WIN a Samsung Tab – Community Prize Draw

Hi Everyone
Well we’ve got sporting fever here… spurred on by the exciting Record Breakers competition being run across wider BT we wanted to join in with some of the action…
We’re really excited about the upcoming London 2012 Olympic Games so decided to run our own Olympic Games themed Prize Draw in the community!  We reckon that communications are going to play a massive part in the London 2012 Olympic Games – the way that athletes and coaches keep in touch, how events are beamed around the world and the different ways people watch/listen or read about the action.  We wonder what the first Olympians would have thought about all these futuristic ways of communicating and keeping people connected?
With that in mind we thought it would be fun to think about what kind of futuristic events could be introduced as a new Olympic sport!  Communications have changed so much over the years, what do you think could change in terms of Olympic events in future?
Share your thoughts with us and you could win a Samsung Tab! This is a great prize so can’t wait to read all your suggestions – remember you need to be in it to win it!
How to enter
To enter, simply post a reply to this thread answering the question ‘If you could add a new futuristic event into the Olympic Games, what would it be and why?’ And that’s it!
The winner will be the first valid entry chosen at random after 20th December 2011.
Read full terms and conditions for the Prize Draw here

Good to see the links are now there
Well, if I may.....
Angry Customer - could make some customers happy - bit like angry birds, though we throw an OR engineer or CS rep
BTHH3 discus throw - it's nearly like a discus IMHO - my own personal record = 15 mtrs
BTV weight lifting - guess that by the time it's the all singing and dancing box, it could start to weigh a bit
BTF/O hunt - there must be some working out there, somewhere....
Beat the BT Infrastructure - at times is quicker to chisel a message in stone and personally deliver it
Beat yourself with your handset until you pass out - in some cases it's better than calling CS
Toss the telegraph pole - if they're all taken down, BT'll have to upgrade the lot
That should get the ball rolling

Again captions should be submitted to SeanD or StephanieG via PM by 5pm 23rd December and the caption competition will be judged by the Mod team with the winner announced after on 23rd Dec.
    Please note that if you win the photo competition you can’t also win the caption comp as well!

    Hi all
    I'm really pleased to announce our photo competition winner, congrats to StuartRogerson - one Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 will be on Santa's sleigh with your name on it shortly!
    But there's still one Galaxy 2 to be won in part two of the competition - see below for the winning photo from Stuart. We felt this picture best captured the feeling and meaning of Christmas - but what do you think? PM a caption for this photo to StephanieG or SeanD and we'll select the best as the winner, it should be something that captures the spirit of Christmas - it can be funny, seasonal or sentimental. Last day for submitting your captions is 23rd Dec (by 5pm) so get your thinking caps on, we're looking forward to seeing what you come up with!

    A space-based resource management game,loosely a sequel to the earlier Utopia. You start building your community on an asteroid, whose natural resources must be mined and put to use. You must use generators to power the mines and their auxilliary buildings such as storage facilities, which must be maintained. All of this costs money, but the mined resources can be sold or used.  Problems you face include pollution, collisions with other asteroids, worker discontent and alien unrest. Battles against the aliens indigenous to the area must be fought, making building and maintaining a space fleet a priority.

  • WIN £50 Amazon Vouchers in our Community Prize Dra...

    Hi Everyone
    It’s time for another prize draw…
    As it’s social media week this week we’ve been chatting about how much social media has changed our lives – the way we communicate with friends and family via networks like Facebook and Twitter, and how we use online forums like this to get help with products and services!  And it’s really all down to the way that technology has progressed over the years – without these advancements in technology we wouldn’t even be mentioning the words social media!
    Let us know how technology has changed your life and you could be in with a chance of winning £50 worth of Amazon vouchers.  It could be the internet…or perhaps it's something like the microwave that has made a big change to your life?   We want to hear your stories...
    How to enter
    To enter, simply post a reply to this thread answering the question ‘What technology has changed your life and why?’  And that’s it!
    The winner will be the first valid entry chosen at random after 7th October 2011.

    The way that technology has moved on in the last few years is amazing.  My only regret is that touch screens were not available a few years ago when my elderly mother could have benefited during her last few months in a hospice.  She was unable to move her body or talk and could only rraise a hand and we communicated by making her a screen of words which she was able to communicate to us and ask for what she wanted or if she was in pain.
    If I had had a touch screen tablet at that time life would have been so much better.
    This is a technology that can help many elderly and disabled people and I would love to be involved in setting up something like this in my community.
    I already use computers to help my father shop on the days that he is unable to go out or to help him research something or answer his problems, but to be able to show him on facebook his grandchildren in pictures as they grow up.
    My father had family in Canada also that he had never met and my sister was able to use the internet to trace his long lost family and to put closure on his family past and this was an amazing achievement which we could not have done without the technology that we now have.
    So whilst we are all racing ahead with the latest gadgets and technology lets not forget that we can use this also to help the elderly and disabled people communicate and make life much easier for them too.

  • Verizon wireless billing on Samsung Tab 2 for Google Play Coins

    I have a samsung tab 2 tablet. I have google play slot games on it that I play. When I try to purchase coins it give me the option of billing my verizon account, but when I try to enable it it says "sending account verification sms to mobile provider", but comes back with "an error occurred. Please try again." I have tried everything. It works on my Motorola smartphoe, but not on my tablet. Months ago I had the same game on both my phone and my tablet and I could make a purchase on my phone billing verizon and it would credit my tablet game too. But that seemed to just disappear. Anybody have any ideas.

        Let's explore options to make this work for you GG3! Sounds like your text message is not going through because you are trying to verify the account with your tablet wireless number, and tablets do not get text messages to their assigned VZW number. You may want to process via your phone, but you may need to have the game on both your phone and tablet in order for it to work.

  • Samsung Tab 10.1 WiFi Balck 2014 Edition - Anyconnect and IPSec don't work

    I have an employee with a Samsung Tab 10.1 2014  black wifi only edition tablet. She has tried to use both an IPsec connection and the Anyconnect for ICS+ (and the Anyconnect normal Android client and also the OpenConnect open source alternative to Anyconnect).
    The problematic behavior is the same on any VPN connection. The vpn client connects and then no traffic makes use of it. I can see the VPN session on the firewall and it shows no decrypted/decapsulated packets. Additionally, the tablet loses all internet access once the VPN connects (whether it is IPsec or Anyconnect) even though the VPN is set to use split tunneling (and I can see in the connection details that it is only set to tunnel a couple of /24 networks in the 10.x.x.x range).
    I have at least 20 other users that use the same VPN session groups with a variety of Windows, iOS and Android devices and so far, this Samsung tablet is the only problem.
    I have tried different accounts on this tablet and I have tried this employee's account on other devices and the problem remains only on the tablet. Her account works great logging in on my Samsung Galaxy S4 using both IPsec and Anyconnect client software. My account shows the same problem as her account when used on her tablet.
    I have applied all available updates on her tablet, it is currently running Android 4.4.2 and there are no updates available from Samsung for it.
    My phone is running 4.4.4 but the client app versions are the same on both devices.
    She has even exchanged the tablet for a replacement of the same model.
    Can anyone suggest any additional troubleshooting or cause for this problem?
    Basically it is as if the vpn client software works fine but the Android operating system simply ignores it except to stop all internet access.

    The warranty entitles you to complimentary phone support.
    If you bought the product in the U.S. directly from Apple (not from a reseller), you have 14 days from the date of delivery in which to exchange or return it for a refund. In other countries, the return policy may be different. If you bought from a reseller, its return policy applies.

  • How do I create a simple "prize draw" program?

    Hey, I'd like to create a simple "prize draw" program
    that randomly selects a name (or number) from a list of names, I'd like it to be my own custom version. For a programmer this is probably the easiest thing but I'm new to programming (beginner), don't eve know if I'm in the right subcategory (flash). Is there a tutorial or something somewhere that you guys think could help me out, please?

    Create the list as an array and use the Math methods to randomly pick one of the values from the array.
    var prizeArray = new Array("name1","name2");
    var drawnPrize = prizeArray[Math.floor(Math.random()*prizeArray.length)];
    trace(drawnPrize);
    If you don't know if you should be using Flash, then you probably don't want to be looking for help until you figure out what you intend to do for your custom design.
