Gamercards With Status

You may have noticed the slightly updated Gamercards down the right hand margin, courtesy of MyGamerCard.net. I think the information that MGC provide is slightly improved over the xbox.com link and the cards look a bit nicer too.

You'll see that mine contains my XBL status as well. You can get this on yours by following a sign-up procedure that approaches that of joining the Masons.

First off, go to MyGamerCard.net and sign up. They'll do the obligatory send-you-an-email-with-a-validation-link thing in it, so use a real email address. Also - use your proper XBL ID.

Then they send you a Private Message at the Xbox.com Forums (NOT an Xbox Live Message!) to which you reply, or you can log-in to MGC.net to initiate the message yourself. Once your XBL validity has been confirmed in this way you should check your profile at MGC and tick the four boxes at the bottom to enable this data in your gamercard.

This isn't really as arduous as it sounds and easier than I made it, as I didn't realise the PM came on the xbox forum rather than XBL.

MGC.net also have an ace gamerpic scout to help you find out where the cool gamerpics come from, how common they are and also to get a preview of a pack before you buy it on Marketplace.

Thanks for updating these, that's cool. Saves logging into XBL dot com to get people's online status.

So far, I have signed up, completed the first two quests, but I am stuck on the Ram's Horn of Captcha and the guy at the trading post wont sell me any Brigand Armour...

You're good.. I can see your status now.

See, it wasn't that hard and you'll replace the two pints of blood in a matter of days (probably.)

Easier following your destructions, I reckon. Thanks for that, very slick.
