limiting profiles

I noticed you have put a limiting profile block on. i currently have 8 people that live in my household, and this causes them to not be allowed to be entered. Will you increase the number of profiles allowed?

Hi,

Thanks -- no, a decision was made to limit the profiles to help prevent against disqualification. If you have too many people entering from the same household/computer/etc, then many sweepstakes are likely to disqualify the entries. Usually you should only be entering at most 2-3 people. Any more than that, and you should have them having a separate licensing, entering for themselves, on a different computer/location/etc.

Plus, as an aside, we discovered a couple people were 'abusing' that functionality, (i.e., one guy had 30+ profiles), so it was necessary to do that.

Thanks,

Johnathan
