When I got home from the salon today, I’d planned on dropping cards to 900 blogs (for my 3 blogs). It has been a habit that’s too hard to break. Actually, that has been my normal routine since I took dropping cards religiously. When I was about to start with my dropping chores, I got too surprised when I received the following messages:
Outage: Scheduled outage for two hours from 4am Boston time (click for more timezones) to do some database optimization.We’ll be back as soon as we can!
I wasn’t able to receive any notification in my mailbox that they had a scheduled power outage today. Did you? The power outage here in the Philippines is scheduled at 4Pm and will resume at 6PM. Had I known it beforehand, I wouldn’t have gone to the salon, hahaha!
But it’s ok.
I will have to resume my dropping habits at 6PM tonight. More drops coming your way soon!

@ JESSIE:
Ganon ba Kuya? Dato-rati daw, nong di pa ako active sa EC dropping, madalas daw yong outage. Sana maayos nila yong problema. Pano naman di overloaded yong server eh almost 16, 000 kaya ang Entrecarders!

I didn’t know either. I wanted to power drop my own entrecard, but when I saw it, I said great, time to get off the computer.
How long does it take you to drop the 900 entrecard? 5 hrs?

@ AXIOBLOGGER:
Yeah right! AT least you had a break.
It takes me an hour and a half up to the maximum of 2 hours for 300 cards dropped on blogs but if I get to read, digest and comment to interesting blogs, It takes me a lot longer to finish.
It’s impossible for me to finish dropping in 5 hours to 900 blogs because I work for a living on a 8-5 basis.

@ MANILENYA:
Hahaha! Ang sipag mo naman, Sis! Working on a weekend???
@ ISH:
Actually, I have been dropping cards to more than a thousand blogs daily. I have 3 personal blogs which I do not fail to drop 900/daily, but I have been invited to contribute for the EC 4 Religion site and I volunteered to do the dropping task for that particular blog.
I’ve also dropped a few cards for my friend, Uncle Che’s blog, as he has been having problems on his internet connection lately, but I couldn’t complete the 300 a day limit because I need to report for work, too. LOL!
@ DEL:
Hi Thira! Welcome back!
@ GLITCHLINE:
Yeah, I’ve noticed you haven’t been pretty much active as of late. Before cut-off time here, I’m already done with my dropping chores, hehe!

I am wondering how long does it take you to drop 900 cards. I am thinking to sign up, but wondering whether I have the time to drop 300 cards everyday.
