BTG Practice & Video Part 1 & 2 combined??

by nychivas » Fri Oct 29, 2010 6:32 pm
Hi All,

Am i going crazy or have the 2 bonus tasks been combined into 1. When i clicked the link for part 1, i went through the various steps and submitted the video. Then when i clicked on part 2 and the instructions were the same. Maybe this was explained before and i just need sleep....After all the total number of points add up (25 + 150 = 175 see i can add) :)

just making sure i didn't miss anything.

Thanks
JP (NYCHIVAS)

Hey nychivas,

I had also submitted the video yesterday but still haven't got the points.
I think David is busy with some other work,so he was unable to verify the videos.But I guess sooner or later we will get the points.
It takes time and effort to explain, so if my comment helped you please press Thanks button :)



Just because something is hard doesn't mean you shouldn't try,it means you should just try harder.

Will bonus points for submitting the video will be added to the 5th Week points (if approved)?
I am not perfect

Hey guys,

The videos and subscriptions to the newsletters are not coded in the system in the way a normal article is. For instance, if you like today's featured article and then share it, your points get added to your account automatically. However, it's a different story for videos and newsletter subscriptions because they require the team (most probably good ol' David) to manually award points to people who sign up/send videos. Don't worry, this will be done by the time of the draw. It's just that it's easier to deal with everyone's points at the same time rather than one by one.

David - have these points been doled out as well? I'm not sure I received them yet.
