Make Someone Happy and Win a Patch


The ratio of views to ratings on any given Instructable are abysmal. Ratings encourage Instructable writers to write more Instuctalbes. I have 100 patches to give out to members who rate 10 Instructables, they have to be 'ibles you have not rated before now - so get back to me here and tell me you did it (I will believe you) and I'll send you a Thank You Patch (pictured below). This has the potential to make 1,000 'ible authors very happy.

I rated all 19 of your Ibles 5. If you don't have any more patches. It's okay. I would've rated most of them 5 anyway.

He is so cute!!!!!!!!!!1 I will come back after I have rated 10 people. No 11 one for good measure. I will try and find those who don't have any ratings.

I believe that was a spammer.....
Jul 10, 2011. 6:17 PMsunshiine says:
Yes, it was. I was told on another link. Don't spammers know no one like that?
Jul 11, 2011. 6:34 AMGoodhart says:
Many of them just try to get you "to their site" to sell you something, but some of them try to get you to their "infected" site.....
Jun 23, 2011. 3:42 AMsunshiine says:
Awesome! Thanks for the patch.
Jun 28, 2011. 7:54 PMostomesto says:
I did it. all 10, well 12 actually. i lost count twice so i did twelve haha.
Jun 22, 2011. 10:09 PMsunshiine says:
Okay! I made a lot of people happy! I had fun making them happy! I left comments and made them happy. I subscribed to a few also! This patch looks so cute!
Jan 17, 2011. 9:21 PMStephen Ritchie says:
Got 'em! I made people happy. Happy people are happy now.
Jan 7, 2011. 5:50 AMBatness says:
I always rate stuff, and try to comment too. :D I know it'd make me feel better to get some decent ratings, so I try to do that to others.

I'll be back after I comment/rate a few new 'Ibles!
Jan 7, 2011. 6:55 AMBatness says:
Thank you! :D
Jan 7, 2011. 6:14 AMBatness says:
I'm back! Did probably more than 10 just to be safe, and since I like doing it anyway. :D

(On another note, I've discovered that even though my cats are apparently too finicky for my first few batches of the treats I made using your Instructable, my friend's dog LOVES LOVES LOVES them! I added some lavender to a batch and they smell slightly better too! :D)
Nov 27, 2010. 12:23 PMacidbass says:
I have done it! and I have made a lot of people happy ( I rated 50 ibles 4.5)
Nov 26, 2010. 3:19 PMDr. Pepper says:
I did it too!
100 patches this time?

I did it! :-D
Aug 27, 2010. 11:00 AMseabananers says:
i just did it i hope there are some patches left
Aug 23, 2010. 3:06 AMmagiccowy says:
Yay i did it. i'm going back and rating things i'v done or wish i had done
Aug 23, 2010. 11:13 PMmagiccowy says:
Ah they're not that great. Mostly to the fact I write them instead of doing homework and i have next to no tools/materials. I want to make an instructable in the workshop at school which is pretty much my favourite place
Aug 25, 2010. 5:09 PMmagiccowy says:
I could have written up the trebuchet we made in engineering last term but its dismantled now. Also my class only has about 5 people that actually do anything at all
Aug 23, 2010. 8:42 PMknexsuperbuilderfreak says:

Aug 23, 2010. 10:49 PMknexsuperbuilderfreak says:
now ive rated like 20 some more lol
Aug 23, 2010. 4:41 PMNostalgic Guy says:
I got carried away & did about 20 :-) I will be sure to remember to rate many more in future after all I would like others to rate mine.
Aug 23, 2010. 9:42 AMWasagi says:
Success, although I didn't catch the "You haven't rated before now", well, there are 10 more non-unrated instructables....
Aug 23, 2010. 6:29 PMWasagi says:
Hooray!
Aug 23, 2010. 3:09 PMChrysN says:
I did!
Aug 23, 2010. 2:48 PMTitanTechRobotics says:
I rated 10! For some reason when I look at 'ibles I never think about rating them, but I will try to rate more often now. AI
Aug 23, 2010. 3:04 PMTitanTechRobotics says:
Thank you, I have never had an instructable featured before, and now I just got 4 within 5 minutes.  :)

I just did it. I'm going to try to rate Ibles more often. :-)
Aug 22, 2010. 4:45 PMAngryRedhead says:
More than 10! I'm definitely trying to be better about reading an Instructable and rating it. Baaah!
Aug 22, 2010. 1:12 PMKiteman says:
Good thread - I'm not telling how many I've rated recently.
Aug 22, 2010. 9:25 AMHiyadudez says:
I've rated them. Not just 10 random ones though, most of them that have inspired me in the past, and present =)
Aug 22, 2010. 8:07 AMzascecs says:
I usually either rate 5 stars or dont rate at all...

...Anyways, I just rated 10.
Aug 22, 2010. 7:49 AMpeguiono says:
I did it! :)
Aug 22, 2010. 7:21 AMkcls says:
I just rated ten of them! Great idea, by the way. Where did you get so many patches?

Aug 22, 2010. 4:52 AMJayefuu says:
I shan't do it right away, but I'll be back when I've rated 10 :)
Aug 22, 2010. 6:41 AMdombeef says:
