How about the top 50 posters or something, then random draw from that? The barracuda give-away contest produced new members (Giraffe Hunter, etc...) so I think it's worth a shot at a top-poster drawing.

How about we allow anyone with 1000+ posts and above to participate in the contest, give them maybe 2 weeks or something to catch up if they are below 1000, and randomly select from there. I think that would be good.

Hmm.. That sounds good. As long as we don't go for the top poster again.

I think we should just set a minimum limit. Let's say 1000 in 2 weeks? Is that okay? Or is that too much/little?

But that also present another problem, anyone above 1000+ wouldn't bother posting extra already...

Hahah.. That's true.

Hmm.. How about Ishtim's idea? That's a good one too.

How about the top 25 in 2 weeks? Or should it be the top 50? Do we even have so many active posters?

But Top 25 means that only 25 out of 3000 only got chance to win the prizes...

LOL! If we are taking the top 25, 1/2 are not even active anymore! Including Tungstenboy, drab etc... I think Top 50 would be better...

Eh, no-no.. Top 25 posters in the next 2 weeks. Meaning we count only the number of posts in the next 2 weeks. NOT the total number of posts.

Oh...that's good idea I think. But that would mean that people like Viper007Bond may appear again for this contest and disappears...well at least he did come back recently.

Okay, then I will start working on the contest. But we are agreed that it's good to have top 25 (and not more or less?) in the next 2 weeks (not 1 or 3 weeks?)?
