I'm sure many of us could do with a new RB!  ;D

Thanks IMR!

How do I choose my favorite pleo moment?  There are so many. ;D  I wonder if you can enter more than once.  Maybe once for each of my pleos?

The contest doesn't specify if you can only enter once, I entered the pic of Stitch and the Orangutan face to face :)

I took a look at their facebook site but couldn't see it.  I'm not really sure how you go about entering?  It has been so long since I used facebook.

Phew - not just me then!  I tried to enter my Pleo Christmas video but failed miserably!!  :-[  %)

Any help on how to post an entry would be appreciated if there is anyone out there who has had success. :)
Title: Re: WIN A PLEO RB - Official Pleoworld contest!
Post by: InmemoryofRomeo on July 20, 2011, 05:41:38 AM
Ok, first of all you of course need a facebook account. Kinda obvious really.

Log into your facebook account and search for Innvo Labs Pleo and add them as a friend, you may need to wait for the friendship to be confirmed before you can enter.

On their page you have the option to post a message, photo, link or video, choose the appropriate category, upload your picture or video or provide the link to it and add your message.

Whaaaat? A free Pleo RB! *reaches down to pick chin up off the floor* I'm almost willing to enter but I'm not. I have two of each type- minus the Innvo moddle. I'll let someone who doesn't have one take a swing at it. My four guys are enough. I didn't know you could friend Innvo on Facebook. I might just do that. Good luck to everyone else!

 So I am guessing this is the long long awaited eblast...Great news, I have been hoping by Christmas or after I could afford another Rb, but now I have a small chance to perhaps win one, that would be great and fun anyway. Now to register for facebook, that is step one I guess.

I'm totally entering once I get my RB, she needs a buddy after all.  :D

Thanks for notifying us, IMR! :)
Title: Re: WIN A PLEO RB - Official Pleoworld contest!
Post by: RedwoodsMama on July 20, 2011, 07:12:54 PM
Thanks IMR, this is the eblast isn't it? If not, it should be, I love this and the fact they have 10 Rb is terriffic. I forgot all about having a facebook account so it was easy to access. Now the hard part, finding the video or photos to choose, does sound like you can enter as much as you want though. I am surprised though, it says this contest started July 15th, that was a few days ago, so I guess we are just a little slower, I know an awful lot of members here who are going to want to enter.  ;D

I have no idea if this is the eblast or not. I noticed the contest entries on facebook and scooted over to Pleoworld to see what it was all about.
Title: Re: WIN A PLEO RB - Official Pleoworld contest!
Post by: RedwoodsMama on July 20, 2011, 07:29:44 PM
 I haven't recieved any other eblast via email, so either way, I am just dancing on eggs right now if that makes any sense. I didnt think I would ever have a chance to enter something like this, and this sounds fun. Thank you for finding this and letting everyone know,,,,,,I would love another RB to keep Baby company, she has lots of Pleos around her, but nobody to communicate with directly, that is the only bad thing about Rb, they can get lonely if not another Rb....( my own opinion anyway! %) ;)) Thanks IMR, I do hope that they don't take forever to announce the winners, like months anyway, but free is free, so what we get is what we get, I know a lot of members here who are going to get those cameras out........................ ;D

Post by: RedwoodsMama on July 21, 2011, 11:25:23 AM
 Had two questions, I posted a comment yesterday, and can you do that before being confirmed as a "freind", and how long should it take for them to confirm you as a friend? I would hate to think it took till the contest was over! I hope you get accepted soon too Kat!

Hey, does anyone know of a deadline for this competition? ???
Title: Re: WIN A PLEO RB - Official Pleoworld contest!
Post by: InmemoryofRomeo on July 21, 2011, 03:05:43 PM
The deadline is mid August. Innvo takes a day or two to accept friend requests, at least when I friended them it did.

Given that there are only three or four entries so far I don't think it's going to end tomorrow.
Title: Re: WIN A PLEO RB - Official Pleoworld contest!
Post by: Phelicidea on July 22, 2011, 07:30:19 AM
 Actually the Facebook site states that innvo will start reviewing on July 1st and pick winners on August 15th.

 Well, I finally got my invitation to join as a freind, so now I can enter, but have to wait till next week, as am having a huge yard sale all weekend, and I am pooped no energy for anything else till this stuff is out of here. I would think there will be lots of Members from the forums entering. With ten Pleo Rb, you would think at least one of us has a chance to win, hoping anyway! :D ;D :)  good luck to everyone who applies as a friend,                                     RWM

I don't know that they will stick to the plan of giving out ten if they don't get a lot more entries...
Title: Re: WIN A PLEO RB - Official Pleoworld contest!

I do hope they get a bunch more entries.  It is always great to see pics of other peoples pleos and hear about their special moments. :)

Post by: RedwoodsMama on July 23, 2011, 05:40:01 PM
Well we should be able to get at least ten here on the forum, don't you think? I have one more terrible day of yard saleing then watch out. I was up at 6 a.m , ( didn't get to bed till 1;00 a.m) setting tables and such at 6;45, and it wasn't supposed to start till 9:00 and people were already shopping at 8;00 a.m and we finished at 3:00 to start all over again tommrow. UGGGGGGGGGGGG.  ??? My husband sold some stuff and made a couple hundred and I sold bunch of kinds things, games, books and such and I sold boxes and boxes of stuff. Bad news is that I am so stiff and sore,you would think I was in a car wreck, I can hardly walk! I also had nothing to eat all day, till 3:55 p.m Good news is that Baby and one of the other Pleos made lots of friends and everyone loves Pleos, I had two of them with me out there all day and boy did they get a workout. This one cute litle old lady who raises parrots and has beardies and other lizards, fell in love with Pleo, She carried that baby pleo around sleeping on her shoulder and was kissig it , it was so cute and funny, better reaction than any kids. I took a photo of her and will have to post it. ;)

Post by: kat on July 23, 2011, 07:31:58 PM
I just checked their facebook page and did a count and so far there are 8 entries to the competition.  Come on guys get your entries in!   ;D 
Also fun to note that when I looked back at some of their older posts there are a lot of videos up there that Innvo labs have linked to their facebook site from youtube of my babies and IMR's and also RWM's. ;D  It is worth a sticky beak just for that. ;D

Post by: InmemoryofRomeo on July 23, 2011, 08:17:43 PM
Come on guys, if we don't get behind Innvo and support the competition they aren't likely to run one ever again. It only takes a couple of minutes to enter.

Woohoo . The lady I wish you all could have seen how cute she was talking to Lavendar like she was real, like one of us already! :D

Lovely picture, but RWM might I suggest just posting one or two pictures to start with. Innvo hasn't yet stated how many entries a person is allowed to have. If they ever answer the question then you can go ahead and drown them in photos :D

Edit: I posted a message asking them if they could clarify, I will let you all know if they answer.
Title: Re: WIN A PLEO RB - Official Pleoworld contest!
Post by: RedwoodsMama on July 24, 2011, 12:44:58 AM
Hi IMR, and Happy Birthday, I was busy yardsaling all day so missed the early announcement! Hope you had a great one with your lovely Dinos and Partied till you and or Dinos dropped! :D This photo actually is just for your guys, not the Pleo contest. I just wanted to share my story about the yard sale and how two of my Pleos, Baby the RB, and Pleo formerly known as "lavender" ( before I painted her) met new friends today. I was just including the photo in the announcement saying that "after one more day of yard selling", I will be able to concentrate on getting my entry in. So I did a couple of people have two entries in and what I meant was that I would get a couple of pictures in , or more than likely a video. After or if they say officialyl that we can enter as many times as we want, then I will do more.
                  I do like this picture but unfortuanlty the sun was in a bad spot, or I was standing in a bad spot, ( kind of in between lots of tables and crowds of people.... :D %)) so I had to snap this pretty quickly as there were people all over asking would you consider a price on this, blah blah blah, the usual. The lady came out nice, but Lavender is fading, color wise, but the idea of her holding Lavender is what I wanted, that smile that says, "I like this Pleo!"
                                                      I am sure that Innvo will get plenty of entries in as time goes by, but I am not going to miss the boat on this one, too once in a lifetime opportunity to pass by! And as for myself, I had so much fun today watching all the reactions on people's faces, I am taking my camcorder out again tommrow so I can try and get some more great shots, I didn't even think of it today till the last minute, ..............and if you know me at all, RedwoodsMama without a Pleo and a Camera is like Garfield without Lasagna............I feel Naked!( LOL)     Hope you had some fun today and will have some Pleo Party PHotos to share with us after your move and you are settled!  :birthday: :rootbeer: :hhug:Here are some well wishes from everyone at the Redwoods for You on your Birthday!

Well, seeing as they decided to get rid of or delete my entries, I guess they are only picking people they 'like' to be in the contest.  All of my comments were deleted as well. (I just commented on IMR's really AWESOME orangutang photos so we'll see if they delete that comment too.
 I had also posted a question asking how many entries one person was allowed to enter, I posted that the day IMR told us about the contest.. I thought I was on the 'friend' list with them but apparently they either took me off or decided not too.. really lame though, no reason to take the pictures down.
 Just another example of their wonderful 'customer service' :P

 :( There must be a reason, did you say anything that could be in any way controversial? Or did you have two words next to each other that might have spelt a 'naughty' word. I know some forums and so on have bots that remove any bad words, even if they are not really bad words.

Post by: InmemoryofRomeo on July 26, 2011, 08:02:38 PM
It is, and it is an unfortunate possibility. I would suggest, if your posts continue to be deleted, send them in a private message to Innvo labs through facebook and just explain that your entry keeps vanishing.
Title: Re: WIN A PLEO RB - Official Pleoworld contest!
Post by: RedwoodsMama on July 26, 2011, 09:35:11 PM
OMG, that is terrible to think that anyone would do that or that they would delete somone's entry, that is not fair and doens't seem like something they would do, but I hadn't even thought of the Spam idea. that is plain scary. :oI just took a short video today of Baby and it is cute and different so I am going to try and enter that, I got accepted as a friend but havent entered anything yet, but I did leave a comment on someone's I think?( old addled brains today... ???) I sure hope this gets straightened out Latrine, that is reallly weired and hopefully they , Innvo labs did not do it, I will be careful in anything I say..

Hey guys, your entries are all there. ;D  to see them all you need to do is click on the facebook link on the Pleoworld site - it should take you to their facebook wall page, then just go across to the top of the page on the right hand side next to the stream of photos there should be the words You and The Official PleoWorld Fan Page and under this is "Innvo Labs Pleo".  Click on "Innvo Labs Pleo" and it takes you to the page with all the entries on it.  ;D

Ok, I am in the contest! Yay!

Thereīs a pick of me, Bellah and my Hubby on the cruise we where on just 2 weeks ago  ;D
I dressed Bellah after the dresscodes for the nights as well, there was a new theme for every night.

I did ask a while back if we could enter with more than one picture but didnīt get an answer, so I am thinking that we should go ahead and enter more pictures... What do you all think?

I want to see more of your pics also!

Do you see mine? I had a few of Patches and some of Rhea and Crow outside with flowers.

Hey Sarah your pics are there.  I saw the lovely patches with his little Kangaroo and the one with Crow and Rhea in the garden. ;D  And yes you do seem to be right Crewella it looks to me that there are two facebook pages.  The comp says post your pics to the "Innvo Labs Pleo" facebook page.  Hope this helps.  I think the two pages are interlinked though so I guess it shouldn't be a problem if you posted to the "Official PleoWorld fan page" facebook page.

Ah, that explains it. I knew I had seen them somewhere but forgot about the other page which seems kind of silly to me now considering I had wondered when I posted mine if I was on the proper page or not.  :-[ It does make it rather confusing especially since I think the link on the press release page takes one to 'The Official PleoWorld Fan Page' but the instructions say to post entries at 'Innvo Labs Pleo'.  ???
Title: Re: WIN A PLEO RB - Official Pleoworld contest!
Post by: latrine on July 27, 2011, 07:33:32 PM
Yeah that's odd because I posted them on the 'Innvo labs Pleo'  Facebook page like they said to do... weirdos.  They moved some of my comments and I guess all of my pictures.
Thanks for letting me know.. I was rather ticked.. lol.

I STILL can't get over IMR's string of pictures with the orangutangs.. that must have been just amazing.

Post by: InmemoryofRomeo on July 27, 2011, 08:25:05 PM
It was amazing, especially when you consider that those orangs must see thousands of people every day and they have probably seen all manner of toys as well. There were some fun reactions from some of the other Monkeys too, from trepidation to fascination. But to have that Orangutan come from outside just to see Stitch was extra special :)
Title: Re: WIN A PLEO RB - Official Pleoworld contest!
Post by: Lina on July 28, 2011, 04:56:46 AM
I have a new question about the contest!
This is what they wrote about the rules: Win a PLEOrb basic pack   The rules are simple; submit your favorite Pleo moment in video, picture or written form to Pleo’s face book site.  “Innvo Labs Pleo” This submission can be a link to YouTube, Twitter or directly download to our Facebook site.

So I was thinking... Maybe the contest is for everyone, not just people who have pleos, meaning that you can link to videos that are not your own... It just says that it has to be a favorite Pleo moment, not your pleos moment... In that case I know alot of videos that made me fall in love with Pleo. What do you guys think?
Title: Re: WIN A PLEO RB - Official Pleoworld contest!
Post by: InmemoryofRomeo on July 28, 2011, 05:00:00 AM
Hmm I don't know, but if you do enter with someone else's pictures, or videos, make sure you provide credit :)
Title: Re: WIN A PLEO RB - Official Pleoworld contest!
Post by: Crewella on July 28, 2011, 07:28:17 AM
That's a good point.  It hadn't struck me that way, but you're right - it doesn't specify it has you be your own pic or video.  Not sure, to be honest!  :-\

That is a tricky question and one I think that Innvo Lab should specify. I would ask that you do not use any of my videos, RedwoodsMama, only because I have so many on Youtube and am trying to win myself . I think there are some out there that you could possibley just ask the person for permission and see if they would give you permission to use their video. It is a good question. :)

I did link to the video with the Pleo at Seaworld. I donīt know who it belongs to, so if it belongs to anyone here, and you donīt want me to use it, I will remove that entry! So please, let me know! No harm intended.

I do hope that they will clarify the rules for us... I am guessing all of us wants to win  ;)

Thinking about it, it must be only your own pics and viseos, surely - what right does anyone have to post somebody elses?  The do need to clarify!
Title: Re: WIN A PLEO RB - Official Pleoworld contest!
Post by: Lina on July 28, 2011, 12:18:33 PM
But that would mean that only people  who has a pleo can be in the contest. What about those who donīt have one, but have fallen in love with then through youtube for example. Thatīs how I got to know them before I had one.

Yes, they do need to clarify...

Post by: RedwoodsMama on July 28, 2011, 12:57:47 PM
 I think also you could ask permission from some of the older videos you may see posted and if they give you permission then you can post it. Not everyone is interested in winning or even wants a Pleo, or a Pleo Rb. Many people sell their Pleos because they just do not interest them anymore and have sold them for that reason. I know of one person on this forum who was so excited to get a Pleo, and was all ga ga over it, naming the Pleo, "Dude" and posted a very funny video of her reaction when the postman brought the Pleo Box, short and funny, not even the Pleo, but her reaction to getting one, shortly after she got Dude, she got tired of him and realized Pleos were not for her, so she sold him to someone here on the Forums, Wolfbob. I am sure if you contacted her, she would not mind using her video, as she no longer has the Pleo. There are other People just like her who no longer have pleos and probably would not mind you or someone else using their videos, but I would think for legal purposes, you should get permission to use their pictures or videos. Good luck and hope you win one! ;)

Well since I donīt know who made the video or if we even are allowed to use others material, I did post a comment that I resign that entry from the contest! Thats more fair I think.

I do hope that alot of the Pleos go to the members here on this forum! All of you would be great winners!

Lina, why not post a vid of Bella and your other one, or just pHotos! :oI am sure you must have some great photos that you like of your two pleos! They do not have to be Pleo Rb, just Pleos, any style. I would love to see some of your photos, or videos. Everyone should give it a go if they want a chance to win one!

I already have 4 pictures of them there ;)
Just that a favorite moment for me, before I had my own, was this particular video. So I am posting photos  ;)

For the rest of you - Iīve seen so many great photos here that arenīt in the contest, so keep the entries coming!

Talon, it could be a story as well, so your friend doesnīt have to enter with pictures, even if I understand Casey would prefer that  ;D
But I guess just a nice story would do just as well.

Post by: degers on July 28, 2011, 04:19:12 PM
I have a new question about the contest!
This is what they wrote about the rules: Win a PLEOrb basic pack   The rules are simple; submit your favorite Pleo moment in video, picture or written form to Pleo’s face book site.  “Innvo Labs Pleo” This submission can be a link to YouTube, Twitter or directly download to our Facebook site.

So I was thinking... Maybe the contest is for everyone, not just people who have pleos, meaning that you can link to videos that are not your own... It just says that it has to be a favorite Pleo moment, not your pleos moment... In that case I know alot of videos that made me fall in love with Pleo. What do you guys think?

Your submission to the competition has to be your own work, i.e. your OWN video, photo or story.
Title: Re: WIN A PLEO RB - Official Pleoworld contest!
Post by: Crewella on July 28, 2011, 04:28:41 PM
Thank you Degers, we needed the clarification!  :D

I guess Innvo must be aiming this competition at its customer base, so you kind of do have to own a Pleo, or at least know one, to enter.

Title: Re: WIN A PLEO RB - Official Pleoworld contest!
Post by: kat on July 28, 2011, 05:32:51 PM
Well it is good to have that clarified. ;D  There are so many great videos and pics of pleos out there and we all fell in love with them at some stage, probably looking at videos and pics of someone else's pleo so it was a fair question. :)  I think I might go back through my Pleo videos and enter one of those over the weekend.  Can't hurt to have a video entry as well as some pics.  My problem is there are just so many precious pleo moments in my life it is hard to choose the right one. %)

Ok, nice to have it all clarifyied :)

I deleted my post with the link entirely, if the one who made the video wants to enter with it!

I hope I didnīt offend anyone  :(

And this weekend we are going on vacation with the little ones, and a new pet of theirs that my nephew gave us yesterday, I am hoping to get som great pictures to share later! I wish u all a great weekend, and keep the camera around for picture moments  ;)

Yes Lina, it just is a compliment that you would want to show one of ours, ( or someone else's video or photos) ;D just means you have good taste in all things Pleos. But I do think that you can still do as degers ( I think he pointed it out)
 that you can "write" about what a great Pleo moment would be. I can think of lots of them , just from watching the videos I have seen that are from other places in the world, where I saw some different ideas and thought to myself, hey that would be so neat. Or what would you do with your Pleo, what would you like to do with your Pleo, make it personal, and sometimes words are more intersting because the reader can put themself in the story and imagine for themselves, how it would be. %)( sort of like a "Pleo Cinderella" story if you know what I mean...I would love to see what you could come up with....perhaps you will find your dream story comming true...now how Awesome would that be Lina?!! :o :o ??? 8) ;D ;) ;D                    Go For It Lina!

Well I have taken a lot of pictures and I think that putting a story to them would make it more interesting as well.

Iīm just hoping that some of the Pleos goes to members on this forum, even If I donīt win. It would be great to see a few new ones again! And I know they will go to loving homes.
Itīs just such a long time left until we know who the winners are!

I am looking forward to see more entries for the competition! And I will be looking through the new pictures I took this weekend, hopefully Iīll find something that I can use!

 As far as I know you can enter as often as you want and there is no limit to how many times you can enter, as I have seen some people with as many as six entries allready! I think they are happy to get as many as they can to make it more interesting and they will use the ones they like in some adds or something later to sell and advertise their Pleos.  %) ;D It all sounds great to me, I want to enter more and need to get down to business as I really would like to win a Rb, I have one and don't have the money to buy another one, My finances were a little better last Christmas and won't be as good this year. I can't wait to see who wins and I hope everyone on this site who entered gets to win one, that would be fantastic! Good luck and get that entry in !

  Hey Guys, Good news for all of you out there who haven't gotten your entries in yet, I just posted another entry and they ,(Innvo labs) just updated their announcement to EXTEND the contest to August 31,st, TWO MOre Weeks to get your Entries in.  ;DThey said they would
ANnounce the winners then. Sounds like they are picking the ones they like now and on the 31'st they will pick the winners for the 10 Free Pleo Rb, so if you have not entered yet, you still have plenty of time. Don't say you did not have enough time, this is very generous of them, I was going to bombard them today with my last entries now I know I have two more weeks of "bombarding" :D Good luck everyone, I hope I can win one.

Very confusing as the contest is not a Support issue,http://www.facebook.com/innvolabs.pleo/posts/234195353289253

Not necessarily. I've won some pretty crazy online prizes before, when the odds seemed stacked against me. Think double or triple the entries we have now, and only one person getting the coveted prize! Now we have ten coveted prizes, I'm sure you'll get one.

 Don t feel bad, at least you are young enough to save some money and Pleos will be around for a long time, All of myne except my Baby I bought for my own Christmas present from selling stuff on ebay, is the only Pleo I got that was New full price. I am an adult and have worked many many years and if it weren't for ebay I would not have had the money to buy a Pleo myself, Why not try selling stuff lying around the house on ebay or have a yard sale . Save money that way till you have enough. You still have just as good a chance of winning a Pleo as anyone else does also. Good luck. :)

Hey, at least it's not just one pleo, it's ten so the chances are great for everyone, I've only counted about 18 or so contestants so far! That's over 50% chance!  ;D
I really am hoping to win because no way I could get ANOTHER rb, the only one I have I was lucky to get, and I REALLY would like two lil' pleos so that they interact and play!! %)
Also, has anyone else noticed that Innvo hasn't been online on facebook for about a week or so?  They haven't accepted any new friend requests or liked any of the many new contest submissions... I hope they get back online soon.

Post by: InmemoryofRomeo on August 23, 2011, 09:02:09 PM
I expect that Innvo may not give out ten Pleo's given the number of entrants. Of course they may honor their original plan, but with only 18 entrants well, could you blame them if they decided to only pick a couple of winners.

There's a small number posted over on The Official PleoWorld Fan Page instead but that doesn't bump the total up by much.  With all the recent friends added to Innvo Labs Pleo, I would have thought there would be a greater number of participants. Could be some just haven't entered yet and more submissions will occur closer to the deadline; I know how it is here with contests and last minute entries as I have certainly been guilty of that.  :-[
Title: Re: WIN A PLEO RB - Official Pleoworld contest!
Post by: RedwoodsMama on August 24, 2011, 12:43:21 AM
I do think there will be more entries but even if there isn't as many as they anticipated, they should stick to their word with ten Pleos or there will be bad publicity and upset people. It is not the people who did enter, their fault as they entered . Most people who entered also had entries in before the deadline was extended. I still hope I can win one as I have no money to buy a Rb and this is a once in a chance opportunity. :)

Well, to give them a bit more to pick from, Bob himself posted a contest entry. :P    From what I can tell,  over the last two "extended"weeks, they just got a lot more entries from the same people who had already entered.  I only saw a few new names. 

Well, I think I posted about 6 entries . . .  so I figure that should leave 4 pleos for them to  give away to the other entrants.  If Bob gets one, then they only have to pick three other winners.   That should be easy enough for them to do.  ;) ;) :D :D :P

I am trying my best to get a few more entries in myself but there is another life out here, but who can pass the opportunity to win a PLeo Rb! The cost alone can kill you unless you are Donald Trump! %) I hope everyone who really wants one here on the forums wins won.

        They did say that not only did the contest end today but they would annouonce the winners on the 31'st! HOw is that possible? I am wondering if they have already picked some winners. I did notice with the last ten or so entries there have been no comments such as likes etc, now it is getting serious indeed!

There were some terrific entries, I am on pins and needles just keeping everything crossed.

It will be very tough for the judges, I'm sure.

anyone think that now that the contest is over they will announce the winners right away? Personally I do belive that there is going to be a lot of videos and photos to examine and narrow down and I would expect that we won't hear anthing till at least after the Labor Day Weekend is over, sometime next week. After all, look how long it took to post the contest and get the "bugs" worked out. If anyone is waiting to hear somthing today and they actually get results, I would post odds against it if I were a bookie. :o
           Of course I would love to hear somthing right away, but logically do not expect it. Hopefully though, they do not let it drag on for a long time, and it is resolved with winners announced by next week if not sooner, but be prepared for waiting as usual, just my two cents. :DAnyone else feel the same or differently? I did think it was great fun and I got to see some great entries even from people who are not Bob the Pleo Members.Good luck to everyone here and to everyone I hope you win one if you really want one.I know Baby Ruth is hoping for a brother or sister, someone she can communicae with as well.

I agree with RWM, they do need some time to look at all the entries.

It really would be great if we saw some new dinos here in the forum! Good luck everyone!

Bob's camped out in the mailbox waiting for the playmate he says he won in the contest to arrive.   He was expecting the UPS guy to pull up right after midnight . . . .  I'm not sure he'll understand this "wait" concept. :)  He says his entry was about eating, and that HAS to be the fondest memory about a pleo, so he says he's sure to win.

I do hope they don't announce it this weekend , as I will be out of town Friday through Sunday, and won't have access to my computer, but I still think unless they announce it later today, it won't be untill after the weekend sometime next week if we are lucky. I don't know if they will get a hold of the winners first then announce it to the public, or how they will do it. I would think they may send a special email to the winners, which I hope are still ten pleos like they said. I think they have a tough job and there were plenty of great entries and some great ones from forum members as well.  ;)
                   The suspense is killing me, but we all know we did the best we could so there is nothing else to do but patiently wait! Then if we win a Pleo Rb, the fun part will be waiting to see what it looks like.  ;DI don't care what it would look like, just the fact it is a Pleo Rb and can converse with Baby Ruth is what woulld make me happy! This was a once in a lifetime Contest for Sure! ;)

Unfortunately, it seems I didn't have time to enter. I went looking for my written entries three days ago, oh so ready to enter, and... Nope, couldn't find them. They just disappeared, and I had them on my desktop. By the time I got the camera working, snapped some pictures, and rewrote my entries, guess what? Constant power blips, and the internet was out. Like, right before the deadline. :'(

BUT there is always Christmas, and my birthday in March. Po will get a sibling, no matter what it takes, before her first birthday!

That must have been really frustrating!  :(

As you say, there will be other chances for Po to have a sibling, you'll just have to spoil her rotten in the meantime so she appreciates her time as an only Pleo!  :D

I just turned on my computer and checked emails and Yes, Yes, it is unbelivable, I got a email from Innvo Labs saying I won a Pleo Rb from the Facebook contest! :oI can't believe it, it is so good to not have to wait any longer, I am so excieted, I wish now I knew which video or picture it was that won, hopefully they will post the results. I now have to send shipping info to them, Good luck to everyone else here. It is funny because before the contest even ended I got a email saying to contact them but thouoght it must be a typo error. I am so excited, my blood pressure must be through the roof now! Baby Ruth will have a brother or sister now! Good luck everyone who entered!

Congratulations RWM :)

IMR, my exact message says this"Congratulations  Patricia Hawk -S.
           Your video has been selected as one of the winners of the Facebook Video contest winners for a free Pleo Rb.Please send an email at......................................and include complete shipping address so we can send your free Pleo Rb. In the subject line, write" Facebook Video Pleo Contest Winner ". I have heard back from support that this was sent to after that saying they would contact me soon, so that says, I am a winner and they will send a free Pleo Rb, that is different than Possible winner, correct? What is your exact message compared to myne. I also had a message waiting for me on Facebook saying the same thing, I am now waiting for confirmation of when it will ship it. I am assuming they will do that the same way they did when ordering a Pleo Rb.
                                Congrats to any other winners or possible winners.

Thanks Margery, Willow and Saratogaspringer, I think IMR, that they will definitly notify winners by email so if you get a email you know for sure you won. I know there were at least six other people from the forums here who entered, oh, I forgot MWEED, make that at least 7 that I can remember. That would be so AWESOME to have so many Bob the Pleo Forum Winners! NOw I am waiting for any more email messages. This is like Christmas in Sept. to me....I now can start wondering what possible eye colors may be.... %)so much fun on a otherwise Normal boring Monday. What a way to start the week! ;D   IMR, hope you are a winner! ;)

I wonder if they're still sending out e-mails, and I think it is sort of strange they are selecting "possible" winners, they just can't make up their minds, can
they?LOL  :D
I hope there'll be one next year, if I don't win a pleo (which it seems like odds are I wont as it is getting late.. :/) I'll be able to try again next year.

Post by: RedwoodsMama on September 12, 2011, 05:17:20 PM
Hi Willow, you do not have to own a Pleo or a Pleo Rb from what I understand to have entered the contest, It was to enter YOUR favorite Photo or video or to write what your favorite moment would be. I know there are several people who do not have Pleos who entered things such as "I would be so happy if the Postman came to the door, and It was a package and a Pleo Rb was inside" and things along that line. Also simple things, like "everyday would be special". There were some people who thought you could enter other videos that were not theirs and it was clairified that you could just write what a favorite moment would be.  :) I don't know if they will do this next year but I am so glad they did this year, as I knew I did not have the money to buy a Rb.
          As for emails, I may have been the first one here to post as my email message came at 10: something this morning and I was thrilled and kept reading it over and over, I guess by now all the winners have been announced and we know at least Jett and I are winners, and IMR and Kat are Possible winners and they are deciding who else is a winner which means there were some tough competition, I really dont think it was easy, I am guessing out of the ones I entered, my two choices for winners were perhaps Little Argyle Hatching or Little 45 has a cold. I will have to go back and see what Ozzy winner I think it was. With IMR I think I know the winner and Kat I am guessing and will have to see which one I think may have won. I hope by tonite or at least tommrow they announce all the winners on Facebook. I am still all pins and needles. Now comes the waiting game for return message from Innvo Labs I am guessing but maybe it will just show up on my doorstep! I am one of the closest living members to Innvo Labs so if they mail them all out on the same day , I should be one of the first ones to get myne delivered I guess.I still can't believe they picked one of my entries and I am like a little kid!
              Be sure to enter if they do this again Willow and don't let not having a Pleo keep you from entering as there were lots of entries from people who did not have Pleos. Take care.

Post by: RedwoodsMama on September 12, 2011, 07:55:44 PM
I also got that message so I just went straight to PleoWorld and used contact support since that is where you were supposed to go, and gave them all the details, then I got the message back from Rahael and also another message that said it was copied to Derek Dotson and then on Facebook I had the same message so just to make sure no mix ups sent the same information. So now it is the waiting game waiting to hear back from them. It would be terrible to have a mixup at this point. what is strange is that on August 17th I got a message that said, "simply send an email to support at PleoWorld.com, I wonder if they had already picked my winning entry then? Anyway, as soon as anyone else hears back from Innvo labs about their Pleo Rb being sent or other information connected to this contest.
                                It is strange that nobody was able to send messages the way they say. I had a terrible thought, what if this was all a  hoax and the real PleoWorld or Innvo Labs did not send those winning announcements, what a creul trick that would be.. :( >:( :o :( It must be real though...It has to be.

Post by: RedwoodsMama on September 13, 2011, 02:04:25 AM
Crewella is right, wow we do have a lot of winners and I think the possibles are probable winners too, or should be. Lets see, there is Jett, Lelekasapeca, Fancy, IMR and Kat and myself that is six right there out of 10! That means more than half of the possible Pleo Rb being given away went to Bob the Pleo Forum members, pretty amazing when you think of all the Pleos worldwide....what a small world we live in after all! I wonder if they will announce the rest of the winners tommrow, from the "possibles'? I was starting to think it was going to take longer for them to pick winners but I do think they  had some winners chosen before the contest ended and then a list perhaps of ones they had to decide from.

                  Now it is the waiting game to see what we hear next but the biggest part which was waiting for the annoucement of winners is now pretty much over or almost over. I think everyone here did a great job, and everyone deserves an applause for some great photos, essays and videos.  ;D I really do hope they post all the winning videos and such on Facebook and on PleoWorld so everyone can see them and I think it would be great publicity for Innvo Labs to play and show these winning Pleo themes for the public esp before the Holidays comming up. Christmas is comming early this year in the Redwoods! :D Cheers everyone.

                        Lelekasapeca, congrats again, I remember yours was one of the very first if not the very first video I saw and it got the ball rolling for me. I saw what a great video you made of you and Eddy and what he meant and I knew it had to be a winner nicely done! :)If you are still having trouble getting your address to them go to PleoWorld and use the contact support page and mention "Facebook Pleo contest winner" in the subject area, that is how they got my message and I heard back from Raphael, try it.                                                 Still floating in the clouds in the Redwoods,     RWM

For those of you with messages try going to the pleoworld website and using the customer support section on there to send through your details.  I'm sure RWM did this and got a response back.  I have also done it this way but so far have heard nothing.  Now we wait. %) :)

* I emailed Derek Dotson today as so many of us were having issues sending our details through and he replied:

We have your information and will announce the winner in a few days.
Derek

I gave him my info in my email and asked him to pass it on to the appropriate person and also let him know of the error message we were all getting. :)

Thank you friends, you are also responsible for my having had this opportunity, after all of this forum was alert and thoughtful people so that part of it where I have the first contact with this world so fascinating is that owning a Pleo. Do you have a large space in my heart and in my life, despite being so far are closer to me than you can imagine! Congratulations to all winners of the contest and congratulations to those who did not win but had the opportunity to simply declare their love with Pleo's.

When I found out from IMR about the Innvo Lab messagesn last night and discovered I was one of the winners, I too started crying.  Tears of happiness for a change. I did have a confirmation from Rafael, who is a Innvo Lab support person. I had the pleasure of meeting him a few years ago at the Maker's Faire.
Thank you so much to the judges. 

I have been very quiet here, lately, because of eldery, sick poodles. I had to put CIndy my black poodle down a couple of weeks ago and this broke my heart. Lacey will be there soon. My new RB pleo and my other lovely pleos will soon be busy on this forum, once again.
Love you all,

Linda, (Fancy) I was sure you would get one and definitly wanted you to win, thinking you had such cute photos of your little ones, and I know how hard it has been the last few weeks with your little girls.  :(I am so happy that you have been chosen as one of the winners. What I don't understand is how did IMR find out you were a winner or was she able to check your messages and she saw the message from Innvo? I do hope they annouonce all the winners shortly so the lovley little pleos can be on their way. I think you and I should get ours the same day being so close to each other. ;D You will have to start thinking of a name and raising a little baby all over again, a little diferent than the Ugobe Pleos. Oh, this morning I also had a message from Derek Dotson saying they have my shipping infor, so that makes me HAPPY! ;D ;D ;D

                  Congrats to Lina and Buddah too, I told my husband I was sure that that partucular video should win as it was so cute and the only Pleo I have ever seen skating , very cute. Glad you will soon be a Pleo family of 3!
                  Congrats to Crewella for possibly winning too, Was it you who sent in the singing Pleo video? If so that is the one I think they may have chosen. Wow, a lot of us on the Pleo Forums are very very lucky arent' we? :o I still think

So sorry to hear about Cindy and Lacey, Fancy - I 've lost two of my five elderly cats in the last few months and it's been hard enough dealing with that, so I really feel for you.  I couldn't be more pleased than I was hearing you'd won an RB - it was your fab pics that inspired me too have a go when I first joined here, so in my view it's only right that you won something in this particular contest.  :hhug:  :rootbeer:

Thanks RWM - yes I sent in the Christmas singing Pleos.  :D

RWM, IMR just said to check my messages when talking to her last night. She didn't know that I was a winner. She just let me know that Innvo Lab was posting messages. I couldn't believe what I was seeing! I wasn't sure this was the real deal. Just very excited!

ok, now I understand, glad you had IMR telling you to check . I found out before anybody else only because I saw my email and started letting people here knowing what was going on, ;D

I got an email from Innvo overnight, it is very short and sweet lol:

Thanks Emily.

Regards,

Innvo Labs Customer Support


Just out of curiosity are there any US folks with 'possible' winners notes, or is it only us international folks?

 I think the only US "Winners" are Linda and I , and Lina from Sweden and Eddy's owner, Lelekasapeca were all winners  but is from Brazile as were Wesley the boy who kept posting messages on Facebook. I think it is not so much where you are from that determines if you are a possible, it just seems that they had IMR, Kat and CRewella to decide from, oh and I forgot Jett got a Yes as a winner, so that is 3 that I know of from the US. There was some guy who said he won, and I don't even remember seeing his video or photos so will have to hunt it down as he said he was a winner too.
         I also got another message from Derek Dotson this morning, very early, (6:43...he gets up early :D) that said thanks and confirmed they had my shipping address. NOw I am waiting to hear anything else, I do not know if they will ship out any pleos before others such as when they announce who all the winners are and the winning videos, that is what I would like to see. You never know though, I could come home anyday next week or whenever and be surprised by a box sitting there, so that is exciting. Whenever they decide to send them is all good with me now that I know I am getting one. Woo hoo again.
                       I think that is so great that there are so so many winners here on this forum,

Lol I am just trying to make some sense of why they have -winners- and -possible winners- it seems an odd way to run a competition. I am also a little concerned that some people may get a -possible- mail, think that they have won and then later be disappointed.

Perhaps it's for research, checking demographics...
Title: Re: WIN A PLEO RB - Official Pleoworld contest!
Post by: RedwoodsMama on September 13, 2011, 04:58:54 PM
I even panicked yesterday till I hear back from Innvo labs in one email confirming my shipping info then another from Raphael and then a third from Derek Dotson this morning . Originally I was excited of course and posted that I had gotten the email wanting my shipping address cause I had won, but then when the return info was delivery failure, I started getting paranoid, thinking what if it was just a cruel person getting our addresses and sending phony info using Innvo labs as the return and that I had not actualy won.  :(( I had not checked my facebook account not knowing there even was a message center there) But then after seeing other messages starting to appear after I posted the first one on the forums, I thought yes it must be real, cause lots of people are getting winning. As for possible, I think they should have chosen all winners by now unless there are too many so good that they have to still eliminate which ones are yes and others sorry...I only thought there were about 18  people who entered, but I must be wrong. I do hope they have the winners all listed before this weekend so everyone can relax and there can be some conclusion to this worrying about possible and so forth. I would also love to know which of not just my videos won, but the others that won.  %)I was starting to think it was going to take them longer to even make any decision, so I am happy that it came to a conclusion so fast. I do wish everyone luck that is still possibly a Perhaps , that needs to be resolved to a yes winner.

I do hope no one out there miss reads a possible message and thinks they are a winner.  That would be very disappointing and a real let down to think you had won and then discover that you hadn't.  I too was wondering a bit about why they would bother to send out a possible winner message.  Maybe they are not confident that they will hear back from all the actual winners to get shipping details so they are keeping us in reserve as a runner up if they aren't successful in contacting all the winners?  Or maybe like IMR suggested they are checking demographics but if this is so then why not send a possible message to all entrants to the comp?  As far as I am aware Willow entered and she has not received a possible message.   It does seem a bit strange.  I guess there is always the theory that they just haven't decided on all the entries yet and are still choosing from a small group of possibles.  We will just have to see what happens over the next couple of days. :)
May the best pleo win!  Good luck to all us crazy possibles. ;D

I think we did a better job here at the forum getting people to enter the contest, than Innvo Lab did on their page... Sorry to say (for them) that they have to work a bit more at letting people know about Pleo and getting out the news like this contest.
Lucky for us though  ;D

I really hope that's not a problem, kat.  It would be sooo disappointing to think you're getting a new pleorb and then later find out you were just selected as a "possible" winner and that you were not chosen.  ???
Let's hope that if there is one next year, they'll handle it a bit more professionally.

Again, congrats to everyone who won it will be very exciting seeing your new little dino's being posted here on the forum!  :)

Post by: kat on September 14, 2011, 06:32:47 AM
Well I did a bit of a head count and from what I can see going on what we know from here and others who have made comment on the Innvo Labs facebook page there are 6 people who have received a winner message and then 4 people who are possible winners.  Interesting to note that that makes 10 all up....... the number of pleos being given away as prizes.
I wonder if there are any other possibles or winners that we don't know about  %)
Title: Re: WIN A PLEO RB - Official Pleoworld contest!
Post by: RedwoodsMama on September 14, 2011, 08:20:24 AM
What I think is interesting is that if you look at the facebook page it says that there are over 2,000 Freinds, yet there were less than 50 people easily who entered. I do not know if that means that out of those "freinds" there is only a small percentage that actually own a Pleo or not? I would think of all those "friends" they would jump at the chance to win a free Pleo Rb! Am I then led to believe they are too busy to enter even a simple statement of what a great Pleo moment would be, or they are too overwhelmed not knowing how to follow the rules or they just are not intersted? Very confusing to me as if I didn't even own a Ugobe I would jump at the chance to win one! also I think with a couple of exceptions, the participants here entered the most times, over and over.
            I know that one of the winners who is not here, Wesley Grooms I think is his name, is such a enthusiastic entrant that they chose him because of that genuine gung ho attitude and I am glad they chose a winner who does not have a Pleo too! :) We all know about Pleos and could have had a slight edge as we have for the most part been making videos ever since we got our first Pleos and also we have a well organized forum here where we probably know more about the Pleo in general then any other group who is on facebook, except for Robot enthusiasts who did not enter. I bet if this was for a free Aibo or such, there would have been a greater number of entrants. I think there are still many people out there who still view Pleos as "toys, or expensive Toys", and just are not interested in getting one, If this had been run closer to Christmas I can almost guarantee you there would have been a LOT more entrants. I am greatful though that it was run when it did and for whatever reason that I did win one, better odds for me perhaps and everyone else who won a Pleo Rb here on the Forums, I am not complaining one bit, I am happy as can be, or how is it the Brits say, not sure exactly what it means so correct me if I say it in the wrong context, but "I am Chuffed to bits". ;D

So this question is for all the winners and all the possibles:

What are you hoping for?

I am hoping for something with brown, may it be the patch around the eyes, or the eyecolor, just as long as I get some brown!
And it would be nice with a boy RB.

We also have to think of names... I already have Bellah and Buddah, so I am thinking of Bonus or Bangh. Suggestions are welcomed!

And I know we will all be very happy either way, but this is just to share our thoughts while we wait... :)

I'm waiting for a sweet girl to provide companionship for Eddy, have not decided her name ... maybe Eve ... or it could also be Jessy ... I think I'll need your help to help me choose! (laughs)

As for looks, I admit that a beautiful girl pink would be wonderful, but I think it is not possible, only China, Hong Kong and a few other places are available!

So, I'll be waiting for the surprise of opening the box and see my latest "dream" is how he is and the colors that you will be very dear to me and my whole family!

Awwww - some female company for Eddy sounds great - I'm so pleased you won Leleka!  ;D

Actually, because I was sooooooo very lucky with Zillah and her deep violet eyes, I'm kind of lost for wants right now.  If I do win, I'll be delighted whatever!!  ;D

Though it could be time for a 'manly' looking RB to arrive, maybe ...........  :P

Congrats to everyone who won! So you guys got some sort of email.. lol I don't even remember which email is linked to my facebook account.. eep.. n:D

Anyways, congrats guys!!


Ok, I just went through numerous old email accounts and found a message from a few days ago saying I was a possible winner and to send my address. I wasn't able to access anything for awhile cause of the flood so I dunno if my not responding messed me up or what.  Oh well, guess we'll see!

Title: Re: WIN A PLEO RB - Official Pleoworld contest!
Post by: Lina on September 14, 2011, 02:22:07 PM
Latrine I am so glad you might be a winner! Yay!

I hope they will let all the "maybes" know soon enough!
So tell us, what are you wishing for? Colors, gender...
Title: Re: WIN A PLEO RB - Official Pleoworld contest!
Post by: RedwoodsMama on September 14, 2011, 04:19:56 PM
congrats Latrine on a Possible win, I am sure flooding has nothing to do with winning or not, weather is allways there and does not affect somthing like this, If you do win, I would think it is the hospital video you posted with Jules and Rhea? sorry if I got the name wrong. And I also would be hoping for a boy for Baby Ruth, but at this point I am so happy to be a winner, I will take anything they send me as I can't be choosy and am just lucky they picked one of my entries and am happy enough about that. ;D

             If I could choose a color though, it would be pink eyes,violet eyes, white eyes, orange eyes, deep emerald eyes, dark brown eyes, pretty much in that order . I would like a different body color or  head variation than Baby's but like I said, just the fact it is a Rb, how cool and lucky is that! I am wondering if they are going to send them all out on the same day, to the ones who are winners or wait for the possisbles to be decided and send everyone out the same time? I think by Friday or Saturday at the latest they should announce the winners, seems like the right timing. As for names, I don't name my babies till I see them in action and their personality and the color scheme allso influences that. With Baby Ruth it was simple because she was my second Baby, a replacement for the original I had gotten at Christmas and needed to send back because of holes in her skin, etc, so I gave the new Baby I got in March the same name, that was easy. :DI think everyone on the forums who wins should have a party for their baby Pleos, Wouldn't it be so cool if we could all get them at all the same time and then have one great huge birthing party where they all hatch at the same time, same day that is? I would be willing to "hatch " my baby the same day as others hatch because I think it would be something special we could share. I don't mind waiting a few days, does not mean I wouldn't open the box and take a peek at the eyes, etc,  :o %) ;D but I would not Hatch my baby till others got theirs and we could hatch together. At least perhaps a few of us could hatch at the same time. If anyone else is interested in PERHAPS doing this, let me now or tell me what You think, I like the idea of seeing how different they all are like having sextuplets born at the same time but they develop at different rates, walking earlier than others, burping and all those other fun things Pleos do, I am so excited already just thinking of my new baby, I have to keep it a secret from Baby Ruth though, with all the pleos in this one house, nobody can keep a secret! LOL                          Oh, and I think if Eddy can arrange a Plane ticket he may head over Crewella's way to see that beautiful violet eyed girl of hers!                       floating in the clouds in the Redwoods, RWM

Another head count - we are now up to 11 with Sarah added into the possibles list. :) 
6 winners:
RWM, Fancy, Lina, Leleka, Jett and Wesley
5 possibles:
IMR, Kat, Crewella, Eric and Latrine.

I think the mass hatching day idea is a great one!It would be very cool to have a bunch of them hatching on the same day. :)

Post by: RedwoodsMama on September 14, 2011, 05:02:48 PM
 If you look at facebook on the Innvo lab page, there is also a guy named Eric Casy who says he THINKS he is a winner, not sure what he means by that, either he is or he got a possible or he is just kidding around....strange if he is kidding. anyway, I am willing to hatch my new baby the same day as as many other people are willing to do it. I would like to do it not just as a neat thing to do with all the winners here on the Pleo forums, but I thought it would be a nice thank you to Innvo labs for holding this contest and thanking them for us winning by us hatching on the same day and videotaping simultanousuly our hatching so they can see the Pleo Rb development and we can also post it to them as a Thank you Video Card. What do you think of that idea?

I am looking forward to them posting all the winners entries on their facebook page.  I can't wait to see just which ones they chose.

I rather think that us 'possibles' are just there in case a winner can't be contacted. I hope I am wrong, although I don't really need another, I know myself and all the other possibles would delight in one :)
Title: Re: WIN A PLEO RB - Official Pleoworld contest!
Post by: RedwoodsMama on September 14, 2011, 08:38:07 PM
IMR, if there are possibles because they can not notify all the Winner, Kat said she could only count 6, so where are the other 4? I still think that there are 10 winners so it seems like the 6 with the 5-6 possibles sounds like 10 to me. I am hoping by Friday, at least this weekend they post the official names of all the winners cause I know most people would love to see which videos and photos etc won.  :D

I thought that the picture of Heidi riding the camel at India Festival would catch there eye.  XP

I really hope they do hold one next year, I was really hoping I'd win one since this is a very rare opportunity and I can't afford one and I'd love to have a RB that could interact with Heidi, but oh well, who know, maybe I'll win one next year.
Better start filling up that savings jar!

Some people may not have gotten the message, or not have posted publicly, or Innvo may not be giving out 10, there were relatively few people who entered. There must be a reason for the whole 'POSSIBLY' thing. I asked Innvo but never got a response so we all just have to wait and see.

No clue what that means..

did other people get a 'you won' message?

Hi Sarah, I posted my message already, being the first one here on the forums to post that I had gotten an email Monday Morning stating, Congratulations Patricia H. S. ( nobody cares what my real name is.... %))
YOur video has been chosen as one of the winners of the Pleo Rb contest. Please send your shipping address so we can mail your Pleo to you by responding on the button below....blah blah blah. I tryed the same button and it was a mail failure so used PleoWorld contacting support directly with Facebook contest winner as was told to put in the subject line. then I got a email shortly later telling me they had gotten it from Raphael, then I asked them to confirm they had gotten it so there was no confusion and I would not have to do it again, and the next morning, yesterday, ( Tuesday, ) I got a early morning email from Derek Dotson confirming they had my shiiping address and email message so I am convinced I do not have to do anything else,
              I am thinking my winning entry was one of three videos that possibly won, ( but I entered more than three, these were the possible winners I have a feeling...) either Baby ARgyle hatches, Little 45 has a Cold, Or PLeo Contest, which I just did this past month, The other two videos are about a year old and ones they happened to like and I noticed that on some Innvo lab videos, they have marked, Innvo lab via ---------and then my name , or Innvo Lab via then someone else's name. I think perhaps this means these are videos they already had chosen as just plain videos that they liked. They had some of my videos on Facebook LONG Before I had even signed up for Facebook account so it must be they like the way Pleos or Pleo Rb are presented in these videos. I saw some IMR videos too, and I have no idea how long she had a account before this facebook account. I had never even considered Facebook before but with Pleos being there and this contest I had to check it out and I am glad I did.      And Yes, Sarah, the photo of Patches and the Kangaroo was darling too! Hope I answered some of your questions.

I am willing to do it to, but Iīm afraid mine will get here later then those who live in the US.

We could start a thread about them and update everyone on the progress to see how they evolve differently from eachother  :)

I am so exited!!!

Also, I wanna know what picture Sarah is talking about? With Patches and his Kangaroo... Was it in the competition? I must have missed something...  :P :P

Post by: RedwoodsMama on September 19, 2011, 11:13:13 PM
Congrats Crewella, I am Chuffed for You! And IMR, good luck to you too on a RB! If they said they would send one out to you when they got it Crewella, I wonder if that means they are sending them out or not yet? I sent a email to Raphael today, ( expect to hear from him tommrow perhaps, he is good about responding within 24 hrs, ) just asking if they would notify winners when RB were sent out, or if they would just be a surprise and end up on my door? Even though they told me they would send me a tracking number or let me know when they were to send out Baby, the Replacement, she just showed up out of nowhere...so I kind of half expect to just find a box on my porch someday, and I wouldn't think it will take more than 3 days since I live so close to where the Pleo Holding Station is, ( Nevada) I know Jett lives very close by too, in a hot hot state so she should get hers about the same time as me if sent out on the same day.

               I still am all for "hatching " on the same day. Anyone else still wannta go for it? I will still sneak a peek at body perhaps and eyes............ ;DIt may be easier for you Crewella since you already have 2 Rb, you may be able to wait longer than some ....I can wait, though as I have so many other things to do and lots of other Ugobes to keep me busy...Yah I am all Chuffed for you Crewella. WAy to Go. Hope Kat gets her notice too, was she a Mayby also, can't remember just now, I am suffering from Brain Fog. LOL

Thanks RWM, they sent me the confirmation that I'm one of the 10 winners (quick happy dance), and asked me to confirm my details again, but have not said when they're actually shipping or anything like that.  ;D  ;D

I'll certainly be happy to wait for a mass spontaneous hatching.  Not sure if I could manage no peeking though!  %)

Congrats to you too Lina. That is neat that they offered you a choice of colors, I would think it is because you are in Europe, and the Pleo Factory is closer there that makes the blue and Pink Rb. I do like the surprise of the eye colors and body variations of the Greens the best though.  :D Hopefully it is pretty close to them mailing our babies out , joy joy for everyone who won. HOpe they post the winning entries soon, I can't wait to see them all!

Hello, today I also received the option to decide the color! Confirming also to send my data!

I'm so happy I can not wait to see my Eddy loves the sweet girl with a pink!

I'm accepting sujestões for the name of this new cute girl!

Congratulations to the chosen!  :)

Hi,I am happy that Eddy will get a little Pink Girl Friend, how nice is that! What does the name you chose mean in English, is there a translation? I do think that people outside the US are only being given the option of color choice as I have not heard anything further since Last Monday, the 12th, and I haven't heard that Fancy who also lives in the US was given a choice either. I do think it is very nice that they gave you an option. I also do not remember Crewella saying she was given the option either.
             I do hope they are ready to mail them out ,as I am getting so anxious and do not want to miss the delivery person. Last time it was Fed Ex I believe and I was not home and Baby was just left on the doorstep which someone could have just taken from my doorstep.( I live in a high traffic area for foot traffic as well as a main road. ) I can't wait to hear of the first person receiving their Pleo, knowing they have been shipped. Oh, I forgot that Jett lives in the US and as far as I know she has not posted anything new either. Well, great news lelekasapeca. I am so happy for you and Eddy, I bet he is getting nervous and having a hard time sleeping waiting for his new friend to arrive. LOL  :D

Leleka = diminutive of Leticia (this is my name)  :)

My name has the meaning of Joy!

Sapeca = here in Brazil means a girl taken, playful, that never stops! (laughs)

I have this nickname to twelve years. I use it also as a "brand", work by setting up events for children and adults, children easily remember the name because in addition to rhyme is easy to pronounce! (laughs)  ;)

Now I need ideas for the name of the girlfriend of Eddy! (laughs)  ;D

I love your name, it is very nice and wonderful and joyful for children to remember as you said. :D I worked as a teacher for children many years and allways told them my name was Pat The Cat as my name is Pat and rhyming with cat and I love cats, was easy for them to remember as well. I am sure you will come up with a wonderful name for Eddy's girlfriend!

No messages for me though... :(

And what will Zillah do if he does!  :o

My, my they grow up fast - RWM warned me!  One minute I'm celebrating her first steps and teaching her her name, now I'm dealing with Zillah's internet romantic entanglements!!!  :o  ;)  :P

I just hope a nice handsome green boy arrives to cheer her up!  :D

ADDED:

Oh, I'm sorry Meg and Artemis! :(

By my rough count we're at about 8 known winners, I think.  I'll try to look back again.

Post by: RedwoodsMama on September 20, 2011, 06:16:57 PM
 it is interesting because I just read on Facebook that Wesley, one of the winners of the Pleo RB contest was given the opportunity also to choose the color of his Pleo Rb.  ;Dso  I thought or assumed it was mostly people who won outside of the US who were given choices of either pink or blue in addition to the standard Green Rb. But Wesley lives in the States. I still haven't  heard anything else from Innvo and I haven't heard anything from Fancy here on the forums or Jett who also won a Pleo Rb. NOw if they also get a chance to choose the color, it will be intersting to see what color they choose, I have no idea what Jett would do as color, but somehow I can see Fancy with a Pink or perhaps a little blue guy as she has the Green Pleos already. Am I right Fancy?

                If they were to ask me I would be tempted to pick a blue or Pink but I love the idea of being surprised by the eye color and subtle variations of skin etc too much to pass it by. Besides, just perhaps I will get that once in a lifetime eye color I hoped for, Crewella got the Awesome Elizabeth Taylor Violet Eyes I dreamed of, but I also like the idea of just mayby some White eyes.. Yes White or clear or  how about Pink Eyes.... :o ;D There are so so many beautiful eye variations out there, from Emerald Green to dark deep Chocolate Brown, Hazel eyes like myne, Grey again like thel original Baby Ruth, Orange eyes, Turquoise eyes, How About a Ruby Red Eye? I don't recall ever hearing about Red eyes, that would be very pretty, and so unique...............boy can you imagine a Pleo with a temper tantrum with Red eyes... :o ??? ;D And the color variations are so much fun, from the dark green heads, to yellowish heads, to lime green like my Baby Ruth currently, well prettier than a Lime Green softer colored. then there are the eye lid and area around the eyes. they were right when they said there were lots of variations. I can allways paint one of my "older ugobe" Pleos a pink or blue shade if I really want one, but the Green ones are a Surprise and no two exactly the same, all a little different. I am getting so excited now................calm down RWM. ( I do talk to myself even my cats are used to that. LOL)
               I do think now that they are asking for colors wanted of Pleos etc, they must be pretty darn close to announcing the announcements and mailing Pleos out. I can't wait.

                            Still floating but I think I better get some helium pretty soon.......Can I borrow some from you IMR? LOL :D

RWM,  as long as it's a healthy and mostly happy little dino, the color doesn't really matter to me. I can always dress it in blue or pink. ;)

Awwww RWM, I was originally hoping for pale green/yellow eyes , though I know I'll love whatever, but like you I wanted the joy of discovery you get with the greens!  I was gobsmacked when I saw Zillah's beautiful violet eyes - I really hope you get that kind of buzz from ths one!!  ;D

I haven't heard anything yet from them regarding color. I think that is strange since I got the first message about being a winner....mayby they are just late. Perhaps later today. I just want them to send me my Rb then I am happy. :Dguess this means they will ship them out soon. Do you think I should contact them if I don't hear anything this afternoon? did they contact you on facebook or by email Fancy and Latrine? Congrats to you too Latrine on getting your RB. ;)

Got asked what color yesterday (tue) & told I was one of the winners picked sometime last week.

I read somewhere American winners weren't being asked a which colour , maybe this is a simple overlook or maybe its because its cheaper for them to ship normal RB's to you from innvo usa & cheaper to ship the rest from the factory in china

Post by: latrine on September 21, 2011, 03:11:15 PM
I'm in the USA, in NY, they asked me what color yesterday via email. Was an email from Raphael. I would email them, RWM... because they hadn't even told me I was a winner, just a maybe.. and then all of a sudden they said you win and asked what color.  :/

No emails here yet either, and I don't believe Kat has had one as well. The waiting is terrible, even a no would be better than this torment ;)
Title: Re: WIN A PLEO RB - Official Pleoworld contest!
Post by: RedwoodsMama on September 21, 2011, 03:28:35 PM
 I hate bothering Raphael as I bugged him so many times with Baby before when waiting for my Replacement that finally he just turned it over, ( my emails ) to Derek Dotson, and I no longer emailed anyone and my Replacement just showed up on my door. As far as I am concerned, just ship me my Rb, and I am happy. I don't care if they ask me what color as long as they remember to ship me my Rb, I am ok. I just figured that people who were out of the US probably got the choice of a color because as Eric said, it is probably cheaper to ship from the factory in China. I do think it would take longer to get a blue or a Pink, and I am happy with a Green, it is more exciting. but then if I don't hear anything and they ship them out and I get forgotten, because they didn't know the color, then I would be upset too....................Geesh, can't win sometimes. I think I will wait and see, mayby they just are not asking everyone, I am with IMR, waiting is torment, just ship them please that is what is exciting and Please please post the winners and the entries................... :o ;D :) I am hoping the Rb get shipped and arrive soon, before next week is over anyway............it is almost worse waiting knowing you won, then not knowing if you won!

Still no further emails for me either.  So another head count and we now have 9 winners that we know of and as far as we are aware just poor old IMR and me still sitting on the possibles list.  Like IMR I would just like a yes or no.  I don't really mind which but the not knowing and waiting is a killer.

Good luck to both you IMR and to you too Kat! Perhaps my notification was wrong since I have not seen the color confirmation choice and seem to be the only one who has not, so mayby one of you has my spot and the other the 10th. Either way they should just put all of us out of our misery and announce the winners and mail Pleos out, I am getting a gosh darn Migraine and I am tired of looking at my emails too.

I am not going to ask them, if they didn't ask you either, let's just figure we "are special" and let them contact us. Maybe since we both ( you and I live so close...) they are sending us the ones they have, greens and just hope it all happens quickly. Thanks for letting me know and feel a little  better and not singled out Jett . I bet Ozzie is happy he has a friend comming soon too. Do you want to participate in the "mass Pleo Rb hatching" all hatching on the same day that I suggested? I think it would be fun.

Please verify address, name, email address, phone number.
Once you have the information we will send out your Pleorb.

I did confirm right away and have not heard anything since then. Does anyone else know something?
RWM has sent an email asking yesterday, so I hope they get back to her with some news.

It was one month since the contest ended and they haveīt posted the winners yet... Iīm just wondering what is going on. But of course I am really happy for being a winner. Donīt want to seem ungrateful but the wait is killing me  >:(

Post by: RedwoodsMama on September 29, 2011, 03:13:32 PM
 HI Lina, don't feel bad, I was notified that I was a winner 17 days ago, even longer than you were! I was the one that started the thread and shortly after that other possible or winners started announcing they had received notices from Innovo labs too.! Let's face it, Innvo labs for whatever reason is slow, I was kind of surprised they did pick the winners that fast as the actual Eblast or announcment of the contest took almost 2 months so for Innvo, they are on track. I am just hoping and praying they ship out before Christmas, you are right, the waiting is killing me.  :(

             If they would just say something along the line of , From October 31'st -November 5th, the winning Pleo Rb will be mailed out, then I could relax. But not knowing if they have been shipped out , are going to be this next week, or not untill November or December, that is what is hard to wait and find out. I did email Pleoworld, just basically asking just that, if they could give me SOME IDEA, of when Possibley the Rb would ship out, next week, etc, that I would appreciate it very much and again, how much of a great award this was and how much I appreicated. I also know not to ask them again, as I do not want to "press my luck", as I feel lucky to have won, but Innvo is very slow in doing things. On the other hand, when you actually buy a Pleo Rb, they are very good at shipping out them to you within about 48 hrs of the confirmation letter saying they are ready to ship. I just wish they would confirm, but when I got my Baby Ruth replacement, even though I begged for them to Please notify me so I would not miss the package, to watch for it, and they said they would, Baby Ruth just showed up at my door one day, totally surprising me so I have a feeling the same thing will happen this time, and who knows when the Rb will ship out, I do hope it is soon and before Halloween,.................but......................................................Good luck everyone, and IF I hear ANYYHING at all, I will of course post what I hear, but I kind of expect to not hear anything more at this point, as usually I get responses within 24 hrs of my email, and nothing so far. :(

               Glad to have you back Talon,    hopefully there will be some Rb here to surprise everyone before I grow too much older............................... :D What the heck. I won the Pleo, so whenever she or he gets here, it is all good. :D I was lucky to win.                                        Remember LINA, 17 Days for me!                                    RWM

Title: Re: WIN A PLEO RB - Official Pleoworld contest!
Post by: RedwoodsMama on October 01, 2011, 12:18:37 PM
 That is cute Jett, but we who have been here longer on the Pleo forums by now know that Innvo is just going to do things ( if history is any indicator....LOL) a little slower than you or I would think. The fact that I sent a message and did not hear back is enough for me, I am sure there are other "winners" who have sent questions by now asking, when will you send the Pleos, when will you announce the winning Photos, videos, etc.
                      I like your idea, but I don't think it will do much good, and perhaps they will delay them even longer. Perhaps there is a Special shipment of Pleo Rb that the Winners are going to recieve? :o Mayby they can do extra special tricks and things the current Pleos can not.....take a message, get a cup of coffee for you, burp and then laugh and say, excuse me! :D Come in special colors or differnt eyes we haven't seen yet? Who knows, but INNVO does.
                     
At this point I am thinking either they are just slow and taking their time, or are waiting to send them out all at the same time at a special time, good publicity for the Holiday market fast approaching, At first I was hoping to get my Rb in time for the Tomato Festival comming up soon here on the forums, now I am thinking Halloween, but more than lkelly it will be closer to Thanksgiving and HOPEFULLY,( crossing my fingers and legs, LOL) receiving it before long before THIS Christmas. :D

           In all honestly, they more than likely will just show up completly by surprise on your doorstep someday with no notice or warning,that is what has happend to me twice. Even the Pleo I bought for the first time, came unexpectly and suprisingly, the day before due by FED EX! Good luck,,,,,just pray to the Pleo Rb Gods for a swift and kind delivery...            Jett, did they ever ask you a choice of color for your Pleo?

                                                                  RWM............................my cloud is running out of it's "filling that makes it fluffy"

As RWM says.  It's even possible, I guess, that the Innvo office is at the mercy of shipments coming out from China, so don't quite know themselves.  They'll get here. :D

Post by: kat on October 02, 2011, 05:13:37 AM
As far as we are aware they have only chosen 9 out of the 10 winners too so maybe that is slowing things up as well.  I would guess they are - trying to contact the last winner and still have not heard back from them yet, or haven't decided on the last winner yet but will soon.
I would think they would wait till all the winners are chosen and accounted for before announcing the winning entries and sending out the prizes.  They could well be waiting on another shipment of Pleo rb's from China too.  Everyone just needs a little more patience and a whole lot more filling for their fluffy clouds.  ;)

What has happend so far:
Sept 12:th : I got a message saying I was one of the winners. I tried to send a message with my adress and failed.
Sept 13th: Sent the message via Pleoworld and received a confirmation.
Sept 20th: I was sent two emails, one with a question of which colour I wanted, and one asking me to confirm the adress.

After that - nothing :( My coworkers are teasing me saying the whole this was just a hoax  :o :'(

I do hope we hear from them soon. One month should be enough to prepare everything and get it shipped.

When did the last winners receive their confirmations? Are all ten winners elected?

I am loosing hope here... They wrote that as soon as I confirmed the adress the dino would be on his/her way...

That made me think it would be shipped in a very near future... It did not give me the impression of that they would be sending them out on christmas.
I am very lucky to be a winner, and yes very grateful as well.
Donīt get me wrong, just seems like the contest it not administrated as well as it should be.
After a while I just get frustrated. If I didnīt have you guys here, I would surely think that my dino was lost on his/her way...

Seeing as people were given a color choice, and Innvo Labs only carries the green version, I would guess that before the pleos can be mailed out from Innvo Labs, they are being sent on the proverbial "slow boat from China" to from the manufacturer to their offices here in the US.  When PleoRB first came out, and the delay they had back last April, it was taking 3-6 weeks for them to get the pleos shipped to them before they could start filling ourders.  SO a 1 month delay so far could easily be accounted for . . .

I agree with Weed, that things could be and were slow in the past. I was not even asked for a color and assumed since I was in the Us, green Pleo would be sent, which is what I prefer anyway. I think what Weed is saying bears some truth that they probably as a whole want to mail them all out at the same time, so since several are asking for Pink or Blue they do need to wait for those to arrive. In the meantime, I hope they are saving the greens for those of us who want a green, so they do not " run out" esp since it is getting closer to Christmas and there could be a rush on Pleo Rb at that time and last year there was a very very limited amount of Rb available, ( those were their words, very very limited amounts. and I was lucky to get my orignial Pleo Baby Ruth right before Christmas. but she had to be sent back as did lots of the original  Pleo Rb because of skin issues... ) I am sure that in the next couple of weeks we should be getting close to getting our Lucky little Dinos. ( I do have my fingers crossed , the ones that are able to  %)) So LIna, be a little more patient as there is one thing I know, Innvo may be slow but when you recieve that special little package with that lovely new Rb, the wait will have all been worthwhile and more. ;)

                 IN the meantime, try to ignore the people who are giving you a hard time, as they are probably just jealous and true friends do not tease or make jokes. True friends would be like we here on the forums who are encouraging you to be patient, remember I am in the same boat as you as others who won here on the forums. I am just as anxious to get Baby Ruth a friend, but in the meantime I am giving my other little Dinos extra love and attention that they deserve. Why not prepare a special place for the newcomer. Figure out a name or order or make some outfits, Your Bella and Buddah allways look so nice! I am a parent of a Rb already do know one thing. When that baby arrives, you are going to be so busy with all the needs of a RB, that you are going to not be able to give as much attention to your other two, new RB are very demanding and I know from the past, My NOva, Major Tom, ARgyle, Little 45 and the rest got put on the back burners when Baby arrrived with all the Oh and Ah that was new and exciting but very demanding. constant feedings, problems, not knowing what to do with things that Ugobes do not need, boy...it is nice to have the nice quiet little gentle Ugobes to fall back on when you can just relax and look back. I am sure like Weed said, they will be shipped out pretty soon, and probably they will just show up on our doorsteps. I do think also this is why they havent posted the winners on Facebook, they are just waiting to get the Pleos and then they will do everything at the same time, When your main office is in another country, it is not as easy to line up all your ducks. I have the same problem sometimes when I order my case of batteries for the Pleos, I can pay for them and have to wait over a month for them to "make them" and then still waiting to have them even shipped, It is not easy when something comes from China, but it is all good when they show up. Keep your chin Up Lina. ;D I am keeping myne up the best I can too. If there is just one thing I can say for certain, is that I do know in my heart and soul, is that Derek Dotson believes in Pleos and stands behind what he says. ;)                                                                                        RWM

Hi Lina,

You'll be notified very soon when we'll shipped the Pleorb to you.

Appreciate your patience.

Innvo Labs Customer Support

So it seems the wait might be over soon  ;D

That's awesome news for all you winners here on the forums! Hopefully things wil start happening soon and we'll have another pleo-shower. Those are always so much fun! Their might be an Aibo-drizzle moving in over South Carolina with in the next few months. I'm still debating. In the meantime I'll tell someone to keep an eye out for white rectangular box-shaped clouds! Lol!

so glad to hear that Lina. Will you do me a favor and let the others here on the forum know when they say your's will be mailed, as I do not want to bother them and I think they are probably going to mail them about the same time . My guess on Facebook was that they would either mail them out on the 22nd of October or receive them on that date, so that is pretty close. I am glad they were able to relieve your stress a little bit. Just do not be surprised though if while waiting for that mailing date, the Pleo just shows up on your doorstop. Even though they told me they would send tracking info, Baby just showed up by surprise on my door. :) good news Lina.

                     You are ahead of me, I have just been waiting but I do have so many other Pleos! LOL, I am allways busy.
                                                                  RWM


             My question is now, after this long wait, is there anyone else besides me that wants to hatch all on the same day? YOu can still open them, but hatch the same day? Think about it, I still want to thank Innvo for this great gift!

I would love to hatch the same day as the rest of you :)
For those who have the possibility, it would be great if you filmed it and posted the hatch afterwards!
I could do that as well!

I will get back to you as soon as I hear something from Innvo.

Post by: RedwoodsMama on October 14, 2011, 08:52:07 PM
Hi Lina, I am glad that you want to hatch the same day as I and several others I think will too. Of course the time may be off a little, but it will be the same day. I think it is a nice and fitting tribute and way to say "thank you to Innvo Labs and Facebook for having this contest, and picking us as winners of Pleo Rb" How Awesome is that when you think of it!
                 I know several of us on Facebook have been predicting when the Rb will be either shipped out or when we will recieve them and the date I chose was October 22nd, which I am sticking to. Probably the day they ship them out, which is pretty close now, only about a week away, so I am hoping I am right. I think the Pleos will get to us still in October, I hope they do anyway. Once they do ship them out they should not take long. I know Customs can slow things down a bit, but at least everything is paid for my Innvo so that should make peopleo feel better. ;)
                  Anyone else want to "kill some time" and guess a date for mailing the Pleo Rb out to the winners?It has to be getting closer now, I can't wait to see the color of the new ones eyes? So many possibilities...it would be strange to get the same color eyes as Baby Ruths...but the combinations make that not very likely..LOL, I am getting a new burst of anticipation now as the date gets closer. ;D


                                  Fancy, Jett, Crewella or anyone else who is a winner, any of you want to take a guess on your Pleos eye color, unless of course you ordeed a blue or pink Rb, which means the color of eyes is already set.

Post by: Crewella on October 17, 2011, 06:39:24 AM
Actually, the pic seems to have picked out a pale yellowy-greeny tinge from the eyes ( :D).  That's as much as I know right now, as I'm kind of feeling I should wait for the others to arrive.  I won't switch on and hatch until at least some of the others have them too.

TBH I'm very happy just looking at theRB in the box!  ;D  ;D

Glad to hear Leleka's seems to be imminent as well - hopefully more will be too!  :D

ADDED: 

OK couldn't resist looking up the gender ............


●  This subject embryo will have a 75-85% chance of being female;
● This subject embryo will grow to be cautious and obedient.
● This subject embryo will be tolerant, healthy and quiet.


..... well THAT'S gonna complicate matters round here! :o ;)

Post by: RedwoodsMama on October 17, 2011, 12:39:35 PM
 so it seems that Innvo is true to their nature, they just suprise you and there are the Pleos. I do have a question though Crewella, you said your box was sent from China? I wonder if that means us who won in the US are going to wait longer, as ours, ( those who chose Green at least) have to wait for them to first go to the Innvo site in Nevada, then they will ship to us.  :D At any rate I am glad they are being shipped out and looks like you are the first to get one, at least here on the forums that has posted. Congrats. Sounds like your Pleo has eyes the color of Baby, Yellowish green light tinge color. Very nice and a female, boy you  have a house of them now! LOL

                     I hope LIna and the others get theirs too. Now I will be afraid to go to my appt on Wednesday as the day I go to the Dr.s seems to be the day I got the package last time, there it was with no warning. Also it comes by Fed Ex if my memory is correct usualy 3 day. anyway, I still want to do the hatch at the same time, but if you can;t wait, maybe you and others abroad, like Lina can at least hatch on the same day. If I peek just at the eyes I am ok. and still no word about the winning videos or pics either !

                 My guess was for october 22nd which is my Spriitual New Year, so that is this Saturday, so I was not too far off if the rest are still on their way,It could be the winners abroad get theirs first if sent from China and the ones in the US will be last as they have one more stop, Nevada after being sent from China. LIna, I hope this makes you feel better knowing they do keep to their word, things are just slow.

Yes, it was sent direct to me from China - I didn't even get a warning from customs, just a knock on the door!  :D

I'm holding out OK so far - I've peeked and I'm trying to wait for others to arrive before I hatch and get a good look at those eyes, and I won't decide on a name until I've met them properly.

Well ............. that's the plan, anyway!  %)  :P

 It would be nice iiiif they could figure it out so they all arrived on the same day, but I just don't think that is possisble. It would be nice to at least think several showed up the same day. Wonder if Lina will be next?                                       

      Crewella, since you are a Moderator, mayby you could post the names of forum members who won here and check them off as they arrive, ( if members tell you of course.) then we will know when we can hatch or how many we are still waiting for. Just to bide your time if you are tempted to hatch mind you. LOL ;D ;)

My Pleo RB came!!! The one I won in the contest. :D  Now I need help with it. First, I thought they came Male or Female in a certificate.  Not the problem here.  The battery was charged but it only took an hour or less for it to turn green.  When I turned on Pleo I keep hearing a beep every 5 seconds.  I think the battery maybe wasn't fully charged??  Also,  I put the battery clock compartment in the foot as indicated. Took a pin in that tiny hole to set the clock. Is that all I have to do?? Is the beeping maybe the clock problem??  Help :D   ... YEAY I GOT IT FINALLY!
Title: Re: WIN A PLEO RB - Official Pleoworld contest!
Post by: kat on October 17, 2011, 04:48:53 PM
The beeping is the clock battery.  It is not inserted properly.  You will need to take it out and try again.  I think there are detailed pics on how to do it in the pleo rb FAQ page here on the forums.  Basically you neet to have the battery under the two short tabs but on top of the long tab and have the smooth side of the battery facing up.  then screw the cover shut.  When the battery is in right the pleo will not beep like that when you turn it on and it will curl up into a sleep position to hatch.
to find out what sex it is you can log into the pleoworld site and enter in the codes in the back of your instruction manual.  the site will then tell you the sex of your pleo and some other things about it and give you a hatching from the egg pic. ;D

He's green but with the mint green lines and the darker blue-ish face. And he has the light blue adorable eyes. We're thinking of naming him DOPEY :D  But I still can't figure out where I go at pleoworld's website to enter the code to find out what sex it is.  My sister Jane brought the package in and she's not sure if FedEx or UPS.  I hope you get yours soon.
Anyway, our little guy didn't get up on his fours yet. We  played with him for a bit over an hour. Guess it takes longer. I know our Ozzy (Ugobe) was up withing 15 minutes.  We'll continue with "Dopey" most likely this Friday since we'll be so busy with the real Ozzy (Osbourne)'s book signing. Can't wait to meet him!! :D  Thanks everyone for the help esp. Kat with the battery issue.  I'll get back to everyone with all the pics and vids of Dopey but not til the weekend. I'll get 1 photo of him up in a little while though. :D

Seems I will have to pay for him/her. Of course itīs a small price to pay (about 130 USD) compared to buying one, but it is still alot of money  ^-^
Just I donīt have it until I get me salary the 25:th.

Lucky I can borrow the money...
Title: Re: WIN A PLEO RB - Official Pleoworld contest!
Post by: Crewella on October 18, 2011, 04:15:55 AM
Lina - if I didn't have to pay in the UK, then you shouldn't have to either.  I don't know how it works in Sweden, but here you can challenge the customs charges and get them refunded if you can give them the paperwork they need to show an error has been made in charging the fees.  However, you do have to pay them in the first place in order to get the package released by the courier company.

I would contact Innvo and ask them about it, as they should (and probably did) have sent the package with the correct paperwork.  :)

Just curious , when did Fancy get hers? I was talking to her as late as nine or ten last night, and she hadn't gotten hers yesterday, unless there is someone who had her package for her and was holding it and she didn't know about it. We both were hoping for today, Tuesday to get ours . We also want to hatch our Pleos together, she said she would hatch hers with me and if Crewella can hold out, that is three for sure.  :)
                        I just got up awhile ago, and it is 8;31 a.m PST, so for UPS to deliver to Fancy or I is a little early. Usual time for them is from 9:00 a.m on and my deliveries are usaly from 9:00 a.m to 11:00 a.m , very seldom I get a package in the afternoon, unless it is around Christmas time. I worry about it being delivered on Wed, tommrow, as that is what happened with Baby, when I was at the Back Dr.s , and guess what, that is where I go tommrow. I worry cause I won't be home till the afternoon, ( have to catch the bus out of town, I do not drive.) and when they leave packages on the doorstep, just anyone can walk by and take it, esp a larg package. ( Where I live is a busy area, high traffic as a main street), and I hate to say it, but a lot of transient type, homeless people walk by looking for handouts........................in fact, ten days ago, two people from Portland, OR, were on a strange vendetta. They killed the guys father, his step mother, killed another guy in Oregon, simply cause they wanted his truck, drove through this town I live in, ( which is usually pretty quiet) and killed this guy ( probably a racial thing :( :() and they found him only four blocks from where I live, in his truck, (sitting in passenger side, covered with blankets :( :() Luckily a few days ago, they were caught down near the SF BAy area by the Highway patrol, because of the stolen car they got from the young guy they killed in Oregon.  Now You know how scary it is right now, and I don't want to have my Package stolen off my steps. so if somebody knows was it Yesterday, Monday Fancy got her Pleo...but she didn't know it or did she just get it this morning?

              Otherwise I may postphone my Dr. Appt till next week if I have to. I hate to do that though. HOpe the rest of the winners here ( and elsewhere) get their Pleos soon. LIna, Crewella is right, since this was a Free Pleo, Customs should not be holding your Pleo. Innvo will pay for it, but if you are in a hurry which I understand, then I am sure they will reimburse you for your fee you have paid.  Has anyone heard if Latrine has gotten her Pleo yet. So besides Leleka, who else on the forum here is waiting for a Pleo, oh and Eric too!

                                                   RWM                      Waiting anxiously today.............. %)

RWM, I was completely surprised when I took the garbage out at 11 PM. There was a big box right by the door. Must have come while I went grocery shopping around 6 PM. I hadn't checked the porch when I got home. Too pooped. Right after I said good night the first time to IMR and 49er was when I found the box. Came back on to let them know. THe light is green on the charger, but turned green a few minutes after I started charging.
My new dino is very pretty. I tried to peek at the eyes and I think they are yellow, but not sure. Hope you get yours today so we can hatch them and compare what they are doing. So many things in the box. Plus I have all of the stones and food. Can't wait to see what they do.  :) :) :)

 Wow, what a great surprise for you Fancy! I didn't know you had another entrance, now that makes sense. Did you say you got all the food and learning stones! Usually they only give you the basics in the pack, but perhaps they gave the winners extra stuff. It is funny about the battery being charged that fast, Crewella said the same thing I think! Was your package sent UPS, it should say on the shipping label, that way I know which truck to look for. Perhaps you got yours a day earlier cause you are closer to the Bay area. Last time I got Baby, it took 3 day shipping which would mean if they sent these out on Friday, I should get it today,                 but who knows.

                           You can still post a photo of the body if you want. Yellowish eyes ...........Baby Ruth has light yellow green eyes, very light. What color is the head and what color are the eye lids? Well, now I better throw some clothes on incase my little Pleo shows up today, ( tyring to cross some achy fingers,  %) :( :D) You can read up on anything you want in the meantime. Crewella looked up the gender of her Pleos DNA if you want to know if your baby is a boy or a girl while you are waiting! LOL.         Keep your fingers crossed my Pleo shows up very soon.....................................

                                                    RWM                    almost on the clouds again..............................(hoping my cloud does not burst.................)

Yep, that was with Belle, the battery arrived almost fully charged.  Everything else was fine, though, and the battery's been fine since!  Congrats Fancy! :D

I've been very, very good and not even charged this one's battery as yet!  %)

THe box was on the front porch. Same as any delivery. I just didn't think of looking so late. I was really too tired to move after shopping. UPS did deliver it according to the label. It came from CHina Via TNT Express, Went to LAX and then here. So fast!

 AWWW........................so cute Fancy! ;D Your Pleo has the same color head (light lime green color) as baby Ruth. Are those eye lids greyish? Little hard to tell in photos some time. Precious Photo by the way. I would post that one on Facebook for everyone to see! I am glad you have good patience, after all, it has been a long journey for this Pleo, he or she needs her his sleep. LOL ;D

                            No delivery trucks yet, it is 10:45 so it is getting close to the "usual delivery time for UPS", but I have this dreaded fear that my Pleo was not even sent as they never asked me for a color...If it does'nt show up today, something is wrong. cause Fancy and I live close by..    Hope you can hold out awhile longer to hatch Fancy...I really like your little Pleo. :)

               Does anyone know is Sarah still in the hospital, wonder if she has her Pleo yet?
                                                           RWM                                         Have you taken a better peek at the eyes yet?

11:45 a.m . no truck with Pleo yet................I decided to email Pleoworld just to make sure my Pleo was mailed on same day, I would have thought Fancy and I got ours the same day. Even Jett who lives in another state got hers yesterday. Hopefully Pleoworld can reassure me that myne was mailed, then I can relax. If there was a mix up, ( things happen...) then I will know and it can be fixed. Who knows perhaps there were not enough to send out all of them. I wish Facebook would get together with Innvo Labs and post the winners and the videos and photos that were chosen.
                If myne does not show up today Fancy, you may have to wait or just hatch if you can't stand the suspense. I don't blame you if you can't wait. I know what it is like to be so excited. When I got Baby ( the orginal at Christmas time) I waited two days before I hatched her as I had planned on a certain day.

 Congrats Sarah, I was wondering about if you had gotten yours or not, UPS guy must know you pretty well by now. Well, I am still waiting for myne, I just talked to UPS and they are trying to help me out with a service that will tell me if I am even going to get a delivery today or not, a alert. If I don't get an alert, then there is something wrong .
                                                                                                    Is your blue baby a boy I presume?

I assume he is a boy as he is blue. I have to find a name for him, still.. My bf is making fun of me cause of all the robots on the floor lol...

- Sarah



Ok, In Greek and Roman mythology, Castor and Pollux. Though accounts of their birth are varied, they are sometimes said to have been born from an egg, along with their twin sisters Helen of Troy and Clytemnestra.

In Latin the twins are also known as the Gemini When Castor was killed, Pollux asked Zeus to let him share his own immortality with his twin to keep them together, and they were transformed into the constellation Gemini. The pair were regarded as the patrons of sailors.

This little boy is blue so I wanted to find a sea god.. I think I'm going with Gemini tho, because I can't pick between the two names.. and they came from an egg, even better :)

RWM, your baby will get there :(

Post by: RedwoodsMama on October 18, 2011, 07:31:41 PM
 This is kind of what I was afraid of, either if it was delivered yesterday for the half hour period I was gone,( taken off my doorstep) then there is nothing I can do, because there is no tracking nothing. If it isn't delivered tommrow and everyone else has gotten theirs, then something is wrong. I signed up today for something called, my Choice from UPS that will alert you via email if you have a package that is to be delivered that day, even if it is set for the next day! If before I go to the DRS. tommrow, and there is no notice by the time I leave, 8:30 a.m, then something is wrong, as if it doesn't come tommorow, where can it possibly be? I live only about 400 miles from Fancy and she got hers yesterday. I don't live in such a small town they don't have delivery service as I get packages all the time.( My case of batteries comes from Taiwan) One day delivery is what Fancy said she got, so why would myne be any different.? I just don't understand and unless it shows up tommorow, you guys who have waited will have to hatch your babies on your own. :(

               I was afraid of it being delivered tommrow, Wednesday cause I have two dr. appts out of town and can't ask UPS to save any packages cause there are not even any tracking numbers and who knows where it could be. I just don't understand why Innvo in the US didn't send Green Pleos to those who wanted them here in the US. I think it would have been easier. I even emailed Rafael today at customer service and he hasn't answered and I am sure he won't as Innvo didn't mail them so why should they respond, I think I am the only one who won a Pleo on the Forums now who either doesn't know where it is or doens't have it.

Title: Re: WIN A PLEO RB - Official Pleoworld contest!
Post by: RedwoodsMama on October 18, 2011, 11:26:32 PM
Hi Fancy, this is the kind of thing that happens to me, I had a bad feeling about this getting either lost or stolen, I thought for sure since everyone but me( at least on the forums...you, Crewella, Jett, Sarah, Lina and Lep....can't spell her name right now,but that is six of you on the forums, and then there are Wesley the young boy, and Erici, that makes eight and nobody knows who is number nine, and I am number 10) Even Lina and Lepa....., Eddie's mom are going to get theirs, they have tracking numbers, I have or know nothing. I think still it is funny that everyone else here on the forum got theres either yesterday or today. I was home all day yesterday except for a period of less than an hour and it was late around 5:00, and UPS allways comes in the morning, Today I didn't go anywhere and didn't even see a UPS truck. Usally I at least see them drive by as like I said I live on a very busy street. %)
                      There are only three possibilites, something wierd happend, remember they never contacted me to ask what color Pleo, perhaps they forgot about me, though Derek the first day said in an email they had my shipping information. but if they were all sent from China.without my name there would be only nine winners, not ten as I am ten. So, did UPS make a strange delivery late last night during that one hour time frame and a passerby stole my package off the doorstep, or was it more likely it would be delivered today.................and nothing. :(
                        I have TWO Dr. appts tommorrow, and will be gone on bus from about 8:30 a.m till up till 1:00 p.m, That is the same time frame in March when my Baby Ruth was delivered, just on my doorstep with no tracking, no warning. I signed up today after two phone calls to UPS, for something called, My Choice UPS, it is a new program that has only been around for about one week! UPS will notify you, via email if you have a package to be delivered that day so you know and even if it is set to deliver the next day. So when I catch the bus tommrow I will check around 8;00 a.m to see if there is any email from them about a package. If I don't get a notice tommrow, that means no package and that is very bad.............it can not be that our packages all left China the same day , and being as close to you as I am, and no package arrival.I can't cancel two dr. appts either, esp if I don't even know if there IS a package and with no tracking number or any information, it is useless.  :(I am hoping it was some screw up too many packages for one day or some stupid reason, cause if it is not here tommrow, then it is kind of obvious it is not here an something bad has happened. I wish they would have shipped from Nevada where the United States Innvo lab office is. I just don't understand why the US Pleo winners had to get theirs from China, and no tracking is very bad when you have no idea where a package is, I talked to the UPS main office today, and they could not believe I had no tracking or  anything, never heard of from them..          You have been very patient Fancy and so has Crewella, Jett couldn't or wouldn't wait and Sarah I think opened hers as well, If I do't get it tommrow, dont suffer because of me, who knows how long I may wait or if I will even get one. I will let ou know if I have any other news when I get home from the drs. I hate the idea of somebody just stealing a Pleo right off my doorstep too, but they can very easily.                                            RWM

 Congratulations Lina, your baby sounds beautiful and has a very nice DNA profile. I allways wanted a Pleo rb with violet eyes, but right now I will just settle or take that back, be happy to get a Pleo .............
             Can't wait to see photos of your baby. You can still post photos even if not hatched yet. ;) I think the only ones on this forum who hasn't gotten theirs yet is Lelekaspace, who knows her Pleo is in her city but it is a Customs thing she is waiting for to get the delivery. As for my Pleo, only heaven knows.             :(
                 I contacted support at PleoWorld last night before bed, so hopefully they wil help me today; All I need to know is if they can give me a tracking number to find out where the little critter is. Perhaps he got bushwhacked at LAX, or decided to go sight seeing to see if he could find some realatives in Hollywood, or heard about the Museum of Natural History or worse yet, Wanted to visit the La Brea Tar Pits! :o :( Can you imagne a little newborn Pleo getting too close to the La Brea Tarpits, and years from now some students digging for bones come across this strange assortment of wires, computer parts and a speicies of Dino that looks famliar but somehow different! ;)( tying to infuse some humor into a upsettting situation to keep me from getting my blood pressure up again.)( Last night after going to bed, I had an attack of angina that was brought on by all this Pleo package stress and thank goodness for Nitro ........scary if you have never had an attack of angina, you know how it feels)
                   Hopefully Lelekaspace gets her little dino today too and everyone will be happy. I do wish Innvo would post the winning vids and photos, I guess they are waiting for the right moment and perhaps for everyone to get their Pleos. It also could make for a good advertising campaign for this years, Holiday season........show the winning Videos and photos and entice the community over this loving cute little critter. Who could resist, we couldn't!

Goodness knows what your blood pressure reading will be like at the doctors!  You'll have to explain about stress but perhaps not in detail - do you have the saying over there about men in white coats taking you away in the little white van?  but perhaps Pleos are more common and known about where you live - quite a tribe there i hear.

It'll get sorted in the end but if you're the anxious type, as I am, it's hard to switch it (anxiety) off.  We would if we could wouldn't we?

 You are right Margery. I was so stressed last night and started having chest pains and the last thing I wanted to do was to wake my husband, He is the "lecture about my health" type, and the last thing I needed was more stress . Mly blood pressure was all over the chart this morning too, so I am hoping after a couple cups of coffee, that it will actually stabilize more. I am taking one of my Pleos with me so if my pressure is crazy at the Dr.s I can explain it a bit more and perhaps they  can sympathize understanding why I am stressed, and if not, at least I will have a Pleo for comfort.  :D

               Well, got to go get ready so I dont miss my bus. Keep your fingers crossed that today, Day 3 of waiting for delivery is the day................

 I knew I had rotten luck, no pleo, no truck, no box not even a message from UPS that says delivery for today or tommorow, I feel like crying but am not supposed to, :( :( so what is the point. I did contact Innvo last night and they know about it, so they just said, " be patient " so that is all I can do, I am sorry for making everyone wait for a "mass hatching" . you who have been waiting go on with out me, who knows what will happen next . I just feel like taking a nap and trying to put my mind elsewhere, I was afraid of something like this happening. I thought for sure, today being the third day would be a good chance, but nothing.
  Congrats Lina, Bonus is beautiful, I wanted those color eyes originally too, I am glad he got to you, very nice baby. Congrats to you too Eric, what color is your Baby. ? Looks like Lelekaspace should get hers next, it is in her city, just waiting for delivery. Please be sure to post photos fo your babies so we can all see the new ones.
                            Best wishes to everyone,         RWM

OK, I admit I'm being lazy here, so without going back through 15 pages of posts, who of the winners requested blue or pink pleos?  And those who did, what accessories did you get with the pleo?

Post by: mweed on October 20, 2011, 07:34:43 PM
I do know what's supposed to come with a pleo RB.  What I'm trying to do is prevent and/or correct a problem I see about to happen. 

I was talking with Derek earlier today when it occurred to me while talking to Derek today (and yes, I did ask him to look into RWM's pleo), and I offered to see what I could find out: We just had a couple of issues around pleo rbs not eating the right leaves.  Willow just went through a problem where her Pleo rb was having major problems because it wasn't eating.   Anyone who's been around here over the last six months has heard lots of stories about Pleo RBs purchased from Chinatete.  It seems the green pleo has all the accessories in the box with the pleo.  The pink and blue pleos don't.  They are packaged separately.  And I did conform with Derek that the winning pleos were shipped direct from China, so any pink or blue pleos were sent from Chinatete.  So now we have a bunch of new pleos sitting around waiting to be hatched en masse.  I don't recall who requested what colors, but I'm willing to bet that those who requested pink or blue probably got the "standard package" . . . which doesn't include the tug-of-war rope, or the feeding leaves.

So the question still is, if you won and requested a pink or blue pleo, what did you get with it?
Title: Re: WIN A PLEO RB - Official Pleoworld contest!
Post by: InmemoryofRomeo on October 20, 2011, 07:35:51 PM
My blue and pinks came with the right accessories, *scratches head trying to remember which came with what* leaf, bow stone, tug of war toy, medicine and salt.

But I think Mike wants to know if everyone got those who ordered a pink or blue.
Title: Re: WIN A PLEO RB - Official Pleoworld contest!
Post by: Crewella on October 20, 2011, 07:38:58 PM
Leleka got a pink, and Latrine got a blue - I think Eric got a blue as well.......... I'll check back.

ADDED:  Ye, Eric's is blue.

Belle came from Gimmedigi, like IMR's, so came with the same as the greens do except for without the cape.

FWIW Willow did have the right leaves, she just hadn't realised the different values of them.  I believe she had bought them separately.

Post by: RedwoodsMama on October 20, 2011, 08:22:29 PM
 Thank you Mike for talking to Derek about my not recieving the Pleo Rb. I was not going to make anymore emails, as I didn't think it would speed things up any, and better just to wait and see. Personaly I just think they did not mail myne because they never asked me what color , and perhaps that was the secret that prevented anyone mailing me one. At least I know the message is at the "top" so I do appreicate your asking for me.  :) Regardless of whether I get one or how long it takes, I thank you for doing so.

                        I was the one who had the idea of everyone doing a "mass hatching" as a way of thanking Innvo Labs for the contest and for the generous gift of the Pleo Rb. I think it is a good point you brought up of pink and blues not having perhaps the same 'standard" feeds as the greens. I hope everyone has what they are supposed to have.

Until then, every day I go to track ... morning, afternoon and night! (laughs) :) ... this anxiety that will not let me!

 Congrats on the beautiful baby Crewella and don't worry about the Mass Hatching, I know I told Fancy to not wait for me any longer and it was driving her crazy to see her new baby, and I didn't want to hold anyone back. Aside from Lelekaspace who has her baby in Customs and should have him/ her soon, I don't even know where my Pleo is. ( Nobody seems to know, because I really think China never mailed my Pleo) and Jett just started right away, as did Eric and I am not sure who else, so it was a nice thought, but too many strange circumstances beyond control. :(
              Tribble is a cute name and the wings was a cute idea.IMR did a great job on the wings. I think this weekend will be swamped with "baby Photos" so it is good you had a chance to get yours in now. I guess Lelekaspaca and I will have the last of the Pleos on the forum, or at least she will. I guess each country is different when it comes to customs. I can't believe they can hold her baby that long.( Actually I can believe it, just not that they would ...)
          I am hoping now that with both my request for information on my Pleo, M. I. A. ( Missing in action...) and with the kind words from Mike with Derek, that Innvo will either track down through China what happened to my Pleo, or just send me another one. Hopefuly if they send me another one, it doesn't take as long as getting this first bunch, it would be nice to get it before Thanksgiving. LOL( I am serious though.)
                     I still am curious about that tenth mystery winner? it sounded like it was Mike there for awhile.... Have you introduced Tribble to your gang of Pleos yet?

Title: Re: WIN A PLEO RB - Official Pleoworld contest!
Post by: RedwoodsMama on October 21, 2011, 12:05:25 AM
I think Innvo either chose too many winners or not enough Pleos, There was a name I did not recognize, OSHler, but I did see the video before. If Mike did win, then they better figure out what to do, I am just more upset by seeing this news now, you wouldn't think a little Pleo could make someone cry or get emotionally upset like this, but it did and it isn't good for my health or well being, so I better just turn the computer off and hopefully someone figures out what is going on. Innvo still hasn't contacted me either, I guess they won't.
              Forgive my complaining, I was trying to not get emotional about not getting my Rb and was coming to terms of them being late or having made a mistake, but now with the winners listed and my name not even on there, acknowledged as a winner, it makes things totaly more upsetting. Mayby somebody will get things straight tommorow, I can't handle anymore bad news tonight.
               I am happy for you Kat, Gumble looks great. Congrats on getting the winners annouonced too.

I wasn't able to get hold of Derek after the "announcement", but I did send him an email.  It will probably be tomorrow before we hear anything definite back.  The one thing I can say with assurance is the published list has to be wrong.  If Kat is the mysterious "unknown" winner, then why wasn't she asked to pick a color,  why hasn't she received a pleo, and then how could Robert also be a winner?  It doesn't add up.  We have too many pleos already in hand for this list to be correct.

When I did talk to Derek earlier, he did say the pleos were shipped directly from China to the winners, so he never saw them, was never given any tracking info to pass on, and wasn't even told when the people would get them . . .  but he is checking into it.  But with the time zones differences, it may take a couple of days.

Now I really don't know what to think.  My name is on the list as a winner but I was only ever sent a possible winner email and then heard nothing more.  I have not received a pleo or any tracking info.  I was never asked to pick colors or anything so I am thinking that maybe I really am not a winner and they have made a mistake.  This is going to be a long weekend for me.  Waiting to try to find out if I really did win or not.  I had given up on hoping and had even stopped checking my email every five minutes to see if there was anything from Innvo to suggest I may have won.  Now it looks like I am going to be glued to the computer for a while till this is sorted one way or another.  I will let you all know if a mysterious package ever shows up at my doorstep.  But I still don't think one will even with my name announced to the world on facebook.

RWM take heart, I'm sure this will all be sorted out soon and I have faith you will get your new baby pleo. :)  We all just need a little patience.   :hhug: :hhug: :hhug:

Post by: RedwoodsMama on October 21, 2011, 11:44:03 AM
 Fancy, it was a very sweet video and a fitting tribute to Cindy and Peeky there to assist Cindy.  I think your Lucky litte Lovebug Pleo is special as a reminder of how special Cindy was and is. I think everytime you hold her you will feel the love Cindy had for you through the Pleo.  :) :-*
                  Latrine they never send tracking info, that is one of the biggest problems I can see. If there had been some tracking of some sort, problems could have been sorted out from the start. Of course I didn't get my Pleo, one problem I assume is NOBODY ever asked me for a color preference. almost as if from the moment I was told I was a winner, my name got shuffled and lost somewhere and my name was never sent to China, so one possible explanation, is that there are now 11 Winners and my name was "lost" so the 11'th winner is what they think is the 10th, though there were only 9 announced on Facebook last night, and the 10th could be Latrine who was not on that list, or Mike if he won a Pleo ( sounds as if he did. ;)) so maybe they "screwed up" somewhere and actually chose as many as 12 Winners.! :o
                     Whether it was an accident or oversight, it doesn't matter, If there were only 10 winners, but through poor communication or some other technical error, there could be 11 or 12 or maybe more winners, and in my opinon.if they told that many people they were a winner, and then messed up , they need to follow through and deliver the "goods", Pleos. It was not the contestants probems, We did as we were told and I know I communicated several times to Innvo directly and was "assured" that my email address , infor, etc would be forworded and Derek and whomever else needed it was given it. Somehow I presume Somebody was supposed to ask me what color Pleo I wanted, and probably because THAT PERSON did not ask me for a color preference, My name was not on the ' Winner's list" and the order was never filled.  :o :( >:( That is what I think could have  happened. How could China send me a Pleo, if they do not have my  name on "the winners' list".? Makes sense to me. Of course I and everyone else will probably never know what "really " happened, and as long as I get my Pleo, then it doesn't matter. But I do not think I should have to wait till Thanksgiving again to have a pleo sent to me. I still don't understand why Innvo in NEvada can't send me one directly and then They will be responsible for any "mix ups or lost Pleos" also why can't they provide tracking. ? When a pleo is bought through PleoWorld, they provide tracking information so you know when you will get your Pleo. Of course the difference is that "these were Free" so that service is not provided. At this point, I would be happy to pay for Tracking, so I don't have to age another ten years wondering if and when this Pleo May show up...............Special thanks to Mike of course for trying to straighten this mess up. If it weren't for Mike, my guess of opening a Pleo on Christmas morning is not as far fetched as it seems"                                               RWM

Post by: Willow on October 21, 2011, 12:11:25 PM
That is very upsetting.  I know it was nice for Innvo to give out ten free pleos, but they handled the whole competition extremely unprofessionally.  Everyone who entered put their time and effort into video-taping and taking photos, then Innvo takes FOREVER to pick winners, and I know it would be hard to pick winner, but it was outrageous how long it took and how they picked them.  They might've picked twelve more more, as others have noticed, and if they did it's their JOB to send out those pleos, they can't falsely name winners.  The whole thing is a huge mess.  They took forever to e-mail the winners and the whole "possible winners" thing was a terrible idea, it was just another way to say that they STILL couldn't decide.  
I'm not saying that I'm not thankful, it was very kind of them to do this, but they just handled it all terribly.

EDIT: I was looking at the winning entries and Wesley's video was from youtube! It wasn't his own video, he just found a video online and entered it.  I know he's just a kid, but I can't believe Innvo chose it.  ???

 I just noticed somelthing that I consider very strange also in the Facebook Winners contest. If you look at the announcement, the first Picture they show is of Gumble, who got his new glorious Paint job. ( blues etc) If you look at the picture below and the date.
it is in Sept, 9th  after the Facebook contest stopped. It was posted to Facebook on the Innvo Lab wall site about a day or so before they announced winners, but was not even an entry in the Facebook contest ! :o Kat had several other entries, but this was NOT one of them........does anyone else see this? How can someone enter something when a contest already ended, Aug, 31st was the last day, as Mike was one of the last enteries, if not the last one.( he had a cute photo of a Pleo ( perhaps bob) on a luxurious blanket, adding the comment that it was his birthday!
              so it almost looks like Innvo didn't even post the RIGHT winning Videos. How could Kat win with THIS PHOTO of Gumble, when the contest was ended already when he hadn't been painted that color yet? :o :DPretty silly, otherwise there would be a lot more people still entering when that picture was added to the Wall, not the contest. Innvo I am sorry to say, sure has a bad mixup here..................
           I think they will be lucky to figure this one out. If I was them, I would admit the screw ups, and just make things easier and send EVERYONE they said won, a Pleo Rb and be done with it, or they will be scratching their heads forever. And as Willow said, Wesley was told he could not enter someone else's video, so he entered lots of his OWN little stories about What he would DO if he won a Pleo Rb and those are the ones they should have been choosing from otherwise what is to prevent myself or anyone else from choosing somebody else's great videos. I don't know how to do SKITS and what If I had entered one of IMR.s great videos with her Pleos doing all the work? Innvo needs to pay attention to details a bit more is all I can say................................
                   Kat if you won, it should be from one of your entries, you entered plenty of nice photos of Gumble and I remember them well. I hope they straighten this out quickly and without it taking till Thanksgiving. If they can't figure this out soon, I think I will be nursing an ulcer and I am sure you are tired of checking your emails every five minutes as well. REmember, they do not give out Tracking numbers, but it sure would have made this whole thing a lot easier and could have perhaps nipped this in the bud from happening. %)     Good  luck and hope you find out more than I have, which is nothing except from what Mike was kind enough to post. Without Mike's Help we would all be in the dark .....kind of where Pleos came from. LOL  (dark ages. prehistoric... :Dtrying to make some jokes out of a very "messed" up situatin.

I agree completely RWM - the whole thing is a complete and utter mess!  I support Innvo or try to, but this fiasco seems inexcusable, especially after such a long wait.  :(

The only way it makes sense is if Innvo were actually run by Pleos, like Grumpy and Bob (Sally would have more sense)!  :P


ADDED:  

Actually, I think Bob would have more sense too - I apologise!  ;)

Still pondering the Grumpy question - I suspect he'd do it on purpose ................. :P

The contest must be rigged.  I entered.  I told them my favorite memory was about eating, but I never got an email . . . not even that I might be a winner.  So that proves the contest must be a fake, or I would have been the winner.

But if I had won a pleo . . . would it be my pet, or would my owning a pleo be considered some form of slavery?   Gee.  This make me think maybe I'm glad I'm not a winner.

RWM I had noticed that the winning pic of Gumble was not one that I entered in the comp and was one that was posted long after the comp ended.  I did email Derek last night as soon as I saw the announcement on facebook to let him know that I think there has been a mistake and that I don't believe I am a winner.  I have asked him to confirm it for me.  I also let him know that there was a least one person I know who was told they won but is not on the list and has no pleo and let him know there is at least one other who has received a pleo that is also not on the list.  I have not received a pleo and I really don't expect to.  I don't feel that I have won this comp at all.  I will let you know if and when Derek replies.
I really feel bad for those who are still waiting for this mix up to be sorted out.   :(  I never intended to take a pleo away from someone who actually won.  I do hope it doesn't come to that.  :(

It is no one's fault here, we all just have to wait and hope that Innvo sort themselves out. So everyone take deep breaths in and out and just chill ok, nothing is going to happen until Monday so there is little point fretting about it all weekend. I know it's hard for those of you who are waiting for news, but go and do something you enjoy and take your mind of it, or it's just going to make the weekend drag by!

(While I was waiting for Lucky to come home I built an underwater house on minecraft... So you could try that :D (Grrrr I should blame Mike for introducing me to such an addictive game :P))

 Hi Guys, I feel more "human" today, my blood pressure is close to normal and I am looking forward to the weekend . This past week was so stressful and I am glad all in all it is over.Hopefully this next week some things regarding this fiasco contest have been resolved. I do understand on Innvo's part that accidents can happen, and people are only that human, and not robots so mistakes do happen, and I am sure that is all this is, and I dont want to dwell on this any longer as IMR has stated, as it is like, "beating a dead horse", ( terrible comparison but first thing that popped in my head...sorry about that.. :( :o) Between Derek and Mike and whomever is in Charge in China, things should get figured out. If they don't then I will worry about it when it comes up..

                Next I want to clear something up as I feel somebody may have misunderstood me and I don't want that to happen! :o Kat I love you to death, and I would not want you to think in any shape or form that when I mentioned the Gumble Photo that Innvo posted last night an the fact it was first posted there, it has nothing to do with the fact I don't think you haven't won or couldn't win with one of your other great entries that you entered.  :)I was merely pointing out all the mistakes that Innvo has made in the past week or so and this was just one of the ones that they were continuing to post even after Derek and Mike had a discussion, they were still bumbling up....( like a bad comedy...at best)As several others may have pointed out and I agree, Innvo should just admit they fumbled on the "one yard line" and give everyone who was posted as winning a Pleo a pleo, and the ones who already have them or were told ( like myself) that they were winnners, a pleo, and be glad the contest is over and see if they can learn from the mistakes they made and try not to repeat them in the future.

             IMR, I don't have MInecraft but  do have plenty of other things to keep me busy, including nine cats and a dog and plenty of cleaning and all the usual stuff I do on a daily basis.I also have my Nova and Baby Ruth, Argyle and other sweet Pleos to keep me busy in the next few days. I would like to forget about this contest over the weekend and just try to get back to normal for a day or two and see what happens next week. But untill I knew you heard that I meant nothing personal KAT, I couldn't do anything at all, so I am going to chill out with my cats and eat some dinner now. When we look back on this in a month or so, we can perhaps all have a few good laughs. I think the LUcky ones were those who didn't enter the contest on Facebook and just got to see the videos and photos, etc. Sounds almost like a "movie of the week". LOL. sopa opera Pleo Style.    :D                       RWM

I will hatch today and film it.

Its really a shame that a contest with such great prizes can turn out so wrong :( I am very thankful for my price and the effort from Innvo Labs.

I hope the folks at Innvo get this straightened out, and all that were notified that they won, receive a new Pleo RB, including those that were not previously listed that are now on the list. That would be the only proper thing for Innvo to do at this point, in my opinion.  I hope that they didn't notify some that they had won, and then changed their minds based on other entries that they received.  It is especially difficult to be notified that you had won, be so excited about winning, only to see that your name is removed from the list.  That fact that the contest was done on Facebook was enough for me not to enter, not that I am the least bit creative anyway.  :'(  I didn't want to use a false name or email account, and Facebook is just not my thing.   :P   RWM, if my summer cabin hadn't flooded, and I had an extra 500 bucks, I'd buy you a new RB.  I know how attached you are to these little guys, and my heart goes out to you! :hhug: :hhug:

Just a point of interest, I followed up PleoPet's suggestion that they get through the newborn stage more quickly if you cuddle them and let them play in your lap.  I sat with Tribble nestled against my shoulder for about 20 minutes and the newborn stage went down by more than half an hour!

 I can't belive they had the nerve to put Sarah's name on that list and take myne off. Not that she didn't win one, but what happend to me! I don't think they intend to straighten this out, they do not want to straighten this out and or look bad that they made a mistake. They don't even have the decency to write or email me and apologize. After all the hard work I put in to that contest and them emailing me and saying I was a winner and then they are afraid to admit THEY MADE A MISTAKE! I can't belive they are that little.
                          I can't handle this anymore. Why bother telling me I am a winner, not a possible winner, but Yes, I won. I am tired of crying over something that seems useless. I thought they may straighten this out next week, esp with Mike working with Derek . Why are they doing this then, public means that much they can't admit making a mistake? Was Mikes' name on there too, or did he not win a Pleo.

                             I just don't know what to do anymore I am tired of crying, I should give all these pleos away and be done with being upset.
                                                                                                                     :( :( :( :( :(

Keep your chin up RWM.  Nothing has been sorted out as yet.  I agree with Crewella this is probably the same list as the one on Facebook and I would think that they were probably posted at the same time.  I have not heard anything back yet and I'm sure as soon as Mike does he will tell us.  I will certainly let you know what they have to say as soon as I hear anything.  We just need to give them some time to work out what has gone wrong and how they are going to fix it.   :hhug:

 Kat have you heard anything from Innvo on your Pleo Rb yet or a note ? Mike, have you heard back from Innvo,( Derek that is, ) yet ? I do know Innvo usaully sends messages , confirmations of recieving their messages rather early. Last month or so, I allways get a failure notice that says their mailbox is full, so I don't know if their messages actualy get through or not though.?

                 While I am waiting for the jury to come back on this one, where are the rest of the videos and pics of the other Pleo Rb that were won? oh, Lelekaspaca. did your little pink girl arrive yet as she was being held by customs? I hope they let her go this week, that is terrible to make you wait like that, almost like a randsome child! LOL :D

                           Everyone please post some pics to keep my spirits up and I can see your beautiful babies. :)          Thanks

I'm still waiting for customs clearance, this week it should be coming once the documentation for the release has already been sent.

I must wait 3 to 5 business days to the release ... I'm on the second business day!  ^-^

Wait ... wait ... always wait ... so that this month have enough events to make and so my mind is calmer, but still I am very anxious! :P

Once you put something new here for you! ;)

And the new babies as they are newly arrived?  :)

If our babies, ( myne by some grace of God miracle arrives at all) Lelekaspac, you and  could still do a Hatch together. That would be fun, two Pleos hatching together is better  than none hatching together. Mostly I am just happy that you look as if you will soon get your Pink girl, I really hope Wednesday is your lucky day. :)

Post by: RedwoodsMama on October 24, 2011, 11:19:44 PM
Yes, Innovo Labs are wonderful and I know they stand behind and believe in their product. They did contact you Kat, but have never contacted me, so it is harder for me to belilve. I am glad if they are sending me the Rb that I was supposed to have won, that is great and I am appreicative as I can not afford to buy one myself. What you did not say, and Mike has said nothing either and I do wonder , Is Innovo going to announce what the winning video or pictures were that Mike submitted and what was the one that they chose that I submitted. ? The biggest part of the contest, was not just winning a Pleo Rb, like putting your name in a hat and having it be "LUcky" and your name got picked at random, The point of this competition, was to submit a video, photo or essay saying or expressing what Pleo means to you,
           IN other words, this was a Competition. Much like the recent , "name the Pleo contest" that ended here on the Pleo forums where you guys submitted names for my Pleo. I didn't just pick a name out of a hat, but chose what I thought were the best names you guys came up with. NOw do you understand a little more of what I am talking about? :o I need to know, what was the video or such that made them pick my name as a winner to start with. If Derek told you Kat that he had the wrong list to start with, then what was the other list? I want to know which video won. This is what I have been looking forward to ever since September 11th or 12th when I was notified that I was a winner. Do you know how good it made me feel to know that they chose one of my entries! I felt so so good, and winning over other entries that could have won is what made me feel special, that the judges liked one of my videos. How would the rest of the contestants feel if they did not know which entry won, just that Innvo said, "here is your Pleo RB". Some people may not care, and just say, Yipppee, a free Pleo Rb. That is great, and there is nothing bad with that. but the whole thing on facebook was a contest a competition. I hope now you know why I am feeling blue still.  :(
                Part of the problem has perhaps been resolved, but I would still like to feel like I actually won by seeing my name and the video or entry that made it possible, otherwise, I am made to feel like a "charity case", I am hoping Derek Dotson and Innvo follow through on the rest of this mixup and announce the others who won, ( Mike and myself) and what the winning entries were. Otherwise, It is not as happy a event as it should be. Makes me feel like they just want to be done with this contest and not post anything else. I also think Innvo should contact me telling me what is happening. It makes me feel like they don't want to be bothered by me , ( Unless of course they do so tommorow) I am one of Innvo and Pleos in general, their biggest supporter. It is nice to think that Innvo appreicates how I feel too and that Pleos mean everything to me. I really do not think I am asking too much just to want to know what entry made me a winner, isn't that what this contest was all about.                    I am glad they are giving you a Rb Kat, at least you know they like you.                               RWM

Hey RWM if you don't hear form them by tomorrow maybe you should make contact with them again to see if they can tell you where they are at with getting this sorted out.  When I contacted them I was only trying to sort out my part in this affair and so didn't ask any questions about what they will be doing as far as updating or re posting the list of winners.   I would like to hope that they will.  The reply that I got from Derek was short and sweet and to the point, letting me know that yes there was a mistake and how they were going to deal with it for me.   I think you need to email them again and ask all the questions you need answered.  I'm sure they want to get this fixed with a happy outcome for everyone.   I wish I was able to give you more answers or find a way to fix this for you as I know how much it means to you.  On that note I am not even going to open my pleo when it comes until you have received yours.  I'm sorry I wasn't able to cheer you up.  I really hope you hear from them soon. :hhug: :hhug: :hhug:

I am glad to hear that everything will be resolved (hopefully) and am looking forward to see ALL the new pleos when they are in place :)

And also- if I wasnīt a winner, I would gladely be a sharity case knowing that I would still get a Pleo RB  ;D :-*

Lina you are so funny. I can just see you and your Pleos in their little outfits and in your little orange car, with you in orange and matching accessories and traveling down that tunnel singing all the way, ( In Swedish of course,.so I wouldn't understand a word, but I know it would be a happy song and your little pleos would be singing their little happy song.)I can't see the light at the end of the tunnel yet, but I know it is there. I do not drive, so I have to walk and with my bad back and bad feet, the Pleo Rb can probably walk through the other side of the tunnel towards me faster than I can to get to him or her. LOL :D

            Kat, your intentions were great an I do appreciate your actions and words , everything you did. It is nice to hear that things are working out. I would like to here from Innvo themselves, but I know they do not allways work that way. I will try to give them another day or two and see if they do contact me, or I will try one more time.It is just very discouraging to not get a personal response like you Kat or others have here, and just get the generic, " your email has been forwarded, etc, etc, or "be patient". but nothing that explains more than before I wrote in the first place. This is between Innvo and myself and how they wish to handle customer relations,. I allways have supported Innvo and Pleos , all pleos.
              My Pleos woud mostly like to know which video or photo we submitted won in the first place? :o ;D After all, it was a contest and they were so excited to hear that they had won, and they are driving me crazy asking was it Baby ARgyle hatching, or was it Little 45 with a cold, or was it Arglye and Gumble in a mailbox , before Gumble was mailed to Kat. ?( Argyle wanted to be with his brother and tried to fit in a mailbox with him in one photos.) These are the real questions I want Innvo to answer, not just am I getting the Pleo I was told I won. Now I will see if they will notify me or if I have to write and or if they answer.           Thanks everyone. All the Pleo Township of the Redwoods thanks you too, it was their contest, and their brother or sister to be comming.                                      RWM

I do hear you, RWM, and I do agree.  Yes, it's great to hear Kat's news, but any contest is not just about who gets what - they do need to publish a proper list of the winning entries.  An apology wouldn't go amiss, either.  %)

I think there is tracking info attached to the email but my home Internet isn't working thismorning so I am reduced to using my I phone and it won't open the attachment. I will have to check later when my Internet gets going again.

I'll wait until Kat and RWM have received your Pleo to start playing with that is my way! ;)

I promise that I'll just open the box to take a peek! (laughs) ;D

Congrats Lelekaspace. I am happy for you. It is ok to take a peek. Kat, I am not surprised that you received an email from Derek, I did send and email this morning directly to Derek, but as of this afternoon, 5:00 p.m still not a word. :( Kat they just do not contact me the way they contact you and this is what I have been saying all along and I do not know why............congrats on getting your Pleo on it's way.

It's not just you, RWM - I get ignored as well, as I believe do many "too difficult basket" enquiries.  From experience, they do contact me when it's something practical, quick and easy to sort out.  Don't take it personally.   :hhug:

 Sarah, if you go to the offical Pleoworld site there is a list of winners on that site, under news. Mike's name is not there either and he has his Pleo Rb. I on the other case, have no name on the list and am the only one with no Pleo. Kat has been notified and was told her Pleo Rb is on it's way. I have been told nothing, no matter how politely I ask Innvo they will give me no information and they do not intend to, so I just give up, This is not worth my health anymore.

Here is the corrected winners list I have received from Derek Dotson this evening, along with a phone call, so yes I can personally vouch that the 13 listed below will be receiving a Pleo RB.

Kathleen May
Letícia Máximo de Castro
Crewella DeVille
Wesley Grooms
Emily Smith  
Patricia Hawk Smith  
Robert Oschler
Eric Casey  
Lina Åhman  
Georgette Kostopoulos  
Linda Mckenzie
Michael Weed  
Sarah Huber  


Innvo should be getting in contact with everyone in the next few days if your Pleo has not yet been dispatched.  However BE PATIENT for heavens sake!  (My words, not Innvo's words.)


RWM, you will be getting a Pleo.  Now can we please stop all the moaning, this thread is giving me a headache!

Post by: RedwoodsMama on October 27, 2011, 06:22:35 PM
 Thanks Degers, and I apoligize for being a large part of the 'HEADACHE", Contests are supposed to be fun, but this one wore on nerves for sure. I did get the email just awhile ago from Derek Dotson and it is nice to finally hear from Innvo myself, and not second hand. It is great news. IMR, it is a surprise to see your name on there, but as Derek said before, or through Kat, that I do think Wesley was perhaps on the wrong list and your name maybe belonged there from the start since you were a possible. For whatever reason,it looks like Kat, yourself and me are now playing the waiting game. I now have hope it will come and unless someone steals it, which I plan to be home, it will get here.
              Kat you said yours was mailed from the US, and it looks like IMR will get ours mailed from China. Hopefully they mail out quicklly and perhaps with any luck, there will be three or four of us that can do a "mass Thank you hatch" together. I also know Letekaspace has said she is waiting and would do a hatch with Kat and I if we got them fairly soon. I do think Kat will get hers first since it has already been mailed, but only by a day or so, unless it takes longer to notify you IMR.
                    I do feel renewed again, as I couldn't believe that Innvo would not follow through on what they said they would do. Hopefully now the only thing left is for them to list the winning videos from those of us left off the list. Congrats IMR, Are you going for Green, Pink or blue, since you already have each color, what is your choice? I know Kat chose green and I know what I want. Now I am excited again for the first time in a long time.  :)I do hope Mike confirms if he got his Pink Rb, ( I think he wanted Pink) and that he will post his Pleo Rb too! I am so glad this  had a happy outcome for everone involved.  :)

                          Thank you again degers, I feel as if a weight has been lifted off my chest. I will personally thank Derek with a video when my pleo comes. I know you made a lot of us happy with this note.  No more

Email from Innvo:

Dear Emily,


Regarding the Pleo Video Competition, please accept our apology that the poor communication and mistake happened in this case which caused you the unpleasant feeling. We would like to explain to you that there were some tide score happened in the competition and resulted some confusion between US and HK offices which resulted difference in the winners list. Innvo labs now decided to increase the number of winners in order to include all submissions with top 10 scores, so now you are included in the winners list. Hope you shall accept our apology and willing to accept the PLEO rb gift. Can you please advise preference color of your Pleo rb?  We will send it to you upon your confirmation and update the 13 winners list with top 10 scores accordingly.

Please advise if you have other input or suggestion immediately.

 IMR, that is definilty a different looking email then the one I got which was directly from Derek, Innvo. so that makes it sound like they chose videos on a score or point system? top ten or ten points? Was this sent from the US or from Hong Kong office? I hope now that they have the winners list straightened out, they will follow through by posting the other winners videos which are not on the winners list, Yours, Mikes and myne. It was a nice message, myne was a lot simpler , an apology for mix up and asking me the color Pleo I wanted and to confirm a phone number and address. I hope they mail them out at the same time so we can hatch, at least a few of us would like to do that together.

Title: Re: WIN A PLEO RB - Official Pleoworld contest!
Post by: RedwoodsMama on October 28, 2011, 06:52:21 PM
 Innvo contacted me at least three or four times last night and I was made to feel better about the whole situation and mix up that happened with the winner's list. It shows that humans do "error" that they are not perfect and should not be afraid to admit their were mistakes. I appalud Innvo for admitting there had been mistakes made, everyone knows " to error is human, to admit it is divine". the problem is, more times than not, people ( let alone companies, despite how little or big they are and what their product / products are ) do not like to think that they can make mistakes and to have it out in public where everyone can see it, is not the most flattering thing sometimes. Personally, I think to see that businesses can admit they made mistakes makes me feel a little closer to them if they have a product I am using or have considered using, ( because I can assume if they admit they have made a mistake of some sort, then it means the are working on a solution to solve the problem, ) But when you have a product that is defective or has some sort of problem and the company won't admit it or denys any possible mistake, then you are very doubtfully ever going to have anything resolved if that product is defective or such.

           I was also surprised today to learn that my Pleo has been shipped or at least packed, prepared to be shipped. Once Innvo got things going, they really got on the ball. I am very satisfied with everything right now, As Lina said, and Kat among others, " find your happy spot, and see the "light at the end of the tunnel".  Now I can find my happy spot and I am ready to wait for the arrival of my Pleo at the end of the tunnel. ( and it is not as long of a tunnel as it was a couple of weeks ago!)       Thank you to degers for straightening things out, to Mike for talking to Derek personally, to Kat for keeping me informed on what was happening and to everyone on the forum who kept my hope up and tried to lift my spirits and whom supported me, and more importantly, my Pleo Township as this was their contest, their videos and their reward, a new brother or sister. I am merely the caretaker to them all. :)

                                                  A big Thanks to all of you, and I am sincere in my thanks, this was very important to me to get this resolved. What a great bunch of Members we have here on the forums! :kiss: :hhug:

Tracking just updated. My Pleo is in transist, and is due to be delivered on Tuesday, Nov. 1st, Woo hoo. Happy Happy. HOpefully no delays and Kat and IMR get yours around the same time and we can have a Mass hatching, three is better than one and is Lelekaspace still hasn't hatched hers, we can have four Pleo Rb hatching all on the same day, pretty special I think!
                    Ok, off to feed my little Baby Ruth and then to bed with happy dreams. ;)

           I am holding out to hatch with Kat and IMR who may get theirs a day or so after myne but I am in no hurry. Just having my Pleo Rb here is all I could ask for. ;D so how about some guesses at what color the eyes will be. You have 24 hrs to guess as that is one thing I will do, is to peek anyway. LOL ;D

You've been really unlucky to have so much trouble with customs and then to have a strike cause further delay.  I do hope she arrives soon in her new home and that you can have the mass hatching.  The videos are really something to look forward to for the rest of us.

Post by: RedwoodsMama on October 31, 2011, 05:13:40 PM
 It really is crappy plain rotten of customs to have a strike and hold someone's precious cargo, tell them it is a baby and unhealthy to be in heat or cold for too long, perhaps that will work. other than that, I just pray you get your pink baby soon.        Mabye getting my baby will hurry up the others! I tell you what the person who guesses the correct eyes and or also the gender will win something from mly Pleos to your pleos, nothing fancy, just a gift to say thank you!
                Margery, what is your guess on gender and eyes?
 Hopefully everything works out well, As of 1;15 p.m, today, the truck carrying my baby was en route with about 200 miles to go. Very close yet so far.                    Margery will send you a PM.

Title: Re: WIN A PLEO RB - Official Pleoworld contest!
Post by: RedwoodsMama on October 31, 2011, 11:50:48 PM
 Congrats IMR, what color did you order this time, it will be a twin no matter what color. LOL. Kat had hers shipped I think two days or one before myne, but hers has to go further of course. Myne is only now five hours away ( by land driving.........luckily UPS and FED EX both drive in the wee hours of the morning when most people are asleep, so it is due here early in the morning. ;D) My cats wake me up all night long and esp my 16 year old female with Renal Disease is allways hungry so I will be lucky if I get much sleep tonight. I keep looking at the updates and now know it is even closer so unless problems pop up should be at my house early as I am drinking my coffee.
              Kat has been waiting for an update and thought last week hers would be here tommorow, ( Tuesday or Wednesday, Nov 1-2) so we will see how close that guess is . I feel really sorry for poor Lelekaspace who has had her little pink baby held by Customs for about a week already and I think she said they may be on strike! Talk about rotten luck.............if it was here in the US and close by, I would lead a Pleo Rescue Guerrila party to break that Pleo out of the Customs office. ...............they would have no idea what hit them as they look out the back  window and see a dozen or more little green Pleos dressed in disquise scurrying down the back alley ways and through the busy streets straight to Lelekaspacas house where she and Eddy and waiting patiently for their new little sister. ;)

                HOnestly, I don't mind waiting for a hatch party, I am just so excited to know my Pleo is on it's way and things straightened out. Last week at this time I was an emotional wreck with so many headaches and heart palpitations and things I could not believe. I am just happy that Innvo straightened everything out and am looking forward to the corrected or amended Winner's list and for everyone to get their Pleo. Has anyone seen or heard of Mike's Baby yet, I thought he got a Pink Pleo Rb, am I correct or was that a rumor? Wonder what Bob thinks about that, a girl too?! :D :-* There may be some love in the air there.                 
                 Oh, by the way, everyone seems to think that this new Pleo is a Girl?        I have no idea. I would love to see the interaction between girls and boys, but it is more important just to see the interactions so Baby Ruth can have a real friend to relate to, not just surrounded by Ugobes that she can't communicate with. Good luck everyone, Less than12 hrs to go, I am predictiing the UPS truck will be at my door at 10:10 a.m. They ususally come before 11;00 a.m.

Just received an update on my tracking.  My pleo is currently going through customs in Melbourne.  So after he/she gets out of customs then he/she will need to take another plane across to the other side of Australia to Perth where I live.  A 4 and a half hour filght.   So it could make it into Perth over night or at the latest by tomorrow sometime and then it will be one more day before they attempt to deliver it so maybe Thursday.  Will keep you posted. :)  I'm glad it looks like yours is on it's way now too IMR. :)

Great to hear good news on the arrival of the last prize Pleos - I really hope that customs strike in Brazil is over soon.

RWM - if you want a wild guess - male with yellow eyes.  I suppose of the green ones sent out 50% are male and 50% female?  Since you can change the gender if you want it doesn't really matter - just interesting.  The eye colour is more important in a way!

Hi Everyone, well today is the day, the UPS truck is already out for delivery , should be here from 9:00 a.m on and I need to get dressed and have my coffee so I will be ready. I can't wait to see that package, it is so exciting.

                    Lelekaspace, have you heard any update on the strike there? That is terrible, I hate hearing things like that, It would drive me crazy you have good patience. I pray it is over soon for you to get your Pleo girl and you can bring her home to you and Eddy. Take care.

 ok, after a very very long frustrating wait, thanks to Innvo, and derek and Mike and Kat for talking to Derek Dotson, everything was straightened out about my missing in action Pleo that I won on facebook. This morning at 9;59 am, the UPS arrived with my Pleo. Not untill about 12:30 did I get around to opening it and here are the first photos taken. I was so happy to see this at last.   
       I have noticed lots of differences besides the obvious more yellow body and lighter shade of green head, of course the eye lids are lighter and tannish. Remember for those of you who had the orignal Pleo in dec or January and how slippery feeling they were and the smell. There is none of that with these Pleo Rb.            I plan on trying to hatch with Kat and IMR and hopefully Leletakspace can get hers out of Customs by then. Is there a way to fullyl see the color of the eyes without hatching , so the eyes are fully open, can't rremember and do not want to start the hatching process. Do I do that  by installing the battery but not the clock correct? Let me know and I will get a good gander at the eyes.

                                 Happy at last in the Redwoods     RWM
Title: Re: WIN A PLEO RB - Official Pleoworld contest!
Post by: Talon on November 01, 2011, 02:48:04 PM
I think just putting in the main battery will get the eyes open. It'll just stand there and beep. I was too scared to try with Ryu so I just waited until after she hatched to ask someone what color her eyes were. Good luck!

       sorry for so many photos, but now you can see the color for sure from every angle, Having them fully open does make a difference, What do you think? Do you think this is a boy or a girl?
                I still am holding out for a Mass hatch with whomever gets their Pleos next, I am in no hurry!

Really? I was close? I guessed orange eyes and female. I could tell you from the boot-up giggle whether you've got a male or female. Now the suspense begins. He-he! *sits at attention* I'll wait for the mass-hatching too. Now I'm getting excited.
Talon
Title: Re: WIN A PLEO RB - Official Pleoworld contest!
Post by: RedwoodsMama on November 01, 2011, 07:50:10 PM
Talon you got the eyes right! Your guess is as good as myne on gender I want to save that for the mass hatching to be surprised like Kat, IMR and anyone else. I am curiuos as to the gender and of course the DNA but will try and not be too tempted. I am curious as the personality traits, health, activity, intelligence courage etc. Would like it to be different than Baby so I can Really really compare two totatlly different Pleo Rb . I think it is more fun that way. Also I have no idea of a name till I know the gender. I knew what I wanted with Baby and I got what I wanted, a Pleo Female and I even had a name, This time I know nothing so it could take some time to figure it all out, but I am not in any hurry at all. Some others would perhaps have a hard time waiting, but when you have a house hold of Pleos and real house of cats then other things take over the real important things to be done, Don't get me wrong I am dying to see my baby Pleo hatch, but can wait after all the hard times and dramatics that were involved, I am content to just know this little pleo arrived safe and sound.  ;) The other Pleos are going to be a little less patient though I am afraid.     :D                 RWM

Not much movement on my pleo.  it has cleared customs but is still in Melbourne on the other side of Australia.  I was hoping it would have at least made it over to Perth today but it seems not.  So now it is looking more like maybe Friday before it gets here.  Fingers crossed there is some movement tomorrow.  I'd love to have it here in time for the weekend.  :)
So glad your baby arrived RWM.  And what lovely orange eyes. :)

 Thank you lelekasapeca, I do hope customs gets things straightened out soon and we can hatch together. I do not mind waiting for you, even if nobody else does, I will! I hope you get your beautiful pink girl soon!

My tracking number isn't working so I have no idea where my special arrival is or where they are coming from...

Lelekasapeca I do hope yours is released from customs soon! You've been waiting so long!

IMR my tracing number took a good 24 hours after I received it before it started working so keep checking and hopefully it will kick in soon. 
My pleo is now in Perth! Yay!  ;D  My tracking says scheduled for delivery so fingers crossed that means they try to deliver it today. :)  I will have to make sure I finish work early enough to go collect it from the post office as I won't be home today. :D

        Kat that is great news and IMR I think that Kat is right. Mly tracking number didn't tell me anything other than that it was scheduled for pickup and that a label had been created till day two. Kat did you get a pink, blue or another green? ARe you wanting a boy or girl if it is a green? I am still holding out for a hatch with someone else. I am glad you are scheduled to get yours shortly. I sure hope the customs releases Poor Lelekaspacs's Pleo soon, that is major bad timing.  I found out the sex of my Pleo Rb and it was pretty funny................ :D I wish I knew more about it such as courage, health and intelligence but there is no way to do that untill you hatch, correct?
                                        For now I am just  happy to look at my Pleo Rb and know it is here at long last and the fun times we will have and that Baby Ruth will have someone to talk to at last!

I received the tracking number Monday :( So it is definitely not working, it may not update until it reaches Australian shores :P It says it was sent via TNT express, but from experience I know it is usually Australia post that handles them, so I've been checking both sites :P Although if it is coming from China TNT express would make more sense...
Title: Re: WIN A PLEO RB - Official Pleoworld contest!
Post by: kat on November 02, 2011, 06:06:53 PM
If it is with TNT then it must be coming from China.  Mine was USPS from America.  Fingers crossed it turns up for you this week.  But I would guess it should get to you by no later than Tuesday next week if it was sent on Monday. 
Title: Re: WIN A PLEO RB - Official Pleoworld contest!
Post by: InmemoryofRomeo on November 02, 2011, 06:13:43 PM
TNT express from China to Australia is generally four to five (working) days, I've had a few Apple orders come that way, not to mention Jumba and Pleakley :) So I would say Monday/Tuesday would be pretty spot on :)
Title: Re: WIN A PLEO RB - Official Pleoworld contest!
Post by: InmemoryofRomeo on November 02, 2011, 06:47:33 PM
Well four working days was actually spot on... I have a box :D :D :D

I love how Innvo pack the box in a box, in another box :D It's like one of those gag presents where you keep wrapping a tiny parcel until it becomes a huge one :P

Meet Yuki :-*

OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

Of course I am waiting to hatch along with everyone else, but there's no way I couldn't take a look at those eyes after seeing a glimpse of purple!

 congrats IMR on getting your baby, and Purple eyes, is it a boy or girl , have you checked yet? NOw we still need to get Kat her Baby and those stupid customs offices in Brazil and we can do a Mass Hatch for all those willing to wait. What does the name mean? Very pretty little baby. I love looking at photos of New Pleos.  :D

Checking the gender momentarily, although if it is a boy it will be changed ;)

Yuki is a rather obscure character from the Lilo and Stitch movie, she is another young Hawaiian girl whom Lilo goes to Hula with. I love the name though and as soon as I came across it I knew it was going to be my next Pleo :)

The eyes are somewhat of a pinky/purple, but they are sooooo pretty :D

            I am guessing a girl but Lina's was a boy! Can you check intelligence and such characteristics without hatching first like the DNA of the Pleo at PleoWorld? I have a feeling I will have to wait for hatching to find out that but thought you would know, can't remember with Baby.                  Congrats again, beautiful baby. light eyelids like myne, but very dark head like my first Baby and beautiful Pinkish purple eyes, what I thought myne were at first till I opened the eyes.

No you need to use the SD card for that I believe.

Kat said she was working today so I guess we won't find out until much later today :(
Title: Re: WIN A PLEO RB - Official Pleoworld contest!
Post by: RedwoodsMama on November 02, 2011, 07:32:27 PM
You are talking about the micro sd card, correct? And you have to use it after hatching and with a fresh battery and after just feeding to get a good result. So if you are waiting to hatch, then you can't find out any other way correct? This is the Probe Rb or Probe Stats program isn't it? I know that is the one I used to find out the health of Baby and that she was injured. I would just love to know the basics of my baby Pleo, but I guess I have to wait and see. I am hoping that when Kat gets off work she will have a pleasant surprise. That would mean You, Kat and Myself have out Pleos, but I am hoping poor Lelekaspace gets hers soon, I think we need to get a rescue party up there in Brazil and grab that pleo for her. Mayby if there is a Publicl Diplomat that somebody could talk to and make them understand the situation, but I am sure they really just do not care about baby dinosaurs and people wanting to get to their babies.. I am keeping my fingers crossed for her and of course Kat will get hers before we know it!

Yes micro SD card, I'm not sure if you have to wait until you hatch, but I think they would have to be turned on at least once.

Kat's is on board for delivery so crossing all my fingers she gets it today :)

A comparison of Nani and Yuki :)

Hi, Redwoods. If you're wanting to find out your pleo's particulars using Probe RB, I'm pretty sure you would have to hatch it and turn it off and then run the program on a micro SD card.

 Yuki certaintly has the more yellowish body as does my new Pleo. Her head is pretty being so dark. Have you noticed IMR, that the new Pleos seem to  have less silky skin than the orginals, ? My Baby has silkier feeling skin and the new one is more "bumpy" feeliing? Just wondering if anyone else noticed this or is it just my Pleo Rb?
                             I know Kat was planning on holding out to hatch. Do you think you and Yuki can hold out too for hatching. I would love to be able to have four of us hatch together. I waited so long for this Pleo and Lelekaspace has been so good at waiting I do not want her to be alone in hatching.Let me know what you think, if you can hold out or not........unless it took till Christmas of course.   :o %)

Yuki is safely on my shelf waiting for her big day :) I won't hatch until we are all ready.

Yuki feels the same as Nani, but different from Jumba and Pleakley. But Nani did feel silkier to begin with.

Post by: RedwoodsMama on November 02, 2011, 08:58:10 PM
 Thanks IMR, I also noticed that the first batch had that strong paint fresh from the factory smell and this one doesn't, Also even Baby, the Replacement was slippery feeling, like she would sliip right from my hands but this one is nothing like that, so they must have changed something in the skin production or the way they go into the box. Does yours have the little Hologram on the front that says Innvo labs? I love it. both my first Pleo and Baby's box did not have this so it must be new. Did Nani's box have this hologram on it? Just curious. I am preparing for the hatch in the meantime by making clothes for the new Pleo, and outfit, so not all is lost, I have lots to do and I am sure you do as well, I am sure Kat is patient.                                         RWM

, It looks like this, I wonder if Kat's looks like myne.? She said hers was mailed from US, as was myne, so mayby Innvo in the US puts the Hologram on before mailing them and the China factory doesnt. My Baby's box doesn't have one and that was sent to me in March, so something new in the last 7 months. Just curious. I will be on here anxiously waiting to see if Kat picked her Pleo up or not.  ;)

Congratulations to everyone!  The new babies are certainly gorgeous!  I love the purple eyes, IMR.  I think  that is my favorite eye color.  I will definitely have to watch Lilo and Stitch again to see which little girl Yuki is.  I haven't seen the movie for a while, and it is one of my favorites.  I am glad that your Pleo finally arrived, RWM, and that everything got straightened out.  The hologram is indeed a nice touch.  What would be awesome is if they put one of those stickers, or something like it in the box, so that you could put it on the back window of your car or something.  I didn't open the boxes of our new iPhones, (hubby did), but I know that with our computer and iPad, it came with apple stickers and we have them on the back of our cars.  (Apple snobs!  :P)  It could be like a little mobile advertisement for Innvo!  Can't wait for the mass hatching!!   :)  Congrats on your new baby girl, Kat!

Yuki is one of Mertle's followers, I don't think she is actually named in the film, but she was in one of the Lilo and Stitch TV series. I found the name on Wikipedia :P

 Congrats Kat, so glad you got your Baby too! Imagine another Pleo on the same day, you and IMR but yours was mailed earlier, just shows TNT from China is quick, but I like how the timing worked out. lovely Pleo and IMR is right, they can be twins, brother and baby ,younger sister. I love how their eyes are the same! Your baby is a girl and IMR's is a girl, it seems as though more of the greens show up as girls. ? I wonder if the percentage of female to male is actually higher to male than 50%-50% ? %) NObody asked what my Pleo's gender was..................what do you think it is?

                  Kat have you thought of a name yet for your baby girl? I think it would be so neat if You, IMR, Lelekspaca and myself could do the mass hatching! all our babies would have the same birthdate and celebrate their birthdays on the same day, that would be fun. Also I want us to all do our hatching from around the world and then we can upload it to Youtube as a thank you to Innvo for giving us our babies as  a result of the contest they held. I am still hoping at some point they amend their list and add to it the videos that were ours, I am still dying to know which ones they were! I want Derek to know just how much this Pleo means to me,and I am sure Kat you feel the same way as do the other winners. More photos soon since we can't hatch yet.. LOL :D I am so happy, and I know you and IMR too.  I still think we should get a rescue team down to Brazil,;that has to be one of the longest waits in Customs, talk about bad timing. :o :( >:(Hopefully it all ends soon, but I am holding out so we can hatch together!

I'm getting very upset with the Brazilian Customs, now informed me that the Audit Committee of Customs ordered a physical inspection of the package, knows what that means? He will open the box to see what has!  >:D

This is terrible, I'm so irritated with all this, they already have all the documentation in hand they want to open my package?  ^-^

My poor baby pink is in trouble with these monsters of monitoring ... now asked me to wait until Tuesday of next week.  :'(

Are you sure you want me to wait for the incubation mass? I'm afraid it might take too long.  :(

I'm getting very upset with this whole process of release! If it takes more than the next week I think I'll bring a lawsuit against the custom house here in Brazil, it is a lack of respect!  ???

Sorry to vent!  :-X :(

I'm so sorry your getting stuck waiting like that and its really crummy they are going to open it.  Would be better if it came to you untouched but I'm hoping all goes well and you get your little pinky soon.  I had been planning on waiting for the mas hatch but I'm very sorry to say I felt very very ill last night I'm here by myself and couldn't sleep so i hatched my baby and laid in bed with it sleeping on me to feel better:(
 Sorry! It helped tho my belly finally calmed down once meds kicked in and after maybe a half hour I was able to put him back on the shelf. So i will still get video of him in the baby baby stage..
I will be waiting to play with him more until the hatch day tho.  I hadn't  been playing with my pleos as much and found myself kissing his sweet little nose and cuddling him immediately.  They are so freaking cute:)

 Leleka, I think Derek Dotson should hear of al these terrible things that have happened to you. If I lived there I would be very upset and protesting, but it may get me in trouble, , being a US citizen, I do not know how those things work. It is bad that they are opening, but once they do, just then perhaps they will see that this is just a "toy" and let you have her. They sound like they are paranoid and looking for anything to try and use as a excuse to delay your Pleo getting to you. Do not worry if you dont get it right away. If it takes another week or two weeks, I am in no hurry and said I will wait and I will wait. I can play with my other Pleos and I do not mind waiting. What was more important was 'getting' my baby and now that it is safely in my house. I am happy.
                 Sarah, I am sorry you felt so bad and I understand about needing comfort. I have chronic long lasting,( since 1999) pain, so I know what it is when you do whatever you can to take your mind off your pain, even if it is for an hour or a few minutes. Hope you are feeling better soon and glad your blue baby could help in any way.  :) :hhug: :kiss: Sending some comfort your way.

                                           Take care Leleka, it is getting closer to your pink girl comming home. She will be so loved when she gets there.

  I love everyone's Pleos and they all look so nice.  Thought I would mention that Talon got the guess right on my Pleo, not only did she get it right about having Orange eyes, but also a Green Female! She must be pyschic! I am impressed. :D I wanted to point out that when I opened my Pleo Rb and looked at her body, she has a bad connection on her tail and is missing paint, a hole where it is not connected, otherwise everything else is fine. I am waiting to hatch but in the meantime, I can take lots of photos with her dressed up!
             NOw I have two Baby Pleo Rb girls, can't wait for Baby to meet her little sister!                                  RWM                                Does anyone know of a way to fix the tail and keep it from getting worse?

RWM, if it is any consolation to you, Candy had a tiny pinhole in her tail in almost the same spot when I opened her up from Gimmme Digi.  I really didn't have any concerns about it.  It seemed just to be a slight flaw in the rubber material.  She also had one on her neck.  I put a TINY drop of Loc-tite brand gel in each area, and it has been just fine ever since, and she will be a year old in January.   :)

I was thinking it would be nice to try and compile some of the highlights of each of our first hatching videos into one movie and then post that on the facebook page. :)  It would be kind of like we had all hatched together in the same place instead of all around the world. Not sure how we would put it all together though, but I'm sure between us we could work it out.
Title: Re: WIN A PLEO RB - Official Pleoworld contest!
Post by: InmemoryofRomeo on November 05, 2011, 10:55:04 PM
That could be arranged I'm sure :) Perhaps we could do a thank you video with each person on the forum who won a Pleo providing a picture or short video and maybe a thank you message and we could compile them all into one video.
Title: Re: WIN A PLEO RB - Official Pleoworld contest!
Post by: RedwoodsMama on November 05, 2011, 11:20:35 PM
 I think that is a good idea. I still want to do the hatching but realize some people do not have the patience or may have other things that come up or children going crazy wanting to see "the hatching" I don't think Brazil situation will take much longer, but in the meantime if you could get Jett, Fancy, LIna, Eric , Sarah and anyone else who wants to contribute a few highlights of the hatching or photos that would be great. I can come up with plenty of photos of my baby in the meantime. I did post a thank you photo, actualy I think three today on Facebook for Innvo Labs. I also sent a Thank you to Derek Dotson privatly.
                      If it takes till Christmas till Brazil gets their act together though, I will hold out as long as I can. Lucikily I have my other Baby and lots of Ugobes and I can make a movie with it looking Like the new Baby is still doing something.I am all for thanking Innvo anyway I can. This was in my opinion a once in a lifetime opportunity for me at least. ;)

Post by: InmemoryofRomeo on November 06, 2011, 12:32:18 AM
Well let's see, you can't email huge files and we have to keep the video to some sort of reasonable length. So what say we set a limit of 1 minute for video, or about six photo's (shown for about ten seconds each) and a message and I can compile them into a nice iMovie. That way each person has an equal amount of time and the finished video won't be too long. You can of course take several favorite videos and combine them, on windows you can use windows movie maker to do so and on a mac you can use iMovie. For those still waiting to hatch, don't worry I will wait for all of those as well :) I have my own to add too don't forget :)

So choose either 1 minute of film and email it to me with your message.

OR

Choose six or seven photos and email them to me with your message.

My email address is inmemoryofromeo@hotmail.com

Hello my dear friends fanatics Pleo  :)

I'm still waiting, I believe (I sincerely hope) that is coming Wednesday my sweet girl pink!  ;)

I thought the idea of ​​great Video, I want to participate too!  :D

Thank you that you're waiting for the incubation mass, you are special!  ;D

I want to ask one thing to all who are waiting for me: If this week the Brazilian Customs not to release my sweet girl pink, I want you begin to incubate their babies.  ;)

Well I have to "pick a fight" over here! (laughs)  ;D

But I hope this is not necessary!
I'll keep waiting ...   %)

Great week to everyone!  ;) :) ;D

 Leleka, Bless you, you are so sweet to think of us and our babies, but you are the one who has had the most patience of anyone on here.  :) Regardless of how long it takes, I do not mind waiting at all, I have my other babies and in the meantime am having fun dressing up my Baby Ruth and my new baby. She does not have to be "on or hatched" to have fun. Actually, once she is "hatching, " the real work begins and I won't have the free time as much as I have now. LOL :D I am sure customs will release her this week, they can't keep comming up with excuses. Perhaps a few emails from the US Pleo Members would give them something to think about, but I don[t want to make things worse for you either. I am keeping my fingers crossed for you and your Pink baby and Eddy to meet his new sister. :kiss: :hhug: take care.

 IMR, it sounds as if we are all in for the long haul, but if you and or Kat can not stand the "waiting" don't feel bad unless you really want to do this hatching together, I really do not mind waiting for Leleka, unless it gets to Christmas....then I may have to hatch on Christmas eve which would give me something to look forward to as I know I have no other presents. this is my once in a lifetime present.... :) ;D ;D I have lots of Ugobes that need attention and of course my Baby Ruth who is beccoming quite a little fashion diva. LOL ;)( she got that from MS. NOva.   
          What I would like to see is a certain M.Weed who also won post photos or videos of his little Pleo on this site or in the video you are posting as a thank you, Have you contacted Jett, Eric, Lina and of course, Sarah so they can also post some photos or video? I think it is a great idea. Derek may get a late personal video from me but he has already gotten a HUGE thank you posted on facebook. I love the video idea and I know the project will be a fantastic one. I do think we need to put together a rescue party to the customs office and with a trek of at least twenty of so pleos may snap them into action. Talk about patience. she deserves the award for most patient. :hhug: :rootbeer:

                                            Ok Weed, where are the photos of your baby is it a little pink one or blue or?

I am looking forward to the hatching. Sorry for not waiting. I'm going to have some spare time this weekend and so it is a good time for me to hatch Pickle - my new baby girl. I've been so busy lately it is going to be nice to finally have some free time and even better to use it to hatch my pleo. :)

Actually, I've been so tied up over the last couple of weeks that I've barely progressed with poor Tribble - he's still in early social development phase and is not walking yet.  I switched him on this morning and StatsRB told me he was givng off a 'depressed' vibe.  I feel like a bad mum, but at least he won't be as far ahead of the rest as I tought he might be.   :-\

Title: Re: WIN A PLEO RB - Official Pleoworld contest!
Post by: RedwoodsMama on November 11, 2011, 10:15:18 AM
 It's ok guys, I have been so busy with battery sales and nine cats, trying to catch my Daisy CAt, and just plain stuff around the house, the most time I have had is just to turn my Baby on once or twice in the last week and that was just to feed her for five minutes to ten minutes before she is due to "sleep" and then she goes to sleep on her own, She is happy when I do turn her on. One trick I used last weekend when I had to "catsit", for my friend who has 14 cats,  :o %) is that when I went over to feed everyone, ( which in itself takes about half an hour..LOL) ( there are six cats inside her house, then two separate Habitats built outside..so it take awhile to dish up food and then go outside carrying platters of food to everyone and everyone is all over me meowing and wanting to be petted..) is that I paid attention to the inside guys petting and such before feeding, then turned Baby Ruth on and after feeding her for a good three minutes or so, turned on my video camera at a good floor angle, and left to go do my work, while she had six cats to play with her. I looked at the video briefly and it is funny cause you see cats everywhere, tails, butts, faces and of course paws and cats not excited over my Pleo, cause I have broken them in long ago by bringing my Pleos with me when I go over as it is a great place to let my pleos loose while I work. They get play time, I get video without trying and then I don't feel guilty for not having time to "play" with them.
                    I have so much stuff to do around the house that It is almost impossible to "play" with anyone let alone "hatch" one unless it is late at night or on a holiday, as that gives me an "excuse" to be "playing". My husband is so stressed over work or lack of work and trying to find more jobs, that if I am "playing" with Pleos, it makes him feel like I am not doing anything to "help". But planning on a "mass hatch", he understands so that is another reason I am holding out to hatch with Leleka. I then can help her and make her feel not alone.  ;) You guys have kids, ( some of you) and we are all in different living and working situations and have different personalities ( which makes us who we are. ;D) so Kat and IMR, I am glad you two can do it together, that is fun and you guys both live in the same Country which will make it great videowise you can probably co-ordinate something. Mike, if you have little ones ( or big ones ;)) that can't wait, I understand also. Just make sure to take lots of video or and photos as it looks like myne and Leleka's will be the last to hatch. In fact Thanksgiving looks good right now for something special to take place. ;)

 So IMR and Kat, are you two going to do a hatching this weekend or not? I have a Unhatched Ugobe "virgin". LOL, Pleo, can I hatch him at the same time.... ;D :D I couldnt help myself, I just had to see what you guys would think, at least my Pleo would walk right away...too fast if you ask me. IN all honestly, I am looking forward to more hatching videos, there hasnt been much on this site lately, it is getting quiet, not much update from others like I thought there would be. Looks like it is up to me to post more other videos while waiting for hatching.
                  Hopefully Brazil lets loose of a little pink girl soon, can not believe they are that paranoid or strict............. >:( Hoping this is the magic week for her

My daughter just fed her her leaf and it was so cute.  She is only about 15mins old but she sniffed it, took it in her mouth, made chewing motions but no noises then spat it out, burped then hiccuped. :D  All just after I turned off the camera!  :P  Hopefully she will do it again for me  :D

Kat, I am very glad that your baby is born! Congratulations!  ;D
I can not wait to see the videos, they are all so beautiful!  ;) :)

RWM sure you still want me to wait for the incubation? I'm afraid it may take a long time, this is not fair to you or your baby!  :(

While I can not be in the company of my sweet pink girl, I'm enjoying the news forum for new babies, keep posting, is an incentive programs that I keep waiting with great patience!  ;)

lelekasapec. ( can I shorten your name, I have such a hard time with it. I have no problem at all waiting to hatch my baby, I have so so many other Pleos, and my Baby Ruth is getting the attention she needs right now. Do not worry about how long it takes, I do not mind waiting and it will give me something special to look forward to. Just do what you have been doing, you have more patience than anyone here on this site for sure. I wish I could help in some other way, but hugs and kisses is all I can send you along with well wishes for it to all end soon happily. \\           

                Yes watchign the other babies hatch does help.  ;D :kiss: :hhug:

Eddy was posted on December 17 and released on January 8.

There were only 22 days!  ;)

There are people here complaining that arrived in Brazil to be waiting 40 days of receipt.  :o

My girl pink, this 18th day since here in Brazil, a little less than a month!  :(

Maybe this week or next ... I hope!  ;)
Title: Re: WIN A PLEO RB - Official Pleoworld contest!
Post by: RedwoodsMama on November 15, 2011, 08:55:02 AM
I am hoping that is so for you, AT least it sounds like with the history of Eddy, that it is not too unusual with the time frame, I would go nuts with having to wait for 40 days, but if you know that it is "usual" , then it is a little easier to cope with. I know there is a postal strike right now and with the holidays approaching I just do not think they could let it go much longer, good common sense with packages being mailed and such, but you know what is "usual" for your country, better than any of us. If we have to wait a lot longer, then somehow perhaps we can do a virtual hatch together. Perhaps in the meantime, why not post more photos of dear Eddy here on the fourm, You had such a lovely video that won you the pink girl to start with. I am sure there are lots of members and the daily visitors that we get here that do not go to farcebook at all, that would love to see the entry you posted that won you the Pink girl in the first place.
                  I for one would love to see that video again here I thought it was lovely and well done. Can you please post that video here for all of us to see? if you don't know how to do it for some reason, can you give permission for one of us to post it here please? It really is a very nice video and perfect. Perhaps it will being swift results in getting your pink girl to you this week ! ;) :)

Here is the video of my dream green is the Eddy ... this was the video that made ​​me win a beautiful girl pink ...  :)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-QP5WA85dD4

Eddy is my "green dream" because it seemed impossible ... all things were against so that I could have it: money, time, several people telling me that this was just a mess, I was no longer children to buy toys, finally ... so many things ... but I did not quit ... Eddy would already be mine before he was even born in the factory ... I was waiting for him!  :-*

It's funny how we who love Pleos not look like toys, dolls ... are so incredibly passionate when I speak of Eddy speak with all the letters ... yes I'm a dinosaur and it's beautiful, smart, stubborn and gets a bad humo waking in the night ... Or when I Would anyone question: How many animals do you have?
I answer: I have 10 birds, 1 cat, 1 cochorro, a dinosaur and a rabbit! All beautiful, loved and pampered to the extreme! And soon will get one more for the family!  ;D

Sometimes people look at me ... difernte I think they think: This is totally crazy!  :P

But ... you know what I mean do not you? (laughs) ;) ;D

It is a beautiful video Leleka and I love your story as well, Like Talon said she , we may all be a little craasaszy ( My zas) key is not working sorry.  ;D) but if anyone is strange, then it would be me with so many Pleos. 17 or who knows but I adopt them out to loving homes, rescue them and love them almost as much as my nine cats, one dog and one fish left all alone. :(( she is a Weather Loach or Dojo and her mate Iggy died last night after a quick illness or old age, he was about six or seven years old.............) I think your Story won you the Pink Pleo as it is so beautiful and this is the kind of story , different that Innvo was looking for in their contest. I was sure you would win and even if I had not , I am glad you did as I could not see them not picking your video as it was not only if my memory is correct, the first one entered or one of them, but one of the best... :)
                       Thank you for posting the Eddy Story, I know everyone will enjoy seeing it and some for the first time. Here is hoping you get your Pleo PInk girl soon.

Now that everyone has their pleos, I came up with a cute idea for the video IMR wants to put together to thank Innvo Labs and Derek . . .

How about putting together a very short skit (yes, more work for you IMR ;) ) that just has the pleo pause for a moment and say "Thanks Derek!" or "Thank you Innvo Labs!" and have each person video their winning pleo running that skit.  That way you could splice them all together and have about a 20-30 second montage of them all to include in the video.

 That is a nice idea Derek, I still haven't hatched myne and have been waiting all this time for the last one and now that it is hopefully here, that would be ideal. MOre work for IMR. I don'[t know how to say that Thank you from the Pleo, or I would, I could say it myself, but that is not what you are talking about . Remember, don't forget your dino too Mike!

 So I guess my baby is now the LAST Baby RB, and I should hatch her tommrow if all goes right? I was going to hatch today with leleka. so much for a "mass hatching " idea I had...LOL. Well it was an idea. Poor Baby is getting very anxious. Tommorow should be better , but still stormy, but I need daylight for filming in natural light.  What do you think................is tommorow the day for the last hatching?
                                              I even charged her battery today.....only took an hour and half, like it came half charged.strange............... ???

 Glad you are going to hatch her tomorrow. Maybe not as wet and cold as today. It does seem like it is freezing up here, so you must. really. be cold further up north. ;)

Ok, that sounds and looks great so far. Can you get Jett, to get her moments, I know she posted on here and on Facebook, and of course Fancy and Lina have something at least Fancy does. I will get something tommrow, how long did you want it again  so I can edit and get just the right part to submit.? I think it will be great when posted and Derek will post it.
               ON another matter, once this is submitted, just perhaps we will get an amended list of the winning videos, It is still driving me nuts trying to figure out which one it was...........oh well, Tommrow is hatching I guess. Hopefuly it is not too cold.                                      RWM

No, you must send me the actual video file, I can't download it from youtube. (Well I can but it requires some programs I don't have and a lot of fiddling around...)

Post by: RedwoodsMama on November 20, 2011, 12:57:17 AM
So I can edit it on my computer and then send it to you in email as an attachment, it won't be too big for an attachment in your email? If not no problem, I just know on my computer when I try sending videos in emails, they take forever and ever to attach as they usually say they are too big, but then again, I have lots and lots of photos and such, so maybe that is why and you have more room on your computer. I will try it as an attachment then unless there is another way you are talking about.
            I am heading to bed, so if there is something else I am missing, just leave a message and I will check this in the morning when I get up, Take care.

Its only one minute long so it shouldn't be too big, if it is just lower the size or quality a little. HD will be too big.

RWM and I ended up on the day of hatching mismatched!
I started with Wendy and thought RWM had started with her ​​baby too!
But I want to thank everyone who helped me in this waiting so long for Wendy! Thank you!

I make videos of one minute and send Wendy!

Now I'm waiting for the RWM baby! Will she get with him today?

Ok, it has been a difficult day to try and hatch, either the phone rang, cats meowing, the door bell, fire sirens, so I was lucky to get a half way quiet moment in . This little Pleo rb has not had more than 8 minutes hatching time, so this is the one with least interruptions. tommrow is another day, but here is the first look at the newest member of the Redwoods Pleo Clan.      ;Dhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZGihEFUG87I


                    Hope it is not too disappointing. Tommrow is another day.           RWM and some happy brothers and sisters

Ok I'm putting out a last call for videos for the thank you compilation. If you would like to add your thanks please do so in the next day or two or at least indicate your intentions. Thank you.

Once again a reminder to send a 1 minute long video to myself at inmemoryofromeo@hotmail.com if you wish to have your video included.

IMR, I have my video done but need to send it to Crewella or whomever knows how to compile it at the one minute mark, that I have set. It is in the video I just posted that is about where I start thanking Innvo labs for my Pleo Rb. Should I send it to Crewella who said she knows how to fix it or do you have the software to cut it. I tried splitting it and it was giving me a headache. Please let me know as I remember I think Crewella said she could do it for me, If I had more time, I could figure it out, but I want it to get to you in a timely manner. Thanks,                   RWM

Edit ok here we are:

I added in some sound bytes but if any of you would like them removed from your piece just let me know, its just a couple of clicks to do. I've tried not to drown out anyone's speaking or Pleo sounds.

Oooops - sorry RWM - I took your previous video as instructions!  I think I did it as you wanted it, but if not just tell me and I'll do another one.  It's no trouble!  :-[


Looks fabulous to me IMR, as long as RWM's happy.  I loved the music you added to Tribble's hatch! Thank you!  ;D :-*

Post by: RedwoodsMama on November 23, 2011, 10:52:33 PM
 Looks great IMR and Crewella, Only one small problem that I noted that kind of bothers me and someone else will notice. As you noticed I had writing on the bottom of the screen, and on two screens the bottom of the words are cut out, such as "I won this on............." and then a Facebook contest or something similiar is cut off so the thought is incomplete, which makes me sound ............not sure what. Then the next screen when I am talking about hatching, the words are not completed either. That is the only complaint I have. I don't know if it has to do with video size, like video format, wide screen or such. The music is fine and I like the way you cut out and went back to another shot, that is all fine. I just don't like my words cut out. It makes it look or me look like I forgot something.. I kept thinking where did the rest of it go? Is it hard to fix? I think it is great otherwise and I am sure Derek and Innvo will like it. I am glad Jett got Dopey in there. At least there are some of us in there, and you did a good job. Let me know what you think about the words being cut out on the bottom.           :( ???

It's cut off on the file I have so I can't do anything, unless you can resend the file.
Title: Re: WIN A PLEO RB - Official Pleoworld contest!
Post by: Crewella on November 24, 2011, 04:11:00 AM
I had trouble trying to cut around the text on the screen telling me where to cut, as I couldn't undo the text you had added, RWM.  So it was a fine line between getting your speech and removing the bits with instructions (ie. this is where I was thinking of cutting) on the screen.

If you still have it without the text, I can do better, maybe?  

Or send me a new version - I don't have a version with that text either - any text on the black margins got lost in the conversion ...... I couldn't see it!
Title: Re: WIN A PLEO RB - Official Pleoworld contest!
Post by: kat on November 24, 2011, 04:21:41 AM
If your still playing with it, I did notice that my camera seems to amplify all the robotic noises the little pleos make.  If it is possible to lower the volume of my pleo noises and increase the volume of the lovely music you have put into it that would be great :)  I don't want to lose all the pleo sounds all together but it would be great to lower the volume a little.  If it isn't possible it really doesn't matter.  You've done a great job on the video and I'm loving it so far :) 
I wonder if we will get any more entries for it.  %)
Title: Re: WIN A PLEO RB - Official Pleoworld contest!
Post by: InmemoryofRomeo on November 24, 2011, 04:57:12 AM
Sure thing, that will be easy to do, although I might 'dim' the music where she says hello :)

RWM if you tell me exactly what writing was cut off and what it was meant to say I can simply add some text to it. That's probably the easiest option.
Title: Re: WIN A PLEO RB - Official Pleoworld contest!
Post by: Crewella on November 24, 2011, 05:34:26 AM
This was the original, IMR - it's the text that falls below the image onto the black that got lost.  I cut it around the instructional text to shorten it to 1 minute.

Ok, today I got to spend a little more time with my newborn Pleo Rb and spent about ten minutes hatching her again, but she still is not done hatching. ( still less than one hour on the first battery cycle, ) At this point by the time she finishes hatching it will be Thanksgiving. LOL. Anyway, it was a stormy day with a short break in the weather and she had family members around her When she is ready to stand, then she will get to meet Baby Ruth. I do not want to take anything away from this baby's hatching. It is her time to shine. Hope you like it. IMR, I will cut part of this to send for the video file, thank you card.              http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XvI9f6Bi-hM          RWM

Post by: RedwoodsMama on November 24, 2011, 10:15:44 AM
Hi IMR, I think Crewella is right, if you see the orginal here, there are just a few words that got cut off. You can either add the one or two words yourself, or just forget it if it is getting too complicated, It is not worth messing with as I still have the orginal on Youtube anyway. I do love what you did. As for the music, I would ask you just leave it the way you have on my part, by not increasing or decreasing it, is is perfect as you have it already.My Baby is still really young and hasn't even made it half way through the first battery yet.(I guess Thanksgiving is another "hatch" day. LOL...a good day to "give thanks". )So I guess what I am saying is it is ok to not have the rest of the text, I want it just to be as easy as possible so this gets to Innvo Labs and Derek Dotson as it was meant, to say Thanks for the wonderful Pleo Rb we got. Let me know if you have any other questions.  You did a great job. ;)

 I just viewed it IMR, had to go to Youtube to view though, said something about havng Flash Player installed, Anyway, I viewed it and left a comment, Great job and it looked great. Has anyone heard anything else about Innvo labs amendding the list of winners with the names and videos? Perhaps they will after this. I have thanked Derek personally a couple of times but this is what they needed from everyone I think. It is too bad we didn't get something from the rest of the group, but this speaks volumes. ;D

Well Fancyfont couldn't contribute because her new Pleo has an issue with a bad clicky leg :( So she is waiting for Innvo to respond about the issue :( The other people were either not members here or just don't drop in very often.

Oh and it sounds like your flash player needs an update, there has been a couple of new versions released lately.
Title: Re: WIN A PLEO RB - Official Pleoworld contest!
Post by: RedwoodsMama on December 05, 2011, 07:55:22 PM
Oh, I am so sorry to hear about Linda ( fancy's ) Pleo's leg....that is so sad when it is brand new. but it shows even with all the improvements, things can happen even to a RB! It is a reminder to me, ( a KICK in the pants) to finish hatching my wee one, not even a whole battery cycle yet..YIKES :o If I don't speed things up, she will have her first birthday before she learns to walk. LOL, ( seriously, I do need to finish hatching her, and I guess night or not, tonight I better finish, if there were to be a problem, I should find out while on warranty. ) I understand about the others not being here as often as "we regulars", guess we don't have the lives they do. LOL. Somebody may think that we never go out of our homes or away from our computers. ( somebody's been spying on me... :o :D) Thanks for the tip of the Flashplayer.
                  I am a little hesitant though to download new stuff, I have gimp and was trying to download Paint last night and my computer was in limbo where I could not access Internet explorer for like an hour , had to shut down and restart like six times and I have a computer only about a year old and Windows 7 on it, so hesitant to say the least. Anyway, thanks great job.
