The Twitter Challenge

We had a reunion last Friday which came about because someone tweeted for a reunion (who by the way did not attend). This reunion twiterinvite was basically from the peeps who already resigned from JS (my and still current employer) and an almost colleague suggested to meet this Friday expecting that no one will take it seriously since its Friday, pay day and a long weekend to boot which means people already have plans for the night and or weekend... But unfortunately, we took the bait and agreed to meet up.. though there were several people mentioned in the tweet.. only @erbertherese, @ThatGirlJoyce, @raffy_vicente, KG (she just registered in twitter but has not yet revealed her username) and my hubby @akosipektus and I were present.

Laughter, stories and more laughter filled  the night of Persian food  at Uncle Moe's and the most exciting part was that a twitter challenge was created. Since the reunion was through Twitter and we were talking about who's who of the local celebrity twitter world has responded to our tweets (yes, @kc_concepcion did respond to my tweet :D ) we decided to do a challenge.



The Rule:


Tweet an international Celebrity with a minimum of 10,000 followers and if they reply, you win a free dinner worth P1000. It can be anyone (athlete, actor, singer, news anchor, book author... as long as they are known internationally and do not live in the Philippines and not Filipino).


RT (re-tweet) is not counted. the celebrity should Reply to our tweet.


The response must be emailed to the participants or re tweeted as proof.

Raffy (the genius one with glasses) is our Game Master. The man behind the challenge




As competitive as we are..I included, I started tweeting celebrities that I am following.. and I was shocked that after a couple of hours of tweeting (around 1:30 am) some one actually replied!! I can't believe this game would actually work! haha! and so I re tweeted the proof and so excited to win the challenge after a few hours alone... so this actually works! Celebrities do reply to their followers but I look forward to see the other contenders get a piece of this .. and so we are changing the Rule... this time its a Best of 3 Game :) Good luck!!


Thank you @MarieDigby for replying to my tweet.. you are such a sweetheart! Love your Songs.. Love you!
