Thanks Lelee. Like I said in the shoutbox, I still think the odds are worse now, and who wants to watch more ads???

Tues morning at 7:15. No chachingo Bingo, says "Bummer! GSN ChaChingo Bingo isn't available right now.Sorry, we're just tightening some nuts and bolts. Check back later for your chance to hit the jackpot!"
I can only play when I'm home, leavung for work soon. looks like they were getting the 'new' version of chachingo bingo ready when you tried to play. curious to know what you think of it. You asked what we think Mixter99, well I think if they would actually give us something without taking something away in the process I would be a whole happier about some of the updates and upgrades they keep making. They have now done this twice in the past few months with both Video Bingo and now ChaChingo Bingo. In the announcement about the new ChaChingo they tell us all about the new bonus feature, but there’s nary a word about adding 10 more numbers. So to me adding 5 more balls and calling it a bonus was just a way to try and appease us while at the same time (and knowing very well) that adding 10 more numbers to the mix is going to lessen our chances of winning. Of course, I had pretty much already resolved to the fact that I’m probably never going to win it, but now our chances of winning are even less than they were. Of course, it’s not like they are twisting my arm to make me play it, I do have a choice…I can either play it or not play it. But as the saying goes, “you can’t win if you don’t play”, so despite my rant about it, I guess I’ll keep on playing it and hope for the best. Edit: Guys, I’ve deleted the post I made after making this one as I am fairly certain now that I was correct in my previous assumption. As a result, I saw no need in further cluttering up the thread with the question I posed. Thanks for your indulgence.

I am not sure this is where I am to post this and I hope someone will put it in the proper place! Had the usual problems with the treasure chest for oodles ads - SURPRISE! Anyhow, while I said I was never sending another screen shot, I did and am so very glad I did! Found out something very interesting I am sure not everyone is aware of! I am sure most of us will keep clicking on that treasure chest shows up! But, did you know you are only allowed to get a total of 400 oodles and after that, you get no more no matter how many times the treasure chest comes up! I am going to do a copy and paste of my response from player services about ads not working!
Videos for Tokens or Oodles (Treasure Chest, Monkey Bonus) Ad Issue: Wasn't credited Tokens/Oodles for completing an Ad / Video Name of Ad: spyder bikes and ad here with screenshot Subject: Treasure chest ads Details: sending you 1 screen shot but also wanted to let you know the spyder motorcycle ads with drew brees plays but when its done, you don't get your oodles
Their respone: (I didn’t know this! Sorry to hear of the difficulties you encountered. I've reviewed your Oodles history and can confirm that you received a total of 400 Oodles on [DATE] which is the maximum amount a player can earn per day: You may view this transaction for yourself by clicking the "My Oodles Balance" section available towards the bottom of GSN.com pages once signed into your account. To view your full Oodles transaction history click the "Review Full Transaction History" link located in the upper right-hand corner of the Oodles History window. Please let me know if you have any additional questions/concerns on this matter.
Then I replied: Wish I would have known about this limit! So, when that treasure chest keeps coming up I should not waste my time?

Some surprising info: I understand you may only get a total of 400 oodles per day but, not one of the ads coming up in treasure chest will give you the oodles you have earned. Monroe muffler as well as that one for the magazine where you have to go through 5 different windows not working! Thanks in advance! I didn't send any screen shots as the one I had sent yesterday is the one for the mag and you know the ad for monroe mufflers Their reply: Please accept our apologies for any difficulties or inconvenience while watching these videos. Unfortunately, we are currently experiencing technical issues with the sponsored videos for tokens and Oodles where they are not awarding tokens and Oodles. This issue is currently being investigated by our advertising team as well as our 3rd party ad vendors and we hope to have this resolved in the near future. As a courtesy for the inconvenience, 25,000 tokens and 400 Oodles will be awarded to your account by the end of business Friday, 05/23/14. We appreciate your cooperation and your patience while this issue is investigated. Please let us know if you need additional assistance.

dyzzle...just read this in Player News and thought it might be of interest to you. It's a comment made by one of the players after experiencing a similar problem as you have been experiencing with the oodles Treasure Chest. Yesterday, 5/22/2014, i wrote to player services because i watched back to back repetitive ads for Aol cars (at least 6) and didn’t get credit for any of the ads i watched. I heard back from Tom at Player Services and he stated that they were in fact having technical issues with the videos for tokens and oodles. I do believe they are working on the problems within the site and with the sponsors and once everything gets resolved we will be seeing the token monkey and earn bonus oodles treasure chest again. No time frame was given as to when we would see it again, but have the faith our GSN team is working diligently on fixing the problems.
In another comment GSNAngel also told another player to remember that the token monkey comes and goes. Here's what she had to say about it: ....remember, these opportunities can come and go, and some days not show at all. Even an energetic Token Monkey may need some downtime. As stated in Show Us The Monkey: “We don’t set the times when he shows up. Our sponsors do and it’s always a surprise for us too. But if you don’t see him for a day or so, please don’t worry. Our happy friend will be back. And you know why? Because Tokens are like bananas – they have appeal. (get it?).”
(Good reply GSNAngel! lol)

Believe it or not, I'm actually not having any problems with the WOF promo this go round...which I consider nothing short of a miracle considering all the problems I have had with it in the past! But I saw in Player News that players are having problems with it not showing up...not loading...not spinning...the token increase-decrease buttons being grayed out ....and also with the counter not working on it. With all these issues going on I'm in disbelief that mine has been acting like it's suppose too! Not sure if my operating system is making the difference or not, but just so you'll know, I'm using Windows XP and Firefox.

I want to see more old friends here too. My new campaign is to try & mention our board in the Threads on GSN.com. I tried adding the url, but didn't see it, so maybe just part of it? Recently I told GSNAngel that we thank her from GSNFellowOodlersChat... Let's drop some hints that we are here.

I like it vee! Maybe on GSN Facebook too.
I sent over 30 pms on GSN but I don't know if anyone checks their messages there. It was worth a shot.

Recently I told GSNAngel that we thank her from GSNFellowOodlersChat... Let's drop some hints that we are here. I did this too on Monday Vee and I think Mixter99 has too. Due to the nature of my comment my plug was actually unintentional, but nonetheless, it's there. I didn't add the URL because I was afraid GSNAngel might not post it if I did, so I just said GSNFellowOodlersChat. I think I read one time, somewhere in Players News, that there's a rule of some sort about not being able to advertise or promote other sites on there. Or it could be that I'm just remembering something GSNANgel said to phimat along these lines after he started Chatters. But even if they won't permit us to add the URL, creating a link back to the forum, 'something' is definitely better than nothing! So I'm totally on board with what you are proposing to do!

And, as for messages in your MY GSN message section, it doesn't ever show you have a message on the tab for messages so I am wondering if this is the reason no one knows they have a message!
