Yes, the 20 power up points was the email invitation I received, never have seen the 50 point one to participate in the webinar.

[gerelmx]

You really should not give the answers. This is about getting people interested in these cruises , not cheating! I did mine the proper way

@Sayuil

If you read the description of the ports you will find all the answers easily, I do not agree that the answers are posted in the forum

That's how I found all the answers, I just posted these answers just so that if someone is unable to find answer to some questions as some of them have been worded to trick people like the one for the Trail length.

If people READ the articles, they will find the answers.

[bikerunner]

Easy two CC points.  The answers only took a few minutes to find.  And actually the Slovenia port is really interesting will do more research into.  Not on the bucket list yet but might be an add on for another I have.  

[Fouremco]

Quick and easy to complete, and I knew that each of my answers was correct. Not that I didn't trust the posted answers, but...

[gerelmx]

This trivia allowed me to know more about Alaska by reading about the ports, I have in my plans to book a cruise in the Eclipse for May 2022 after the Millennium B2B (Panama Canal and Pacific Coast)

[TLG40]

I liked reading about the ports and answering the questions. 

I think it is an interesting and fun way to keep involved with Celebrity while there isn't any cruising.

It's a nice thing to do, people just like to complain about everything.

Perhaps you should not have quoted the post when you feel that way.

Yes, I agree with Sayuil that there were trick questions like the one about the length of the trail which I got wrong the first time.  I used to have a teacher who said READ the question!!  i could just hear him again.

I thought the last question was stupid.  I know in the write up it stated the time and not the miles but doesn't the time depend on how fast the vehicle is going?

I do so hope the cruising famine doesn't last long enough for me to reach Zenith this way..........the answer to that one is forever...................

I can’t believe that someone would provide answers on this site.  It’s the thin end of the wedge. Captains Club quiz followed by SAT questions, then the GRE‘s, and LS A.T.. Really where does it stop.

Answers are posted here every quiz, sometimes even multiple forum members post the answers.  Personally, I'd be more surprised if the answers weren't posted by someone.

Only just been sent the email by Celebrity, I can’t understand why we have to wait so long in UK, but at least I do eventually get them.

As always, thanks for providing the link!

[ipeeinthepool]

Thanks for the link, I wasn't expecting anything this week.

[If only]

Thank you for providing the link, we are Elite Plus & very rarely receive the Power up points no matter how many times we have signed up.

Does anyone else get the feeling that once we've done all this silly stuff they'll raise the number of points we need to reach the next level?  😉

I don't think so, but I do think that once we start sailing again this program will fade away.  Its done something to keep people interested, talking, doing some free advertising and in some cases learning about new places, but the points I've earned so far are way less than I would have earned if I would have been sailing so they've already delayed my ability to reach the next level.  If they raise those markers it would be like a double penalty.
