Please vote EVERY DAY for FMUKERS in Cineworld balloon comp
Re: Please vote EVERY DAY for FMUKERS in Cineworld balloon comp
I thought it didn't finish until 23 November or something like that? I voted from home and work this morning and there was nothing to indicate that it was too late.

Re: Please vote EVERY DAY for FMUKERS in Cineworld balloon comp
I looked back and I originally posted that it finished on the 23rd - I got this from the rules on the website. Last night I registered my OH so that he could be in the draw for the annual pass and I am pretty sure it said the 20th, as I made a mental note to make sure I got myself entered by the end of today.
They appear to be altering the rules of the competition, as they feel like it. Let's hope they alter the rules and offer a few extra prizes as well!

Fingers crossed one of you wins the random prize (which I think is also a year's pass?)

Re: Please vote EVERY DAY for FMUKERS in Cineworld balloon comp
Maybe Cineworld thought it was getting out of hand and decided to curtail it? There was probably something in the T & C allowing that. Or perhaps they had a maximum number of total votes in mind and this was reached earlier than anticipated?

Re: Please vote EVERY DAY for FMUKERS in Cineworld balloon comp
8880? I had 9130 when I voted last night!!! Luckily, I did vote after midnight, and as an afterthought I also entered the OH to get an extra 10 balloons. No idea why they took about 250 balloons off me though! Where can you see those end results anyway?Allsinging wrote:Just went to vote and realised its all finished...you all get something as
6th place: phunkygal - 13780
8th place: beate - 8880
13th place: misseypootle - 4540
14th place: MariaLionza - 4160
Are really good scores compared to the thousands that must have entered

Yep hope Beate or Phunkygal are one of those picked out at random out of the top 10 (assuming only top 4 gets a prize)
