Get Vista, a 360, Zune legit

You can play games to earn points to buy stuff at
Live Search Club

You just need a msn account/windows live login. It's all run by MS.


Free Word Descrambler and Word Finder will let you find words for chicktionary (I wrote a program that solves the entire puzzle in under 20 seconds, so points/per ratio nets me about $30-$40 an hour) There is a cap on puzzles you can solve per day though =( I hit the cap at 1000 points a day =( Not bad when all I have to do is type the letters that need to be scrambled, then sit back and let it go.

Every answer inputed in these games creates a hit on MS search engine, thats how they get their money out of this deal.

Even if you don't want any of the prizes, you could always sell teh junk.

seekado2.rar - FileFront.com solutions to word search puzzles. Few I tried weren't in this file though

327_Flexicons.7z - FileFront.com has great solutions for the crossword puzzles. One question will be in yellow. That is the question you look up in the solution folders. Even without automation you can solve a puzzle in 1 min manually. So thats about $15 an hour for your work. Not terribly bad if you are looking for some free junk.

descrambler thing was great for chicktionary. 20 points for completing that entire puzzle though, guess you actually have to spend that actual hour earning shit. can't imagine if people played this legit

How long does this thing last? Selling a 360 every month would be a nice side income ;p.

Yea thanks for sharing this... I'd hate to get to 34,000 points and have this little set-up "disappear" but I'll give it a go for the heck of it...

I used to play this type of game for fun... my girlfriend loves it.

If you share that little program that enters the words so my fingers don't fall off entering the words you'll be my hero.

EDIT: There aren't a max number of chicktionary games you can play are there? For instance, would I hit 20,000 points and then have to switch to another game to earn the rest of the points? While digging for the legitimacy of this online I noticed that someone mentioned this as a possible scenario.

There is a limited amount of puzzles for each game, yes. They've added a lot more lately. When it first came out a couple of months ago they had 3 games and only a couple hundred puzzles each. I think the most points you could get was 2900 or so. Since then they have added many more puzzles and games.

I ordered my Vista Ultimate a couple of weeks ago. Estimated ship date was like 2 months away. Think it's the end of August now.

I've seen several prizes on the prize list disappear, so it's very likely they have a limited amount of some. I'm betting Zunes and XBOXes won't be unlimited and once the first few dozen go, they will be gone.

Here is the program. I didn't intend to give it out so its not too fa, ncy. I just whipped it up last night. It uses IE for the browser. If you have never used IE to play, log on with IE at least once so that the app will auto log in for you.

Type the letters into the letter box and let it go. You don't actually need to use any of the buttons you see. If for some reason it misses some answers, press the key corresponding to the letters of the word a bunch until it finds an answer (press 3 for a 3 letter word etc)

I tested it with the default XP/Vista themes. I didn't bother coding it for custom themes so if you have a weird one, it may screw up.

Flash screws up for some reason and stops responding to button clicks. Just click in the big text box and then the flash will start working again.

If it screws up, umm its only alpha =)
