Title: Contests/Promotions: What is going on
Post by: kjstrukel on November 17, 2017, 07:00:08 pm
Can someone from FC please explain why the weekly Contests/Promotions have not been updated in weeks?  I (along with many FC'ers) understand that there can be issues, but please, just tell us, or get rid of the promos.  It is frustrating to go to these and see contests that are WEEKS old.  Thanks!

I believe the lack of contests/promotions is just something we have to be patient about.  Hopefully it will return.  It doesn't take a lot of time to check and see if there is a new one posted.   I'm simply keeping my fingers crossed they will be back, hopefully sooner rather than any later.

I don't understand why so long a time goes by before another contest/promotion by Kohler. I miss the challenges.

Maybe he runs out of ideas. He did ask us to submit suggestions one time. Anyone remember that?


:fish:

I think Kohler just washed his hands with running the thing. I can't blame him. He's been doing it for years without fail. He's probably just sick of coming up with new quizs or what have you.

Just the same FC should put somebody on the job to keep the wheels turning.

I guess contests and promotions are taking a break. If they had been retired, there would probably not even be a link or mention.

Time will tell.

I've stopped trying to do these at all anymore. It's a shame, I was just starting to get into a habit of checking them when this problem started. Hope it is fixed soon.

I do hope someone in Administration is reading this thread, among others on this subject.  This was a fun perk; it helped pass the time.  You found your workweek defined by these contests year round.  I'm glad I was active in both mini promos and often posted encouragement to FC members to participate.  Now I am sad. :crybaby2:

I guess nobody will ever know. We’ll just have to patiently wait until the end of 2017 until something happens. :neutral:

The delay was initially because Kohler was getting married so I guess it's still just real life getting in the way

I posted on this a few months ago and it seems still no promotions. Maybe they ran out of offers.

Live seems to be getting in the way a lot.

It does bum me out, I really enjoy doing them also. :(  And it's a bummer for the sports one as there is supposed to be a winner every 3 months.

I was never good at them so I have not tried to work it in a long time.

It was good for a few extra cents every now and then. I even managed to earn a little from guess on the sports posts. Hopefully it comes back someday.
