Hello inter8ers!
text votes changes
A new weekly competition has just started, and we're updating the rules to make the competition more fair.
As you already know, we love real people with real identity. That's why we don't want to give any advantage to new, anonymous users who are voting by SMS. We prefer users who use a valid web profile to vote, as well as cell phone.
So… we're changing the SMS points distribution.
As of now, if the cell phone number is associated to a valid email address used for voting. First vote ever by SMS will be worth 15 points
• First vote in this weekly competition will be worth 9 points
• First vote per profile per week will be worth 5 points
• A SMS vote that is not attached to email address will be worth only 2 points.
Timing
Because of changes that were made during the champions league, each competition will begin and end on Sunday, at 22:00 UK time.
Yme video
Keep on sending us Yme videos! You can now use our uploader to upload your videos directly to us.
How does it work? Very simple!
When you're logged in, you'll see a new "Yme" link next to your e-mail address. Click on it, and fill in the video description. Then upload you're video and wait until it's up. It may take a few minutes, so don't close the inter8ing window.
Video bonuses
we will reward every new video with 80 pts!
After the first week, each existent video will give its creator a 25 pts bonus.
Best video Bonus
Every Thursday, inter8ing's community manager – Alizarin, will choose the best video of the week, and it will be given an additional 50 bonus points. It will be chosen for its quality, originality and popularity.
video standarts
1.We will only accept video clips and not slideshows (Presentations).
2.We want to see your face. We will only accept videos that don't show your face if it has a reasonable and original explanation.
3.The video must be clear, with correct lighting and sound sync.
4.It has to contain the word inter8ing in the video and in its title.
5.It has to be up to one minute long.
Video removal
Removing your video from YouTube during the competition will cause you a point penalty. If you want to remove your video from inter8ing, please inform us by mail Service@inter8ing.co.uk.
Enjoy the competition and don't forget to vote for us on Killer Startups!

And now, everybody is invited to participate the fresh new weekly competition!
we're on Killer-Start-up's top 10
Hello Inter8ers!
We have good news for you!
As you might remember, an item about inter8ing was published in "killerstartups.com" – a site that reviews and rates new startup companies.
Thanks to your help and ratings, inter8ing climbed up the charts and got into the top 10!
We also asked you to do a video to promote us on Killer Startups. Adam, Ash and Hannah made nice videos and we appreciate them a lot, but the coolest video was made by Daniel Dynamite.
You probably noticed that we are using this video in the voting flow. Therefore, Daniel will be rewarded 100$ for this video. You're great!
If you haven’t rated inter8ing yet, it's not too late! You can still rate it until the end of the month. Every vote counts and all your help is much appreciated!

• Only viewers who are logged in count!
2nd Daily task
You second daily task is to get the highest number of US votes! There can only be one winner and which will be rewarded with a 40 points bonus.

☻The first user who creates the inter8ing logo out of food or candy gets 20 pts

☻all of the "first ever" challenges must be shot in a video, and uploaded to our site using the Yme uploader.
☻The first one to upload the video wins the task.
☻The video must have a short introduction.
For example: "Hi, this is Alizarin, and here's the inter8ing logo I've painted with water colors for the Christmas champions league!"
☻As any other inter8ing video, you must state the word "inter8ing" in the YouTube title and inside the movie.
Enjoy and create crazy videos! :D

This week's videos - the 50 bonus pts winner
Hi inter8ers! Our girls and boys have made some super-cool tutorial videos about all inter8ing's major issues, so here's a short review about them.
Sam's video
Her profile is:
http://www.bebo.com/Profile.jsp?MemberId=446403571
Sam made a cute short video which explains how to apply your video on inter8ing. It helps you memorize the steps you need to follow when you send us your video :)
We're working on improving the video-uploading process to make it quicker and more simple, so I hope this tutorial will not be relevant soon. Although it's a cool tutorial!
Immortal Nightmare's video
Her profile is:
http://www.bebo.com/Profile.jsp?MemberId=18789144
Immortal is a cool girl and her videos are always nice, but someone has to get her a decent camera. :P
In the tutorial, she explains what you should not do, in a fun way. According to last week's events, some of you can learn from this video!
Bexx' video
Her profile is:
http://www.bebo.com/Profile.jsp?MemberId=1506149289
Bexx' video is very cute, funny and creative! She sings a little song she wrote about voting for her and hosts her friend in the video! It looks funny and unexpected. And then she explains the signing in process clearly. You have to watch this video till the end, because Bexx does the cutest "Jesus loves you" gig. Adorable!
Hannah's video
Her profile is:
http://www.bebo.com/Profile.jsp?MemberId=2455319990
Hannah created a useful explanation about the identification process. The video could have been more fun and energetic, but anyhow we appreciate Hannah very much for the big efforts she put in this clip during the last few days.
I must say I'm glad to see that all of these girls are on our top 8 right now. Great job! All of you got 100 pts for new video, plus 30 pts for completing the special video task. However… there can be only one best video!
Who will it be?
Ash's video
His profile is:
http://www.bebo.com/Profile.jsp?MemberId=3642787718
Ash made a nice video which explains how you should treat the other participants on inter8ing. Too bad it came out so noisy! Besides the noises from the street, it has also a background music playing from the computer. On the one hand it's nice, but on the other hand it sounds messy. Rather insert music into your video by editing than by playing it in the background! :)
Daniel Dynamite's video
His profile is:
http://www.bebo.com/Profile.jsp?MemberId=2721822591
Daniel's video is cool and nasty :).
He explains how you can get votes, and among the regular methods he gives some original methods of his own. Very nice :D
The only problem with the video is that we can't see what's written on the pages he holds ): so when you hold a page up, make sure that the writing on it is bold enough, and that you hold it up enough time
Sammy's Video
Her profile is:
http://www.bebo.com/Profile.jsp?MemberId=1129621039
This is a really great one! Sammy has an adorable accent and she knows how to make her video look better just by using simple means. She combines a regular video with still photos and a slideshow, which is more interesting to watch than just one-shot monologue. The best part of the movie, is the end, when she imitates me :D it's funny! And the great "Bananaphone" tune is so appropriate!
The best video this week:
Well…
This time, it's Bexx!
Because her video looks good, and it's funny and surprising.
Woohoo!
Congratulations Bexx, you're about to get extra 50 pts for creating the coolest video this week.
small tip for a better video #1: go outside
Being outdoors can make your video way cooler! Love your room and computer? Then you can combine being indoors and outdoors in the same short clip. It makes it more vivid and varied. Here's a short clip I shot and edited, of a friend of mine.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=un4z9HWb4Y0
We just wandered around her neighborhood and found some cool locations + I've added a bunch of still photos of her I shot earlier to create a cool stop motion scene.
I did all the clip with my small, cheap camera. Really, it was the cheapest device I could find, it costs less than 50 £. What I'm trying to say, is that you don't need professional equipment to be creative.
Hope you got inspired, because we have some very cool challenges planned for you on the Christmas champions league!
See you later :)

http://www.bebo.com/Profile.jsp?MemberId=3642787718
Ash made a nice video which explains how you should treat the other participants on inter8ing. Too bad it came out so noisy! Besides the noises from the street, it has also a background music playing from the computer. On the one hand it's nice, but on the other hand it sounds messy. Rather insert music into your video by editing than by playing it in the background! :)
Daniel Dynamite's video
His profile is:
http://www.bebo.com/Profile.jsp?MemberId=2721822591
Daniel's video is cool and nasty :).
He explains how you can get votes, and among the regular methods he gives some original methods of his own. Very nice :D
The only problem with the video is that we can't see what's written on the pages he holds ): so when you hold a page up, make sure that the writing on it is bold enough, and that you hold it up enough time
Sammy's Video
Her profile is:
http://www.bebo.com/Profile.jsp?MemberId=1129621039
This is a really great one! Sammy has an adorable accent and she knows how to make her video look better just by using simple means. She combines a regular video with still photos and a slideshow, which is more interesting to watch than just one-shot monologue. The best part of the movie, is the end, when she imitates me :D it's funny! And the great "Bananaphone" tune is so appropriate!
The best video this week:
Well…
This time, it's Bexx!
Because her video looks good, and it's funny and surprising.
Woohoo!
Congratulations Bexx, you're about to get extra 50 pts for creating the coolest video this week.
small tip for a better video #1: go outside
Being outdoors can make your video way cooler! Love your room and computer? Then you can combine being indoors and outdoors in the same short clip. It makes it more vivid and varied. Here's a short clip I shot and edited, of a friend of mine.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=un4z9HWb4Y0
We just wandered around her neighborhood and found some cool locations + I've added a bunch of still photos of her I shot earlier to create a cool stop motion scene.
I did all the clip with my small, cheap camera. Really, it was the cheapest device I could find, it costs less than 50 £. What I'm trying to say, is that you don't need professional equipment to be creative.
Hope you got inspired, because we have some very cool challenges planned for you on the Christmas champions league!
See you later :)

Valid users, USA bonus and troubleshooting
Who is a valid user?
Following the champions league, we would like to phrase more accurately the meaning of a valid user.
Officially, a valid user is a real, specific person who uses his active mail address and his real phone number to vote for you from his personal computer.
Anybody who doesn't follow these specifications, is not a valid user.
It means that the e-mail address you provide us has to be an address you really use to reply incoming e-mails. Why? Because when we suspect a cheater, we block him from voting – and the only way to unblock it, is by replying the mail we send you. You don't have to worry about giving us your mail since we don't spam. You can even ask our prior users.
USA BONUS
Our SMS service from USA is now working, therefore we want to attract some users from USA to participate on inter8ing. That's why we're applying a special USA bonus as of this week!
-Each vote you'll get from an identified US voter, is worth 4 points. Where do you get US voters? Well, you can browse them with your myspace profile.
-plus, we're giving a special bonus prize for the best US competitor
The profile from US who gets the largest number of votes, wins a 100$ prize, in addition to the weekly prize – in case he has more than 100 points from US voters.
Want to improve inter8ing?
If you have any suggestion about improving the competition, visit the troubleshoot group that was opened by Gnot.
http://www.bebo.com/Inter8ingHelp
That's a very helpful group for all of us, that can make inter8ing more effective and fun.
