On the Calypso client loader there is a link to the site where you can get the free PED. The idea is the same as is being used by other games. You click a link and register to a website, or buy an item and you get free PED in return. a link: https://account.entropiauniverse.com/auth/login.xml?from=/account/deposits/sometrics/index.xml&up=/account/deposits/
it's regional only, so for smaller countries offers are limited and usually imply getting spammed or paying for useless things....not worth it
I'm going to try this. Free PED is free PED and some of these offers say that you don't have to buy anything...
it depends on the country :) for romania it's only one offer that requires you to download something on your mobile phone while paying half an euro for 4 ped....
OK something I just checked. From Holland I get a few dozen thing I can choose from, tried 2 to see if I actually get some ped. Tried the same page true a proxy in the Ukraine and did not get anything to choose from. So it seems it is IP related. This makes me believe that if you, 47, use an proxy in the US, you can do all the offers from there.
So far I have done a few of the offers and have yet to receive any PED, not sure what is going on. May need to try with IE instead of FF to see if that helps, maybe my add blocker is messing things up. @47, internet options -> connections --> LAN settings -> check to box on the bottom and fill in a proxy server. You will need to find a good one in the US though, have not looked for one, will have a look also. [edit] found one that works: IP: 72.64.146.136 port: 3128 and I indeed now get offers from the US and I also got my first free 2.30 PED :)
if you can access the website with the proxy then you should be OK. Not sure if and when you get your PED, so far I just got PED one time and waiting for a few others.
well accessed and completed a lot of them but when I click the status it says I only viewed them all....I went to a lot of trouble providing fake addresses and emails :)) so I better get something
got another 5.20 ped just now. One thing I noticed is there is a deposit fee on these things, so MA is making a little money on the side from these things as well :)
These 2 are the only ones so far, seems the system is not very good atm because I went trough a lot of the offers and answered a lot of questions.
yeah, I give up for now...will try at later date I guess :) remains to be seen if the 14-15 completed things give me something
Sounds interesting... reminds me of those thing you can do for lindens in SL like fill in surveys etc. Might see whats available.
I personally prefer using companies such as (http://selectablemedia.com/) when playing games. They have videos, more interactive ads (FB likes anyone?) etc. Actually for a while there I logged into age of champions just to stay up to date on 3 web shows that were available to watch in exchange for the in game currency. Filling out surveys and accepting offers it is so last century not interested.
actually there was in interview with the John Bates about Sometrics seem he was very adament about not having dodgy offers on there eg things linked to spyware etc or scams. When some of these got through MA acted fast to get rid but alas since then there do not seem to have been many offers in the uk at least. Its a really nice idea but just doesn't seem to have enough suitable content.
