Would you Scratch for a Wii?

still, "register early" doesn't say to me "you'll get to play early"

that just doesn't sound right. webbie puts info up everywhere about "starting tuesday", then there's a secret club with secret links? i smell a rat

at the very least, not a fairly done contest. tell people when it starts, then start it early for a select few who happened to find a secret link? not a federal case, but still not cool

 

It was posted on the Wii Ad...that was flashing over here to the right of our message area, for two or three days last week, you could 'click to register to scratch early'.....

 

I couldn't stand the flashing, I had to turn my adblock back on for this site.

 

get outta here. shows how much attention i pay to the sidebar ads. i saw the ad, even saw it on the home page, but never noticed the early thing.

 

Hi folks - yes, to confirm, the Wii has been won in the Scratch n' Win contest. The winning card was pulled at 2:28am this morning!

Remember, it is a game of chance and the software generates the numbers randomly. It would be entirely possible for the first card to be a winner, or it could take thousands of cards before the winning one comes up. (In this game it happened to occur after 2,241 cards were played.)

As for the early players on Monday - we ran promo ads on the sidebar and also on the front page for a week prior encouraging signups to our Local Updates for first information about this specific contest. Over the years we have provided "first notice" information on contests and other specials through our Updates list. Our Local Updates are usually sent out several times a month, or more often when we have a special event or contest running.

Thanks to our players and congratulations to the winner - will have another Scratch n' Win contest running again shortly!

 

Dang! I just signed on to try to play, and I never got a chance. Darn. Oh well. Congrats to the winner!

 

Well no, there was info on registering early, if you missed it that is your fault, not webbies.
When you register they send you a email telling you about the secret link, but you had to register. Sorry you miss it.

Ya'll know it wasn't me.
2:28 is sleepy time. :mrgreen:

 

Hey Webbie!

I can't get to the link.... Is it over already?

Thanks!

 

Ooops - I see you posted about the winner above.... I am a little slow this A.M.... ;-)

 

:lol: I have to get my coffee first before doing anything else. Brain doesn't function well without it. :lol:

 

i guess i just read this thread and thought that's all there was to it. honestly i don't hit the main page often, and i rarely bother to look at sidebar ads.

 

Well, who won?

 

The winner is a Four Oaks resident - will be picking up the prize tomorrow at Medicap!

 

Dang! Thanks anyway Webbie - Merry Christmas! :mrgreen:

 

Hmmmm....looks like we might be needing some of the boyz to be present for security! :lol:

 

The next Scratch n' Win contest has begun! See the front page of 4042.com for the link!

 

HA! Watch your back Ken! That's NO match for a Mommy lookin for a Wii for her boy for Christmas. Think..."Jingle all the Way"8)

j/k:lol:

 

Sure did bump the numbers up a bunch for this one. Or maybe the Wii was the same, dunno.

 

I surrender. Thanks for all you do Webbie!
