So, some of you know that 3mnkids1 and I have an ongoing disagreement as to what is the best SA sweeping tool. 3mn votes for the personal note feature, which is great and a wonderful tool. I vote for the latest SA creation Sweepspop which is awsome. So, you vote, which is your favorite of the two!

For those of you that are not yet familiar with sweepspop here is the initial announcement for it:

http://www.sweepsadvantage.com/smf/new-advanced-options-feature-sweepspop-t50050.0.html

Hello,

For the past few weeks we have been working on some new tools that will help
speed up sweepstakes entry. To address this you will see a new menu option
in category pages, search results, expiring sweepstakes, my sweepstakes, etc.

The menu option is called "Advanced Options" . If you click this link you will
get a drop down menu.

The first few menu options called SweepsPop will work together and enable
SA members to quickly launch all the sweepstakes on a page in a new window/tab
or allow you to select individual sweepstakes to "Pop" open.

This is how SweepsPop works.

1. Click the Advanced Options link.

2. Click "Enable SweepsPop Boxes" .
( This will add a check box on the current page for each sweepstakes listed on the page ) .

3. Click "Check all SweepsPop" .
( This will check off all the SweepsPop boxes on the page)

[glow=red,2,300]* This next step is only to be used if your computer is able to handle multiple windows open at the same time. This may slow older systems down or possible make your web browser unresponsive. Please use at your own risk. [/glow]

4. Click "Launch SweepsPop" .
( This will open every sweepstakes that you have checked off in a new window or in a new tab if you
use the Tabs feature in the latest version of Internet Explorer or Firefox ) .

Additional SweepsPop Options

1. Uncheck all SweepsPop - This will uncheck all the SweepsPop check boxes on the current page.
2. Disable SweepsPop - Will make the SweepsPop functionality disabled or disappear for the current page.


New SweepsCheck Features

On the Advanced Options menu you will find (2) new SweepsCheck features.

1. Check all SweepsCheck - This option will check off every SweepsCheck box on the current page.
2. Uncheck all SweepsCheck - This option will uncheck every SweepsCheck box on the current page.

* These options can become particularly useful for daily entry sweepstakes.

We hope you like the new features. By the Way... they are 100% Free as always!

Re: Personal Note Section vs. Sweepspop

I gotta say I love my sweepspop! Between that and getting rid of dial-up, I don't know what to do with myself :laughing: and no, I don't need suggestions... :whistle:
 
Re: Personal Note Section vs. Sweepspop

I like the personal notes because I still can't get sweepspop to work for me (even with all of the great tips from everyone).

:wave: Hi lisa - did you read this?


http://www.sweepsadvantage.com/sweepstakes-speed.htm

Here's how it works:

1. At the top of the page, look for "Advanced Options" in the upper right corner.

2. Mouse over "Advanced Options" and begin by picking "Enable SweepsPop Boxes".

3. When the boxes appear in front of each listing, check off the sweepstakes that you want to "pop" open. If you have a fast computer connection that can easily open lots of windows, you can opt to "Check All SweepsPop" which will open up to 20 sweeps at once. If your computer processes information more slowly, try opening only 5 or 10 at once instead.

4. After you have checked off your boxes, click "Launch SweepsPop". Kazaam! All the sweeps you have selected will open on your screen. Fill out the entry forms and sweep, sweep, sweep!

5. Go back up to "Advanced Options" to uncheck boxes if you want to uncheck your selections before selecting a new batch.

6. But wait, there's more! You can also go to "Advanced Options" to "Check all SweepsCheck" or "Uncheck all SweepsCheck". If you're not familiar with SweepsCheck, it's a quick way to mark off which sweeps you have already entered.

Additional Speed Tip - Autofill

SweepsPop is a great way to get through the sweepstakes quickly, but how can I fill the entry forms in even faster? The answer: use an autofill program.

An autofill program is a typing aid. It allows you to store information that can be used to quickly fill out entry forms. Put in your name, address, email, etc.. and when you run the autofill program, it will take the information you supplied and match it to the entry form fields. You still need to open each entry form, but an autofill program will speed up your time by cutting down on repetitive typing.

There are many autofill programs available. If you don't already use one, SweepsAdvantage suggests this one sponsored by PrizeWish: Follow the instructions to add the autofill program to your computer.

Some cautions when using an autofill program:
* Use the autofill program to fill the form, but do a quick read-over before submitting the entry form. Autofill programs are good, but they aren't perfect.
* Autofill programs don't work with Flash entry forms. You will still need to manually type out entry forms that are in Flash format.
* You will need to type in any security codes that are required.
* You will sometimes need to answer additional questions on the entry forms.

Hey! The Rules said I'd be disqualified for using a form filler. Won't I disqualify myself if I use an autofill program? NO. Autofill programs are typing aids. You are still visiting the site and seeing what the sponsor has to offer. You are still reading and filling out the form. What sponsor's don't like are 'bot programs that crawl around the web entering sweepstakes on your behalf. With a 'bot program, a human does not visit the contest site. Humans are allowed to use autofill programs to help with their typing.

Re: Personal Note Section vs. Sweepspop

:nono: You dare demand chocolate from the Queen? Ask ll1 what happens to people!

Sweepspop is its own reward! Sucking up to the Queen is a chocolate reward! :headbang:
 
Re: Personal Note Section vs. Sweepspop

I really like both, but I had to vote for notes... I have a really bad memory and it helps A LOT when I am looking at my expired sweeps. Plus Sweepspop doesn't always work for me... it bogs down my computer too much if there are a couple pages that are slow to load (I'm looking at you MiniSizeFun.com!)

Yes master Wolfie, I gladly sucking up to the queen and say to all how very wonderful she is. She and only she holds the key to the magic chocolate room and I will follow her anywhere she says. Sweepspop all the way.
