contests

This is another contest that involves Facebook, but just yesterday I entered the contest to win 1 million HHonors points so if this is the price to win something (i.e. let all these apps access my info, and all seem to need it) let it be. “How far would you go with 750,000 Aeroplan Miles? That’s the Grand Prize of…

Usually I don’t fill out surveys, unless there is some reward. And this survey fulfilled the criteria 🙂 so I completed it, and I have noticed two faults in the survey. 1. The last column says ‘Don’t remember/Not applicable’, but they are different, you cannot just put them in the same column. I do remember what I talked with…

I see the words Facebook and fans and like and I cringe (Facebook down 33% since IPO, yes I still have got it!) I still don’t know how this ‘like’ is useful for already known companies, but whatever, it cannot do any harm to ‘like’ Air Canada and enter the contest. Great things are happening…

First time I got all questions so I was presented with this map of an airport: The ToC says: ” and  then try to guess the location of a virtual Star Alliance branded plane hidden on a map by dropping a pin.” What does it actually mean? Do you have to drop the pin on a plane or the plane is hidden as per ToC and you cannot see it at all so it is completely wrong to drop it on a plane that it can be seen, it has to be beside it. It isn’t clear for me at all but I would go for the hidden definition rather than choosing an existing plane (even if searching on Internet many people dropped the pin on a plane). By the way I should have done this research before playing – no contest should be taken lightly, especially with what it is at stake 🙂 – and had a more scientific approach. For example I found: “It is easy to see its ORD and that Terminal…
