Is the contest limited to the first fifty entries, or is it going to be a lottery as stated in the guidelines? I tried to enter but was rejected by the bot because the contest was full. Please clarify. Thanks so much. :)
I got an email from the bot saying that it's reached its limit of 50 entries and isn't accepting any more submissions. I'm confused; the guidelines seem to indicate that all entries received in the entry window will be put in a lottery, not that the bot will only accept the first 50 entries.
I thought the web form was malfunctioning since it said the contest was closed. I sent it in via email, but got a rejection response. If it's chosen by lottery, shouldn't all submissions go through?
It should be fixed now. Please go enter again and report back! I think I caught it in time; none of the entries had started posting yet, so I'm hopeful that the lottery will now kick in.
The webpage says the contest is full. I went to the link included in the guidelines post. Is that right place to go?
ReplyDeleteThanks!

I thought the same thing - that it would choose 50 random entries after 7:00 p.m. after the contest closes. Apparently it just takes the first fifty.

I'm on it! I'm sorry!!
And if we were one of the first 50 entries, we'll be entered into the lottery, right?
ReplyDeleteThanks so much!
working now, thanks.
ReplyDeleteYes, Melissa, that's right!
