On a sad note, May marks 1 year since the passing of our wonderful group member, Bill. He was a blessing to us and is sadly missed. Though I believe he would be proud how many have carried on the knowledge and “tricks of the trade” that he taught us.

Anyone else excited to see that a field for “number of entries” has been added to the prize entry pages? Woohoo – batch entry!
-
@kateivan That is good news! I was prepared to let over 2 million points expire because I don’t have the time to spend redeeming one entry at a time. It looks like the maximum number is 5 entries at one time, but that will help quite a bit. Thanks for mentioning it because I don’t think I would have checked for myself.
-
I sent a msg to Greg on this only a week ago. Great news. I have been able to input more than 5 by just typing in a number. I think the max is 20, but I could be wrong; I am running out of points testing this. I also could click on up to 3 times. This is wonderful, it was a complete waste of time doing in 1 at a time.
-
Be sure to watch the point total on the “redeemed points” sections. Before I noticed that you could process more than 1, one day, I processed 2 individually, and 1 with 5 for a total of 7 submissions. The total on my points reflected 3 entries equal to the amount of the 5 submissions. ie: I posted 1 - 1000, 1 - 1000, and 1 5000. My entries showed 3 submissions of 5000 points each instead of 1000, 1000, 5000. Hope this makes sense to everyone.

@vickib
Something is wrong with the system when entering multiple chances in the new window.
I have been working to use points one entry per submit…
Record shows line after line of single entries…
Finally see this new option for multiple chances so put in 200 on. 1500 point prize…record shows 300,000 points used!!
Then I see that all the previous single entries on this item now show 300,000 points instead of the 1500 originally used.
I haven’t added up all the points this is using but it’s got to be 100 times more than I have to spend !!
Sent Greg a message about this last night but no answer yet…
So much for the "NEW PROGRAM " being an improvement

Phone: 817 390-7011 | eMail: ccooper@star-telegram.comOur development team is aware of the Redeem Points not correctly posting since the multiple entry option was added. The correct number of points are deducted from your account and you are entered the correct number of times, so it is a display problem on the My Activities page they are working to correct.
As long as you have enough points available, there is no limit to the number you enter in multiple entries. We may at a limit after May 30th when the large number of points transferred from BeeBuzz are used.
