It took me ages to get to the end of this - then it asked me 2 more questions re the Ford Territory - told me that I moved my position manually (I didn't) and that I had to start again.  :(

I actually got through pretty quickly...  I probably learnt more about home reno than anything else...  Maybe I should enter one of those reality building shows!  If I enter this comp a few more times, I seriously might be able to!!! :lol:

Hi, yes I had different questions to answer as well including:

Which model has a diesel engine- both,
What the towing capacity of the vehicle is- 2700kg
How many internal compartments there are - 30
and if you can add wall paper to a toilet - no!  :D


Title: Re: Play game to win cash plus instant win prizes
Post by: JRN on Wednesday 31 August 2011, 09:59:17 pm
This comp has 500 instant wins.  It takes time and effort to play, higher chance of a win.


Title: Re: Play game to win cash plus instant win prizes
Post by: Chichi on Thursday 01 September 2011, 06:29:48 am
More info from the T&C:  Entrants may play the game as many times as they like however, only one instant win prize per person is permitted (SA residents are entitled to win more than one prize). In the event that an entrant wins more than one instant prize, the first instant prize won will be awarded and the remaining prizes will be drawn. Entrants will only be entered into the weekly and major prize draw once per day.


About winning an instant prize, I was thinking that perhaps it happened at the end of the game but it didn't - for me it happened halfway through when my car went up a ladder and then I had the instant win screen of a $100 fuel card.

My winning email then says that I'm the winner of a card and gives the claim number but the image under that is not showing up on the email ....I've used Hotmail and Chrome and the image still isn't showing so will have to contact Channel Ten.

Channel Ten have rung me back and said that for anyone getting an instant win (a confirming email with an image that doesn't appear), the image is just to make the email look nice - all they require is your claim number when they ring in a month's time to check on your claim!

I've had exactly the same problem today. I've completed the game on three different occasions in the last three hours and keep getting the 'position moved manually. Start the game again' message!!

Am playing game daily with no problems, no wins either.

To stop going down the ladder (electrical cord) just get the answer wrong and it will let you roll the dice again.  Saves a lot of hair pulling!

Has anyone been able to roll a 6?
Of all the times I've played, I've never seen one come up.


Title: Re: Play game to win cash plus instant win prizes
Post by: zertzz on Thursday 15 September 2011, 10:46:37 pm
Never had a 6 either.

Post by: kazz on Thursday 15 September 2011, 11:11:55 pm
to those that have won? was it after playing several times in the one day? or can you only win from the daily entry? and after that its a waste of time?
cause ive sat there and had a dozen games in a row and often wondered if im wasting my time?

I've had exactly the same problem today. I've completed the game on three different occasions in the last three hours and keep getting the 'position moved manually. Start the game again' message!!  No problem the 2nd time.
Same problem for me today for the first time. It has frozen previously, or you sit on END thinking you've finished but it asks another question.  So I clicked on 'report a bug' down the bottom of the screen and reported the glitch. Now I'm wondering if when it froze I missed out on an instant win.  Didn't even realise there were instant prizes. Duh.

It says you can play as many times as you want but only 1 entry for the $10,000 per day

Is anyone else having trouble with this game? I am definitely entering correct answers and it tells me my responses are wrong. For example, I select an answer B which is correct and then it says my answer is incorrect and the answer is TRUE (when there wasn't even a True/False option!). I had the same issues yesterday.


Title: Re: Play game to win cash plus instant win prizes
Post by: mnew9 on Monday 26 September 2011, 07:43:48 pm
Still having problems with this game!  :(

Tonight I reached the finish of the game but still got the graphic that asked me to roll the dice again. I waited five minutes hoping it would correct itself but nothing else happened. In desperation I rolled the dice again and then received the message that I had moved "manually" and that I would have to start the game again! I completed the game THREE times but kept getting the same problem. Very frustrating!

I have sent an email to Channel 10 telling them of the problems I've encountered.

I've only had the manual problem once but the way my computer has a near on melt down every time I try to play I'm lucky if I enter it only once a day, usually if it freezes things for more than 10 minutes I give up  :?

Hi
I didn't know there were instant wins or that you could play more than once.  What are the instant win prizes I wonder?

Hi
I didn't know there were instant wins or that you could play more than once.  What are the instant win prizes I wonder?

There are 500 instant win prizes given out randomly and I THINK they are fuel gift cards but Im not entirely sure. I've never won instantly on this and only play once a day max. But thankfully Ive never experienced the technical problems members are saying about. That would be annoying!


Title: Re: Play game to win cash plus instant win prizes

they are fuel cards and bunnings vouchers.. i've been having issues lately with my computer freezing when i try to load the page

Fuel cards for BP, if anyone was wondering.

Post by: Cruisy on Saturday 08 October 2011, 07:23:45 pm
I had an instant win fuel card on my second play of the day a few days ago. I usually only play once, but if I have time I'll have a few goes. Never had any issues with freezing, I play on Firefox. I usually answer a question wrong on purpose to avoid going down a "snake" to finish the game a bit quicker. Instant win was about the second line from the top, so it isn't just ladders that it can happen on, it's anywhere.
Good luck and keep trying, not long until it finishes. :)
