    I just created a fake twatter account so I don't annoy any of my friends or the 27 followers that don't read my normal day to day shit. I' hoping get a few entries in there. .

    :lol: Good idea! But i just spammed my twitter followers :lol: I don't tweet other than for contests anyway..

    Im up to 16 points.. so that's 3 chances in all 4 drawings. 12 shots at tickets. If I don't get a pair, then I have the worst luck ever... Do you know how else we can get points? Any other websites to share, or just on global citizen?

    Has anyone from Canada had any luck signing up? I'd love to try for this, but it won't accept my zip code.

    Go onto the website, on the bottom of the main page should be links to articles.
    Click n the article, and on the bottom of the article is a "tweet" button. CLick it and enter your twitter info and it should generate a tweet fo ryou. All you need to do is click tweet and then your tally should update to add 1.
    I went to every article on the site and tweeted it haha

    You might have a really good pop-up blocker installed? The tweet thing comes up in a little twitter pop-up window, so that might be the problem?

    I dont think I was ever in the drawing until now :? :lol:

    I had 3 points, which I thought was enough to be entered into the raffle. Just got another point and then got this email:

    "By earning more than three action points on Global Citizen, you’ve just been entered in the draw to win tickets to the Global Festival in New York City this September 29th!"

    :shock: :oops:

  • awilkinsawilkins Posts: 984
    60,000 tickets, 30,000 pairs, 27,000 pairs drawn for over August and September, 3000 VIP to be bought.

    I had 38 points. This is pretty cool I think.
  • samjamsamjam New York Posts: 9,283
    Love how its 60,000. Obviously a lot of people, but that number doesn't suggest we'll all be packed in like sardines :)

    Yeah, I saw U2 in Moncton last summer and there were roughly 75,000 there and it didn't seem too bad at all. This is 60K and Central Park is pretty huge, so it shouldn't be that crammed.

    This might be one of those once in a lifetime events...

    If you didn't get tickets this drawing you've only missed 1 of 4! Still a good shot, especially with 42 points.

    Awesome! And Central Park is a breeze (as much as a train and subway can be) to get to from where I am on Long Island.
