Do you have any questions about the Spirit Halloween LPS? Ask here. If I don’t have the answer, I’ll ask the search sponsor.

Hi John, I know the deadline is tonight, but when I logged in this morning to finish up my submission, it seems to be missing. Any help finding it so I can finish it will be really appreciated. Thanks

Hi Carol,
Our code is set to close the search when the clock hits midnight on the deadline day. That means it closed last night. That’s one of the last bits of code that we want to change/update before taking our new design out of preview mode. We’ll manually open the search back up shortly and keep it open until midnight tonight for you guys.

Good! We can still enter! This time around, I was so busy with other things that I didn’t get a chance to finish my entry ahead of time. I’ll probably squeek it in around 5 minutes to midnight. Hopefully I’ll see y’all at G1!

I’m getting better at this game. I’m usually scrambling at 11:57 pm, but I just got mine in with spenty of time to spare. Good luck all!

Quick question, Lake: I have been trying to input an idea and just as I pushed the “Save and continue” (after finishing the idea portion), the “Edison is being updated” flashed across the screen and I lost everything I put in. I attempted to find it under the address you mentioned above without success. What should I do? (sorry…that wasn’t so quick)

Is anybody else having trouble uploading their graphics for the search? I’ve tried several times and keep getting “error on page”. I went ahead and finished the entry with no upload then e-mailed them as an attachment. Will that work?

I know you guys are quite busy and there have been technical difficulties…

Matt said we would have until midnight tonight (Tues the 11th), but Spirit Halloween entry prompt is missing tonight, so I don’t know how to enter.

I have 4 ideas I want to submit and pay you guys $100. Is it too late?

Sorry for being last minute…but, unfortunately for me, that is how I roll. I got Monster Pong into the audition 5 minutes before the deadline; and my Spencer Make Us Laugh idea came in 15 min before the deadline. I hope to start submitting sooner to the As Seen On TV LPS.

I have an entry to submit too. And I finished it about 5 minutes ago. I hope EN will accept these attempted entries late.

Mine went to 3G a couple days ago, but it was a last-minute entry. I’m hurrying up to make a prototype to add.

I’m sorry if this question has been asked before, but I have a big green check mark on my G3…I’ve never seen that before, what does that mean? I’m pretty positive that was not there before.

It doesn’t mean anything Patrice.
Some have checks some don’t.

The big green check mark is on the most recent level you passed. If you pass the next level the check mark will move to that level, if you don’t pass the next level, the check mark dissappears and you get a big red X on the level that you bombed.

Hope that helps?

So that means I passed level 3? I’m pretty sure that the last week or so that I’ve been watching this new dashboard there was no check mark that’s why I was asking. This morning I had a G1 and G2 and no check mark now I do.

Sorry, Patrice, I missed your second post yesterday. Yes, that means you passed level 3. I’m not sure why you didn’t show a checkmark before, but I think there have been some glitches with the beta test of the new site and new graphics. The checkmarks will move progressively accross your dashboard. That’s how mine worked. I’m now waiting to see a big green checkmark on level 8! Although, I kinda miss the Edison lightbulb :(
