Go ahead: Retweet THIS! :)

We’re making UPGRADES!

That’s a good thing right? Over the next week you’ll be seeing a lot of changes (hopefully for the better!) to the website. We’re going to take some time to talk about these on a few blog posts (yeah – we have a blog now!) especially when they affect how the game is played. The first post is about the new way of entering to play: the “retweet”!

One of the things we’ve been seeing a TON of confusion about is this whole “entry tweet” thing. People were having problems keeping straight whether or not they’d sent the right entry tweet for that prize or that week. We finally got enough questions about it that we HAD to do something. So, here’s our solution: From now on, when you want to enter to win a prize, just retweet our announcement for it!

What’s a “retweet”? It’s when you repeat someone else’s tweet, giving them credit. Here’s the definitive guide for those of you who love to read

You can “retweet” our announcement of the prize in two different ways:

For you season retweeters, just watch for our announcement of the prize on Twitter (don’t worry — we’ll announce it several times) and retweet it. You’ll know it’s the right announcement because it’ll say “#prize” or “#rtthis” at the end of the tweet. Just resend out that message with “RT @tweetaprize:” on the front, and you’ll be good to go!
Or here’s the REALLY easy way: just find the prize you like on our website, and hit the “retweet” button! That button will take you to Twitter with a nice preformatted message, so you just have to hit “update”.

Which ever way you choose to go, just make sure you get that retweet out there. That will enter you into the contest for that prize. Don’t forget though: you’ll still have to watch for the prize question and answer it correctly to be able to win!

Now go retweet some prizes so you can WIN!
