Free Ipod Mini Conga
 
OFFICIAL RULES

This thread is for people who properly used this conga line to create a FreeiPod.com account. If you already have a FreeiPod.com account from another source, DO NOT POST YOUR REFERRAL LINK HERE.

From now on, any referral link posts that do not follow the rules below will be ignored.


ALL credit for this offer goes to bhatnasx - an FTer in the true sense of the word. Three cheers for him!

OFFER DETAILS:
This is a confirmed way to get your choice of: a 4GB iPod, a 20GB iPod, or a $250 iTunes gift certificate.

Each person listed needs 5 people's help & each of those 5 people will need 5 other people's help to get this.

Basically, this is how it functions.
  • Use the first link in this post as a referral to sign up at freeipod.com
  • Post your link, along with the name of the person whose link you used AND THE OFFER COMPLETED, to this thread.
  • I will add your name and link at the bottom and soon enough, it will be your turn.

That's it. Simple!

Rules
  • PLEASE use the first name on the list as referral and sign up
  • Please do NOT PM me with a request to add you to the line.
  • You MUST post the name you used as referral AND THE OFFER COMPLETED along with your own link to be included in the line AND THE OFFER COMPLETED.
  • You MUST NOT start a new thread or else it WILL be closed and you will be declared persona non-grata on this thread. Earlier mistakes were genuine mistakes and are excused.
  • After you get 5 people to sign up using your referral (not 5 who complete the offer), please post here so the line can move on. I understand that not everyone bats 100 so if you feel you must wait till you have 6 or 7 sign-ups, that's OK but please pass on the line so everyone gets a chance. If you get screwed, the community will help you.
  • Friendly tip: I would highly recommend seeking friends and family to help you to attain 5 referrals. Once it is your turn on the conga, please let us know how many more referrals you need.
  • New Rule: I will be PM'ing the next three persons in the conga line to verify s/he is still around. I will also find out how many referrals s/he needs in order to fulfill his/her requirements.

ANYONE WHO DOESN'T RESPOND TO MY PM WITHIN 72 HOURS WILL BE TEMPORARILY REMOVED FROM THE CONGA. YOU WILL BE REMOVED FROM THE CONGA IF THERE IS NO REPLY WITHIN 7 DAYS!

Therefore, make sure you have a valid e-mail address entered in your profile, and that you receive notices of new PMs.


PLEASE NOTE: YOU MUST POST WHOSE LINK YOU USED IF YOU'RE SIGNING UP AND WISH ME TO ADD YOU TO THIS POST -

I WON'T ADD PEOPLE (FROM HERE ON OUT) WHO DON'T POST WHO THEY USE AND WHO DON'T FOLLOW THE LINE - SORRY - THE ORDER ISN'T BEING KEPT & THAT'S NOT FAIR TO THE FT'ERS WHO HAVE KEPT THE ORDER


Once someone has 5 completed offers from referrals (in other words, qualified for iPod), please post the names of the people who used your link - it is a simple recognition of the fact and maintains the fellowship of the community

The only way this can effectively work is if everyone who is interested in this offer, legitimately does it in order. Once 5 people have posted that they have completed it - Person 1, P2, P3, P4, P5 - the next 5 persons interested should use P1 & then the next 5 use P2 and so on - I realize that this requires an exponential increase for people to get their free iPods, but at the same time, I think it'll work out if some people use their friends & family members.

PLEASE NOTE

If, after being added to the referral list, you post your referral link in a new post seeking to skip the line, you will lose your place on the list, and won't be added back.

Also, welcome to Flyertalk to all the newbies who registered just for this thread!

:-: PLEASE FOLLOW THE APPROPRIATE ORDER, USING THE FIRST LINK BELOW TO SIGN UP :-:


Thanks and good luck

baba Aug 4, 2004 10:20 pm

I'm in
I signed up for VP

My referral link is http://www.freeiPods.com/default.aspx?referer=7720550

my address [email protected]

VP. Aug 4, 2004 11:03 pm

I'm just wondering if I need to report when I have the 5 referrals on my account, or if the moderator is going to keep track of it. Also, do the users just need to sign up following my link to be eligible, or do they need to actually complete an offer too...currently neither have completed the offer...not that they won't, I'm just wanting a bit of clarification on the procedure. Thanks :)

EDIT: Sorry I skimmed over the person who said they completed the AOL offer. I'm guessing some of the offers don't complete instantly then? I know ancestry.com completed instantly for me, but I'm not sure about the other offers...

renofett Aug 4, 2004 11:14 pm

Wow. So I have like a bunch of people under the status 'Joined, but offer not completed'. Been like that for days. Almost a week. I used the freeipod site to contact them about it. No response yet. I know some of these people HAD to have completed offers. What the hell is going on. It's getting really irritating. I hope this conga picks up and moves a lil faster, it should, thanks to the new and much improved design by jfe. Kudos. :D. I should really refer people to the site, although spamming my referral link seems more self-helping, hehe. Nah, I'll point people here. If every1 else does the same. Lets get this ball rolling...coz according to my calculations, if everyone on the conga line gets 2 referrals on their own, and only needs 3 from here, that still leaves 450 people that need to join this conga line with a new account on freeipods.com for the last person on this list to get his offers completed. That is of course also assuming that no1 gets their referrals before their turn is up and drops out of the conga...also if no1 replies to the PM's, although it seems most people are...Guestimating about 300 people need to join this conga for us all to be winners. Not that it isn't possible...Pyramids can get pretty large. I've been trying my best to get my referrals other places as well, I suggest you all do the same as this will speed up the process for everyone here and be quicker for yourselves. BTW do NOT spam anything on ipodhacks.com forum, it's really useless @ this point as no1 clicks the links anymore and its really bugging the people who use the forum (i.e., me). Don't beg or give a sad story or make it sound like we've never heard of this before, coz its been posted 9000 times on the site. You can spam other forums though, I don't really care :D (Oh, except Flyertalk forums. Yeh that'd be not good.)
oops this ran a little long...sorry jfe. Nice layout for the thread though :).

my needs
 
i allso still need 5 to update my name

VenomizedCobra Aug 5, 2004 12:40 am

VP, in the past people have been just assuming that the status will change to completed soon which is good unless the moderator says otherwise. If you have enought referalls to get to a completed status eventually (when all the referalls from flyertalk's status' change to completed), post to the board that you are done. If for some reason one of these referalls flake after a while and the status never changes to completed, report to a moderator and they will add your link back to the top un order for you to complete your referalls. I think this is the best way because it helps others in the community to move the conga forward as fast as possible.

ALSO, I don't know if it is a good idea for everybody to post how many referalls they need left onto the board, that would be 150 unneccesary posts! jfe has them in his pm box so he just needs some time to update (be patient)

christinemelanie Aug 5, 2004 2:16 am

an update from me
 
i only need 4 more people as of right now. i have a couple people signed up as signed up but offer not completed. been posting my link everywhere on my journal! it helped a lot. so if you're part of some online community, post it! :)
