Hi, i've just been in my car listening to the TalkSport radio show, hosted by the infamous James Whale to hear that they're running a competition which almost mimic's my website!!! read all about it here on their website: Talksport My site is www.pixaprize.com - instead of just a standard grid, talksport have placed their grid on a football pitch and the first to text the correct grid reference wins the prize. They've even implemented the "hot" & "cold" clues!! I don't thnk there's anything i can do but going to newspapers sound interesting!! maybe get a plug from them for my site!!
That's a great idea I think I am going to steal just like the radio station did HAHA!! Just joking! Well, it sure does look like they straight up stole your idea! I don't know if there is really anything you can do about it all that.
i never said that the radio station "stole" anything! rather, i was asking a question. i didn't know mdhp was a game! how many prizes has Alex Tew given away? there's a huge differnece between mdhp and pixaprize. your way of thinking Casper, suggests that Howard Hughes "stole" the flying idea from the Wright brothers! or Car manufacturers "stole" the motorcar from Henry Ford or Michelin & Dunlop "stole" the wheel from the neanderthol!!! don't be silly Casper. Did you steal your FormMailer from other form producing software? according to your logic, yes, you did!!
No one really "stole" anything from anyone here... it's possible they've never even seen your site. No idea is truly unique... it's just a matter of who does something with it first. But they're still pretty different from you. On your site, if I remember right, you just click the boxes, and can keep people on the site repeatedly looking at ads. W/ the station, don't they have to call it in or something? So they're not physically viewing ads anyway if I've got that right. You both just reinvented the wheel, so to speak, and happened to do it in a somewhat similar fashion. But it's not close enough that I think anyone would confuse the two. They're just prize sites laid out in a grid. You can't really stop someone from doing that, anymore than you could stop someone from running a sweepstakes just because someone else did it first. ... if it makes you feel any better, I still like yours better anyway. It's a clever way to actually "addict" players into looking at ads. Jenn
