1st Random Logged In Member Contest Will Be Monday!

[Greenguy]

Our 1st Random Logged In Member Contest (http://www.greenguysboard.com/contests/randommember.html) will take place this Monday Dec 13th at 6 PM EST

To see what time that is in your time zone, check out this page:
http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/converter.html

We will be sending out a reminder via the board's email system on Monday about 1 hour before the contest begins.

We have also adjusted the rules for the contest & added the following:
If the 1st person does not claim their prize within 15 minutes, we will choose another member & continue to do so until someone claims the prize. The amount of the prize will not change, so whatever the number was when we picked the 1st person, that will be the amount that we give away.
So there will be a winner!

For a complete list of the rules, please look at the Random Logged In Member Contest (http://www.greenguysboard.com/contests/randommember.html) page |bananna|

Go here:
http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/converter.html

On the top part, put in the time & date of the cotnest:
December 13 2004 18/6 PM 00

Change the 1st location to:
U.S.A. - New York - New York

Then change "Select place to convert to" to your location & press the "Convert Toime" button

So, for you I'm guessing it'd be:
Australia - Queensland - Brisbane

So it'd be Tuesday, December 14, 2004 at 9:00:00 AM

You and me both :)

Perfect! That's 12pm CET, just when I start to work :D

If I'm very gentle I think my mum is going to allow me to stay up that long... :D

just kidding, but I do hope you choose someone in the first hour ;)

[Alphawolf]

If you want my opinion (and I know you just cannot sleep until you get it) I'd have stated the winner will be revealed SOMETIME between the hours of 6PM-8PM EST.

This would allow more people to login at once and become prime advertising time since people that aren't regulars here would probably come here for the prize.

You could have a sponsor pay a bit more to be promoted heavily during those time periods where the most exposure would happen.

As I've understood the rules, next time period would be different.

There will be a 2 hour window where you must be logged into the board in order to be in the contest.

At some time during that 2 hour time frame, we will randomly choose one of the members that is logged into the board & give them some money.

Unless, as usual, I'm not getting my point across? :D

[Alphawolf]

Oh. You want us to like...read your stuff? ;)

LOL.

genuis idea!

I listen tot he radio show archives when I get some time, but only try to get to Jim's jokes 'cos the rest is just filler when you get down to it. :D

[Thumbler]

So just to clarify my clouded thinking, when you said 'at 6pm' you really meant 'between 6pm and 8 pm' - yes?

[Greenguy]

Yes, at some time between 6:00 PM & 8:00 PM EST on Monday, we will pick a winner & base the prize on the amount of members logged into the board.

Hell, I might even close the board at 5:45 for 5 min or so so that everyone has to log back in :D

[Linkster]

That would be hard to do since you posted that 6 minutes after you were going to "close" the board |jester|
|couch|

[Greenguy]

My calendar says today is Friday, not Monday :D

[Linkster]

So - I cant read either |jester|

[Alphawolf]

So, you will pick a winner at 6 and 8PM?

Well, yeah - see, Greenguy is skewing the contest towards those who can actually read and comprehend, which seems grossly unfair considering that the target audience is adult webmasters. |jester|

[Useless]

I WON!
I WON!
I WON!
|bananna|

Sorry. Just testing the system. I'm preparing my acceptance speech. Which would you like, the long or short version?

[Wazza]

So us invisible people - we can't win right?

In fact, the total member number does go by who's visible & invisible, so everyone gets counted :)

That is a really good idea, but for now, we'll stick to the current rules.

Actually it would be brilliant the first time. It will teach them to be here early!

[terry]

[SortLinks]

if I win I buy Tommy's PID for sure
else I will think :(

Looks like its a good idea to do pay submitions, right Tommy? I bet he already earn 5k thanks to it!

[Alphawolf]

Well, there should be a 'would you hit it' thread here then!

Would you hit it? (http://images.google.com/images?q=Maria%20Bartiromo&hl=en&lr=&newwindow=1&c2coff=1&safe=off&sa=N&tab=wi)

It's well worth it. He spoke about it on the radio show a few weeks back:

Live chat? ...SOMETHING.

[jvastine]

It seems like this contest is a good way to stress test the board - seems the lag time is getting longer...

[Mark_E4A]

I agree with ya there Javastine
.

[jvastine]

yes, the board is definitely slowing down under the strain! |sad|

[Useless]

Originally posted by jvastine

Not for me. It's performing the same now as it does at 6am, from my end anyway.

[Porneek]

hard time for dialup users (if anyone is still using it)

|pcsucks|

[Cheerful1]

Actually the load times for the board don't seem changed to me. I am dial up user and downloading content just now :)

[jvastine]

well, I'm using a 4mbs broadband connection & the response time is a bit slower then normal...what can I say?

[Greenguy]

Shit thru a duck my friends, shit thru a duck :D

[GeorgeTH]

Originally posted by jvastine

[kak_azn]

This is a cool idea! lot's of people I see here! |bananna|
