On March 26th I put in two AA entries of a single TCredit each. They completed boarding same day but for some reasons I decided not to claim the constellation prizes immediately. I calculated that, based on the 7-day limit, I should still be able to claim them by April 2nd.

I usually make sure I obtained 20 VP daily so I could get an extra Daily Grand entry. Come April 2nd though, when I claimed constellation prizes for one of those auctions, they included 10 VP. I would get the other 10 VP from Todo List actions so I didn’t bother claiming the prizes for the second auction, forgetting that the chance to claim would lapse that day.

And so today that second auction no longer showed up for me to claim. My blunder then dawned on me. I checked the flight log for it and saw what I lost: See that image above.
