Hot Damn. I love Jim Beam. Just can't wait until the next rounds of quizes come out.
 
I only have 400 points. I read the FAQ, and anyone know how do I get to do an online survey to get 20 more points to get a Level III prize?
 
Under the how to earn points
4. Entrants earn 10 points for each new person they refer to the website (the new person must register, identify the person who referred him/her, and complete the Master Bourbon Ambassador Course).


Send a couple friends, yourself a couple referals. I haven't found the online survey.
 
You can earn more points by logging back in and you will see there are additional courses.

Also have your pop up blocker off for an extra 20 points offer
 
how?

how are u all able to do this? i can't get by the signup page cause they keep asking me for a registration code :banghead:
 
I think the registration number it needs is in the image to the right near the bottom of the page.
 
Its unavailable now. Page is down for upgrades. ...or so they say... hmmmmm.....
 
I cannot get the popup survey to show (even with popup blocker off), and these seem to be the only courses available to me, and I've completed them all.

They got me too Rain. I wonder how many people were 'randomly selected'. They're probably hoping the majority of people will be too lazy to bother so they won't have to fill the orders.
 
I never heard anything back from them, but that's ok sometimes it happens
