NECK 14 Posted December 11, 2012 Share Posted December 11, 2012 An awesome giveaway! Unfortunately I will have no chance of getting up to Hokkaido this season, so I can't enter this one. Holding out for the Hakuba resorts, Moyoko, Nozawa and Shiga giveaways Link to post Share on other sites

hellyer 216 Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 I doubt there will be any freebees from Shiga - they didn't last season and this year they have discontinued what was an excellent website so I wouldn't like to be hanging by my goolies out a 4 story building waiting for free Shiga tix. Don't get me wrong, I love Shiga Kogen I just hope the owners can see that the SJ crew are not just looking for freebies but are providing excellent value for money in the publicity and exposure offered to a rapidly growing group of patrons (gaijin) It would cost me mega $ to get a similar measure of exposure in my resort sales business Link to post Share on other sites
SnowJapan Admin SnowJapan 178 Posted December 13, 2012 Author SnowJapan Admin Share Posted December 13, 2012 Sorry, but there will not be any Shiga Kogen ones. We have tried many times in the past but were never able to. This season they seem to be less enthusiastic still about promoting in English. Link to post Share on other sites
hellyer 216 Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 Poor business decision by them - thanks for trying Link to post Share on other sites

SnowJapan Admin SnowJapan 178 Posted December 21, 2012 Author SnowJapan Admin Share Posted December 21, 2012 This Giveaway is now closed. Winners will be noticed on Monday. Thank you to everyone who entered, and to Harmony Resorts for their support. Link to post Share on other sites
Mick Rich 78 Posted December 21, 2012 Share Posted December 21, 2012 Sorry, but there will not be any Shiga Kogen ones. We have tried many times in the past but were never able to. This season they seem to be less enthusiastic still about promoting in English. I wonder why that is? Surely they can't be making so much profit to not bother trying to attract non-Japanese-speaking punters!? Can't understand it! Link to post Share on other sites
SnowJapan Admin SnowJapan 178 Posted December 21, 2012 Author SnowJapan Admin Share Posted December 21, 2012 How should I put this... you know, when you've got way too many things to do and nowhere near enough time to get them done, the only way to go is to prioritise. We'd rather focus our energies on people/places who are interested in the help and co-operation than try chasing up ones who aren't... We have more than 250 tickets to other places, so they and hopefully hundreds of our readers will benefit. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

SnowJapan Admin SnowJapan 178 Posted December 26, 2012 Author SnowJapan Admin Share Posted December 26, 2012 I have just sent out 10 emails to provisional winners. Congratulations! If we don't hear from them within a week, we will try to re-allocate any missing tickets. Once the tickets have been sent out, I'll start up a new thread announcing the winners and for those winners to hopefully post some pics into once they have been. Thank you to everyone for entering, sorry not everyone could win. Don't let not winning stop you from posting pics and writing resort reviews of course... it all helps everyone. And many thanks to Harmony Resorts as well. Link to post Share on other sites
SnowJapan Admin SnowJapan 178 Posted December 26, 2012 Author SnowJapan Admin Share Posted December 26, 2012 OK I already got one bounced back to me as an invalid email address. Top Tip if you want to win something from us - don't register to the Forums with a dummy throwaway email address or at least make sure that your registered email address is valid. Sorry, but we are not going to spend our time chasing people up who don't have a valid email address with us. Link to post Share on other sites
