Yay! I made it :)
ReplyDeleteHere goes!
ReplyDeleteWow. This is filling up fast! Best of luck to all who enter.
ReplyDeleteWOO! I'm in! #2!
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh! My heart was pounding. Names were up with my first refresh at 9a.m.! Phew!
ReplyDeleteWoooo excited!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks for hosting the contest
ReplyDeleteFirst blog contest I'm ever entering! Wooo!
ReplyDeleteDoin' the Snoopy dance!
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure if it worked or not, but I signed in! How fun! Thanks!
ReplyDeleteWoot! Yay, I made it! I'm so excited.

ReplyDeleteHoly moly, this is a hot commodity. 59 names in 60 seconds.

ReplyDeleteHooray! Just want everyone to know it's 6:00 AM where I live.
ReplyDeleteDang! That filled up fast! By the time I finished typing my name, it was too late. I should have a shorter name.
ReplyDeleteCan you believe that?! Wow. Fast or what?
ReplyDeleteJennie, I think it's because it's a combination of all four blogs and it gets thrown in together and does a re-jive.
Holy crow, 149 in under two minutes :O
ReplyDeleteoh. never mind. :(
ReplyDeleteLOL - nevermind! It said I was number 2 when I signed in, but I'm 101 on the list so I missed the cutoff. Good luck guys who made it in!

ReplyDeleteMade it...barely. Thanks for running a great contest.
ReplyDeleteHey, that happened to me to. I was 59, but now I'm not on the list.
ReplyDeleteI just did this and it said I was 45, and now I don't see me there? How did that happen?
ReplyDelete*sigh* will try again later
ReplyDeleteFive o'clock in the morning here! When I signed in it said #4, when I refreshed I was #30. I'm not refreshing again...
ReplyDeleteOh. Never mind. Try again tonight!
ReplyDeleteMade it and posted!
ReplyDeleteAs Ahhnold said, "I'll be back."
ReplyDelete*BG*
thanks for putting this on, btw.
Krista, I don't even see my name on the list anywhere, and I absolutely did enter and I saw my name on 45. So I understand some people got moved down when they refreshed, but is it possible someone got completely deleted?
ReplyDeleteI'm just confused.
I'll have another go tonight, but still confused. Thoughts?
I'll check it out again tonight.
ReplyDeleteI'll have a blog URL by then. :)
Same deal here as with many of you. It said I was number 2 as soon as I entered, but upon refreshing I'm not on the list at all. Confusing. I guess I'm not in...?
ReplyDeleteThat was bananas you guys. B-A-N-A-N-A-S.
ReplyDeleteFor all those who saw one number and then refreshed (it happened to me too, moved from 25 to 58) it's due to the nature of the linky list and how it polls the data from all the sites. When you first signed in, it hadn't had time to poll all the other entries. It doesn't mean anyone was deleting you, or that you did anything wrong, it's just the nature of the internet.
ReplyDeleteBest of luck to all who made it in!
That is INSANE. I will have my super-typing-power gloves on tonight, then.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Matt.
I'm glad to know I wasn't alone.
Matthew, thanks for clearing that up. Yes, I believe it just organized everyone from all four blogs into one list, and when it did that, some people were farther down the list than they thought:(
ReplyDeleteI believe the master list has settled now, so whatever your number is now is what it'll be. If you didn't make it in ths time, please come back tonight at 9:00 p.m. EDT (or 6:00 p.m. PDT)!
Got in at #61, yay! Good luck to us all and thanks to these wonderful ladies for giving us this incredible opportunity. Getting up before my peepers were ready was totally worth it :)
ReplyDeleteKrista, FYI, I've been visiting all the blogs, to say hi, and it looks like number 67 - tonja Drecker, accidentally added as extra S so her url is ...blogspotS.com. If you remove that S, the url then takes you to her actual blog. If you want to let whoever admins the linky list know, they should be able to fix it.
ReplyDeleteThanks. :)
Thanks for letting us know, Matthew. I'll make sure Brenda sees it; she's our resident widget expert:)
ReplyDelete*lurks for the 2nd round* so much excitement!
ReplyDeleteYay, I made it! Thank you for hosting such a wonderful opportunity
ReplyDeleteWahoo! A spot of sunshine today :)
ReplyDeleteI think I'm in! I tried this morning, but it kicked me out.
ReplyDeleteCrossing fingers!
Matthew - Krista...
ReplyDeleteThanks for fixing my linky! My kids hocked around me, counting down - more excited than I (which was hard :)) Next time, I won't tell them until afterwards.
Oh - and I forgot to put the link in my first e-mail so I sent another
Guess I'm a TERRIBLE contest enterer... Sorry.
