I'll post about this here, I guess.

I've got 18 free invites to the "experimental" Lockerz.com community. It's in a closed invite stage right now, but it goes public later this month. It's an advertising and marketing scheme from a Co-Executive of Amazon, they have a deal with big companies in the electronics, gaming, and fashion industries to prevent "brand trends".

Basically, you sign up and earn "pntz" to get free stuff. There's a mini game one-time only that you play to get some. The rest you earn by logging in every day and answering a question like "What is your favorite food?" or "What is your favorite professional sport?", et cetera. You also get points for inviting people. The full stage of the site is planned to have a YouTube like community, blogging, and a Facebook-like community.

It's the real deal, I've already gotten enough points for a video game or something, and I have friends who redeemed theirs for products earlier in the closed testing and they got them... nice and free.

Anyway, if you want an invitation to it, PM me and I'll send it out. Don't post your emails in the thread... don't want to spam it up. I figured most of you wolfwebbers would have had it by now, but maybe I'm wrong.

sorry but I don't really take people who spell with a 'z' instead of an 's' seriously.

I'm sure they don't take people who spell "o's" with zeroes either, but the point is hardly "if you respect them", but rather, "if you're willing to let them give you free shit" from iTouches to cameras to HDTVs to video games and external hard drives and laptops and handbags... et cetera.

EDIT: IMPORTANT, please send your E-MAIL to me in the PM, if that wasn't already apparent. It's kind of necessary.

wow, this reeks of 55yr old white corporate dudes trying to "reach out" to the gamer online community

Uh, duh. I did mention it was run by some ex-Amazon executive in cooperation with major brands.

They're giving away free shit, I don't care if it's a bunch of old white guys. Welcome to corporate America.
