You got 200 ptz and didn't get the e-mail so you couldn't enter ptzplace? If yes, that sucks, but really you probably wouldn't have gotten anything. This redemption was a joke, just like all the previous ones. I have 2k ptz and they're going to expire in August, I'm losing hope that there will be a 24/7, how the hell would Lockerz be able to supply a million people requesting prizes?

[Aslan]

Heh, missed it entirely. I didn't have enough for anything good anyhow so I can't really say I was paying attention.

At this point level I would just hold off and keep trying for what you want until your points start to expire a great deal.
Perhaps they will release a 24/7 store before then (although I'm doubtful), and you can get something like a Macbook.

Blah. Was like 20 minutes late. Fresh out of everything.

I didn't even check for the redemption. I never got my email, so I assumed that the redemption wasn't going to happen till after all the emails were sent out. I am disappointed that I didn't get a chance to participate after I spent all that time watching the videos.

I'm thinking though that they will not be releasing the store for 24/7 purchases until current points start expiring for sure and considering how many points they've been giving out recently I wouldn't doubt that they would likely increase the points needed by like 10X. If not, how would they ever be able to afford to just hand out all those prizes to all those people with no real income? Not likely to happen.

[Bastet13]

Thinking about it more, I think I'm finally done with lockerz. Logging in once a day and answering the dailies took hardly any time or effort, so even if I really didn't EVER get ANYTHING, no big deal, but now with them jacking up the pointz and you have to spend all that time watching the videos in order to get anything decent is too much time wasted for me to end up with NOTHING. I sent them an email complaining about the spring fling, but I'm sure I won't get any sort of response just like the last one I sent. Good luck to the rest of you.

They get advertising revenue through most of those very videos you've been watching... and I'd assume especially make some good coin from the movie trailers they have up.

Maybe, but how many millions could they possibly be making as compared to the millions of members that want laptops, PS3s, ipods, etc, etc, etc. Frankly I don't know how many active members they have, but lets say they were to give 100,000 members a $150 dollar gift (VERY conservative #s I think especially when it becomes a 24/7 store) that equals $15,000,000 dollars. so, again, how many millions could they possibly be making?

Liberty Media is a pretty big company and most of the funding comes from there. The rest comes from advertisements on the videos, and apparently they sell the dailies responses but I don't know how that works...
Oh yeah, and also Kathy Savit (sp) was a CEO of Amazon and she owns Lockerz.

Liberty is the majority shareholder as they own 80% so they can be construed as the 'owner'. Kathy Savitt is 'merely' the CEO, and is most likely a minority shareholder in the company.

Update:

General Redemption Update: We've heard great feedback from our members on the Spring Fling redemption and double PTZ. We want to keep making your Lockerz experience as good as it can be, so we'll be giving our members two separate redemptions this month. One will be for members in US and Canada; the other for international members. We hope this will allow all our members to redeem at the hour and time that is best for them. In order to give you more PTZ and more power when you redeem, we'll be bringing back double PTZ tomorrow!

Damn it's going to be so hard to redeem going against the Americans.
