Im in the semifinals!
Added 2022-04-17 15:04:01 +0000 UTCHello!
So since this is behind a paywall, I can be up front wiyth you all about my feeling s on this contest. I am in the semi finals for the InfluenceMe TV preliminaries to be cast on a reality tv show. I was in first for a long time but then they moved to the semifinals and had to shuffle the groups and now i'm stuck in second.
I am fairly certain this whole contest is either an outright scam or run by absolute fools which is why I am trying to infiltrate. There are shenanigans afoot.
I am trying to move forward at least one more round because then I will be in the finals and most likely be reached out to by the judges for interviews and I think that would be good for the video on this. If you would like to help me get there, please click the link here. DO NOT BUY VOTES.
They originally told us all of the proceeds from the paid votes would be going to charity, but when the contest started it changes to "a portion of the money" would be going to the charity. I don't like that they aren't being transparent about the actual number. If you would like to donate to the charity, please do so through them directly not through Orbiiit. If you click the link here, scroll all the way to the bottom, you will have a free vote to use.
I can't talk about my feelings too openly on IG or Twitter as I don't know which socials of mine they are monitoring.
If you have any questions i will do my best to answer them.

Theoretically ( I definitely haven't done this a dozen times already) you can just cast votes with ridiculously fake email addresses like agjaydiajsg @ gauuekabsh dot com

2022-04-18 02:40:50 +0000 UTCI was poking around the site reading random entries to various contests and I got way more pissed off than I expected I would. Something about selling dreams to vulnerable, desperate creators under a guise of charity that rubs me the wrong way. Go figure I was going to use temporary email addresses and a VPN to write a script and stuff the box with free votes, but when I was signing up, the confirmation code went straight to the spam folder so I'm not sure how that would work. Do you know how many finalists there will be? Do you have to be 1st in your group? Asking for a friend. A friend that wouldn't dream of cheating.
2022-04-18 00:33:53 +0000 UTCi plan on emailing the JED Foundation to make sure they know they can sue if they received no money
2022-04-17 23:25:14 +0000 UTCI gave a free vote and ended up donating from BC Cancer's official site. Didn't like the idea of buying votes and are glad to hear you are not either. Good luck with the covert infiltration of the contest.
2022-04-17 23:02:03 +0000 UTCPro-tip - people can create and even check a free temporary email address at temp-mail dot org.

2022-04-17 19:55:54 +0000 UTCAh, so they're probably just picking whoever can pull in the most suckers to buy votes, or just whoever the 'sponsor' prefers.

2022-04-17 19:49:18 +0000 UTCYeah feels scammy as all hell. Even finding that free vote button was after dodging a dozen buy votes buttons. It's obvious the goal of that site is definitely not about 'counting votes'. I hope people have a throwaway email address for the signup. I had to pull out my old email address I use for obvious scams or sites that are likely selling my email info. With all that said, good luck!

2022-04-17 19:47:03 +0000 UTCI just read through terms and conditions and it says “Any voting results provided by Sponsor are subject to modification without notice or liability of any kind. IN ALL CASES, AN ENTRANT IS NOT A POTENTIAL PRIZE WINNER EVEN IF THEY HAS THE HIGHEST VOTE TOTAL AS REFLECTED IN VOTING RESULTS; POTENTIAL PRIZE WINNERS WILL BE NOTIFIED PRIVATELY BY SPONSOR.” Like wow this is….. totally… not.. scammy……………
2022-04-17 17:27:28 +0000 UTCMade an account and voted. Hope you win, but even if you don't I think a video expressing your thoughts when this is all over would be well worth watching.

2022-04-17 15:23:26 +0000 UTCDid anyone notice how the charity randomly changed to BC Cancer? Although some of the links on the site still say Jed Foundation. Very curious. I wonder if Jed Foundation finally reached out to Orbiiit and requested that they not be associated with this scammy shenanigan.
