I have a mugu on the leash who is too stupid to walk and chew gum at the same time.

He now has (by my latest count) seventeen hits on 1TVS. The grand total number of questions he has answered in those 17 visits??? Zero.

He must think that MCTN will miraculously materialize if he just keeps checking back every so often.

Bruin I got one just like that going on. He's been logging in for days, probably over 20 times, and hasn't answered a single question. That happened to me on another bait too, and the lad seemed to be saying he couldn't answer questions. I'm wondering if some computers can log in but are unable to answer the questions, due to some technical limitation?

My lotto lad is having a similar problem. 9 visits so far, he got up to 12 questions on one visit, but that's a long way away from the 150 required. He keeps mailing me telling me not to send the money via 1TV5 - like that's going to happen Laughing

. He also says he's answered all the questions and the MTCN isnt coming up Rolling Eyes

Seriously though, it really pisses off when they're being lazy. What the hell makes him think he deserves nearly �1000 for doing no work?

I am wondering if it might have something to do with cookie settings on the computer. Does anybody know if 1TVS requires one to accept cookies?

You could always test that yourself Bruin by turning off cookies on your computer and trying the site.
I have yet to try 1TVS, but i think i just got a lotto scam where i can use it.

I've seen this happen once or twice but always made the assumption that the lad was particularly lazy. Once they find that they actually have to do something other than complain / whine / beg to get the MTCN, they saw "screw this", email you that it isn't working, and move on to the next maga in the inbox.

With that said, I believe that 1TV5 uses Javascript extensively, and it's entirely possible that some internet cafes have Javascript disabled in the browsers. In this case, I think that the customer support people at 1TV5 would be thrilled to offer some very helpful advice.

My latest lad logged in over 100 times in a few days. A huge percentage had zero answers, followed by a huge number with one question answered. Others had anywhere from a few to a hundred answers, and twice he made it though the full 300. I assume the first time he missed the MTCN, the second time he did get it because he complained vigorously that it had one digit too many. Laughing

I suspect that sometimes they question their friends about it and log in just to show the site and ask if other scammers have seen it. It's also possible that some gang members pass it along the chain. I had to set up a new transaction for the lad I just mentioned because there were too many logins from different IPs. Either he was sharing with other lads or kept trying different computers in one or more cafes. Whatever the reason for all those logins, the net result was a HUGE waste of his time...

Mine logged in 12 times in one evening and answered 15 questions each time. (Generous of me I know).

Then I got this:

Quote:

Please my brother, I have done as you ask, but the MCTN number only flash 3 time. I only wish you could see this yourself. I am old and am find it hard to note the MCTN.

This despite the fact on his ID it said he's born in 1963.

I've changed the MCTN for security reasons and increased questions to 40. Let's see how he gets on.

1TV5 has a huge problem with IE 6+. The browser will not accept the script. Make your lads download Firefox.

Posted: Thu Jun 07, 2007 4:29 pm

^^^^^^^^^

yup. the use uf IE7 on the lads side results exactly in that phenomenon. Ask your lad what browser he uses and tell him some cock and bull about his browser must have wrong setting so he shall try from another location. Chances are that there are no two internetcafes in ladland with recent software versions installed. Cool

My Reverend Lad logged in a good few times and whined about it just as many times before he emailed 1TVS and was told to use firefox, then he answered all 167 questions in a row and then whined he wasnt quick enough to jot down the MTCN Laughing

As I've said before, I dont see where that becomes my problem.

Well, I am giving my mugus a choice: either get firefox or else tell me and I will cancel the transaction and send them cash via Parcel Direct.

My lad has hit the site 32 times now and most of the time it is zero answers but with a couple minor efforts. So far he's answered 203 questions so it's below $2 per answer (He is after $400). I would really like to get it to less than a dollar before I give him a run with a new number. pip pip housefly

A lot of time you will get a lad trying to log on you will get a load of attempts to log on from the same IP with no questions answered and then later you will get a log on from another IP address as they try and find a PC that will support the programme.
