Twitter recently changed how you can RT a post you can do the normal Retweet but now you can also RT with a quote.
The question I have is regarding comps that ask you to RT and reply with an answer. does anybody RT the Tweet then send separate tweet to reply or use the quote tweet facility to answer the question?

I've just assumed the retweet inc. comment goes to your followers & reply goes the host of the comp. So I do both0

I doubt even most of the promoters know. I'm sure many of them actually still mean reply when they say RT (just wrongly trying to use the lingo) much like the ones that say RT and follow... on facebook.
I did see a comp yesterday though that specifically asked for a quote retweet...0 -
When you do a quote rt it doesn't colour in the rt button iyswim so if they click on that to see the rters then you're not going to be noticed. If they pick a winner by loading up the tweets containing a hashtag then you'd be picked up either way (I think).
If they ask for a rt and a comment then I do a regular rt and then comment on their tweet.Thank you to everyone who posts on the competitions boards. You all rock!0 -

When you click the retweet symbol on Twitter you have the option to just retweet (so simply share the tweet) or to quote tweet, which allows you to add your own text as well as quote the tweet you clicked to retweet.Best wins; GoPro, £2K, Brittany week, festival tix twice, Bath break, Sweden spa break, iPhone x2, £250 Amazon x2, tech bundle, 55" TV, Haven break, £1K, Smeg mixer, 3 night spa break, Greenhouse, posh tent, house plants, 2 pairs boots, posh mattress, year tailored supps, £250 lingerie, £150 buyagift, £250 hotel0 -

It has been there for a while, not a new thing.
