So if I understand correctly the starting point/ computing start is as of today for NEW CONTRIBUTIONS.
For example I had 20,000 something at the end of Dec 2015, now Im at 30,000+ it’s July 12, so theorethically Im covered for six month (as I subbed ca 10,000 from Jan to July 11, 2016).
When I type min 500 subs from July 12 till Dec 31, 2016 (?) my QC benefit continues till June 30th 2017(?) and so forth?? Is this correct?
Thanks for feedback.
Hi, that’s what I was curious about too and looked up my profile, it simply says “overachieved” …
It’s somewhat funny 
Well if I wouldn’t follow the discussions here, I wouldn’t know about this.
I never got this QC Newsletter.

the QC newsletters come into your email box, not in your vikimail box, check again, I got mine.
That is correct.
Everyone who is a QC as of yesterday has a 180 days (i.e. six month) validity for their QC status, which expires in early Jan 2017.
As long as you contribute at least 500 subtitles or segments combined between now and early Jan, your QC status will be renewed for another 180 days, until sometime in Jul 2017. And if you contribute another 500 between Jan 2017 and Jul 2017, you get another 180 days until Jan 2018. And so forth.

@armchairdude I have a question too as a Gold QC from Europe. So far most QC Exclusive promo’s where for US only so it was useless for me. Does Viki plan to have things we all can sign up for in the future? I find it a bit unfair towards QC’s outside the US when we get a PM or something that we can get free movie tickets or whatever and then it’s for US only. Yes I understand Viki cannot pay for a flight and stay too but still it would be nice if there is more for ALL QC’s.

Hi @dudie thank you for raising the question. We understand your concern and we are actively looking for ways to accommodate users in regions outside of U.S for our future campaigns. Stay tuned!

Maybe there should be an event in a major place of each region continent/region for all the volunteers that are working around the world. I know it seems a bit impossible, but it’s just an idea. (shrugs)
North America - A major city in either USA or Canada.
Central America - Mexico
South America - Brazil, Venezuela, Peru, Argentina, Columbia, etc…
Europe - France, Britain, Germany, Spain, Italy, Ukraine, etc.
Middle East - Dubai / Turkey
Asia - China, Japan, S. Korea, or Russia.
Oceanic - Australia / New Zealand
Africa - South Africa
I don’t know if I should put Russia in Europe or Asia, but geographically, it’s more in Asia, so I put it in Asia. I do realize that the average Russian doesn’t look very “Asian”, though.

@dudie,
Don’t feel too bad. Even though I live in the US, all those promo events are held in the cities that are too far from me anyway. I was invited to a special screening of Dramaworld, held in CA before it was uploaded to Viki, and there was no way I’d purchase a plane ticket and get a hotel room to attend it! 
This is not to say all the volunteers from other countries do not deserve any special promotions. I hope Viki will do special promotions for those who live in other countries soon.

I would like to point out that there are perhaps technical discrepancies on behalf the subs counter and the date when it was implemented. Please look into this discussion topic what it is about, thank you.

I tried browsing the forums but couldn’t find anyone else like me…
My QC status shows just fine but it didn’t auto apply the viki pass or give me a code. Contacted CS days ago and got a “looking into it” and then nothing. Meanwhile I have 28000 contributions and will have to pay if I want HD and no ads.

@mizzkitty do you have a screenshot of the vikipass setting? mine looks like this and the only access I don’t have is for vikipass Exclusive dramas… I can tell if I have HD since im on my tablet but no ads at all… 
Mine looks pretty much exactly like yours.
I mostly cast from tablet to a Chromecast and I get ads plus definitely lower res. It’s not usually that fuzzy. And yeah, no access to exclusives either, obviously.

Im watching from android tablet in chrome as well but not via the App because I wouldn’t be able to use the editor (my pc crashed), so I have no ads just one video resolution but no VP exclusives, check your email box kris just sent a mail like 30 min ago. These following dramas can NOT be accessed by any QC due to the license restriction through the media contender:
Due to licensing issues, we’ve just been informed that there will no longer be QC access for the following titles:
- Uncontrollably Fond
- My Unfortunate Boyfriend
- Tomorrow’s Cantabile
- Heirs
You don’t need to do anything about the VP in settings… just wait for the staff… hopefully they will fix it this week.

That’s not good. I checked the list of subbers all are Canadians or Americans for UF. The Korean can’t get in either. She’s in KOREA. We are trying to find European segmenters. Goodbye subtitles.

Well, darn. Don’t know if posting on the forums make them check you faster or if my timing is just great, but just got an email that my Viki Pass is now active! 
I really feel for the entire UF team, since that’s the only active project on the list. I mean, it’s not even Europe that has access, only some countries. The open access is soooo limited. Something extraordinary must’ve happened because Viki is aware most Kor-Eng translators are from North America.
Fingers crossed it gets resolved soon. Meanwhile I guess segmenting can be done, as you mentioned.
