!

Gotta go get some work done NOW, because the first couple weeks of JUNE will be busy with Wishlist!

Hiya Montreid,edlin303, LS, et al...

The advantage will now belong to those hiring Home Depot migrants in a home-based PC center.

NICE!!! What's up all!

Howdy ya'll! Looking forward to another fun WishList!! I am still really enjoying the Amazon elliptical machine I got with my certificate from last time.

Chariot--still loving that bike???

alert mods    

hello all
I wonder if we'll have to register with the CC# like the mobile wishing
or we'll enter the CC# as part of clicking the "I want it"

alert mods    

I do! Oddly, my wife loves it too. She has lots of "Mom genes", so she looks at safety first, but she is also a cool chick, so likes to ride with me. Hope we all have some good stories after this one.

wassup chariot!!!

I just finished my spring "Q-tip" cleaning of the HOG on Saturday.... almost 7 hours! Now you need 3 pairs of sunglasses to walk past the bike, all that SHINY CHROME!!!

*NOTE TO OTHERS (oldtimers)... both meeting places are active now...
