U: Update on All Gather Things

October 02, 2007 02:43 PM EDT
views: 66 | comments: 117
Update: This is a gather update.  I have 474 points and 193 connections.  It seems
unlikely that I only have to have 7 more people til 200 connections.  If you are so
unfortunate as to be reading this and are not my connection, please don't be
unkind. Connect with me. The alphabet series will come to an end soon. I'm already on
u as you can see.  V, W, X, Y, and Z are all I have left.  Also, I'm trying to, however,
unlikely, build my points up so that I can get a gift card for someone for Christmas.
Undoubtedly, some of you have tips, comments. or ways that I can do that faster. I won't
undervalue what you have to say.  How do you earn the most points you can? This
undertaking of the u article has been exhausting so I'll leave it at that.

Hello---I like the new feature of not having to refresh between comments.

Dancing with my Dream (Vote Round Two)"
Tracey E. Oct 2, 2007, 2:52pm EDT
Hello,

I am already one of your 193 friends.
Good luck on earning GC for your friend..that is nice to do that.
I can't help you with any tips as I am still trying to figure out how people earn hundreds of points per day and I just plug along and get about 30 - 50 points per day.
i just post and reply and play games.
Tracey E. Oct 2, 2007, 2:52pm EDT
I love that we no longer have to refresh after posting.
This sure speeds up the process and makes it so much faster.
Tracey E. Oct 2, 2007, 2:52pm EDT
gift cards and points rock !!!
Tracey E. Oct 2, 2007, 2:53pm EDT
I just wish there were an easier way to publish to certain groups so that we don't keep having ot go through that long list of groups.

Hi Sarah
Shannon W Oct 2, 2007, 2:58pm EDT
We're connected (thank you for your comment on my article) but I thought I'd leave a few comments
Shannon W Oct 2, 2007, 2:59pm EDT
Hopefully it will help towards getting you some more points
Shannon W Oct 2, 2007, 2:59pm EDT
We just got back from the store a little while ago and I'm beat.
Shannon W Oct 2, 2007, 2:59pm EDT
I had an overflowing cart, then after that I had to go get my Mom at Walmart so I went in a got a couple more things.
Shannon W Oct 2, 2007, 3:00pm EDT
I'd be happy never to see a grocery store again.
Shannon W Oct 2, 2007, 3:00pm EDT
Or at least for a few days :)
Shannon W Oct 2, 2007, 3:00pm EDT
I hope you have a good day :)
Chelle M. Oct 2, 2007, 3:00pm EDT
Hi! I don't think we are connected yet.... but I can change that quickly!
Chelle M. Oct 2, 2007, 3:01pm EDT
OK, I did my part to change it! =)
The Red Headed Witch of Gather G. Oct 2, 2007, 3:03pm EDT
I don't have nearly as many connections as you do!
Esther IS Flesh and Blood S. Oct 2, 2007, 3:14pm EDT
Good luck on getting that gift card for a friend. I think you still have time to get one before Christmas if you keep on keepin' on!

I sent you a connect invite to help you through.

Esther is flesh and blood

Also I have several groups that you may or maynot want to join:

"I'm not a number"
"We don't care where you are supposed to post it"
"Party Girls Unite"

other two but they are rather specific in nature. The ones listed are post it all groups!
wiaka's just ... curious Oct 2, 2007, 3:39pm EDT
Sarah when people comment on one of your articles click on their name and return the favor, when you keep doingthis you will get more points when people return toyour sight because they know you willsupport them too.

Blessings
Dena A. Oct 2, 2007, 3:44pm EDT

Dena A. Oct 2, 2007, 3:47pm EDT
I have been on here for a few days ... and I have something like 580 points or so .. getting excited I am close to 600 ..
However my ultimate goal is to get the home depot cards .. $50 and more ..
Habitat for humanity is helping me to build a house and I want the cards to buy some things I need for it .. and some tools I can use to help maintain it....
I will support you and do all I can do :)
Just visit my site and give me some feedback from time to time. I have posted some of my poems and such and some games.
Dena A. Oct 2, 2007, 3:49pm EDT
I work in an office all day .. so I got lots of time to spend on here ... when it is slow!
Dena A. Oct 2, 2007, 3:49pm EDT
good luck on the points .. hope I was able to help!
Todd .. Oct 2, 2007, 4:04pm EDT

one word per comment that is a sentence is not allowed on Gather.
Heather C. Oct 3, 2007, 6:58am EDT
I used to do this, but not since I found out it is considered spam.
Heather C. Oct 3, 2007, 6:58am EDT
As long a it is a sentence, you can post it unless you a playing a game.
Heather C. Oct 3, 2007, 6:59am EDT
Only in games can you give a one word per comment answer!
Donna Marie G. Oct 3, 2007, 10:32am EDT
I'm not sure I'm connected, but here goes a comment. If this is a game in which a word has to be posted beginning with a "U", well, how about...... UNDERWEAR! I only saw one other "U" word, 2nd post by April: Useful. Good luck!
Stephen H. Oct 3, 2007, 3:42pm EDT
U definutely have a way with wurds. U rock Saruh! Like all those U's? Stephun
Trish A. Oct 3, 2007, 6:12pm EDT
I think longer comments help in getting more points. I read a time back that Gather was trying to avoid the short responses.

I wish you the best in getting your cards. Times are tight and money isn't flowing free. I'm hoping to earn at least 2 gift cards before Christmas so I will have them for family members. After Christmas I may even save one card for myself so I can buy some books written by fellow Gatherers.

I agree it is always helpful and thoughtful to respond to comments on your own articles. In fact that's why I'm here today. Thanks for your comment!
