CONTEST SUBMISSION DEADLINE     (1 reply)

I am a little confused. I thought that the contest submission deadline was supposed to be October 27. Why are there contest entries posted after that date? Has this been changed as well?

I realise in this wacky world we live in nothing is quite as it seems. I am not a contestant just a bystander. After reading and voting on the letters which mind you was a very time consuming ordeal..LOL There was a question in the back of my mind as to why someone ...

Another Message, for Beverly C.     (12 replies)

This is to Beverly C. I hope and pray that you do not win the contest. In fact, as an outsider, I will do everything in my power to make sure you are not the one to win. Do you want to know why? You are so full of yourself it makes me sick. I read through the stories, ...

The critics agree!     (2 replies)

To remind those of you who have lost your perspective, this contest, as stated by PartyPop, is about "the most unusual story or situation". I was going to try to count the number of criticisms for the Hummer wedding compared to those of the others. Well, I didn't need ...

New Deadline     (3 replies)

I can't believe that the deadline for this contest can be moved back like this, can I sue ? Just kidding, but I have seen the same thing with the scores. How come a terrible story is winning? Doesn't make sense at all. Everyone else wrote about their relationship and ...

About 2 Cents     (2 replies)

I agree with everyone. I think she should be disqualified. That is definately not good sportmanship. She should have been weeded out at the very beginning. Shame on you PartyPop, for allowing outsiders to see this type of message. Is this the image you really want to ...

Brownie Points     (1 reply)

I don't know who you are "Andria" or why you think I am after "Brownie Points" by stating my mind. The real question here is what are you after by attacking me personally?? I want to win but not at the cost of being untrue to myself. I am not really understanding why ...

Unfair changes     (4 replies)

To whom it may concern, I don’t know about anyone else, but I feel as though these new contest rules are wrong. How can you ask other brides want to win this so badly to vote on there peers who also want to win. It won’t work. Anyone can tell a friend, “vote for me!” ...

UPDATE FROM PARTYPOP - DEAR CONTESTANTS     (8 replies)

DEAR CONTESTANTS We feel that we need to clear a few points: A person can vote ONE time only. The system will not let anyone vote more than once. We do have a track on each and every vote. All of us here at PartyPop take this contest and your stories very ...

There is a person that has their story up in the contest that is calling it "A Humdinger of a Wedding". I am sorry but if you can afford a hummer then why the heck do you need $50000 for your wedding? There are people that honestly need the help in this and are not ...

I TOLD YOU THIS CONTEST WAS RIGGED     (4 replies)

Well, here I am posting again, because this contest has become kind of a soap opera. I am not entered in the contest, I am just an outsider. I made my vote, which of course was not calculated properly, they can make as many excuses as they want, but it was not added ...

This isn't very fair     (4 replies)

Why is it that evertime I look at the scores, Everyones scores go down except Humdingers? Are you telling people to vote down everyone elses so you can win. Obviously we are all on here because we can't afford to have even a wedding close to our dreams. I myself can't ...

I was reading all of the comments and you all have some pretty interesting things to say. I didn't know the voting wasn't working out well. Here's what Partypop should do about this contest: First of all, take the online voting off. Only those who submitted a story ...
