    Trivia and Contests Free Play Backlog

    There is an excellent chance that more mods will have the ability to issue Free Plays early next week after maybe a half-day of training. Once that happens, we can blast through the backlog for both contests and trivia, hopefully being caught up be end of next week

    Good news LT! I just won today's myself, I think I'm owed for 5 of them total, would be nice to be able to lose them faster in the sportsbook like I always do

    You need training to issue free plays? I can do it for free if SBR needs help.

    I won 4 or 5 60pt, lost count, think I got them. Last 3 or 4 don't even load, get an error message. Didn't bother with it, figured it was part of the transition.

    Got it. So the problem is not the manpower but the software is not accessible by the current moderators? This looks more complicated than I thought.

    Apparently they’re issued via an app that none of us currently have access to. So unfortunately we’re all stuck until at least one or two of us are provided the ability to issue them.

    We’ll get there. I’m just not sure there was a proper list of things that needed to be sorted out that was handed over to the new owners so they may have been unaware and caught by surprise.

    This site has many moving parts and I’m not sure they were prepared for it but slowly and surely. We can only hope anyway.

    Appreciate the update but when will the points actually be worth something again? Not much excitement in betting with play money

    See Optional's post, store will re-open at some point after New Year's

    EDIT: A link would probably help LOL

    Thanks for the update LT! I received a couple of them, believe I'm still missing a few...All good though!
    Hope everything works out for you and the other mods!
    peaked at a few of the other "competing sites" MEH... Nothing compares to the setup here...easy flow/read of forums.. the contest, sportsbook (and yes the points...) Love the fact that you can do a donation to charities.... and hope they all come back!

    All look easy in front of the screen, but an issue in the back end could cost you months

    No, they need to know you are reliable, responsible, vaccinated and pay your taxes.

    Rudy can’t get hired anywhere. He probably has “SBR Poster” on his resume.

    So we are looking into next year now into issuing the free plays for trivia and contests?

    It appears I got some freeplays awarded to me today.

    I believe I was owed 5 or 6 trivias + one from the supercontest a couple weeks ago, and I think they awarded me with 3 of the trivias so that's good - clearly they are attempting to fix things I think!
