10. I missed out on entering to become Miss Social in the beginning of the competition. Is it too late to sign up? You can enter the competition at any point during the main round (until December 20th).

11. What is the structure of this competition? There will be a main round and a final round. Votes will be totaled each day; the girl who receives the most votes for the 24hr period (1 day, starting at 12 Noon Pacific Time) will earn a spot in the final round. The top 10 overall vote recipients who are not already finalists will also earn a spot in the finals. The competition will begin on November 18th and the main round will end on December 20th. Contestants may enter the competition at any time up until December 20th.

13. How does one vote? You can obtain votes in three ways-all within the app.

The first way is to earn votes by interacting with the app. Each of the following actions will reward you with points that you can use to vote:
Sign up for the Miss Social app
Invite a friend to download the app
Interact with the app: view profiles, share content, Tweet, etc.
The more you interact, the more hidden votes will be unlocked!
We cannot stress this enough- to be successful, you must invite as many people as possible to the app using the invite button at the top right corner and by sharing your individual link! We know that there are currently some issues with the links and the invite buttons, but we are working on them!

The second way to earn votes is to win a challenge. We will be creating new challenges regularly. Be sure to check the Challenges tab frequently throughout the competition so you don’t miss out!

The third way is to purchase votes on the get votes tab. To buy a vote, specify the desired vote quantity and enter your mobile number. All purchased votes will be billed to your mobile account. After buying the vote(s) you will receive a text message asking you to confirm the vote purchase. To finalize the vote, respond to the text per its instructions.

14. So girls can just buy their way to the top? No! Because voting will be done via mobile billing, vote purchases will be capped pursuant to carrier restrictions. These vary by carrier but the limit is around $30/month on all carriers. Yes, people can buy small amounts of votes, but the big vote numbers have to come through app interaction and only those girls who work the challenges and spread word about the app will be able to win!

15. I’m getting an error message, help? Refresh your page, this should fix most of the problems. All error messages are reported to us and we are working on getting rid of any and all issues in the app. It will be constantly updated and improved so just sit tight and rest assured that any problem you are having will be remedied ASAP!

16. Help! My friends say that the link provided and the invitations I sent are not working. We are aware that some of your links might not be fully functional at the moment. We apologize for the inconvenience and are in the process of eliminating this error.

17. Why is the app slow, or not loading? Due to the high volume of contestants and users, you may experience a lag during high-traffic hours. We are increasing our bandwidth and appreciate your patience. These ladies are worth the wait, we promise!
