Tie breakers? Neal will decide who wins ties by checking who referred first and also referrals that didn't meet the min participation requirements but got referred and joined. If unable to decide a tie breaker the prize will be split accordingly.

Can we have a live counter to see the standings?

It should auto show on the right side bar when referrals occur. Also there are two icons on the bottom of the Referrals Contests banner. The right one should show stats.

I am learning this new tool as we go and where to show contest components so the site will update as questions come in and I learn the tools.

Cool contest Neal. Kudos.

There are a ton of new EV RVers that tow with electric vehicles. They are presently all on Facebook groups as there are currently no RV forums accepting of the technology without ridiculing and belittling. It might be worth making a separate section for “Towing with Electric vehicles” section or something like that. Unique challenges and solutions, charging challenges, locations etc. These are all topics discussed on these Facebook pages. Some with 10,000 plus members.

Just an idea Neal.

Cheers.

While I think the "Tow Vehicles" forum would suffice I'm willing to give it a shot. New forum created.

Discussion related to EV's as tow vehicles

Bring your friends over and show me the interest And of course feel free to use your referral link if desired.

For years gas vs diesel has been the debate. Most handle it civil. Hopefully this forum can handle ice vs ev civil, and welcome the new group.
Respect is a 2 way road. If someone is in your lane, it better to avoid them vs head in collision.

Heh heh. . Will do. I don’t actually know any of them but I’ll put it out there next time I’m on one of their groups. They have been handy a few times. What is lacking on Facebook is the archival abilities of a board like this. Thanks for the new section.

We’ll be crossing Canada (Or at least to Quebec City) with our EV trailer combination after the May long weekend. I’ll spread the word when I can. Should be a fun trip. Allowing ourselves 8 weeks but can go to 12 if necessary. I’ll probably start a thread on it.

Cheers.

John.

Content breeds content. Feel free to use the forum to post anything you want to share. Search engines pick that up and people will come. Thanks for your help and I look forward to learning from your posts. EV is obviously on the steep rise. Interesting to watch and I'm certainly interested in the topic.

A few tidbits to help those wanting to participate in the referral contest. You'll notice this section at the very top of the home page of the site and in the bottom section when browsing other areas.

1. Click the trophy button to see the prizes
2. Click this to see the current stats of the competition
3. Tools - click to show the referral code you can email or text or use as you wish. Anyone that follows the link will be recorded as a referral
4. Invite friends - tools to send emails (invitations) to make them aware of the site

Happy referring...

Something is wrong with the trophy icon. It says I have 1 referral but when I click my name, it says 4.

What you are seeing are referrals, yes, but not referrals that have "yet" met the min contest requirements (participation). The referral system does track referrals overall not related to any contest. A contest can be created which can put criteria on referrals such as date range, post requirements, etc. You have 5 referrals (as of this writing) with only one that has "participated" hence not meeting the contest requirements yet other than the one.

ok---that is good to know. Pretty advanced
