Pretty bad points. I probably could come up with better points than this. For instance number 6 had a pretty stupid example. If anything they should have used the pathetic free points that they give you for your birthday.
"MyAchievements is split into three tiers of rewards. Tier 1 is for any Gold subscriber with a Gamerscore of at least 3,000 points. You will be entitled to a birthday gift during the month of your birthday worth a grand total of $0.25. Tier 2 eligibility requires a Gamerscore of at least 10,000 points. As well as the birthday gift you will receive a 1% refund on purchases using Microsoft Points. The only purchases that excludes is buying an Xbox Live Gold subscription or actual Microsoft Points.
Tier 3 is the top level and requires a Gamerscore of at least 25,000 points. Such dedication will again earn you the birthday gift, but ups your Microsoft Points refund to 2%.
The refund is a nice extra for anyone who has a high Gamerscore, but the low percentage means it’s going to take a while to accrue enough free Microsoft Points to buy anything. For example, spending 1,200 points with a Tier 2 Gamerscore will earn you just 12 points, where as a Tier 3 Gamerscore gets you 24 points."

That promotion is pretty pathetic when you compare that to Club Nintendo where you get coins for registering systems, games, and doing surveys which then can be used on Nintendo items or games (most games cost 100-200 coins). I have gotten at least $40 dollars worth of games from Club Nintendo since they started offering games.
