(likely also need a yes/no field that is set to yes when the new customer enters a referral code the first time, to prevent them from entering/changing multiple codes and handing out multiple awards (and it should also likely check against the user selected referral code to make sure he isn't giving himself points by saying he is referring himself).
If you could make this module do this, my boss would be in hog heaven, as it would be exactly the functionality he is looking for in both a referral program AND a rewards program.
(I am only on page 8 in reading this thread -- so I don't know if you have anything for this yet or not)
