Anybody else get this? The quiz was super easy, I got all of the questions right

Dear jarodremrey,

We want to know what you know about the PokerStars VIP Club, so we're giving you the chance to put your VIP Club knowledge to the test and win VIP Player Points (VPPs)!

You could win 3,000 VPPs which automatically makes you a GoldStar VIP. All you have to do is correctly answer a few questions.

The PokerStars VIP Club Quiz should take no more than 5 minutes of your time, and if you score well, here's what you could win:

75% of questions correct will get you 1,200 VPPs (SilverStar VIP status)
95% of questions correct will get you 3,000 VPPs (GoldStar VIP status)

I dont think they're giving away fpps just the vpps to make me a vip but I dont know.. either way it is pretty sweet deal... hopefully I'll take down that 100k monthly!

#6 13th July 2009, 9:27 PM

Weird. But cool if true. It'd be nice to get this.

#7 13th July 2009, 9:29 PM

Oh, haha just checked my inbox. Finally got one of these offers. Should have the multiplier on your fpps also Jarod, that's worth something. Also, silverstar+ can take advantage of fpp bonuses that bronze cannot (if they offer them again) I'm going to have to study for this quiz.

#8 13th July 2009, 9:35 PM

I just shot off an email requesting an offer for a survey of some sort. I've been a member there for years and can't break bronze star, and how I may not be able to finish my run to silverstar this month, and school starts next month so I'lll never get it. lol

Hello Roy,

Thanks for your email.

The quiz you are referring to, is offered randomly to players by our
Marketing Team. Unfortunately the Support Team cannot offer this quiz and
its benefits on request.

Please let us know if we can assist you further, and thanks for playing
at PokerStars!

Regards,

EddieC
PokerStars Support Team

Oh well

What's the email addy your offer was sent from? Marketing@pokerstars?

They said the SUPPORT team can't help, but they didn't say anything about marketing

#14 13th July 2009, 9:57 PM

When you say checked your inbox do you mean in your e-mail or is there someplace on PS that I'm not finding? Looked around and nothing stood out.

#18 14th July 2009, 12:00 AM

Got one of these today!! Yea!! Got all questions right and will get 3000 vpp-gold staus. Sweet.

#19 14th July 2009, 12:03 AM

It sound like a great deal I just wonder when they say selected radomly what they really mean by that. I am with the people who have played ther for years and never received any of these offers.

#20 14th July 2009, 7:45 PM

I also got 1 and answered all questions correctly see you at the 100k freeroll I will root for you others to finish 2nd,3rd,4th

#21 14th July 2009, 9:53 PM

#22 15th July 2009, 5:42 AM

WTF, I want this quiz.

#23 15th July 2009, 4:18 PM

Its good that they sent u the quiz. They never sent me anything. I'm going to email them and try to see if I can get the quiz or the $5 that they use to give.

#24 15th July 2009, 8:44 PM

You got 20 questions right.

Congratulations! You have answered enough questions correctly to win VPP rewards from PokerStars. Once you are awarded your points, you will receive a confirmation mailing.

Not gonna happen, Emporer IX already tried it lol

#26 15th July 2009, 11:26 PM

I hate Stars... I'm going to get gold star for the first time this month after 2 months at silver and now they just give it away for free... The prize pool to the 100K is going to be so diluted that it may not even be worth playing...

#27 17th July 2009, 3:01 AM

It's an open-book quiz using the VIP Program overview. 20 questions. Took me 10 minutes after spending 5 minutes reading the overview. YAY Gold Status!! (Until August 31st.)

#28 17th July 2009, 4:12 AM

I got it too, it was super easy. I got all the questions right. 3000 points will be nice!!

#29 17th July 2009, 4:22 AM

#30 17th July 2009, 4:29 AM
