Our Nipa Hut

Before I gave you more updates regarding the contest, let me share with you some of my fondest memories with regards to roof. Why roof? Oh well, blame it to heat. it reminds us our home back int eh province. Our house then was made a Nipa Hut. Yup, I experienced living in a Nipa Hut. Our roofing was made out of grass, and my mother sometimes hire professional roofing contractor to repair it. She says, it is very important that our roof was checked and repaired. Since our roof were made out of grass, proper installations should be done with much care. Only professionals can do that.

Roof is one of the most important part of the house. Think of it as the crowning glory of a structure. It adds up to the beauty of the house and also protects the house from heat and rain. So why would you compromise your security blanket? Why not hire a professional roofing contractor for your roofing repairs? You can be assured that the quality of service is good and that your roof is in good hands.

Our roof then lasted a little longer although it was made out of grass, the professional roofing contractors did a good job on repairing the roof. When time comes and I have my own house, I will surely put a nipa house on my garden.

Contest Points As Of March 8

Cut-off time was 12:00 pm PHT (UTC/GMT +8 hours), so any URL commented after that time was not counted. Also, please note that this update still DOES NOT include points for your comments on the major sponsors’ and second level sponsors’. Apparently, counting those will take much longer than we expected because of coordination issues. Nothing serious, really, just timezone differences. Anyways, we will update this update (imagine that!) tomorrow when we have managed to secure all the number of comments from the concerned sponsors. So as the following numbers will show, it’s still anybody’s game! Here are the top ten pointers as of March 8, 2010 12:00 pm PHT:

1. Red – 1530
2. Gene – 1480
3. Kikamz – 1410
4. Mys – 1250
5. Niko -1230
6. Sherry – 1100
7. Chris – 970
8. Joan – 830
9. Kasai – 780
10. Paula – 600

Compared to the last update, there are three newcomers, as you can see, and Mys was the only one who kept her stand at number four, and all the others have shuffled positions. We will say this, though: referral points count for much. And again, as mentioned in several of my posts in the past, we will make public a private blog that we made specially for the contest where we keep all your commented URLs (basically the contest score sheet) for transparency purpose.

Another Update!

Now that the contest is about to end, you’re in for another surprise! We are gonna change the referral system. Now, you can GAIN points for your referrals. Every referral is 50 points! Refer 5 contestants and you will gain 400 points (yes not 250 but 400!)

So? Tell your friends to join the contest and tell them to mention you as their referral. Joining the contest is now easy as pie, er, no, easier than that. See?

Step 1: Open your dashboard and create a new post, titled it with anything you want

Step2: Copy the codes that can be found HERE

Step 3: Publish your post and copy the url or link location then comment the url HERE

Step 4: Create a new post in your blog and copy the codes that can be found HERE.

Step 5: Publish it and copy the url and comment the url HERE.

The contest will end on March 18, 2010.

PS: Yes, rewards are converted to points now. So no more cash for referrals. Instead, we will award 50 points per referral which will add up to your total points. We found out that offering cash as incentive didn’t really motivate our contestants into referring, but when we announced the points incentive, several people immediately came forward to say their referral was this blogger and that. I hope you get our logic for changing the rules late in the game. As always, our only motive behind the referral system is to get as much backlinks as possible for our lovely sponsors, so whatever brings in additional contestants, we will implement.
