How long do you have to play Conan until you can craft anything in the desert? Most weekly are reasonable but with mmo…

I used the Rewards Hunter guide on youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e_SLXjO8y5E
It doesn't take very long because you can craft stuff right off the jump, you just have to gather the materials. So maybe 5-10 minutes.
Just crafted 16 objects (8 different types just in case) and didn't pop…
Edit: it did show in the app tho.
Yep only last 90 days. I believe however that you can use it to preorder a game then cancel preorder to extend it another 3 months.
Out of curiosity, why did you use your points to redeem a gift card if you didn't have anything to purchase immediately?
may least in my case it's cheaper to do the auto redeem than it is to wait for something else to come up.
It was excitement, to be honest, and I wasn't aware at the time of the 90 day use.
Well, I understand the auto redeem because it's cheaper than redeeming the same amount normally. It's why I use it.
Oh Ok.
Shit, today's lighting speed quiz actually only gave you points for right answers! I was so used to just clicking through as fast as I could that I didn't notice. I thought the This or That ones were annoying enough, but if I'm going to have to actually use my brain on all of the daily set items now that will suck.
I can't get today's lightning quiz to work. The quiz doesn't pop up.
That happens to me too on my iPhone. I opened it on an older Android device to check though and it worked there.
Had the same issue, was able to bring the quiz up on my phone. Try that.
Yeah, found that out the hard way. Only got 30/40 because I goofed up one.
Yeah, I found that I had to do this as well. The language of whether or not my streak was intact for today wasn't really clear, so I tried on my phone just in case. Sure enough, I got some points for the quiz.
Switched from Edge to back Opera because the former is an absurd battery suck, and within 3 days let my 180 something day streak lapse, which I figured would happen. Oh well. At least my phone lasts a good 30-40% longer than it did before with heavy browsing.
I guess I did yesterday's Game Pass dailies too close to midnight, as they haven't refreshed. Hopefully that hasn't made the 1000 pt. Quest Completionist unachievable, but should be good with 10 days needed without any more skips/issues (25/45).
I've also noticed that the typical daily recipe search no longer adds to your search count. At least that's how it's been in my case this week.

Ah, thanks. Never really get a chance to check early in the day, so it took me aback a bit.
So I'm in Australia and there was a rewards task where you punch the card then play one of the top 10 games from a list and get an achievement to earn 500points.
I punched it, then I installed one of the games (Fable anniversary) then got the first cheevo in the game. Nothing happened. I can't interact with the reward second step (it just takes you to the list of games) and it hasn't acknowledged I've finished it.
Is this a known problem where x360 achievements won't sync with the quest?

I bought a game in the new sales before a punch card appeared, which is automatic (doesn't require activating, it just tracks what you spend on the sales) but obviously it didn't track the game I purchased before. I probably won't buy anything more but if I got that one tracked I may think about it (spend a bit more and get the 4k points in return). Has someone had this happen before and is there a workaround to get the previous purchase to count towards the punch card?
I also got an achievement for Fable Anniversary and didn't get the card to pop. I thought I'd leave it a day to see if it works but upon trying again this morning I still got nothing. Decided to get an achievement on Gears Tactics and the 500 points unlocked immediately.
My friend also had this issue, told him to get an achievement from the Master Chief Collection instead as there's 100's on there and quite a few take less than 10 minutes to get (the one I went for on the 343 Guilty Spark level took less than 1 minute).
They often don't count even after the punch card appears. I've actually refunded purchases and bought them again in a few cases. Sometimes that works, sometimes not, but it may be worth a shot.
It's weird bc it counted towards the daily and weekly quests
Thanks for the tip, used that to get the rewards top 10 punch card on xcloud.
That's what I thought. Well I don't think it's worth it even if I still haven't started the game. Probably won't buy anything else for now.

What parts of the rewards program need parity across countries?
Like getting points for searches/using bing and the edge browser. I also hear about these quizzes, where they at?
Wow, didn't know they don't offer that part of the rewards program in some countries where they offer it.
Yeah, it's quite the bummer, actually. I'd even download a seperate bing app on my phone just for the search points if possible, but that's not avaliable here I'm afraid.
Anyone know if Microsoft Rewards doesn't like British Summer Time? Anytime we get close to midnight and try to do my dailies, they just refuse to go through - several times I have left it to the end of the day and lost a streak because of it.
I quite often forget and do them late (past 11pm) and not had any problems. But the app is pretty trash - it has screwed me over many a time and killed streaks for no good reason and will no doubt do it again. Just got to take the rough with the smooth!
It's just between midnight and 1am where it doesn't work during BST
Now I understand many things. Here in Spain that happens too (and in all regions, I suppose). They should fix that hour of the death.
