GIVEAWAY: Wii!!!!
12/31/2008 Posted by Admin
March 14, 2009: And so this also ends. This is the last time I'll post for the Nintendo Wii giveaway. Just as with the iPod Touch giveaway, I've enjoyed every minute of it, all the enthusiasm, and I hope you have, too. In three months, this giveaway also peaked at over a million entries, most via email and Twitter (especially Twitter), and many with comments. Every one of them counts as one entry. On Tuesday, I will pick one winner at random. We now have FOUR days left on this contest, so if you haven't been playing, start catching up!
Here's the last update on the giveaway.
First the TWITTER TWIST: Winning never has been easier, though you do have to be a member of Twitter to play.
For those on Twitter, here’s a way to add an extra edge.
- Follow me on Twitter.
- Tweet the following message to your followers:
The Nintendo Wii contest is ending! I've entered! You can win by following @WeekinRewind and retweet. http://xr.com/h4z He follows back too!That's it! Please leave a comment here to let everyone know that you're in it to win it! Soooooooo easy! And I'll follow everybody who follows the Week in Rewind Twitter account.
------------------------------------
TRADITIONAL PLAY: Don't want to Twitter? No problem. As with the iPod Touch Giveaway and with the Playstation 3 Twitter Giveaway, we are also making winning the iPod Touch easy. Just go to the A-Z directory on the right margin and start clicking through the listings until you find a variation of the words "iPod Touch" in a phrase at the end of the review.
But here's a twist: Send me all the reviews in which the word appears in the S, T, L, M, R, P, A, B, C, H, E, W and V sections. LOOK FOR THEM AND EMAIL THE ANSWERS.
IF YOU ALREADY KNOW, NO NEED TO LOOK--JUST SEND ME THE ANSWERS.
The word will be in red. Once you find them all, go to this page, fill out the information, send me an email with the names of the listings that have "iPod Touch" at the end of the review, and you'll be in it to win it!
DO NOT REVEAL TO ANYONE THE LOCATION OF THE WORDS. DO NOT POST THE LOCATIONS ANYWHERE ON THIS SITE.
The contest ends on March 17, 2009, and the Wii will be shipped overnight to the winner. I'll post the winner's name (with their permission) on March 18, 2009.
Good luck!
Christopher
