Update 2020-09-01T05:00:00Z: WE HAVE A WINNER!!
Congrats to @Tiya who brought over six friends to our little community! Thank you to all who participated!
Here it is, our first ever Wacky Writers contest! We’ve been around for about two weeks now, which is crazy - so much has happened in so short a time!
But we are still missing many of our friends from other writing platforms, so we decided, why not make it an event? The user with the MOST referrals will win:
-
a special badge: "The Social Butterfly"
- a custom emoji of your choosing
Fine print
* Custom emojis cannot be anything that violates our site guidelines, such as derogatory or NSFW content.
How it works:
You have two options to invite users:
- You can go to your profile>invites>Send Invite. This generates one-time use only links that must be sent to the intended recipient’s email address. This gives you complete control over who gets an invite, but it does require that you know your friends’ email addresses.
- You can request a “multi-invite” link from a moderator or @CEJeffery. This is a link you can post anywhere: social media, group email, scribbled on a bathroom wall (don’t actually do that) or anywhere someone can click on it (we recommend this option).
These two methods allow us to track who the referring user is of new sign-ups so we can keep score! You can either private message any of us for a link, OR respond here and we will message you a personal email invite link.
Rules:
- Don’t sign up with multiple email addresses to try and get fake points. We do know it’s you. Anyone found trying to cheat this rule will be automatically disqualified from the contest and temporarily muted from the forums for 48 hours.
- Sign-ups must be validated, meaning the user who signs up must verify their email address and login.
The contest begins August 11 at 12:00am CST and ends August 31 at 8:00pm CST. Good luck everyone!
** Since a few of you have asked, yes, posting on any social media, Instagram, WhatsApp, is acceptable. Sharing with your friends from your writing sites is encouraged. And yes, everyone will be welcomed with open arms, regardless of affiliation, should they decide they want to join!
** Also, y’all, please don’t like, inundate strangers’ inboxes, okay? Send it to people you know, post it where your followers can see, but don’t be a spammer. It’s not cool.**
Oh, and for those of you who know:
five hundred hours past
the missing month gone at last
everything will change
Cheers, me too
