What FNMs free?, welll in my area (Meddellin, Colombia Hurray!!) its like $1.50 (3.000 Colombian Pesos) with Boosters for 1st and 2nd and teh 3rd and 4th share a booster. and they open up a booster and each player in teh FNM except the 1 and 2 gets to pick one card
oh and i also have my Rewards already sent.... i only needed 3 more tourneys to get another token
I checked mine and it hasn't been sent out yet for some reason. Might be for a lack of points but I'm pretty sure I have enough for at least a minimal mailing...if not, more for next time
Maybe only the European ones have been sent so far that everyone can get them at roughly the same time. Mine haven't been sent yet and I'm getting a foil and 5 textless/token packs

Because we seem to see repetitive posting in this thread asking about the same thing, I thought I would post some pointers for those who read this thread to consider before posting.
When you log into your Ratings and Rankings page here, you now have an option under the My Links section on the right hand side of the page that allows you to check your My Rewards status for your Player Rewards.
If you have questions about how many textless cards and/or premium cards you should be receiving you can also check here for more information on the Player Rewards program.
Remember that only sanctioned tournaments that are turned in and reported by the tournament organizer count towards your Player Rewards.
Here is a list of frequently asked questions to help you out as well.
Hm, my Rewards haven't been Sent yet. Just Current.
Looks like from my last sending, I should have...12 tourneys to now, total of 22. 2 Rewards, 2 Old Rewards, and 1 Textless Foil. That sound about right?
When do they send the rewards? Is there a place I can see how many promos I should be receiving? And lets say the new card is a damnation, when would we know?

Thats what mine says, so i should be getting 1 foil?
Hmm, this is absolutely unacceptable. If you were a homeless man, and someone promised to give you a free sandwich at 3 o'clock, and 3 o'clock rolls around and he hasn't shown up yet, are you going to be happy? Well, it's about 5 o'clock now, and Wizards still hasn't shown up with my damn sandwich.
We have every right to be upset. They really dropped the ball this time.

From what I've heard rewards are sent in alphabetical order. Also, in the US there's the Thanksgiving delay. I expect that alot of people will be getting their rewards on friday and saturday. I dunno about the efficiency of the postal system of other countries but in the US its fairly reliable.

This is a joke, right? Right? Buehler?
If you're a homeless man...you have no right to be upset if someone offers you something FREE and doesn't deliver...how about you go out and WORK for it.
By the same token...you get what you pay for. And seeing as how you didn't pay for ANYTHING with MPR Promos (not even the lousy shipping...cheapskate!)..well...there you have it. They'll get here when they get here, but saying WotC "dropped the ball" on something they're handing out for FREE...just because you played (not even placed mind you, simply PLAYED) in a few tournaments..gimme a break.

Well... not quite. Sure, we haven't paid anything for the player rewards cards directly, but Wizards and the DCI have promised us these cards as part of supporting their game. We pay money for the cards with the understanding that these promos will be offered for playing. They now have a responsibility to follow through with their promise or risk dissatisfying us, their customers.
But on the other hand, I don't remember them saying they would send them out at any specific time. I'm a little irritated that they are so late, but I'm happy as long as I get them.
hey i live down here in South America and i already have the MPR Sent
I'm assuming that he saw them listed as Sent on the Player Rewards page and not that he got them. Am I assuming right?
About paying/free stuff issue: these are rewards for playing in events that you pay for. So in a sense I am paying for them whenever I enter in an event. Wizards should have the decency of shipping on time and if planning changes to inform the clientele on what is going on
That's what i meant. thanks Good&Evil. and i think that no one has the MPR in the mail yet....maybe as some people have pointed out we may get them next week

You are paying for prize support so the store holding the tournament can get there cut by paying out the packs at MSRP. No one has to charge and wizards never sees a direct cut of the money. One store here in town has free FNM's and the only prize is the FNM foils (WHICH WIZARDS ALSO GIVE OUT FOR FREE). And all the website says is late fall which gives them until Dec. 21. People have just decided to get all butt hurt when it doesn't come when THEY expect it. The MPR mailing have been screwed up bad before too. Remember the outrage when they mailed out way too many foil ***'s...oh wait, yeah.
Everyone here just likes looking a gift horse in the mouth.
although, someone may have just edited it or they must have had a source for this.. either way, we don't know for sure yet and just hope our mpr's arrive..

What you are failing to realize is that if we didn't play in these tournaments, the stores wouldn't sell packs, the stores would go under(well maybe not, but there would be some).
Everyone makes money on these tournaments, Wizards cause they get to sell more packs to the retailers, who sells them to the stores. So indirectly, we do pay for them.
I'm not one of the ones saying that Wizards has to give them to us, and all pissy cause they are late. I'm very grateful that they do this.
But you can't say that they don't make money on these. Wizards would make less money if we bought boxes instead of packs.
OKAY Mr. Bulgaria. Could you please let us know what you got for the Foil? Cause there hasn't been any confirmation.
