Never received contest prize money

[storyteller19]

I placed in the Valentines contest and have emailed laurel multiple times about the prize and never received any responses.

Anything else I should try/ is this a common problem? I placed once years ago in a Halloween contest and was able to get the prize money pretty easily then.

No-one here can assist.

Don't email, but send a PM to Laurel - click on the envelope top right this page, and start a New Conversation.

For the same competition, I contacted @Laurel by PM pretty much immediately and I got both a reply and a screen shot of a wire to my (actually @redgarters’s) chosen charity.

I’d suggest PMing her with a title saying Valentine’s Competition Prize.

 

[MelissaBaby]

I've always PMed, never emailed, and had no problems.

If you don’t know how to PM Laurel, this expalins…

I've won writing contests, but never here, so I haven't a clue what to tell you. Though, as others have suggested, a PM is the only way to go.

"Ooo, look at us, we've all won contests, aren't we cool and sexy and better than everybody else?"

Smug bastards, the lot of you. Smug.

 

[MillieDynamite]

Not here, I haven't. Not even close to a winner here.

Just came from the Tolkien thread and was sure you called them Smaug bastards at first.
Good luck getting any childcare gold out of that bad daddy!

Me neither - perrenially fourth or fifth place (actual fourth or fifth, not ‘all other competitors’).

 

[TheLobster]

I, too, have never received any contest prize money.

Granted, I haven’t placed in any of the contests, but that doesn’t mean my grievance is illegitimate!

 

[ThatNewGuy]

Did you contact them within 60 days of the end of the contest? I'm assuming so, but it's worth asking. The disclaimer on the results page says that winners must contact Literotica within 60 days to claim their prize.

I don’t know about either cool or better than everybody else; and you in particular. But the other thing…

Does that make you feel @StillStunned ?

Last time I won a writing contest was in the fifth grade and that was not stiff competition even by fifth grader standards. (Also IIRC I tied)

 

[BladeSeanchai]

I think if I won a contest I would fold the profile, take a bow and never write again

Winning comes with perks, man.

Better than Smeg bastards...

 

[Bamagan]

Better than Smeg bastards...

No need to kinkshame!

 

[StillStunned]

Better than Smeg bastards...

And much better than smug Smeg bastards. You know the ones: "Why yes, I did pay too much for this pastel-tinted retro kitchen item!"

 

[BeechLeaf]

It's now a brand of kitchen ware! Are marketing and advertising now handled by very young people? Should we tell them?

To be fair, the company was around for a while before Red Dwarf.

Still, I hope the CEO goes by the title "Smee-Hee".

Thank you everyone for responding. I meant I sent PM’s not emailed. I just got a response back so all is good now .

Glad you got it resolved.
