Hey guys, as you saw, the 8000 point prize was the button set! Instead of a 12,000 point prize, I've got another 10,100 point prize (button #9) and there's one more 15,000 point prize (another button) coming before the end of the game on the 26th. The store will stay open until September 18th, so you'll have plenty of time to spend your points!

Hey Buttercupsmiley, sounds like you've said what needs to be said! Why don't you lay off on this post until someone else comments. If you make a bunch of comments in a row without giving others a chance to comment, your comments might get deleted. If you're looking for quick ways to earn points, try rating items or reading posts around aadl.org! Thanks for playing.... now take a break! =)

Hope you guys all saw the shop is [http://play.aadl.org/shop|now open]! And belal, while I applaud your optimism, I can assure you that nothing like an iPod will be found in the summer game shop at any price. The big point value prizes are cool, symbolic, and more than a little bit silly, but they will be scaled appropriately to your achievement. As an aside, if you complete the paper teen game, you can be entered in a drawing that includes an iPad, an iPod, and a Nintendo 3DS; just visit the desk at AADL for details on that!

Thanks for asking sdunav! The Summer Game Shop is online only, and you'll specify at which branch you'd like to pick up your order. Then you'll get a notification when it's ready! Let us know if you have any other questions.

Can we still earn points? Or is it closed?
You can still earn points!
You can still earn points! The Summer Game goes on all summer long; you can earn points until Sunday, August 28th. The Shop will also stay open until mid-September to allow you to spend your points on premiums while supplies last.
And koolfish, at today's launch, you'll only be able to place orders for your main player, but we will roll out orders for extra players as soon as possible, hopefully tomorrow. Thanks for your patience, and thanks for playing!

My kids and I are all on the same account. Do we simply 'cash in' our points one at a time when they accumulate enough points for an item when
logged on to their account or see their name and point summary?
Thanks -- we are enjoying this program!
Yay!! I'm excited!!

Is it possible that you run
Is it possible that you run out of some items (so that we should be sure to redeem early) or is that not really a concern?
Well, adimarzo, it is
Well, adimarzo, it is possible, and all items are while supplies last, but you'll be able to see exactly how many of each item are left when browsing the shop, so you'll know if supplies are running low on something you're interested in. But there are a LOT of premiums in stock, thousands and thousands as you'll see later today, so you should have all the information you need to make your decisions about when to redeem your points. Thanks again for your feedback, and for playing the Summer Game!
Thanks! That's very helpful.

I bet that the 100,000 point prize is a badge for earning 100,000 summer game points, and you get a 200,000 point bonus. You now have whatever you had, +100,000, so you can buy the rest of the items, and something else would be in it. AADL Watch? AADL MP3? iPod with AADL paint or cover/case? iPod Touch 4th generation with AADL paint or case? iPad with AADL paint or case? YOUR NAME IN THE AADL HALL OF FAME(That rhymes)? The prizes get bigger and bigger.
Note: AADL is welcome to use my ideas.
