Hi everyone, just checking you all ok, i`ll be back to my full running soon.

Not many people was eating the cupcakes asked why and they asked could they take them home with them, bit horrified as i thought they were going to throw them away, and then showed them i`d more so they ate those 24 and they got 22 to share between them later.

off to cook breakfast for them all.:eek:

For those of you new to Toluna, do you know that you can get 100 points for answering an opinion question with 80 words or more? Also, if you create an opinion question, you get points everytime someone puts a response.
I was thinking that there must be a way we could write opinions and respond to each others, thereby getting points ourselves for answering and also helping each other get more points by answering the opinions we create.

This is a bit of info about opinions copied from the Toluna page:
Popularity of opinion topics created:
Members are awarded points for opinions left on topics they created; the more opinions are posted on your topics, the more points you earn.

• Opinions 80 words or longer: when you post an opinion 80 words or longer, you will earn 100 points. Points for opinions are awarded every few weeks, after they have been reviewed by the Toluna moderators in order to ensure they are not duplicates and that no other form of cheating was attempted.
• There is a limit of 5,000 points per month on points awarded for opinions
• The content of the opinion you leave is strictly personal; in no case whatsoever can your opinion come from another member or website. If we determine that a member has copied opinions from other sources, or that they have posted the same opinion on multiple topics, their account will be subject to cancellation and their points will be forfeit.

I'm off to investigate it further.......

I found the info below on Toluna. It seems we can 'follow' each other on Toluna (sounds a bit stalkery!) and then we get notified when each other posts new opinions. I thought, if anyone was interested, we could set up a list of our Toluna IDs and follow each other to help each other earn a few more points.

I can't see anywhere in the rules that says this is not allowed, but just incase (anyone remember the Dooyoo saga?;)) I don't think we should post Toluna usernames on here. If you are interested please message me your Toluna name and I will compile a list which I will then message to everyone interested.

I find Toluna takes quite a while to build up the points so hopefully this should help speed it up a bit


Following Toluna members

We all have our favourite Toluna members- members whose polls, topics and opinions are of greater interest to us; the easiest way to keep up with your favourite members and their content is to follow them:

When you browse content on the site and you come across an interesting poll, topic or opinion, make sure to click on the creating member’s username- this will redirect you to their public profile page. On each member’s public profile page you will find the “Follow” button (it appears under the member’s ranking and social level, on the upper right corner of the page). Once you choose to follow a member, they will appear on your profile page; this means you now have quick and easy access to your favourite members- a great way to keep up with their latest content!

• You can stop following members at any time- simply click on their username and on their profile page click “Remove”.
• You can view the complete list of members you are following as well as members who are following you on your profile page.

Brilliant Idea Nicky. Will Pm you in a sec. Are you sure your ok with this, it's not too much trouble? Thanks for helping

Savvy - brilliant idea about the spreadsheet, and listing all the surveys on there. :beer:

Legendmum - you've got some fab totals - Well done, you ought to be very proud of yourself. :j


I tried to join survey Network last night, only to be told I had joined in September some time. There were loads off surveys sat there waiting for me to complete - All out of date. :mad:

For everyone else, if you downloaded the spreadsheet on page 1, there is a third page to it, you could list the survey sites you have joined there, and then transfer your earnings over to the first page when the cheques and vouchers start coming in.

Savvy - the sales this year are useless - (except Boots and I was there on day one AND day two ) Apart from Boots I've done all my sales shopping online, much easier doing it from home, and there's a better selection.

Hiya Susan. Good luck on Bingoport - I hope you win xxx

Rufus - I've gone back to maximiles too - I think I had 800 points in there. I can't see where to do surveys though.

Goodmorning everyone who I haven't mentioned. How are you doing? It does seem daunting at first, but it will easily become part of your routine, and you'll be fine. I promise. :A

So, this bingo lark!?! I put it on 18 Auto and let it run for the five games and then I do it again - so, in effect I play 10 games on 18 - is that correct or I am still over playing? I've somehow managed to write 10 posts this morning so at least thats one thing done

elysia2003

You've got it Poohspals. That's all there is to it!!!

The odd survey is available now and again and that boosts your points up.

Once, you have 10,000 points AND have played your 18 games all week, you can then redeem. If it's before 10pm on a Wednesday you will get the money on the Thursday. If you miss it, it will be the following Thursday.

Right - just have a little bingo to catch up on but i've done the dreaded posts!
