Well, it looks like some Canadian GB's are starting out the week better than others. After a typical Sunday point earning, GB2 (Ontario) and GB3 (Vancouver) seemed to have found the magic points on Monday. A typical Monday should be 3,025 points (with the weekly 1k bonus points for those who get em' on Monday) GB2 & GB3 picked up an extra 2-3k bonus points (and typical of GB3, he also picked up his extra 225 points on top) I'm surprised GB1 did not go all in on the extra bonus today - he's usually very good at getting extra points. GB4 is a new addition this week - GB4 is from the great plains of Manitoba (I added the great plains part - as Manitoba seems to be an extension of the great plains in the Midwest of the United States - I don't know if the Canadians believe this???) Anyway, I was alerted to GB4 from another member here and he's been added to the points tracking. If you know of any others, please reach out to me on GasBuddy so that no names are mentioned here. Week 2/20/22

lll --- GB1 was able to continue his extra points gathering again today and scored another 1,000 extra points today. GB2, GB3, & GB4 were NOT able to find any extra points again! Week 2/20/22

--- With this weeks "Special Challenge" on Tuesday ( As I indicated on my Special Challenge Post ), some users have tricked the system by clicking only TWICE instead of 3 times likes the rest of us probably did and thus are keeping the Special Challenge on their phones so they can click again another day (or two, or three, TBD). The below 4 users from the Gas Buddy web site have done this two-click trick to only get 2,000 special challenge points on Tuesday (instead of 3,000 points). They then double-clicked the Special Challenge again on Wed for another 2,000 points (now totaling 4,000 points). Tomorrow, they will again, only click it two times for another 2,000 points (6,000 total for the week). Week of 2/27/22
| Sun | Mon | Tue | Wed | Thur | Fri | Sat | Weekly Points Totals | GB1 - Toronto | 2,025 | 2,025 | 4,025 | 4,025 | ------- | ------- | ------- | 12,100 | GB2 - Toronto | 2,125 | 3,025 | 10,025 | 4,025 | ------- | ------- | ------- | 19,200 | GB3 - British Columbia | 2,025 | 3,325 | 4,025 | 4,025 | ------- | ------- | ------- | 13,225 | GB4 - Manitoba | 2,125 | 3,025 | 10,025 | 4,025 | ------- | ------- | ------- | 19,200 |
GB2 & GB4 earned their monthly challenge bonus of 6,000 points on the 1st day of the month (yeah, I'm shaking my head too and throwing the BS flag for posting 100 diesel prices on Tuesday but whatever). They then earned the 2,025 normal points + the 2,000 "Special Challenge" points for the total showing of 10,025 points. GB3 was back earning his extra 200 points on Monday, as is shown in his Monday purple points total of 3,325 points. His points summary is: 2,025 for normal earning, 1,000 for the weekly bonus (report 20 mid-grade prices), 100 points for the weekly poll... and his special 200 points that he magically pulls out of his A*# over and over again. (I really wish he would come explain how he gets his extra 200 points on a consistent basis or he can PM me!).

--- Well, there is still some trickery going on with this weeks "Special Challenge" ( As I indicated on my Special Challenge Post ). All 4 GB's keep double-clicking the Special Challenge that was put out on Tuesday and earning an extra 2,000 points per day (6,000 total for the week). Week of 2/27/22

GB1 & GB3 are online now...maybe they're checking in here to see their weekly totals! Someone's viewing this post...as it keeps growing daily!

--- The "Special Challenge" ( As I indicated on my Special Challenge Post ) clickery is still going on. All 4 GB's keep double-clicking the Special Challenge that was put out on Tuesday and earning an extra 2,000 points per day (8,000 total for the week). Week of 2/27/22
| Sun | Mon | Tue | Wed | Thur | Fri | Sat | Weekly Points Totals | GB1 - Toronto | 2,025 | 2,025 | 4,025 | 4,025 | 4,025 | 5,025 | ------- | 21,150 | GB2 - Toronto | 2,125 | 3,025 | 10,025 | 4,025 | 4,025 | 4,025 | ------- | 27,250 | GB3 - British Columbia | 2,025 | 3,325 | 4,025 | 4,025 | 4,025 | 4,025 | ------- | 21,450 | GB4 - Manitoba | 2,125 | 3,025 | 10,025 | 4,025 | 4,025 | 4,025 | ------- | 27,250 |
GB1 added his 1,000 weekly points bonus to Friday's total - for a total of 5,025 points for Friday Looking back in history...it appears that GB3 (a member here from the Vancouver, British Columbia GB site) first came across this trick the Week of Dec 19, 2021. He used this trick for two weeks and then probably shared it with GB2 and then a week later, GB1 got in on the action. They've been doing this every week that the 3 click Special Challenge comes up. GB4 is a new addition after another member here alerted me on GB that he too has been climbing up the All-Time Leaderboard and just passing long-time members earning the max points per day, with ease. GB1 - I noted that you haven't yet got your 100 poll points for the week?? Don't forget to get them Saturday! You're welcome!

Just a quick update to this week's Special Challenge...
GB1, GB2, & GB4 have already double-clicked for their extra 2,000 points today...
Yet, GB3 (From Vancouver, BC) did not get the extra 2,000 points yet?
Did he forget? He was on here earlier....Maybe someone should ping him!

--- The "Special Challenge" ( As I indicated on my Special Challenge Post ) clickery is still going on for a 5th day. All 4 GB's keep double-clicking the Special Challenge that was put out on Tuesday and earning an extra 2,000 points per day (10,000+ total for the week). Week of 2/27/22
| Sun | Mon | Tue | Wed | Thur | Fri | Sat | Weekly Points Totals | GB1 - Toronto | 2,025 | 2,025 | 4,025 | 4,025 | 4,025 | 5,025 | 5,025 | 26,175 | GB2 - Toronto | 2,125 | 3,025 | 10,025 | 4,025 | 4,025 | 4,025 | 4,025 | 31,275 | GB3 - British Columbia | 2,025 | 3,325 | 4,025 | 4,025 | 4,025 | 4,025 | 3,025 | 24,475 | GB4 - Manitoba | 2,125 | 3,025 | 10,025 | 4,025 | 4,025 | 4,025 | 4,025 | 31,275 |
GB1 flexed out and earned 5,025 points today - I don't know if this means he's done for the week? And even though GB1 is 81k points ahead of his next victim...if this extra point clickery on the Special Challenge keeps up...he'll take over his next spot on the All-Time Leaderboard within 8-10 weeks! GB1 still needs to get his 100 points Poll Points...5 more minutes! GB3 (a member here from the Vancouver, British Columbia GB site) who started all of this clickery on the Special Challenge back in December has not yet finished out the day as he's only at 3,025 for the day (then again...it's midnight here on the East Coast - out in British Columbia he's got a few more hours to complete another 1,000 or close out the week like GB1 did. Then again, he could always change the time on his phone - as he and others have done in the past if they forgot to earn a challenge during a particular time.

I see the Canadians got their St. Paddy's day points on Sunday! I guess Gas Buddy kept you in the St. Paddy's day points loops. Otherwise, so far this week...it's been all quiet on the Canadian Front. No extra points earning this week. Except GB#3! Today, he earned his extra 200 Canadian only points! I'm surprised he has not shared this tip/trick with GB1, GB2, or GB4. Maybe it's only available up there in British Columbia/Vancouver???

GB#3 is earning those extra 200 points again! I'm surprised that GB#1, GB#2, and GB#4 are not earning them??

So, the "Special" Challenge "Download a little Appiness" from Valero is back... The Canadian Gas Buddies (GB#1, GB#2, GB#3, & GB#4) are ONLY clicking on it TWICE as opposed to three times like everyone else... Why is that?? What do they know that they are not sharing here with the rest of us (They come to this website every day!)??
