Is there anyway to check our current "score"? Or will there be a way to do so in the future?

Referral statistics are calculated daily. For now we don't have a live rankings page, but you can view your total referral count in your user profile once the first update goes through.

To me, I don't see anything..... the post is blank for me until I quote the thread to post.
I think I am having a bad computer day.....
Thank you... I found it by looking at the quote and then finding it.
I think it is time to do the CD's I need to be doing....
Thank you. (wave)

We might think about selling them eventually. I have 200 shirts printed up so we definitely have a few to spare right now.

Hurry up and win them! My t-shirt drawer is full! :)

I will try to get some better pics of the shirt and post them up at some point.

Do you have any idea of a price or anything?

I know when I donated to MoFo a while back I got a free Firefox shirt, but I'm not sure what exactly are the ethics of donating here because of this site's apparent affiliation w/ CS.

Hmm... yeah

You can still win a t-shirt.

Yeah, but they don't come in metric. ;) :P (evilgrin)

LICENSE: Upon reading this post, you agree to the license. You will only read this post when you are aware of the metric system, and the inner workings of it, and agree with the system.

That's ok, I'll just make sure my plugins and stuff only work for metric users then! (rolleyes).

:)

By the way, most forums do not like users using advertising referals, for example the TDF. Might want to put something about that in the referal license ;)

I heard you fixed the bug in the referall link. Does that mean that all of our previous referalls will not count? Because in my profile, it is still 0, as well as everyone elses. Or have you guys just not calculated the referall statistics yet.

The statistics had to be reset last night because referrals originating from either the Trillian site or this site were being counted. The stats in your profile will update daily. :)

Just curious, if we win, will we be able to pick a size?

If all you have are larges, there's no way I'm going to be able to wear it. I'll be swimming in it. :P

Pneumatic
2005-03-25, 04:11 AM
I did get mostly Large and X-Large for this batch. I think I got a few Mediums just for good measure but I figured if there was little interest from the public, I would just keep them and wear them :)

If you win, you will be able to pick the size from what's available.

I'd be interested in buying a bunch of these T-shirts to include in my side-business in selling computers. I already pre-install Trillian Pro for my clients (started switching to the 2 year subscription setup). I plan to go full force later this spring (after a year of a somewhat hibernation period).

I don't care about the contest....I just want the T-Shirts and other Trillian related stuff.

Once we get the ability to sell trillian gear, you'll be able to buy said shirts.

I don't want to steer this thread off topic....but if I wanted to get a hundred of these shirts (and/or stuff)...would you have a "commercial/bulk" discount for people like me?

To be honest that hasn't even been discussed yet. All I can safely say is "we'll see" if it can even be done?

Ok....keep me in mind if you do go down this avenue. I'm seriously interested :)

I will talk to the guys and see if this is cool but I have no problem adding 100 more shirts to the next order. The more we buy the cheaper they get so it's a win-win situation.

Roger Zoel
2005-03-30, 02:05 AM
Cool!!

Email or PM me with cost/bulk price/per shirt. I will mostly likely get different sizes, if available.

you would most likely have to still buy them from this website, once we have the shopping cart set up.

Roger Zoel
2005-03-30, 02:27 AM
I understand. I thought maybe I could pre-order the shirts before then, knowing that it probably will take a few weeks before I get them.

I got this one Joe. Down boy. ;)

I understand. I thought maybe I could pre-order the shirts before then, knowing that it probably will take a few weeks before I get them.

We still have not decided how we will handle the merchandise, which is why we aren't selling stuff yet. This order of shirts was actually just a test run. I only wanted about 20 just to see how it went but things kind of grew and I ended up with 200. I will talk to Scott and see what direction we are going and let you know about the bulk oder situation.

As far as lead time, they only took about a week from the time I ordered them to the time I had them in hand.

Plans are to eventually have a store where you can buy things such as T-Shirts.

About the referral counts, keep in mind that the information is updated daily. It appearst that you have one referral so far, so it should be working.

I looked under last week and it says my name Elessar and i have 57 referals...does that mean i finally win a T-shirt? if so, can i get a medium? I'll be swimming in anything bigger. Btw...if i have won a free t-shirt, how, where to do give my address? Anyway, i hope i won, that would be awsome to promote GoTrillian with a new T-shirt:p

About the referral counts, keep in mind that the information is updated daily. It appearst that you have one referral so far, so it should be working.There are two areas that show referrals in my profile: 1 under Forum Info and 2 under Additional Information. I'm not participating in the Top Referrers, but where did I get the one lonely referral that is under the Forum Info?

You can get credit for referring people to the Trillian web site. You can also get credit for referring someone to sign up here at gotrillian.com. It's not used for any contests but it's there for informational purpose.

Roger Zoel
2005-10-09, 12:12 AM
Are you referring to the amount of referrals you have?

If so, just go to your user control panel (there's a button in the navigation menu).

Edit...Or you can click on the user's (or your own) avatar.

Hm, could there possibly be a discount for those wh ohave referred many people? (Im a college student on a budget and im sticking to it :) )

I think that would be a great idea, but it always seem to be the same people week after week :)

Maybe once you reach a certain amount of referrals, you get a T-Shirt.

?!?!?

That would be awesome. I keep trying to make visually appealing banners and such to get people to check out Trillian. I wonder what the amount of referrals would have to be? I think i am up to 540 last i checked on the main page. I would so wear the shirt all the time (woot) (dance) LOL
