I have found and reported errors in Frequency in a couple of sweeps posted. The sweeps were listed in One Entry when they should have been put in Daily. Also, most other sweep sites list the Entry Limit. For example: One Per Person, One Per Household, One Per Person Per Email Address, One Per Person Per Day, etc. My suggestion may solve both problems. When listing sweeps, mod or member would look for and post both Limit of Entry as well Frequency. Most of the time, they are together anyway. By seeking both out, it would help the poster find the correct Frequency. The Entry Limit is a necessity for households with more than one sweeper or if one sweeper has many email addresses. My suggestion would cut out errors and add a very, very useful feature for a few extra seconds of work. Thanks for considering this.

The sweepstakes are already categorized by frequency. Sometimes, a sweepstakes is posted in the wrong category; but if you submit a comment to the posted sweepstakes with the correct frequency, a moderator will change it.

:smt006 I think I am just so grateful that they take the time to list the sweeps that they do. It's nice when they do list that info but when I want to know I read the rules on my own time and post a note to myself.

poette - I try to cover all that info when I add a sweeps - like per HH, on PST, etc. and for the others, I post it to the comments/use the CONTACT US form or click the | Broken Link | and report any discrepancy & it is quickly corrected.

We now note limits in the body of the listing:

I know I myself make mistakes in frequency submitting, but I try to catch them before they go, and sometimes that just doesnt happen ! I forget to change screens when I am on one entry sweeps..and that daily gets snuck in there.. Big sighhh !! But I think my own ratio is pretty good for all the work I do. As for the rules, If the entry limit (Once,IW,ect is ok..the rest of the rules is up to you all to read , but as for any sweep, ya should read all rules anyway), as I am posting 50-60 things a day, and thats alot of editing anyhow. That would be like posting the start and end time to the minute...that is a waste of my time. It is members who do catch the mistakes and bring them to our attention that make this a very nice sweep site, if ya ask me, and keep the info as correct as possible.
