We've got about 310,000 registered users -- some of them create a user account to our site only to receive newsletter, some just to receive software update notifications, etc. All of the registered users were eligible to participate to the contest, not just those posting to the forums. I'd say only about one third of all of our users have ever posted anything to our discussion forums. You'd also have to remember that in addition of this English forum, we also have a DVD X Copy support forum and Finnish forum -- and all of these users were eligible to participate as well. We're planning to have a second competition within next few months, just need to harvest some good prizes again and hope to see even more users to participate
[bold]ONLY joking drD, hopefully you were amused. catchya andmerr [/bold] The fact that you can still post, means drD must have been amused!!! ROTFPML I missed the post for the winners, I must have a look for it. M
How about one of those gorgeous bolt actions made by Sako or Tikka? You're right there in Finland dRD maybe you can get a discount on one
[bold]Afterdawn thongs[/bold] But I bet all the moderators have them already (as part of their promotion packages)......LOL
Neph: I'd say most Finns would prefer Sako's assault rifle, as its quite familiar to all males (yup, got national service here) in here But getting a permission to hand out those as contest prizes...
you and your guns neph, and i bet you wouldnt find doing some finnish national service either.Hey, drD probably be able to organise that as a prize for ya, you know he is da boss!!!!
I would say, IMO, that you could have a few contests, including ones that are only for J.Members and up, one contest here, one for XCopy and one for Finnish forums etc. You could have one of the prizes be a 50 or 100 pack of TY (or similar) + or - R disks (Winner gets 5-10 days to have a say, then they get sent a random type if they did not respond) or something. I know that could get expensive if ya are awarding DVD-Burners and other expensive prizes. Thats your call dRD, I am just giving ya ideas. EDITED by Pop_Smith for grammar errors lol
@ dRD Just think if you gave away an assualt rifle you could make into Michael Moore's next film! Talk about excellent advertising @ Sir Baabaa You can borrow my AD thong if you want. The string is a little stained but it'll save you the trouble of breaking it in
Cheers, mate that does solve a problem. I never seem to win anything that I enter, this way at least I can enjoy one lifes small pleasures..........
