wow I might try that never heard of it! how does it work?
thanks!
Have a look on the website. Make sure you sign up for the Great Down Under Nappy Hunt (GDUNH) and not the Great Cloth Diaper Hunt as that one is based in the US!
It basically entails going to websites that are on their list (baby/nappy related) and searching through that site's web pages for the GDUNH icon. Once you've found it, click on it then go to the next website and find another!!
You have to find a certain amount to be in the draw for prizes. If you manage to find all of the icons then you go in the draw for the Grand Prize.
Some sites have riddles to help (or hinder!!) you find the icons. When you sign up and the hunt begins, there is a GDUNH forum that you can ask a site owner questions about where to find their icon. It's the only place you can ask for hints. If you ask for a hint anywhere else (ie Bubhub) you can be disqualified from the hunt:(
Anyway, it's a big time waster and a hell of a lot of fun :D

I had the exact same problem. Said the domain nameis waiting to be renewed or deleted!

It doesn't work for me either. Says the page doesn't exist. Help!!??!!

Yep, I'm having the same problems - perhaps we could wait for Lesley to come back on and let us know what's going on with it :)

yep I had the same problem too
Don't worry girls... I am having problems... I get this message
Notice: This domain name expired on 07/10/07 and is pending renewal or deletion
I have tried googling and typing it in... and it's not working!! :no:

I registered 30 minutes ago and it worked fine...got the successful email too.
It appears to be working for some and not for others, so just bear with us, and it will be up and running again asap I am sure. My suggestion is to wait for a post from either Shane or I that says it's good to go and then go and register. It doesn't start till the first of August, so you have plenty of time to register. Any sponsors having issues, just send me a pm :D
Cheers

Phew! Thanks Lesley, i was having heart palpatations at the thought of not being able to register :D
All sorted girls. You should be able to access the registration now. For those of you that can't. Please clear your cache and try again tomorrow. Depending on your ISP's some are a bit slower to catch up than others :D
Just finalising some details with some of the Sponsors, but the tally at the moment is:
79 Sponsors. $3500 in prizes. 38 Chances to win.
We'll be uploading the Prizes in the next day or 2. And stay tuned for something a little bit different in the August Hunt.

OMG. 79 sponsors :eek: That is awesome! I can't waIT :D
I have registered... but haven't got an email??.... does that mean I'm officially registered or not??
You should have received an email, cause the discount code is in it. Just send me a pm with your email addy and we'll check it out.

Ok so call me blonde but I'm a bit confused. I tried reading through the stuff on the diaper decisions website, but I didn't find it very explanatory for someone who's not got a clue what its all about! :confused:
Do we get a check list with sites to visit, or clues? And the idea is to find an icon hidden somewhere in the site?
Is that correct?
Sounds like lots of fun, I just need these thing spelt out to me. :rolleyes: :laughing:
Yes there is a checklist of sites to visit.
There is also a hints forum to get hints from for those sites.
And the icon which is blue this time and looks like a nappy is what you are looking for.
We are always here to answer your questions, so ask away when it starts and we'll guide you through it.
I just registered for this but the email was accidently deleted...gone forever deleted.
Am i able to request a new email? Or do i need to re register?
:gloomy:

:gloomy:
:shame: you need to request a new email through the DD site. Don't re-register.
Never mind...i found it..but thanks anyway!!:yes:
It's still not working for me! :thumbsdown:
Has anyone seen what the icon looks like yet?
Ooops! Never mind i found that too! Gee at this rate i'll be going great guns in this competition:o

Lesley, is the checklist an updated one? It looks like an exact replica of the last one - and doesn't seem to have some of the new sponsors on it....

Did many bubhubbers win anything on the last hunt? :detective:

The checklist is still the last one. New one won't be up for a few days yet.

Lesley, sorry to be a pain in the rear - but the checklist, the list of sponsors, and your numbers don't add up!
The following sponsors are on the checklist, but aren't on the list on the DD website (so their webaddresses aren't available):
-Beetlebums
-Bits for Bots
-Cherub's Kiss
-Excellence Coaching Solutions
-Outrageous!
-Pookey Pockets.
Also, you said 79 sponsors - the checklist lists 80, but the list on the website has only 74....I'm a tad confuzzled :o
cheezelkat
01-08-2007, 12:37
Tam, they are all the extreme sites...listed up the top of the sponsors list

Okay there is 80 Sponsors, one had to pull out last minute, due to family issues.
6 are extreme sites
and there are 74 standard sites.
They are all available here http://www.diaperdecisions.com/pages/huntlist.php

Most of them weren't up then - it didn't start till 9am AEST, so no wonder you had a hard time ;)

Well ladies how are you all going?

Blame the bald one. I think it's easier now that there are less pages on my site. Check the hint forum. There is a good clue there now :)
