Is this a fundraiser for the site? If so I think it's a great idea.
Yes, it's both fundraising and user-raising plan for the site! ^^ thank you!
So, how will you determine the winners later?
By the way great idea, I hope you will get a lot of response from this.
@beeant, I was thinking you must be working on something special, as things had been quiet for a little while. Nice competition. ^^
Like A3agnos mentioned though, I'm wondering how you will know which three users it is when it comes to announcing the winners?- @A3agnos As you can see, the competition is powered by Gleam. I think I will be able to contact the winners via Gleam when the competition ends. Thank you! ^^
@mog86uk Thank you!^^ As for now, connecting JCJP users and gleam will be manual work because JCJP is currently using the free plan. Later when this competition works well, I would probably use the Pro plan or build similar system. 
Will this work even though my Facebook and email are different to the ones I used to create this account here?- @Jadore_Violet As I will contact the winners manually, yes, it will work because I will ask the winners' addresses and usernames on JCJP ^^
- Ok thanks I thought it might not track my use of the site but it asked for my name and email after ^-^
- yes, the competition at least this time is separated in some ways. But it will still work for the purpose. ^^
SO far away, 笑- What's so far away?
Are those thomas the train chopsticks? LOL
not chopsticks xD it's called pocky I think. It's a snack ;)
One question, when you mean referral, people who access the site via the link provided have to make an account and do any one action right?
Great way by the way to promote the site, hope more users do join in! :)- @KuroShiro I think you just need to send the invitation to earn the points. ^^
Thank you! Yes!!^^ 
Do we need "Gleam" for you to be able to contact us if we are the winners or will we recieve an email ?
How do we participate in this?- Nevervmind, I found it :)
woww is amazing
@beeant I've already posted a photo to Instagram and tagged japaneseclass but gleam isn't picking it up!- @chuichi sorry, actually I haven't tried to ise gleam as an actioner, but have you make sure that you are logged in to gleam before you perform the action?
Also, did you do the action by clicking on the list of actions? - @beeant hey I figured it out, the hashtags used in the post had to match those supplied on gleam *exactly*... nothing more, nothing less... *rolling eyes*
- @chuichi *rolling eyes* thank you for participating in the competition! ^^
すげえ- 44 hours left!
o/- We're now within the final 24 hours right? 18 hours left? Not long now until three users have won! I'm amazed at how many entries there have been. ^^
- I wonder what happens in 3 minutes, if anything happens immediately upon the timer ending. ^^
This was in fact great. I have to say that I had a lot of fun doing this, and this has spark brand new ideas for me to work with, or maybe start a online journal. :) Thanks for the competition!- Thank you very much for all users who participated in our first competition!
It will take some time validate all the entries and select 3 winners. I hope I can do this within 3 - 7 days. After 3 winners of our first competition have been selected, I will announce and send the prize to them! :D
There will be more competitions coming next month! Please stay tuned! :) - @beeant thanks for the competition and can't wait to find out who the winners are!
- This "skikahanbai" guy is one full-blown spammer ill give him that
Where the hell is the pocky
pocky is GOD- In my mouth. I'm actually eating Pocky right now, funnily enough, haha.
(Completely unrelated coincidence though. :P My Sister randomly gave me some Pocky for my bd two week ago, and only got round to opening it a couple of hours ago.) ^^ - i went to japan last year and ate SO MUCH pocky, i miss it all
Yay, more competitions in the future! Can't wait!- Sorry for the delay on the winner announcement. The winners has been decided and the prize has arrived. Ready to be shipped. But, I have some other matters at the monent. I hope that everybody would understand this as a reason for the delay.
- @beeant It's perfectly okay! Everybody is busy and doing what they can. I'm sure hosting this and getting the prize is not easy ready is not easy. :)
- Thank you for your understanding.
I'm curious, what happened to this?- I wonder too. I want another chance to win snacks haha
- I'm really for the lateness of the winner announcement..
As some of you may know I'm still doing JapaneseClass.jp part time.
I have other jobs that I have to do to make my living, saving some money so that someday I can commit more time for JapaneseClass.jp.
I will announce the winners and ship the prize to the winners once I feel that I have enough time to do all that and also to hold more fun competitions. It's been about 5 months, I'm really sorry for this. - I think the Patreon button should be featured more prominently on the site: maybe under "Misc". I think the most successful Patreon accounts are the ones who advertise it at least semi-regularly. I think more people want to support you, but might not know about it :)
- @beeant, Good to see that this is still going to be sorted out. Better late than never. ^^
Having all those snacks in your apartment for so long... After a while I would have been very tempted to start eating a few of them...
So I was wondering if, after you got delayed for a while due to being bogged down with work, maybe you accidentally ended up eventually eating all of them, and that this might be the reason it has now taken so long (as you would have to save up again to buy another load). j/k :D - beeant, no offense meant, and I hope you didn't take it as one. I think most users are fully aware that JCJP is still operated by yourself in your spare time. I thought I might have missed the announcement. I'm afraid there's not much for us to do about your time and money besides of occasional donating and otherwise waiting.
- @mog86uk That's actually what's happening lol.. They're really good and it was the first time for me to try them. I will buy them again and ship the fresh new ones.
@OwlPrincess yes I hope patreon can work better and meet the target. Do you have any suggestions to do so?
@dpi209 I don't feel anything offensive from what you said. So no problem. Thank you very much for your donations! At the moment, the codebase for JCJP iOS app is done. There are still some works to be done for the Android, some design adjustments, and also performance tuning. - My main suggestion is to include a link to Pattern not only prominently on the main site, but on social media too. I'd recommend including it on Twitter and Facebook. When you post too, include a link every now and then - maybe every three posts would be optimal? Definitely keep posting on SNS to keep everyone engaged and get new users, because they will inevitably check out your profile and see the Pattern link there too.
- Patreon not pattern lol. I'm on Android now and word suggestions kept messing it up.
