Well, maybe you could have said that you will not be holding their hands throughout the contest and you won’t be waking them up every morning for school.

I have amended the rules slightly on my "hard copy" for future contests, to stress the fact that you will need to follow the threads to know when rounds begin and end.

Administrator CGC Mike Posted February 12, 2022 Author Administrator Share Posted February 12, 2022 As far as the prizes, I am not surprised there was a low number of donations. I think this will gradually improve as we have more of these contests. Regular board members will be given the opportunity to sign up before any outside announcements occur. I can only handle so many people so, there may not be a need for any outside advertising. This is our first contest. It will be my goal moving forward to work out any kinks that exist.

Bird Posted February 12, 2022 Share Posted February 12, 2022 (edited) I never thought about donating a prize...I am new to these contests (but wouldn't have donated one anyway). CGC sponsored contest, cgc can provide the prizes as far as I am concerned. I don't typically add my money/property to a marketing campaign; I see this like a win a ticket to the Super Bowl contest. Maybe I'll feel differently after participating in a few. But it drives people to the boards and is part of a business model so I didn't even consider adding to the promotion. A contest started by a boardie, that is different than a marketing promotion. I understand the community stepping up to make that fun and attractive to others to participate. Still didn't know others were expected to donate a prize though. I know I am naive though, so maybe I just missed the clues Edited February 12, 2022 by Bird Point Five 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
