You are supposed to get a certain number of entries for each right answer. When I logout every day I have one amount of entries but when I log back in the next time the number of entries have decreased by like 30, 40 or even 50 entires. Every day it goes down. I know in the beginning they had a problem with the calculation of the referral entries, but I don’t think the webiste is working properly and I can’t find who to contact. Can you help?
