I know, I know!! I will!! I just want to keep the forum alive!! But 90 days would put it in the new year.

I also wonder why the never posted the winners!! That just seems unfair. Get folks invested for 10 weeks and then leave them hanging!! Oh, ok, I'm getting grumpy waiting. I was hoping I would be able to get everyone their gift bags before Christmas!! I'll be quiet now!!

I HAVE NEVER SEEN A LIST OF WINNERS YET! ANYBODY?? ROSE YOU CAN BE AS GRUMPY AS YOU WANT!!! LOL!!! I played a game called JT400 for 7 (yes seven) MONTHS ... only to WIN a fake gold coin, a certificate of accomplishment, and more clues to play again! ROFL!! Oh!! and a $25 GC in the catalog that they sent, to order from their catalog, with out anything I can find that is $25 or less!!! I figured after all that time (the top winners for the first 1000) would have been given something much more exciting after all the time (daily we spent on it )!!! 7months!!! I can wait weeks now! LOL!! Hey did you start playing the THANKS USA? Still playing Xmarks the spot? Are there anyother games your playing now? TTYS! madmad59 Very Happy Going to see DANE COOK LIVE IN DALLAS TOMORROW!!! WHOO HOO!! Can't wait! HELLO ROOMIES!!!! Very Happy Very Happy

Madmad

Woohoo on your concert! Yea, I finished ThanksUSA. Haven't found any games. Was doing iyomu, but got disqualified b/c I didn't read the fine print. I am still steaming!! I was trying to at least get in the top 10 on behalf of my non-profit. I got no notice, nothing!! Anyway, I'll stew a few days and try and find something else!! You know, the ones who played Covet religiously should put our collective know-how together and create our own game, find sponsors, etc. and make our own money!! It's not far-fetched. Well, I am sorry about your fake gold coin, that really sucks!! I hope we can all find a decent game to play at least after the new year!!

that is a really good idea Rose, Id be on board. The only thing is I wonder how hard it would be to get sponsers since we wouldnt be promoting a well known organization. Id call it the People-Who-Diserve-a-Break game! or something to that effect LOL...

I like that idea, too!

I'm still playing Eldritch Errors. Deus City finally ended, after a year of playing. I stumbled across Buried Alive on Fear.net. This is it's last week I think. There is, suppoedly, a prize of a million dollars if you figure out where they are buried. Been lurking on the Whitechapel Foundation: Open Cases; it might be good. My interest hasn't been really snagged by a new game yet.

if someone finds a good game to play definetly post it in here. I think it is funny that we are all treading back to this forum...

I read it everyday though I have not had time to make any posts.

Anywho.. do you remember that game Red Monday? well if u do.. IT WAS A CRUMMY COMMERCIAL!!!

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH....

It was to promote a webcast of a story.... there was never any hope of stoping anything..the bastards..

I am still waiting for my prizes... the second I get it I will post it on here.. I will put what is in the gift bags under a spoiler link so those who want to be suprised still can be.

Hope everyone is well!! TTFN

Where is my perfume!!!!!!

So from the past few posts I have read I see everyone is still hanging out in this forum! cool! I havent been in in a long long time, mainly cause i had to actually get back to work or my advisor might consider banning me from a computer! anyway as you all I have yet to receive my prize, i won two and promised the second to my mother, who i am traveling to mexico to see on the 15 of december. but.... no prize yet!!!!!! this sucks. on top of it i have gone past perfume counters with sjp perfumes and i've been " i am so lucky i am getting my two prizes, i will have the perfume and a body wash at least" that was the first couple of times. now its like what the heck is wrong with them, we played for 10 weeks and have waited now a long time, no winners list no nothing c'mon Covet people we deserve our kits!

Ellie, feel better now? I think we are all in the same boat. I would feel better if they would at least post a winner's list! But, it has only been a little over 30 days. The UPS guy stopped by again today and I thought, maybe, but nah, just the wreath my husband's boss sends each year.

Emhamm, I searched again for contests/challenges online, but didn't find anything. I have a programmer that could help and even if we found some small sponsors at first and had success at getting folks in that then the next round we could maybe find a bigger sponsor. If the game is interesting enough, folks might join because it's fun. First, we need a premise. We've had the Covet challenges and some of us did the Save My husband for $4.18 payout. Any ideas?

Livegamesnetwork.com has a new game, just started, P.S. Don't shoot me.

You will have to register & ask for an email invite if you are not already a member there (they send the email)

I would sign up, but it says to hit someone up who has an invite already first. Do you have an invite?


"Just for now, we are opening up to a few people who can invite friends. So, if you know someone with invites hit them up for one of the invites they have. "

OK, I finally got an invite code. I was going to sign up, but noticed they want my cell phone number - I am reluctant to give that out. Have you started the game? Have they sent you messages yet? I am tring to get an idea how much it will cost - I have to pay for incoming calls.
