Activity Overview People guessed tweet to unlock code i.e “What I want is what I see” within an
hour. Prize was given out the person who guessed it right!
We started with first ever live hangman game on Twitter to give away remaining prizes!
The words of our hangman game promoted features (RTB’s) of new eBay!
The contest gained awesome momentum and generated great interaction and we were soon gave away 5 prizes!
We still had 2 prizes to give away, hence our last sentence of hangman was, “eBay Loves You”
This got us good number of positive mentions and people praised the activity!
