Wrong username on word of the day

Question

I do not understand, that one of the answers to the word of the day was coming out under another name, in spite of the fact that it was my answer.

Really not important, but if it is a game it should be a fair one.

Which answer porcupine ? Please supply. - ray76, Nov 16, 2011

I did Ray - porcupine7, Nov 16, 2011

Answer 1

HI, porcu, was that today's ?

If this did happen, it is solely Chris's fault, so we are both going to kick his butt!!

I am just kidding, but you are right. both Chris and I normally choose the sentence for the day, there is always one easy sentence and one that is more complicated.

Chris has to copy and paste the sentences with the username in a spreadsheet...it appears he made a mistake, this can sometimes happen. Yesterday he had pasted the English sentence in the Spanish part, jeje, I mean, things happen.

We are sorry, porcu, we are trying to be as fair as possible on this ...we actually always try to choose somebody different every day.

Please supply the sentence, at least we will know it was yours

No problem, but for the sake of the fair play I had to mention it. - porcupine7, Nov 16, 2011

Just fixed one tiny typo, Heidita. Because thread was old, I did not mention it in comment field. Let me know if I did the right thing?? - territurtle, Nov 17, 2011

Answer 2

I'm sorry Porcupine....this is totally my fault.

I always try to be very careful when entering information into the spreadsheet, especially for the user information - but this time I got two numbers crossed.....

As Gary said, congratulations for having your sentence selected, but I apologize for crediting a user that is not active and doesn't post - you definitely deserve the credit....

I will try to do better....sorry that I didn't give you the credit you deserve Porcupine...

I will see to it that you get punished:P jeje, not a big deal chris...I am sure porcu understands. - 00494d19, Nov 16, 2011

Yes, no problem Chris, I mentioned it only because of the fair game - porcupine7, Nov 16, 2011

Answer 3

By the way Porcupine, congratulations on your word.

Thanks Yeser - porcupine7, Nov 16, 2011

I'll add my congratulations to Yeser's! - territurtle, Nov 17, 2011

Answer 4

No problem, but for the sake of the fair play I had to mention it. -

It was perfectly ok to mention this, we are going to double check...but even then we sometimes miss a mistake or accent...the sentences are triple checked and the other day we still missed an accent.

Anyway, Chris will answer you either here or by PM.

actually, this frondon has never even posted...well, sorry - 00494d19, Nov 16, 2011

Nice of you to take care of this really minor incident. Thanks - porcupine7, Nov 16, 2011

The above number was pasted for that sentence.

http://www.spanishdict.com/users/538387/porcupine7

And this is your usernamee number

You can see one of the numbers was changed:

883 instead of 838

I see. Every day I check, what was my answer for the word of the day therefore I found out this. - porcupine7, Nov 16, 2011
