Well, you could have knocked me over with a feather!
I just got an email from CS with an apology and a free game coupon that's valid until 9 March!
Me, too. And according to the latest help articles, free game codes ARE eligible for bonus punches and there's no mention of them being ineligible for regular punches. I was tempted to reply to the email and ask if I'm correct regarding the above, but I think the CS reps have enough on their plate and there's already enough people killing the messenger.

What to do?...What to do? I keep going round & round about it.
Stusue...No, I didn't get a email telling me about the 75% off at Gamehouse. They must not like me or something. lol It doesn't matter much anyways as my membership will renew on March 15th and I am going to cancel before that. For 1 thing, spring will be here soon and for another I think if I rejoin again the yearly thing is the way to go. Makes more sense financially.
Sunshine, when you work out what you're going to do could you let me know? I have no idea, either.
I wonder if you don't get the 75% discount offer from GH as you've got a monthly FunPass and I've got an annual one, as it's for being "loyal".
As for your FunPass, I used to have a monthly membership which I cancelled and started up again several times, like when I went back to Australia and wouldn't have time to play anything. If I remember correctly, each time I was offered a special deal for an annual membership if I wanted to rejoin, which I finally took advantage of when I knew I'd be here for a year. But I think you only get a short time to accept. So you could think about that - should you get an offer, would you want to take them up on it or not? You may not get an offer but it may be a good idea to think about it, just in case.

Thought I posted this but I don't see it anywhere I got a coupon from customer service, too, but the expiration date was Sunday the 23rd I wrote back and they just sent me another coupon, but this one I can use for a standard game or a Collector's Edition My last day of game club is the 28th, I have 1 punch on my card. If I use the coupon this month I will have 4 punches, I could use a CS coupon and borrow a PCC to fill a card, or just let my punches go. Otherwise I can wait and see what else is coming out. I was planning to get Mystery of Ancient's Siren's Call as SE, I figure it will be out soon, but now I could get the CE. Guess I will wait until Thursday and see what's out by then.

Um, Wendy, pcc's no longer give regular punches only bonus punches, remember? That's the reason we all wrote to CS in the first place.
I was planning on using my free game coupon next Monday. Hope it doesn't work and they give mE a coupon code good for a CE. Heck, they don't even have to give me ANY punches, regular or bonus, if they give me a free CE code.

Now I'm totally confused. I thought PCCs just gave one punch and NOT a bonus punch.

From the main Help page:Due to recent changes in the Game Club Punch Card program, redeeming a Punch Card coupon code for a free game will no longer earn a punch on your punch card. You can still get a bonus punch for using your Punch Card coupon code during a Bonus Punch promotion.

I got the coupon code too. I understand why they did it especially since people use the codes from the weekend sales to get more punches for BPM but I just wish there had been a little more notice. I can see the punch codes not working for just BPM but everyday? I think that is kind of weak. At least they gave a week notice with the CCC but since I was able to use the BPM with punch coupons last week and with no notification it changed? Had I known that I would have waited til next monday in hope that 3 other of the games on my list went to SE which they would have. Now I have a half full card at the end of the month. I don't know what Im doing in terms of leaving/staying. I just have so many games to catch up on that leaving wouldn't exact leave me without any games to play LOL I mean I could just let the GCC's build up but I get that feeling of having to check the new game.
When I accepted the coupon I wrote back that I understood why they took it away but that I really expected to get more notice and that I am starting to feel that their company is lacking integrity these days and this is why I hate corporations. They always treat their customers awesome when they first start out but when they strike gold, they start to get all greedy and put their loyal longterm customers out and I don't like that. I know thats what goes on everywhere but I can choose where I decide to buy things from and places that shun their customers don't really appeal to me especially since I used to work retail and I know how it feels working for companies that just treat you as if you are expendable. Ok rant over.

Back to life and game stuff. I finished My kingdom for the princess 2 and sooo wish the nevosoft would release the next 2 for mac players! I mean commeeee onnn! lol I did get Druid Kingdom in the Nevosoft half off sale last week so that helps a little. I am now playing Viking Brothers, I think thats the name lol
Something incredibly horrible happened today and its early but I just want to go to sleep and forget about it for 2 seconds. I woke up to this horrible screeching, whining and howling noise and then my parents screaming and Miles, one of our dogs, whining and Tessa our sweet lil black lab somehow got into the street and got ran over with by a car The good news is that the woman that hit her was able to swerve into the other side of the street and she wasn't speeding and so she missed all of Tessa's organs so there was no internal bleeding or damage done to any organs and she survived this horrible ordeal. However, she did hit her back legs resulting in a broken left leg which already had bad arthritis and 3 of her teeth broke. She went to emergency vet and then to a place that specializes in surgeries because hers was so bad that no one knew exactly what to do to fix it but now shes okay. She lived. Thank god. The other dog, Miles, is a mess without her as they are brother & sister & have never been separated and are almost 8 years old. He's currently curled up on my bed. He saw her get hit. I don't know if dogs get PTSD like us but he's acting pretty upset. Anyways, she comes home on thursday in a doggy splint and she's basically not going to be able to do anything for 6 weeks and it will take like 16 weeks for her to heal completely but I am unbelievably ecstatic that she made it because what I saw before she got taken to the vet looked horrible.
Oh and the woman who hit her & her daughter came back to the house later on to see what happened to her. They were both horrified by what happened as they are dog owners and lovers and she started tearing up saying how sorry she was and I guess she stopped traffic when it happened to save our dog from any other trauma. She wanted to make sure we were okay and to assure us she didn't mean to and I wish I had gotten her address so I could send her a thank you card. I been trying to find her in the phone book since she has a not so common name but I can't seem to find her. But I am sooo thankful today for kind people and miracles. Our girl is going to be okay

Big hugs to you and Tessa. Always devasting when your furpals are in pain. I hope she mends quickly.
I finished up Mystery of the Ancients and started Queens Tales The Beast and the Nightingale. This game is a hoot! I would love to know what drugs they were on when they sat down to do this one. It reminds me of Alice in Wonderland even though it is a classic Beauty and the Beast Tale. I'm really enjoying it. According to some reviews I have the mind of a juvenile, but I'm good with that. I'd recommend trying it out.

Meg, I'm so sorry about your baby. I've never had an animal hit by a car, it must be horrible. So sweet about her brother missing her. I would hate to have to separate my doggies.

My bad, I guess this is going to get some getting used to At least I won't be a member for a few months. I can't imagine getting 6 games in a month without a BOGO, I have most everything that comes up for Daily Deal.
