Topic Wiki

HTs have been last updated on 9/6/23

Q: I had deals posted to the main site, why do I have a zero?

A: It's not updated automatically, post a link to your deal on the forum(*), the DDMS link, and the number HT it should be and Dan will update it.

(*)If your HT is already in the DDMS post there's no need to link to the forum thread.

Hat tips are not awarded for:
-Amazon "Deal of the Day".
-B&H deal zone.
-Discountmags sales
-Credit card deals.
-Deals that are only part of a roundup.
-Deals that were posted as part of a master thread when they belong in a new thread.
-Deals posted in the following boards: SH, GD, TT, TDR, JS, or GFST.
-Deals that are posted with a thread title that doesn't spell out the full deal
-Back in stock/alive again updates within 3 months of the last update
-Deals posted more than 3 months after a forum post
-Updates to old post.
-Recurring sales such as 7/11 slurpee day, Rita's 1st day of spring, Nordstrom Anniversary, half yearly or seasonal sales, Flying Blue Promos, IHG Pointsbreaks, etc

Limit of 1 HT Per DDMS Post Per User.   

HT has always gone to who told me or posted first.
That includes but not limited to DDF, DDMS Comments, Facebook & E-mail.

There is no need to bump a request if it was made after the last updated date in this Wiki.

New Bump Rule: A bump counts if it's been 3 months since last post. Same applies for DDF, if someone posted it within the past 3 months they get the HT.

I think you have 5/10. What's the ruling for half?
I have 6 out of 9
I think the  last toilet paper deal you added afterwards was already posted on the MS before and never died since..

Now there are 9 deals there total...

@jj1000 is back!

There's a lot of folks in suspense:

Do I need to wait 72 hours every time I bump this request, or is the 72 hour waiting period only for the initial bump.

@davidmal  , since the owners are ignoring me, can you shed some light as to why this would be ineligible?

Main deal here being YIPPEE? http://www.dansdeals.com/archives/117164 Would be #111.

BUMP - A DDMS search pulls up 16 results.

50% of a roundup gets the HT, if the roundup is comprised of 3 or more deals.

Can't share it with Solma? :)

Like mentioned earlier he only claims the ones which don't have his name on the post, you can count for yourself, go to where he got his 100th ht and see what date it is, and then count all the ht he got from there.
