Viggle App: Get rewards for watching television!

[diznee25]

DisneyEater, Good to hear. I have seen a few BK 50 point ads in the past hour. Guess that's something!


Yea, I was just thumbing through the Featured shows and saw The Middle listed at 100 points. That has to be the lowest amount of bonus points yet. Hopefully it's not a sign of things to come.

I don't care how the points break down per show, but I hope the bonus points total per night keeps around the 2,000 point mark.

Sigh, maybe I spoke too soon. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong, but it looks like tonights Featured Shows equal only 1,125 points!

Since all the shows are wrapping up for the season, maybe this is what it'll be like until September?

ETA: Modern Family is back on the list at 175! Now we're hitting about 1300 for tonight!

Yea, doesn't look like a good night at all. Wonder how the summer is going to take it with alot of shows done. Although we had a few new shows like America Talent that started last week but isn't on there this week...

The point count for most shows is so dismally low - especially during the day. Ugh!

Yea...So you think you can dance is starting up, so that'll possibly be 2x a week once it gets going but...There really might just not be much for the summer

 

[diznee25]

True Blood starts up next month. And Viggle posted something about this show on FB a couple months ago....so I would assume that means it'll show up on the Featured Shows list.

That's when summer officially starts for me, when a new season of True Blood starts up!

Interesting topic on Viggle's FB page about "ad smashing" and accounts getting banned. Viggle basically advised everyone to spread out their ad watching through the day. Slamming ads in short amount of times could flag your account. Viggle will reinstate your account until your 3rd strike. Once your account has been flagged 3 times, that's it. That account is closed for good.

Sounds like Viggle is really trying to put the bakes on "ad smashing."

Certainly not a problem for those of us who are getting ads anyway!

I think Viggle is trying to push people into playing their Viggle Live for more points. It seems to be a goal of theirs. And I got banned a few days ago for the first time. I took the Americas Top model quiz about 8 timejustness than 200 points total--but they were close together because answering a question is a lot quicker than watching a TV show. So watch out for that.

THis is so stupid. If they don't want you to do something then put it in the freaking rules, or program the app not to allow you to do it! Geez...

On the bonus shows - if you check in when the show is almost over (less than 10 minutes left of airtime), do you still get the bonus points?

You have to be checked in for a full 10 minutes to get bonus points.

I didn't see this on their facebook page but how can we space out our ads throughout the day when I don't get any ads during the day. I get a few in the morning and maybe one every 1-2 hours after that. From 3:00 on I usually don't see any ads.

Viggle did not post this as a "main" topic. It was a response to other posters under one of the headings....If I can remember which one, I'll dig it up.

But yea like I said, it doesn't matter for those of us who aren't getting ads anyway!

Exactly. You can only spread out ads if you get a consistent flow through the day. But ads only appear in spurts, which is why everyone pounds them out when they see them.

Ok, I feel a little uncomfortable posting strangers FB statements, but I need to because Viggle deleted their own post! The comment that Viggle made about spacing out ads is gone....but here are a few comments that came after that:

Saying that we need to "space out the ad watching throughout the day" is a very subjective target.

Viggle either needs to figure out how to only enable a set amount of ads per user or set specific guidelines on ads per day/hour, act… as well as a way to let a user know when he is reaching the limit.

If you provide ads back to back people watch them.... Even yourself told people to take advantage of ads when you get them. Contradicting yourself now... Pick one or the other. And if ads have been added they are no where to be found.

That's a ridiculously vague policy.

These are responses to Viggle stating that we should space out ads through the day. Maybe they deleted their post because they realize that it's impossible for us to do that. We have no control when we get ads!

Anyway this subject is at the top of FB page, under Viggle TV: Weds May 23rd.

Even though I did not get Viggle's statement word for word, the first quote I copied and pasted from a stranger on FB pretty much quoted one of the lines from Viggle's post.

 

[diznee25]

For anyone curious, this is the comment that lead Viggle to post what they did:

There have been lots of ads. Are people still getting suspended for clicking them, or is that a rumor?

This question lead Viggle to suggest that we space out our ad watching through the day. And they went on talking about how if your account is flagged, that Viggle will reinstate it, no problems. But once your account has been banned 3 times, you are done.

i too have been getting like 2 5pt ads a day lately and thats it! no ads in shows, just on the main scroll through .... any good key words to search lately gaterades still around in search? thanks!

 

[girli565]

How do you get so many points during the Viggle Live? My mom just started viggling and she mentioned that she answers the same questions multiple times. I don't see that when I play live. I usually just see the one question every 3-4 minutes.

I have not seen the Gatorade ads in almost a week now. Not sure if they are just harder to find, or if that advertisement run is over....When Gatorade ads do exist, you see them under sports stuff; NBA, soccer, MLB, etc.

DH and I have been doing Viggle Live on a nightly basis now, due to the lack of ads. We get 1 question every 4 minutes. 30 minute shows have 6 questions, and one hour shows give 8 questions. That's what I'm seeing in my points history anyway.

I only do shows I know. It's a waste of time to wait 4 minutes for each question if you get them wrong.
