    i think the lack of click throughs this week is PB's way of balancing the high number of points they gave away during the Easter period.....:confused:

    There's no such policy in place I'm glad to say - it's just that we have put clickthroughs live that some people may have already gotten - remember, MSE posters are among our most active users...

    There's a minimum of 6 clickthroughs per week. Others may come occasionally to match campaigns we do for clients, but we promise 6 a week - now that's 6 in total, regardless of whether you've already clicked...

    So for example, since Monday there's been 6 for

    Goldshield
    Dabs
    More th>n
    Carphone Warehouse
    !!!!!!
    National Lottery


    Bank Holiday on Monday so next round of clickthroughs on Tuesday. If I get the chance I'll come on and let you know what they are (probably half an hour or som before you've already posted them anyways... ;) )

    Talk to you soon :)

    Does anyone know where there's a UK chart archive online? :confused:

    I bet piggypoints on U2 entering the UK chart at 15+ on 9th April and when I checked the BBC website that week it listed them at no 19, so I thought I'd won :T but I never got my points :huh: I emailed pigback and they say U2 entered the chart at "3 or 2" so they're not even sure but they're not giving me my piggypoints :(

    I found this for the following weeks chart (16/04/06) if it helps your case:

    Highest Climbing Single:
    Mary J Blige and U2 shoot up from No.19 to No.2.

    That's probably why someone got confused about the entry number.

    Well, must admit I thought I'd be flamed for my comments re the Thanks issue. I agree with what nearly all have said: keep the button, ditch the total.

    Regret I didn't understand the one-liner about slow clicking fingers. I like crosswords, but that was too cryptic for me!

    I've had 5 clickthroughs since the beginning of last week (17th). 4 on the 18th (including the blackboard) and one today (Flora). I'd suggest the 6 per week thing isn't working.

    Because you've already previously clicked on them perhaps?

    so if we have clicked on them in previous weeks then they are not new click throughs.
    so i feel that is unfair to present pigsback members if only newbies are getting them......

    so either give us 6 NEW click throughs a week so everyone can benefit or be honest and tell us that they are old ones being recirculated!!!!!!
    apart from this pigsback rocks....
    thanks

    They've always doen it this way molly. They like to encourage the new members with lots of clickthrough, but don't worry about us old timers.
