With the $1,000 contest (http://forums.coolest-gadgets.com/showthread.php?t=55) we have going you get 5 points for each link you place to CG. The way this works is going to be a bit manual. Any links that you get post in this thread saying where they are and the total number of links you have so far.

e.g. T0PS30 could post:
Total Links: 1
URL: http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?t=126492

then if he placed a link somewhere else he would post

Total Links: 2
URL: http://www.bbc.co.uk

I think that works and shouldn't be too time consuming to check (not that I think I'd really need to check).

How can we know that we are credited with the points?

You know because you trust the guy who runs the forum. It's only a freebie giveaway, even if he forgot your points it'd be OK because he owes you nothing.

I think I have 100K Co-op weight unused ;)

Maybe there should be some rules about what type of links people can throw at it to avoid abuse? For example I assume you wouldn't want 1000 link vault links.

Total links 1

You can trust me, honest guv. What I'll do is post a break down of who has got what when the contest closes. Everbodies last post in this thread should include the total number of links they have got.

Haha, no Co-op or Link Vault links please as they won't count and I haven't got time to be reading tiny links at the bottom of spammy sorry quality web pages.

With all due respect, it's a contest, so technically I'd think he does owe the winner something and to keep track of members points, which I know he will. :cool:

OMG so Admin is also into this contest? i dont think so ;)
Admins and Mods cannot be participants :p

Al
08-18-2006, 08:37 PM
I won't be competing as I've got to give you guys a chance ;)

These no mods here yet but when there are they would be allowed to compete as that's only fair. Colleen is an Admin but that's so she can tweak the skin if needs be so she's in the contest (not that I think you'd complain at that inclusion Amit ;)).

Hi Al,

I've posted several links from my blog to your CG blog since a quite long time ago - the first post linked to your blog is on December 2005 I think - before you start this competition or CG forum.

Do the links qualify for points in this competition? Thank you

Al

You only get points per site, otherwise you could stick a link in your sig and get 100s of points

The contest is really for new links and you only get 5 points for each different site, which site was it Lee?

The first link to your blog is the Medion Winnie the Pooh TV and DVD Player (http://lina-lee.com/blog/2005/12/27/medion-winnie-the-pooh-tv-and-dvd-player/). Also there are more after that.

The latest is the m300 GSM watch phone, which I think can qualify to get my 5 ;-)
