WTF??

umm, no 7am on 11/13 is not the same day as 10am on 11/12!

The rules are pretty clear. One entry per 24 hour interval.

First try last night. I got a text message that said I did not win.

Last year it took me about 10 trys and I did win a free ticket which I used. Thank you Stratton. I figure they made out OK because I brought my son and we paid for his ticket, plus we bought lunch, grabbed a snack at the Waffle Haus, and had dinner in the base village before hitting the road. Without the free ticket we would probably not have been there.

Year before I filled out a survery for a free ticket and never used it.

From the rules:

Regardless of method of entry, limit one (1) entry per person/per day. For the purposes of these Rules, a day is defined as each 24-hour period during the Promotion Period starting at 12:00 a.m. EST and ending at 11:59 p.m. EST, except that the day ends at 5:00 pm EST on February 18, 2009.

That's pretty clear to me.

That tripped me up too.

Do you read the contracts on the rental cars before you sign each one? We all get lazy, and it bites sometime

welcome to 2003.

 

[tequiladoug]

right...11/12/08 12am to 11:59:59pm is a "24 hour period", and then 11/13/08 12am to 11:59:59 pm is another "24 hour period"

try 1 =10am 11/12 and then try 2 = 7am 11/13 -> 2 DIFFERENT "24 hour periods"

 

[pepperdawg]

10am to 7am next day =21 hours no?

 

[billski]

10am to 7am next day =21 hours no?

either we are debating semantics or are math challenged here.

As Belushi said, "what you want for nothin? Rubber biscuit?

I got MY ticket...

 

[hardline]

dirt cheap. i think it was like $15 per night or something stupid like that. one night we were there and a bus load of school kids showed up. it was dumping snow and we were jumping off the roof into snow banks and having snowball fights with the kids. The next morning we went outside and found out the bus driver left the storage compartments unlocked and somebody made off with all the kids skis!! :blink: sucked to be them.

when i was young i have some great memories of stratton. we still have friends that have condos there. there also some crazy parties we went to durring the us open durring college.

"Sorry, u already entered today"

Hey all,

The "once per day" requirement is intended to function in the "calendar day" sense. In other words, if you entered last night at 11:00pm, then you should be able to enter again now without waiting until 11 tonight. (Note: this is all Eastern Time.)

So, if you're getting the "Sorry, u already entered today" system response, and you're certain that you haven't entered more than once per calendar day, please send me your mobile phone number via direct message, and I'll forward it on to the developers.
