Jake, Referrals have to have been since August 1. Nothing for the contest counts prior to August 1.

AduraOwns, yes I got your PMs. Here's your breakdown:

1 Point for the PM Freebie
2 Point Link
1 Point bonus for using Preferred Link Text
2 Point Link
1 Point Bonus for using Preferred Link Text
2 Point Link
1 Point Bonus for using Preferred Link Text
1 Point Bonus for .edu Link
____________________________________
11 points total

Aduraowns · 08-03-2007, 09:01 AM

11 points, cool.

I get it kinda. 2 points per link basically with a bonus point if we use your words. another point if it's a .edu.

doesn't make sense to me why school pages and not using the name of the site in the link are good but whatever

we get a point for a referral and a big 5 point bonus if that person makes 10 posts

itsnot as complicated as it sounded at first.

Im gonna catch you merkurial!!!

Jake · 08-07-2007, 06:53 AM

So... how will this 'drawing' thing work? Will all the participating members names be put in a hat or something? lmao, i would love if someone got 100,000 points and then someone with 3 points got picked. And what if the same person wins 1st 2nd and 3rd? Or would you just pick another name if that happened?

TcG xCoN · 08-07-2007, 04:28 PM

If we submit this site to directorys with the anchor text "halo 3 videos" or whatever else you want will we get points?

MikeMcD · 08-08-2007, 02:29 PM

i have a script that will randomly pick a number the more points you have the more numbers you have. think of it like the nba lottery with the ping pong balls. every ping pong ball is a chance to win.

and if somebody gets 3 points they have 3 chances all chances are equal.

Jake · 08-08-2007, 02:31 PM

I dont know if im allowed to ask this, but... how many people have participated so far?

MikeMcD · 08-08-2007, 11:25 PM

Oh good. There are 5 people and 3 chances to win something. I like those odds!

id imagine theres more than 5. its just that hes been enjoying the local greenery so much that counting is quite a task for him.

MikeMcD · 08-09-2007, 08:52 AM

there are more than 5. just scanning down the list, it looks like about 25-30 people are in the running so far.

merkurial has the most points, there are 2 or 3 people close to him then there are a bunch of people with just a couple points.

MerKuRiaL · 08-14-2007, 09:07 PM

When will we know who won what?

And mike did you get all my PM's accounted for? I sent a few tonight as my last things for points. So dont forget to count those in for points. I sent it at 8:51 so its still the 14th :-D

MikeMcD · 08-14-2007, 10:11 PM

I've mentioned to Mike that I think we should get the winners by who has the most points. And he MIGHT do that for future contests. But this contest, points, and the luck of the draw decides the winner. If I get say 10 points, my name goes into the hat 10 times. Same rules for everyone else. Then he randomly picks out a name from the hat and that person wins. So the more points you have the better chance of winning you have.

Our first Membership Drive Contest is now over. Here are the winners:

1st Prize: Merkurial - Halo 3 Legendary Edition

2nd Prize: Zapple - Halo 3 Game

3rd Prize: MV Ivan - Recharge kit + Battery

Congratulations to the winners!

I'll need all of you guys to PM me with a mailing address. Obviously, the Halo Legendary and the Halo Games aren't available yet, but as soon as I get them in, they'll be on their way to you. The charge kit I can probably get out here in the next few days (it was actually supposed to already be here...).

I would very much appreciate it if all you guys that won would post a pic maybe with your new goodies when you get them (just so the boss doesn't think I snagged the prizes myself).

For those of you who didn't win this time around, don't worry. We're going to have another conetst soon with more great prizes. If you have any ideas for new contests or suggestions for prizes please let me know.

Thanks again,

-Mike
