Today we kick off our official TacomaForum.com Launch Contest. :thumbsup:
We have a great base of members and posts (more than I expected at this point) but now it's time to kick it into high gear and get this site started off on the right foot.
What's the point of this contest?
First and foremost, we want to have some fun and have an excuse to give away some great stuff. You'll see that with this contest everyone who tries wins something. But there is another purpose for this contest. We want to drive traffic to the site and get people posting. Forums are only as good as their members and content and that's what we are trying to build.
We need your help!
PLEASE, tell your friends about this contest and spread the word any way you know how. Then get involved on the site and visit and post often. Thanks!
OK, enough intro... on to the contest :thumbup:
How does the contest work?
Every post made in the month of April counts as an entry. Each post is given a unique post ID number by the forum software. At the end of the month we will use Random.org to pick a winning post ID number for the grand prize. Stickers and T-Shirts will be given out based on the number of posts you have during the month. Pretty Simple right?
Prizes for Posts
Once you hit 20 posts in the month of April you have your choice of stickers.
Hit 30 posts in the month of Apirl and I'll send you one of each.
Hit 50 Posts EDIT: Now just 35 Posts!!! in the month of April and get a free T-Shirt (and both stickers)
I have 74 T-Shirts to give away but sizes are limited.
Once you hit the number of posts you need for a free T-Shirt or Sticker please PM me your name and address and I'll ship it out. PLEASE format the name and address the way it should look on an envelope because all I do is copy and paste and if you type it incorrectly chances are you aren't going to get your prize. You must PM me your info no later than May 15th, 2013 to qualify.
Grand Prize
Each and every post you make in the month of April will count as an entry towards the grand prize and improve your odds of winning. So, post often :thumbsup:
A warning about "Junk" posts
I've been pretty clear about my motives here. We want to build high quality content on this site to attract new members and get current members more involved. Please don't post junk to get your post count up. For example, don't start an off topic thread where people count or say "Hi" to every new member without any real content in the post. This is sort of a grey issue but please use your head and help us keep this site high quality. We reserve the right to disqualify any junk posts if they are selected as a winner.
Let's Review
I know I said a lot so here are the basics.
Every post you make in the month of April will count as an entry towards prizes and a grand prize drawling.
20 Posts = Free Sticker
30 Posts = 2 Free Stickers (one of each type)
50 Posts = Free T-Shirt and Stickers EDIT: Now just 35 Posts!!!
Grand Prize - The more posts you make the better your chances of winning. There will only be one winner.
Good luck everyone. Any questions?
