That would be me!  Every day before my vacation, I’d log into mountaindewgamefuel.com site and rack up as many points as I could.  I considered it my daily quests =) and it paid off.

Without any notification, email, whatever.. well my name was listed in the official list of winners for the mouse drawing I had entered for on 07/05/09 but I never checked there each day to see if I’d won.  I always figured they would just send me an email saying as much.. but no.  They just sent me my new Razer Deathadder gaming mouse in the mail!

..

It’s not the fanciest-smanchsiest mouse out there.. but it’s a great shape and size for me and the texture of the top is.. well hard to describe.. like a really really fine suede type buffed feel to it even though it’s plastic.  For free it’s an awesome mouse =)

The amount of gold you can earn per day from click through stuff has steadily increased… right now it’s sitting at 800 gold (points) per day.  I found a nice set of links for all the click throughs so I don’t have to actually go to all the facebook/twitter/myspace/other partner websites/etc to get the click points.  There’s about 450 points of videos that take about a minute to click on all of too.

The chance of winning a Mountain Dew t-shirt or a messenger bag are pretty high.. but I spent most of my points on entries for the hardware stuff.. mouse, speakers, keyboards and a 100 or so for the Alienware laptop they give away one of each day too.  There’s usually 2 or 3 million points entered for the laptop though so I don’t expect my 100 to win that ever.

I had resisted merging my warcraft account with a battle.net account.. but I did for the promotions and the battlebot pet/fuel.  I figured that it wouldn’t be long before they required it anyway.  The login trouble that plagued so many the last few days was only striking those that had not merged their account with a b.net account yet.  A change from the early days of the merged accounts that had initially had login issues.
