So the only way to get a ticket on the CAG end is to be a Twitter user? I'm not going to join the service just for this, but it feels unfair to be left out when Twitter is usually just one of several ways to earn an entry. :cry:

The cards are from the USA. No idea if they work in Canada.perfect. it's a pain in the neck to get US cards up here.
alright i entered and double social networked. I'm hoping we don't have to actually sign in/register or whatever for the game prizes.

Thanks CheapyD.
To clarify, the Freebers-end of the giveaway is just for US-residents. We're not ready to open our arms to everyone just yet (we are working on it, starting with Canada - but so far its just USA)
BUT the CAG-end of the giveaway is open to ANYONE. I can easily scratch the cards and dish out the codes, to anyone in ANY country.
This is why we decided to have CAG-only and Freebers giveaways side-by-side, so everyone has a chance at getting SOMEthing.
Good luck everyone! :)

We trust CAG, and CAG is like, "Hey, freebers, don't worry cat, they're cool." ahh CAG the ultimate in co-signing. If CAG has co-signed on HDDVD maybe it would still be around.
I want to increase my odds of winning by using facebook and twitter but it says I've entered already on the first block :(well you have to wait. When I did it it says "Wait 5 second to enter thru facebook" and a few seconds later it popped up.. same with twitter afterwards
Just my two cents... I've never been comfortable with contests that make you spam your friends as the condition for entering.well if you want to enter contests seriously we all have alts. If you just want to do one contest a single tweet isn't too bad. You can put it up at 1in the morning and bug almost none of your peeps.

Hello CAG bods and Freebers. Quite a neat concept you got going. Sure popular.
Could you clarfy for me, what part of this contest is open to everyone? I'm in the UK and I see this:
Sorry, this competition isn't available to users in your region.
And your Freebers website giveaway is for US Residents only?
O:)

he's talking about the CAG contest. if you go to the CAG contest page

you can access that from anywhere. The points will be in US currency but anyone can win them.
The one at Freeber's website IS US only.

Looks like our first winner of the PSN/MSPoint card is: xXLeadFarmerXx
I just got an e-mail from a CAG staffer and have already e-mailed the winner to ask which card they want to win.
Also, I believe you only have to enter one time on CAG... but at Freebers.com you will need to enter each day we have a new prize. :)

Hey guys, no problem! Thanks for entering and I hope you all continue to use Freebers.com even after the contest is over. If our user majority wants video games - we'll make sure video game related items are dished out at LEAST once or twice (if not more) per week.
Our most recent winner of the PSN Card / MS Point card is... MidValley!

It's really disappointing to see CAG associated with something that SO looks like fraud, from all of the bot/spam accounts that keep winning.
freebers
03-21-2011, 02:56 PM
Here are the last 3 winners of the CAG contest (Choice of $20 PSN or 1600 MS Point Card):
zero26
illusio
unopepito06
Congrats everyone! I'll be PMing each of you.
And keklar, many CAG members have won. A few of them have posted pics on our forum to prove it. They had equal chance at winning, and yes some people aren't active on twitter and facebook. Not everyone spends 7 hours per day online, and thats okay - we legally have to keep this open to everyone.
Will we balance it out to be a bit more competitive, and make it more contest-style? We might, in fact we are going over some ideas right now.
We've thought about doing it referral-program style, and the top 3 people win something... but even that could turn into a monopoly of some sorts. What if the top 3 people were practically the same every day because they were just so huge on the social networks?
If you have any suggestions, visit our forum http://freebers.com/forums/ and let us know what you think we should do regarding selecting winners. Right now its 100% even based on the entries you involve yourself in.
Back to what I was doing, sending PMs now winners. Congrats again! :)

On the frbrs twitter, they mention spending 12,000 dollars since the beginning of Freebers. I don't know how long it's been running, but they felt it was a sinking ship.
