Abound Owners Sweepstakes [MERGED]

I've been playing for over 2 months now almost daily and all I've won are the Weekly and Grand Prize Sweepstakes Entries. Beginning to feel like a sucker!
I won a whopping 1000 Bonvoy Points which we haven't received yet.
 
I just won a shutter fly 8x8 booklet today!

It is possible to win something besides entries.

My 500 points finally posted.

Won Jan.29, final confirmation email Mar.6, points posted Apr.5.

But I cannot use the points. Any time I search, I get this error message: "There is availability at the resort for the day you selected. However, you may not have the number of Points in your account to complete the reservation for this usage year."

I contacted MVC by chat, and they told me they can book using those points from their end. But I cannot book online myself.
I heard you have to call in to use the points.

I’ve still won nothing but sweepstakes entries…

Good luck to everyone for the Upcoming Grand Prize Drawing
 
I’ve got 260 entries. Who’s got me beat?
 
340 + 341 = 681! We have to have two different Vistana logins for our two ownerships, and this allowed us to play twice each day.
 
I tried to play it as it has become a ritual but sad to say it has ended. Won three times, 2000 Bonvoy, 500 MVC, and 1000 Bonvoy points.
 
Played that stupid game every day and bupkis. Apparently I’m the stupid one.
 
We picked up two 1,000 Bonvoy Points, 500 Plus Points and a 2-year II Platinum Membership. Most excited about the 2Year platinum II as that will save us about $280 over the next couple years. So far we are still just waiting on the Plus Points to show up. AND I am still waiting for the email letting me know I was the grand prize winner!!!
