E: 10/11 Chromebook - Slight Effort

sofaloafz

I'm not sure... I've never entered one of these before due to the fact that they won't do it as a random draw.

Many people have stated in these threads before when abneyandteal was posting on here that a random draw is better and seems fairer, but they have not taken it into consideration it seems...

I don't know if others would be happy to do it, as I'm not entirely sure myself. If the prize and competition is legitimate and genuine, it could ruin someone's chance to win if they decide to pull the entire competition...

Having a quick read of the clues, the page in question is showing to me as being last updated on 05 November 2012 10:46:52.

So not only did they ignore what was posted on the last thread containing their competition which was deleted before I could read the any replies but they are picking when they want to start it now regardless of what their terms say.

That's the page!

Well as they have basically voided their own competition I cannot see why the answer cannot be posted, also doing so might actually get their attention even though they are most likely watching this thread

Will edit this post in a minute with the image, (I might even be wrong but looks pretty obvious to me!)

Can someone please explain to me how this image has anything to do with blue links??

It sounds like a money-making scam through the advertising links to me.

Either way - the competition should be voided as the rules state NOT TO SHARE (it doesnt state regardless of whther you think we've made a mistake etc)

And if it is i feel sorry for the people who stick to the rules, but as per theres always somebody who doesnt read or stick to the rules.
If you think there was a problem with this weeks competition you should have EMAILED THEM, (or at least ask your friends in PRIVATE, SO as not to ruin it for the rest of the people:mad:)

(and P.S ''THE BLUE LINKS - THEIR BLUE LINKS!!!!!!!!!!!!! where it says 'dvds', episodes, characters.....NOT THE ADVERTISING LINKS)

I personally have never entered since week 2 and dont intend to ''at the moment''
I have now passed this complete thread to them..

Sparklez30

but the clue is always nice and vague about which blue links isn't it! I don't bother with this one either

vanpopple

Well i guess that is true as most of the advertising links are blue,
Iam in touch with them at the moment and between we are hoping to alter the competition slightly.
1-to make it so EVERYBODY has an equal chance.
2-To make it clearer on what you have to do.
3-To stop any discussion about locations etc on any comping sites, which in turn means that whether you a seasoned comper, or someone who only enters a few times a week you will have the same odds.
There are a couple of bigger ideas which will hopefully make people WANT to play more - even me!
(i stopped simply because i knew that mostly by 8.10am on a monday somebody somewhere will have found it already - and the new idea will stop that - without making it a silly prizedraw where tens of thousands of guesses would be in it thus giving you little chance)

It has been quite hard to alter the comp whilst keeping it fun and fair, but i think we have found a solution.
I will of course update on here first once i hear (hopefully tomorrow)

But just touching on my first post, if the new ideas are put into motion, it would be unwise to share any knowledge.
And although a mistake could have been made this week then regardless of what it is NO details should be put on any comping sites, as the rules do state and have always stated the competition would be voided.

Id love to go into more detail but its not my place to until i get the green light.

(and just had a quick re-read of this thread - the new idea WILL 100% MAKE PAGE CHANGER SOFTWARE TOTALLY USELESS, AS IT WOULD MAKE NOT THE SLIGHTEST BIT OF DIFFERENCE IF YOU FIND IT AT 8AM/2PM/9PM/3AM etc - YET WITHOUT IT BEING A SIMPLE PRIZE DRAW.!?!
