Once a month, we will be emailing everyone via the Newsletter with the time & date that the contest will be going on.  There will be a 2 hour window where you must be logged into the board in order to be in the contest.  And yes, we realize that webmasters are in many different time zones, so the time frame that we choose will be random (which means if one of us has to get up at 3 AM, then so be it)

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.  How much money?  Well, that depends on how many people are logged in :)  You will get $1 for every member that is logged into the board when we randomly choose from the list of those that are logged in.

So, using this as an example:

if you won, you'd get $43!  And we think this is a very low number, since the screen shot was taken at 8 AM EST on a Saturday & we hope there will be a lot of people logged into the board for the contest :)
(*NOTE* We will not be going by the "Currently Active Users" total, but only by the number of members that are logged in)

Now, here's the catch - and it's a small one - you have to post within 15 minutes of us announcing that you've won in order to claim your prize.  This will take care of the "logged in but not paying attention" people :)  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.

We will announce the winner in a new thread in the General Business Knowledge forum so that everyone will see it.

That's it!  You'd then PM us your info & we'd pay you via check (sorry, that is the only payment option available to us at this time)

So, stay tuned & read the Newsletter! :)
