It says:

"All online training participants who completed 10 of the 15 holiday modules, by midnight PST on December 12th, will receive the "Holiday Training Prize Package".

But then it also says there are 1423 left. Maybe there's still time.

 

[WhiteMouse]

I even visited the site yesterday, (since i received that xp pro), but missed this one.

 

[TerriLeLuv]

i tried the 1st of the quizes, and it came up there is no such microsoft page, when i tried to submit my answers

 

[amdmaxx]

training = quizzes?

 

[SpotDancer]

I didnt notice the expiration date of 11/12, and completed 10 of the quizzes. After each quiz I received a message that said........"you will be entered into all of the current giveaways."

I have no idea whether or not I will get this package. I can hope though!!

Thanks for the post, even though I seem to have been a little late in reading it!

<< training = quizzes? >>



Yes, you read/"study" the module and then take a quiz on what you just read. It's not very difficult and you can retake it until you pass.

At 5:50pm EST, there were 1371 packages of software still available.


As the site says:



<< All online training participants who completed 10 of the 15 holiday modules, by midnight PST on December 12th, will receive the "Holiday Training Prize Package". The packages will start shipping on December 19th. You will receive an email message with tracking information when your package has shipped. Please allow 2-3 weeks for delivery.


Wait, there's more! After this initial shipment, there will be weekly shipments while supplies last. See details below.

Pass any 10 of the 15 holiday training quizzes and receive a Holiday Prize Package that includes all of the following prizes! >>




So get to it and grab a package..........

 

[SpotDancer]

I actually took eleven quizzes, and for me unbelievably, PASSED them all!!!!!...........:Q:Q

However, I didnt see where it said, "WAIT, THERE'S MORE!" etc. Where is that?

Edit: Whooooooooooooppppppppsssssss..........I found it!...........there are still well over a thousand "prizes" left.

RE - RE-EDIT: This is a great post Munkeeboi. For such a little bit of time taking those funky "tests" we get all of that stuff? Oh, yeah.......make my day!!!.........thanks for the post!!!

You might also want to check out that x-box site on the left. You take quizzes for points over there to later redeem for X-box accessories.

Also, Answers can be found on a similarly titled thread on f*twallet if you are too lazy to take the test yourself.

Good luck

 

[Viper22]

Im not eligible for the XBox stuff unfortunatly since i dont work for a company that sells it but for anyone who does its worth it.
