Post by: brat on February 18, 2016, 08:38:34 PM: When you link in from here, it's recorded as "incoming" on their list. Then when you scroll down to 170 where UP is and click on that, it takes you back here and is recorded as "outgoing". May be wrong, but looking at the other sites stats, that appears to be the case. I think they are looking at "incoming" as a vote (it drives traffic to their site). Plus the incoming is less than the outgoing indicating that several of the same IP's have "visited" and then left again to the same site and the repeated "incoming" wasn't counted.

Post by: rah45 on February 19, 2016, 08:53:30 PM: I think it counted mine. Hard to tell.

If I win the patch, you may give it to someone who doesn't have one yet. I still have one I haven't used.

Post by: sledge on February 20, 2016, 07:54:23 AM: I think that I voted. I'm really not sure. It brought me back to here. I gave it my best shot. Hope it worked.
Title: Re: Help Out Unchainedpreppers - See How
Post by: JohnyMac on February 20, 2016, 08:26:15 AM: Thank you Sledge. Yes you voted. Once you click on our site link and return to the UP site that counts as 1 vote. If you back you can't vote but your return is counted. Ala 17 votes in (your one vote) 33 Votes out (Counting the number of times you return).

We are currently rated at 147th out of 176 sites. The goal is 76 votes which is 99th out of 176. With 550 Unchainedpreppers forum members, in theory we should be able to hit that number.

I asked my Face Book friends (The few I have) to vote too :tractor:

Thanks again to all who voted. :cheers:

Post by: JoJo on February 20, 2016, 11:50:21 AM: Was #7 when I voted.
Title: Re: Help Out Unchainedpreppers - See How
Post by: JohnyMac on February 20, 2016, 12:01:46 PM: Yes it floats higher based on frequency of votes. So if 10 folks within an hour vote it pops to the top vs a site that only gets 1 vote an hour; However over all I would like to get north of 100th hence 76 votes is the goal.

Thanks for voting JoJo :cheers:

Post by: JohnyMac on March 02, 2016, 10:50:55 AM: Thank you to all that voted and a special thank you for you folks who went outside this forum and encouraged family and friends to vote! :cheers:

This morning we were up to 64 votes and 103rd on the list. Have to have 7 more votes to hit the magic 100 threshold. I am sure over weeks we will hit that number.

I am on the road for the next couple of days. Once I get home (Fri/Sat) I will draw the three winners and mail out your UP morale patches.

Remember...Freedom Through Self-Reliance

So if the contest ended how can people still vote, why would they and what is the incentive?

I am missing out on something?

They might vote for the joy-joy feelings they would receive after having voted for our awesome little website.

Title: Re: Help Out Unchainedpreppers - See How
Post by: Nemo on March 04, 2016, 12:24:33 AM: OK, I guess I was not clear enough.

If the contest is ended, why is it possible for people to still vote-- the contest is over!?!? You cannot vote in a contest that is ended. ITS Over. Its not over till its over, BUT ITS OVER.

And if you can still vote, why, what good does it do, or is it just clicking a dead link for fun?

It seems to me there are things I do not understand in all of this.

The contest is over. You blowing smoke out your southern regions if you vote in an ended contest. Winning is over.

If it is not over, then its not over. See Above. Its over. And its over because its over. Isn't it?

I am very confused.

Title: Re: Help Out Unchainedpreppers - See How
Post by: special-k on March 04, 2016, 12:57:45 AM: The voting still continues at topprepperwebsites (TPW) for as long as the folks who run TPW wish.

Since UnchainedPreppers (UP) was late to the game in registering at TPW, we were at the bottom of the list. So UP staff decided to have a promotional contest in order to help us quickly move a few steps up the ladder.

In summary, UP held the contest...not TPW. The contest is now over. TPW is not in the contest business. TPW simply lists prepper oriented websites, in descending order corresponding with click counts generated from a unique link provided to each prepper oriented website when it registers at TPW. The link remains valid, even though our in-house contest has ended.
Title: Re: Help Out Unchainedpreppers - See How
Post by: Nemo on March 04, 2016, 10:48:14 PM: Awrite, I am gonnna be watching you! You throw an in house and a unique link with a TPW thats valid even though one ended.

Now you got me serious Confabulated!

I declare this discussion and my questions seeking answers to be over. And its over, because I SAID ITS OVER.

But I guess that does not affect the voting.

Or does it?

See, even more confabulated!
