This weekend we want to do something fun and a little different. We're combining our trifecta and jackpot contests to bring you..... OTX Jackpot Weekend!

Here's how it works:

Complete the OTX Daily Survey and recieve credit between 8am today (Friday) and midnight Eastern Sunday. You'll receive your usual .75 for completing it. But on top of that, we will start a jackpot. For every 25 entries, we will kick $5 into the pot. On Monday morning, we will select from one of you to win the jackpot ON TOP of your regular OTX earnings.

You don't need to post in this thread for your entry to count. You'll know you are entered when credit appears in your account. I'll update the thread every few hours through the weekend. On a typical Friday through Sunday...we usually have between 100 and 200 surveys. You do the math to see what kind of jackpot you could end up with. :)

Be sure to spread the word because the more the entries, the higher the pot!!

If you get 1 every day, does that increase your chances of wining?

It does! You will get an entry for each day. So some of you might have 3 entries. :)

We're officially up to 25 entries now. That's our first $5 jackpot mark!

I never try for OTX anymore since I have had such a hard time qualifying the past couple months, but because of the contest I thought I'd give it a try. And guess what....I got one! :banana:

It will be interesting to see if my survey credits.....I got about half way through one when the survey froze up. I was able to go "back" on a question, but then my computer showed "done" on the bottom left hand corner of the screen - but the screen was blank......I closed the browser and tried to get back in to see if it would let me complete, but it said that I couldn't take another survey. :confused:

I don't think I am pitching in today. I got stuck in a survey and had to get out and now it says I have already taken one.

wilsonfamily4
06-20-2009, 12:09 PM
Yippee! I now have 2 entries. Usually I do OTX every other day because it seems to work better that way BUT I started early enough yesterday that I got in today too!

Thanks Tricia. Now I am up 1.50! Off to do more surveys.

For me it says all surveys are full:(

Don't give up. I have received that message lots of times to only try later and be able to get a survey. Sometimes, I try 2-3 times in a row and it works. Apparently, they are always adding more surveys. So, somedays, you get lucky and get one even tho it takes several visits to the site.

Wow!!!Igot 2 for this weekend can I get 3???:banana::banana:

Oh I hope the survey that DH just took credits. DH hasn't taken a OTX survey in forever. He was coming in the house from outside working and said that he just wants to sit down for awhile - so I talked him into trying for an OTX survey.

lildebbie
06-20-2009, 06:05 PM
Oh my gosh, OTX is annoying me today. I've tried about 4 times and it keeps tracking me to the the same exact survey, which I keep getting booted from (as much as I might like to, I can't change my children's ages!!)

edit: never mind my ranting, the 5th time is a charm, finally got one

faithhope

06-20-2009, 06:57 PM
I've tried to help you all along but it tells me I've met my maximum for surveys today. Funny because I haven't done an OTX in months. :rotfl:

I will keep trying though.

mmm611
06-20-2009, 08:15 PM
Yay! I tried this morning and got the try again in 9 hours message, so I figured after 7 I'd be good. I just finished one, so I'm two for two. I think that's a record for me!

SunshineGirl
06-20-2009, 08:45 PM
102 entries...that's 20 bucks in the pot!!

askomsky
06-20-2009, 08:52 PM
I'm TRYING!!!!! :computer: :D Guess too many people are taking them, I had a few chances earlier today and couldn't qualify and now I can't get one. Oh well I'll keep trying!

108 entries---still $20 in the jackpot. Last day to enter!

askomsky
06-21-2009, 02:18 PM
Whew! Finally got a 2nd entry into the contest. They must have loaded new survey's bc I couldn't get anything yesterday or this morning, but got right into one just now.

marcymajor
06-21-2009, 02:58 PM
i have been trying since 1 this afternoon to get one and it keeps asking the same question about what i drink and then boots me out as i am not much of a drinker. well at least i do have 2 entries into the contest for the weekend so i am happy about that. congrats to you askomsky for getting your 2 entries. wtg girl.:sunshine:

piglet-for-me
06-21-2009, 03:30 PM
Waiting until the top of the hours to see that it credits (is that still when they do?), but I just completed the first OTX survey I've done in a long, long time. OTX & I aren't usually friends. :cooldance:


Credit received!

SunshineGirl
06-21-2009, 03:45 PM
118 entries...we're getting closer to kicking up that jackpot!

chipndale
06-21-2009, 04:32 PM
Oh I hope there will be alot of surveys loaded for tonight. DH can't try until around 6 ish. I am really going to have to beg him to take on tonight esp since it is Fathers Day and he has worked in the yard all day cleaning up after all the rain we had this week.

sammielynn
06-21-2009, 05:16 PM
I just got another one!

I'd like a 2nd entry but having trouble getting OTX to cooperate!:rolleyes:

marcymajor
06-21-2009, 06:07 PM
lanny-i know exactly how you feel. otx keeps booting me out of every single survey i have tried today. all i can tell you is to take a deep breath and keep trying and hopefully you will get one today for your 2nd entry into the contest. keep smiling and have a great evening.:sunshine2:

Ug! been trying all day... at least I got 1 yesterday... this is why I don't try OTX often...

I feel like it doesn't like my name... it bumps me out after it asks for my name... maybe my mama didn't give me the right name:rotfl:

This is a really good contest, I like the format. I may borrow the idea with some modifications for work. I just love finding good ideas.

Well, I got one OTX on Friday, but on Sat. & Sun. it was like pulling teeth from an alligator. Everytime I gave my childs age or selected what I drink, it would kick me out everytime. :( SO I hope one entry will be enough. :) Now on the otherhand I was able to get all 3 daily surveys and 1 two cent survey. :banana::banana: Thanks for the contest.

SunshineGirl

Things really slowed down yesterday. We ended up with 133 entries, which is a jackpot of $25. I'll be drawing later this morning. :sunshine:

This was a great contest!! I will say that OTX is the most frustrating survey for me usually, but due to the contest, I made the effort, and got 2 out of the 3 days!! So regardless of whether I win or not, I made $1.50 for my efforts!! :sunshine::sunshine::sunshine: Thanks Tricia! :clap:

I'm pretty new with all this and was feeling pretty good b/c I've been having great luck with the surveys...then yesterday, I couldn't get my OTX...it was acting really weird and just wasn't going anywhere :rolleyes:

And now today, I haven't been able to get any and OTX says I've already taken all the surveys I can for the day and to try again tomorrow even though I never qualified for any...hope it's not the beginning of bad luck w/ surveys...

Still fun to try though, and I can see my account slowly building up already!!!

Can't wait to see who wins the $25!:sunshine:

Judging by the OTX (and Daily Survey) numbers from the weekend, surveys pretty much ran out yesterday. I would bet that by this afternoon, we will see it getting easier to take both the OTX and the Greenfield surveys. They tend to cycle through each week.

marcymajor
06-22-2009, 12:18 PM
Tricia-i do hope you are right about otx as i have not been able to get one since saturday afternoon and today isn't looking all that good either. maybe you can say an otx prayer for me and sprinkle some survey pixie dust my way so i can get one today.:rotfl:
