The OpenStudy Back to School Party

Filed in All, January 11, 2012, 3:20 pm by colm

Open Study's Having a Party!

Hi OpenStudiers! Ready for the party to kick off another great semester? You are invited to the OpenStudy Back to School Party on Jan 15, 19.00 GMT (11:00 am Pacific Time).  Its online – of course.

How to get ready for the party.

1. RSVP:  Official Party Room and RSVP and register in the link there to get the swag.

2. Who’s coming? Go to OpenStudy Facebook page to catch the action.  Be sure to Like us when you are there.

3. Check the Music system:  The party is going to take place at Jamcloud - a site where we can all join together and share music, videos, you name it, together! We’re also planning on giving away prizes, having some fun polls, and generally just having a good time!

4. Put on your party clothes and join us with nicely polished brains!

So here’s the plan: at 11AM PST on January 15th, the whole OpenStudy team is going to be at the OpenStudy Party (on OpenStudy, direct link above) and JamCloud.  We will be sharing music and videos, and doing what we like to do best, getting to know you.  As part of the festivities, we’ll run some contests, we’ll challenge you with some brainteasers, share in a few laughs, and, the best part, we’ll be giving out some OpenStudy T-shirts as well as some Amazon gift cards!

We have had a blast of a year, grown from 15,000 to 80,000 and who else to thank but you, the OpenStudier?

Here are some of the contests we’ll be running:

Top  Helper - Who is the #1  Helper on OpenStudy? Medals shmedals, Who do you think has helped the most on OpenStudy? Let us know! The winner gets a $25 Amazon gift card.

Top Referrer – The one who invites the most of their friend’s to the party gets a $25 Amazon Gift Card. Get inviting! To win, share using the Facebook or Twitter buttons from OpenStudy.com, then when that person registers, we’ll record it and reward the Top Referrer.

Best Use of the Equation Editor – Who has made the best, most complex, most elegant equations on OpenStudy? Winner gets $10 in Amazon cash!

Most Time Spent on Problems – Who’s that OpenStudier that spent so much time on a problem, to switch on the lightbulb, that you have to recognize them?  Reward them by voting to give them a $10 Amazon gift card!

Best Question Asker – Help us reward the OpenStudier who regularly asks the best questions, and sticks around to figure out HOW to do something, not just an answer. They deserve $10 for that (at least)!

We’ll also be giving out a couple of $5 gift cards during the party, as well as OpenStudy T-shirts (more on how to win coming soon).

Can’t install Jamcloud?  Don’t worry.  There will be plenty of action in the Party Room – you won’t miss it.  Crank up your speakers!

Can’t join us? Awww! We’ll miss you for sure.  And just to prove that we will, if you register and we’ll keep you in the drawing. (Scroll back up – and register)

See you all there.
