So, it says that you've won but the STQ comes after the movie?

And if you aren't told that you've won right after the UPC, you can skip the movie?

Thanks!

For anyone interested, RFDers can build bikes together:

YOUR NEW TEAM NAME IS: redflagdeals
YOUR TEAM CODE IS: cadbury88948

Prizes are still only awarded to individuals, so being part of a team will not help or hurt your chances of winning. I thought it would be fun to see how many bikes we could build on our own.

Good luck :)

This website uses a LOT of memory. I had opened 3 windows so I could enter the codes fast than waiting for each video to finish. It was so beyond laggy and Task Manager said Firefox was using 800,000 memory. Soon as I closed the Cadbury website it went back down to normal...

Has anyone else been able to use it? When do we enter the team code?

Hmmm....

well, I'd be happy to have folks join the team that I made for my friends and family :) (It still doesn't affect anyone's odds). Just put almond58191 in the team field. Or if you can get caper's to work, that's great too :). I love this contest! We win just by entering! (I also won a bag a couple of days ago).

I find the movie speeds up a bit if you turn off the sound by clicking the speaker button at the bottom left (It appears after you enter the factory). I just enter the info, go do something else, and flip back to it in minute when it's done. Good luck everyone. Let's build some bicycles!

Apr 28th, 2009, 06:58 PM
To the winners, have you all been notified you were a winner immediately after you entered the UPC or were some of you during the video?

BobSagget
Apr 28th, 2009, 07:37 PM
Right after you enter the UPC code you are presented with a screen that says "you are a potential winner of a t-shirt" (paraphrasing) Than you click accept/decline. You are than taken to a page where you have to answer a skill testing question. If you get it right, you are sent to a page to fill out your shipping info.
After you submit you are presented with a screen that says the following:
Please allow 6 weeks for delivery of your prize.
Reference #:XXXXX
Timestamp:April 28, 2009

Please print this screen or copy down your reference number and the phone number below in case you have any questions.
Once you close this screen you will not have access to this information again.

Winner hotline number: 1-888-494-6244

So if you aren't told you are a potential winner immediately when you reach the loading screen, you don't have to watch any of the movie. Just click "Build Again".

FedEx rang my doorbell today with the t-shirt I won. While I am very impressed it was received only 7 days after it was won, I'm very sad I won't be wearing it this summer -- it is a large and there was no size choice option. I love, love, love the shirt and its message, but....no one in our household is close to a large. I know it could be logistical chaos sending out size requests, but early on in the contest it should be doable. Guess everyone is large. :(

Congrats, but... I expect more. :(

My team of family + friends is currently in 9th place at the bottom of the leaderboard after having built 5 bikes (Team: Be The Change"). You're RFD! Kick our asses already! LOL. I was tempted to switch teams when I saw that caper created one (after I'd already made mine), but I didn't want to abandon my group. It's up to you to annihilate us! Don't stop if you've won! Remember to to this every day! And bring me a souvenir from Africa if you win;). Seriously, it shouldn't be hard to knock us off the leaderboard. Get going!:D Build some bikes!

Do you guys enter all 5 upc's one after another?

If I play for someone who's already won, yes, I enter them all at once. I know they can't win again anyway, and it's all about building the bikes! If I haven't won, then I let the animation play to the end, just to spread out my odds a little (since it's a timed contest). But at this point I don't worry that much about it. Enter enough, and it feels like eventually you win :).


Oh, and I know at least a couple of us won on the last piece of the day, because if you don't then click the back to the factory button, you don't get to install the 5th piece.

I've been entering since the beginning and nothing. Do you think it depends upon the UPCs that you use?

Nope. It depends on the time at which you enter. The first entry(from someone who hasn't already won) after set times win. I don't think there's a pattern to the set times. How many total pieces have you added? A lot of people on my team have won after 110, 130, 150 pieces, etc. I few of us won at less than 50 at the beginning.

But I'm sure you're doing this to build bicycles for Ghana and intend to keep doing it after you win anyway;). Keep adding five pieces a day and you're likely to get something before it ends. (Don't add them all at once if you want the best odds).

Absolutely right! Even those on my team who've already won still play every day to build the bikes!

My screen froze half way thru the process and the tv said part#102/100. That is so odd.

I am also winless in the contest but at least it is for a good cause that is the only reason I go thru the painful process.

It really doesn't need to be painful. You don't even need to watch the animation. Enter a code and when you get to the loading page you're free to build again, If you win it will happen BEFORE the "we believe in joy..." screen, and a part counts as added as soon as you enter a UPC, even if you don't watch the animation. :). Not painful at all!

Absolutely right! Even those on my team who've already won still play every day to build the bikes!



It really doesn't need to be painful. You don't even need to watch the animation. Enter a code and when you get to the loading page you're free to build again, If you win it will happen BEFORE the "we believe in joy..." screen, and a part counts as added as soon as you enter a UPC, even if you don't watch the animation. :). Not painful at all!

Thank you for the update I had no idea when you would find out if you won. That is great then I will enter while doing other things. I did have a forgetful streak but I have been entering everyday for a few weeks and I just signed up my boyfriend and I am entering for him as well to help get more bikes built. If I win or not I plan to continue building.

TIP: Do NOT enter all 5 entries in a row. Random times for the wins, the first eligible entry after that time wins so doing all 5 entries in one minute just wastes 4 entries.

Thanks Mits... you are very kind.

I was excited to win it and I think it's a great shirt, but there's no way it would ever fit me, so it's no use sitting in a drawer in my dresser where I'll never ever wear it.... might as well give it to someone who wants it and can actually get some use out of it! I'm glad you like it.

I won a Trek shirt too... but again, it won't fit me, because the smallest size was a medium... so I've already promised to give that one away too!
