Entrecard Credit Transfer Glitch

I don’t have plan of writing about entrecard this early, I do write about Entrecard every end of the month and thank my top droppers at the same time. I already sent 300 ec credits each to 3 top winners, see image below:

ectransaction

Please take note of the date, Oct. 1. I tried sending 2 x 300 = 600 and 2 x 200 = 400 , a total of 1000 ec credit this morning. I’m aware of the maximum transfer of 1000 ec credit or 14 transfer a week, whichever comes higher… but my last transfer was Oct. 1, how come I cannot transfer EC credits now? I still have to transfer 2,000 ec credits to contest participants.

This is the first time I have a contest, I’m having second thoughts on running contests again in the future. With this glitch, I thought how can I make it possible to make EC credits as prizes. Take note that the contest runs for only 2 weeks (Glitch Anniversary Contest) and ended last Sept. 30, winners are announced in October 1 (Anniversary Contest Winners) and Entrecard started cutting the transfer in Sept 29.

To the participants, everyone were listed and I never forget that I owe you. I consider this as a small contest and tried handling the transfer myself but the “transfer glitch” is beyond my control. My apologies.

What to do in this situation?

  • Users running large contests should contact support via their dashboard – I’m still waiting for their response, all I need is to transfer 2,000 entrecard credits for this week.
  • Did you know that Entrecard already have contest coordinator? I emailed Rose and also waiting for the response. You could email her at contests@entrecard.com. Please read the link below before emailing her.
  • For future contests, please read Entrecard Contest Machine

Who says I will not run contest again? That depends on Entrecard response to my problem.

Update 10.14.08: EC credits were sent through admin Ben Barden. It is advisable to contact Entrecard admin on your ec dashboard. No replied received from Rose, the contest coordinator. I’m glad, problem solved. :D

Twilight, The Movie

Last summer, my son requested me to find Twilight Saga ebooks by Stephenie Meyer for him. That time, I didn’t know that the Twilight series could catch my attention knowing that its genre is romance. I mentioned before on this blog that I seldom read love story books but I found out recently that its about vampire and human love story, the vampire thing have the “it” thing to me. I’ll start reading mobile ebooks of Twilight Saga soon. The good news is the first book Twilight is already a movie and will be having its premier on November 17, 2008 in Los Angeles, California.

twilight_movieSynopsis: (Spoiler below this line)
Bella Swan (Kristen Stewart) has always been a bit different, never caring about or fitting in with the trendy girls at her Phoenix, Arizona high school. When her mother Renee (Sarah Clarke) remarries and decides to move with her new husband to Florida, and Bella decides to go live with her father, Charlie (Billy Burke), in the rainy little town of Forks, Washington, she doesn’t expect anything to change. Then she meets the mysterious and dazzlingly beautiful Edward Cullen (Robert Pattinson), a boy unlike any she’s ever met. Intelligent and witty, his piercing eyes see straight into her soul. Soon, Bella and Edward are swept up in a passionate and decidedly unorthodox romance. Edward can run faster than any cheetah, he can stop a moving car with his bare hands, and he hasn’t aged since 1918. Most importantly, he’s a vampire. Like all vampires, he’s immortal. Yes, he has fangs, but he doesn’t drink human blood (they’re vampire “vegetarians”), which is rare among the vampire population. Instead, they go on regular “hiking” trips, where they feed on prey such as grizzly bears and mountain lions. For Edward, Bella is the thing he has waited ninety years for – a soul mate. But the closer they get, the more Edward must struggle to resist the primal pull of her scent, which could send him into an uncontrollable frenzy. And what will they do when James (Cam Gigandet), Laurent (Edi Gathegi), and Victoria (Rachel Lefevre) come into town and James sets his sights on Bella? Will true love prevail when Edward is forced to save her life and conquer his thirst? The true question is, When you can live forever, what do you live for?

Globe 24EVER UnliChat Free Trial… EXTENDED!

Globe Telecoms’ 24EVER UnliChat Free Trial was about to end tomorrow, October 4. As I checked their site,the good news is here. Thank you, Globe. There will be more time testing the beta version of UnliChat, I hope there will be no more errors so many subscribers will avail of the unlimited YM service when the promo ends.

The Yahoo Messenger Unlimited chat promo is extended until October 29. Again, promo is open to postpaid and prepaid subscribers. So far, I like it better than YM using Opera on my mobile.

Para wala nang GTG, ituloy-tuloy ang kwentuhan sa YM kahit wala ka na sa tapat ng computer with Unlimited chat through Yahoo Messenger!

Hindi na kailangang maputol ang kwentuhan, dahil sa Unlichat, pwedeng pwede ka nang makipagchat through YM gamit ang cell phone mo! While you’re traveling, passing the time sa tambayan, window shopping, pwede ka nang makipag-chat, anytime, anywhere kahit walang computer.

Update (Nov. 13, 2008) Extended again until December 11, 2008

My Entrecard Favorites, My Top Droppers

How to be included in my entrecard favorites? I checked the profiles of each received card weekly, if I received 20 and above drops, you’re in. But sometimes, I didn’t noticed some blogs not unless they are included in my top droppers. I do removed blogs who didn’t maintain my quota.

What should you get when included in my favorites? I always start dropping to my co-reciprodroppers, (approximately 50 pax), followed by my favorites (around 70 as of now). After that, I will drop to every EC member on my inbox starting from most popular until I reach the drop limit of 300. If I still have time, I save the undropped sites on my bookmark and drop on them after cut-off. Sometimes, I have other things to do and missed dropping to sites on my inbox, my apologies.

Do we really need to be listed to entrecard groups when others are not really reciprocating? I find it unfair to those who religiously visit and drop their card. Sometimes, I’m having second thoughts to drop on them when I still have many unvisited sites. September’s top droppers are as follows. There are 2 co-reciprodroppers, the rest are included in my entrecard favorites. I do received 31 drops from all of them. Check them out.
