    I'm getting an error connecting to the database too. Maybe this is the new site we've been hearing about being put up?

    for anyone who ordered business cards from vistaprint via pb, how long was it before they arrived. I have had an e-mail to say they have been shipped but wondered how long it was after that.

    I ordered some business cards and they came within a couple of days of getting the dispatch notice. I also got my 100 ppoints really quickly. have heard of others on this site who haven't had a good service from Vistaprint though so maybe they are very busy at the moment???

    I got this:

    I guess something is going on. I want to get my quizzes done, how inconvenient! Perhaps they are upgrading to the new site??? :confused:

    hmmm now that there is only one instant 10points questions left and on average 2 clickthroughs a week there a very little point in using pigsback anymore :( Espically since I have answer all the quizs (and entered the crosswords) since last November and have never won a thing....
    I think that Pigsback have been doing their statistics.

    There may be some truth to the argument that too many people (from PB's point of view) have been taking the points and not buying through the site.

    I think also, they will be looking at how many visits are made to the site and how long the visitor actually spends there. The change from points quizzes to draw quizzes will mean that more people will make more daily visits to the site, possibly for longer, and therefore statistically increase the chances of a purchase.

    Of course, if it backfires, and people stop visiting the site because there's no more free money, then they will have to re-evaluate the policy.

    Does anyone know if PB's Annual Report is available online anywhere? It would be interesting to see the accounts and Chairman's report.
