Hi all,

I started this thread for anyone who wants to come here for lite discussion, jokes, and just general discussion and fun.

Everyone is welcome!

I was thinking that maybe it would be helpful to keep the original thread to a bit more of a serious discussion of the clues and answers.

This would make the original thread more useful to those seeking serious information and clues without having to read through hundreds of extraneous messages.

So, I hope it catches on !

So pop a beer and pull up a chair and relax !

ARGH ! ! ! !

I tried posting a new dm. It specifically asked who should get the yellow jersey. I typed in "Cindy Whetstine" like a good person. It wouldn't let me explain the title -- I was going to put in about the panty hose dealie. Then, because that site is so strange, it took my entry right out of my hands and posted it. The explanation of the title is "Cindy Whetstine" submitted by "you." WHAT THE HELL???? I don't think it took my nomination for the yellow jersey. I am soooooo confused. But at least it isn't attributing the posting to Cindy which would disqualify her. It's just inferring that she made me a woman. EEK!EEK!EEK! ARGH ! ! !
Well there goes my reputation!!!! EEK!EEK!

With the heat and lack of rain corn crops are withering in the fields, maybe you should have put them in a vault or "lockbox" Wink

laugh out loud I had just talked to my nephew a few days ago, and he had been helping a guy with his huge garden and said it won't be but a few days and corn will be ready. I said, ohhh that sounds so good. I called him and said thanks, and he said for what? LMAO I told him, and he said, nope wasn't him. So maybe in a week or so I'll get some from him laugh out loud

I haven't been here, in FF in over a week, so if this has already been discussed, I apologize for the repetition.

On July 16th, per the Official Rules for the (Subway) Grab the Green Sweepstakes, I opened the rules, went to rule # 6Cii, and opened the 'click here' button, in an attempt to get 2 free codes for the sweepstakes. The form looked lame, but I filled it out anyway. Then I waited, and waited, and waited.....

No code(s) ever came to my email address. So, on July 17th, when I opened the lame form, I put in the comments section of the form that I wanted the free codes sent to my email address. The following is an email conversation between Customer Service and myself:

From: Customer Support

Sent: Mon, July 18, 2011 11:40:19 AM
Subject: Subway Grab The Green Complimentary Codes

Hello,

Thank you for your inquiry. We apologize for any inconvenience. We cannot simply
e-mail codes from this account. However, you are in luck! Between 7/16/2011 and
7/24/2011 at 12:00 A.M., ET, to receive a Complimentary Code without a purchase,
there will be a "CLICK HERE" button that will send us an email requesting a
Complimentary Code and two (2) Complimentary Codes will be emailed back to you.
Each Complimentary Code is valid for one (1) Game Play. Please contact us with
any further questions. Good luck!

Thank you,
PrizeLogic Customer Support

On 7/16/2011, I did choose the "CLICK HERE" button. It gave me the same form
that I filled out on 7/17/2011, that caused you to get my request. I filled the
form out, the way I did on the 17th, because I never received a response, from
the form I filled out on the 16th. No Complimentary Code has been sent to me so
far, even though I requested the codes, by using the "CLICK HERE" option, in the
Official Rules, both on the 16th and on the 17th. The only thing I can surmise,
is either the "CLICK HERE" button is not functioning properly, or it is not
truly a way of getting a free code. Either way, I feel that the option for the
free code is misleading and frustrating. So, I guess, there is no way for me to
get the free code.

Hello Ms. Ives,

Thank you for your inquiry. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience and frustration. Our technical team is currently working on resolving this matter. We assure you that this issue will be resolved as soon as possible. Please feel free to contact us with any further questions.

Thank you,
PrizeLogic Customer Support

At this point, I have NO clue if they will actually get this resolved before the contest end date on 07/24/11, or not. I, for one, both yesterday and today, wrote in the comment section of the (now I feel VERY lame) form. "I know I'm never getting these codes, but I'm sending this to you any way."

I don't know if it will matter, but I'm hoping it will cause them to send extra free codes -- or something else 'complimentary'. For those of you who have been trying to get the free codes, I suggest you either write something in the comments section or write to their customer support team (maybe something free will come of it -- probably NOT, but 'maybe').


Their customer support addy: [email protected]

He's back but he's way behind on contests and he's trying to catch up.
