February $200 Snap Answer Winner Announced
We received many interesting and unique responses to the question
What is the best pick-up line you have heard?
The winner was Brett L from Bradley University
If a man is serious about winning the love of one, or many women, he'll say what no other men are saying at the bars or clubs, "If I weren't gay, I'd totally be all over you." Once this false sense of sexuality is established, the girl(s) will feel comfortable around you and are no longer pressured. When you want to make a move later, the girl(s) will have either forgotten that you said you were gay, or they will think they are so good in bed that they must've converted you. Works every time.

Our first $200 Snap Answer Winner Announced
We received many interesting and unique responses to the question
What is the best way to cheat on a test?
The winner was Gene from University of South Florida
What is the one thing that teachers allow on your desk when you're taking a test? Well, most teachers. Not a calculator or extra paper, they ask you to take off your hat and remove your jacket. One thing that most teachers won't ask you to remove, is a water bottle. Simply, make a cut down the back of the water bottle label, don't remove it completely, print your answers in a small font in a text box, tape it to the back of the label and tape the label back to the bottle. PRESTO, there you go.
Please note that multiple people had similar answers. This was the first one received. All decisions are final.

Awarding of Cash Prizes Cash Prizes
During this beta testing period (1) we are starting to award prizes (2) your videos are eligible for inclusion in the TV Show, and (3) we are looking for, and appreciate your feedback and comments
While we have removed the password we emphasize we are still in beta. If you come across any issue, problem, or concern, we would appreciate your feedback. Please notify us by clicking "CONTACT US" link at the bottom of the page and sending us the details. We will try to quickly correct the issue.
Prizes: We are now testing the awarding of prizes process. We are awarding five $25 prizes each day.
For you to win a daily prize, your video must be one of the top-5 most viewed videos of the day, and have a minimum average rating of 3 stars.
Cash prizes will be awarded via PayPal.
Notes: In cases of ties, the video that was posted first will be declared the winner. A video can only win a daily prize once. Duplicate uploads of the same video is prohibited. A user cannot win a daily prize two days in a row. Videos that are uploaded and generate views without, in the opinion of Flix55.com, any valid entertainment value or in the spirit of the site , are just two examples of videos that will be NOT be awarded prizes. All decisions are final. Flix55.com reserves the right to terminate these prizes or change the rules at any point.

Flix55.com announces "invite-only, closed" beta launch!
To our College Friends! Family! Business Partners!
Welcome to the Flix55.com beta!! We are very excited to start allowing a limited number of people in to check out the site.
Flix55.com is an online video site in which you can win cash prizes for (a) simply being an active participant on the site (watching videos, posting videos) as well as (b) posting videos that end up being very popular.
And your videos can even be on 
!
You are among the 1st group of people invited into the site. We are spending (and continue spending) countless hours developing, testing, changing, and fixing the site.
We're doing our best but... we believe you may discover problems or inconsistencies we have missed. (Please tell us if you find one.)
Register. Upload videos. Search. View. Share.
Start by registering and uploading as many videos as you have around. (Though please keep in mind - No TV shows, music videos or other copyrighted materials that you do not own!) Please include videos that you may have previously posted on other video sites.
Then watch some videos. Share videos... Click around and try things out!
As you are already aware, Flix55.com is currently password protected.
During the testing period, most emails generated from the site will be temporarily redirected to our staff. (The "registration confirmation email", and "the email notifying you that your video is ready", are the only emails that are not being redirected to our staff.)
Why? Redirecting emails allows the Flix55.com team to make sure everything is working properly. The last thing we would want to do is accidentally send out emails to the wrong people with the wrong messages.
Even though most emails are not being sent out, please use the system. Pick some Cash Buddies. Share videos. And tell us what you think! This is incredibly helpful to us.
Temporarily there are no prizes ---- but your videos can be on .
During the initial testing period, we will NOT be awarding prizes. (We need to make sure everything on the site is working properly! We "plan" on implementing prizes soon.)
However, we have already started working on the show. The videos you upload today will have the opportunity to be in the show!
We need your feedback. Please tell us what you Love... Hate... What's confusing? What's Broken?
Make suggestions!
Please tell us anything and everything that crosses your mind when using the site!
Click here to send us your feedback and suggestions.
We will use your feedback to update the site with the goal of creating the best user experience for all of us!
Thank you for your participation.
