RC Twitter issue today

Options
Quite a few of my daily RC tweets didn't work today. Gleam was fine, but with about half of the ordinary RC ones. It wouldn't let me do the tweets and said I had already tweeted them. I got through by altering the tweet very slightly.

I don't know why. I definitely hadn't tweeted any of them since fairly early yesterday.

    Me too, but Gleam is also saying " something went wrong" on some comps
  • Me too, I c&p'd some tweets and that worked for a little while. My gleam entries were absolutely fine tho.

    Same here and was getting the message about tweets being too long that weren't quite often too.

    Thanks Bluebella for emailing them :A

    I've just gone through today's, and it did happen again, but just for two or three of the daily tweets. I'm assuming that the ones I slightly doctored yesterday were fine today. If that's true, then at least it means we can alter them a little bit and they should go through. Then the next the original tweet should work. Does that make sense?

    Where it wouldn't let me tweet, I added an extra space somewhere, or did something like changing "I've" to "I have".

    Tomorrow, if the error is still happening, I'll make a note of which ones, to start looking for any patterns.

    I'm still not having any issues with the Gleam ones - so far.

    For the faulty ones, I have altered the text a little too - added a full stop or took away a space. No reply back from Rafflecopter yet but if and when I do hear from them I will update you. Hope they get the problem sorted before the Advents - I remember they made changes just before the Advents last year and it caused havoc! :eek:

    I don't think its a rafflecopter issue but a twitter issue, I have some tweets that I copy and paste every day and it's not allowing those either

    Still happening for me today - just with raffles and not gleam. I was in agreement with Ikkle - ie thinking it must be a twitter problem, but if it was, then surely gleam would be effected too?

    I emailed rafflecopter a few days ago but haven't received a reply. Is this problem still happening to anyone else?

    It has happened on a couple of Rafflecopters, but Gleam is now fine.
