[FAQ] All About Oodles

How do you earn Oodles?
You can do the question of the day, GSN Live questions, Big Saturday Night questions, or a question on every game.

What do you mean, a question on every game?
If you go to GSN's Free Games page, located here http://www.gsn.com/cgi/free/list_all.pl, you can click on each game and do a question on it for 10 Oodles.

What are the prizes? How long's it take to get good prizes?
A $10 Amazon.com gift certificate can be obtained in about two or three days with 1700 Oodles. The prizes page is located here: http://www.gsn.com/oodles/prizes.html

When do new questions appear?
The question of the day and the game questions update every day at midnight EST. The GSN Live questions typically update every 30 minutes from noon to 6PM EST, and the Big Saturday Night questions usually update every 30 minutes from 8PM to 11PM EST.

It seems like it would take forever to answer these questions.
I have created an answer database, which can be accessed at http://nick761.mango12.com/oodle/

How does your answer database work? How often is it updated?
The answer database uses answers contributed by anonymous members. It is often updated a few minutes after midnight and usually right after Live questions appear.

An answer isn't in your database!
Post it in the answer database topic and a contributor will probably add it as soon as possible.

What?!? The prizes are all out of stock!
The gift cards seem to go really fast, so once you see them in stock you should order immediately. We do not know when they are restocked.

Is this site legit?
Yes, it appears to be, as it's operated by a big TV network, GSN.

How long does it take to get prizes?
The GSN website says that it will take 4-6 weeks to get a prize. But the Amazon.com gift certificates are emailed in about one or two weeks, and other prizes are shipped much faster than 4-6 weeks.

Wait, do I have to watch GSN to do this?
Nope. The answer database contains all questions, even the ones that are from gameshows that aired that day on GSN Live.

Is there a bot?
Right now, casper made an excellent helper that automatically looks up answers to the questions for you using my database.

Is there a limit to the number of accounts I can have?
Yes. The website says one account per person and two accounts per household.

Is there a limit to the number of prizes I can order?
A post by one of the admins of GSN says that you can only order one prize per week.

Is there an address trick?
We haven't really looked into it because most people don't want this great site to be raped.
