Spell or treat monthly giveaway is not random

purplecatlover

Last months email announcing the winner said they had found it hard to “choose” a winner. This months said they had had to “choose their top three and then toss a coin”. So I messaged asking how they chose winners.

It’s by “ People participation during the month and answering our challenges, people with more points are the finalists”.

I asked if it was a random draw among all who answered all quizzes correctly then and how else points are gained. They “analyse the likes, shares, comments during the month”

Just wanted to let people know in case like me you know there is no chance of you managing to like, share and comment on most of their posts on Facebook which I’m inferring is what would be necessary to do in order to get enough points to be a finalist even if you do manage to catch all the emails and get all the quizzes Correct.

That actually goes completely against their advertised terms of entry....

I’d guess they’ll use the word “eligible” in there to justify selecting from so few finalists each month. 5ey didn’t bother answering me when I asked how points were awarded for sharing etc and if each share, comment and like was worth a set amount of points.
