Passed 100k POSTS! WIN A FREE GAS CARD contest. Excellent odds!

[MetroMPG]

I'm a nerd for the stats, so I was very happy to watch our post count tick past the 100,000 mark last month.

As a way of celebrating the milestone and saying thanks to the members, Tim (Daox) & I decided to give away $100 in FREE gas cards (in the form of ten $10 cards) over the next 3 months.

UPDATE: contest continues in December with one $10 prize.

• September: 3 cards to be given away
• October: 3 cards
• November: 4 cards

UPDATE: contest continues in December with one $10 prize.


TO QUALIFY: (it's super easy)

1) All you have to do is post in the forum, a minimum of 10 posts per month, in any threads.

2) If you make 10 posts or more, each of those posts count as a ballot in that month's draw.

3) At the end of the month we'll randomly draw names to win.

(For non-US members, instead of a gas card we'll make other arrangements for a prize equal in value to $10 USD.)


Your odds of winning are ridiculously good!

We're not a giant forum. Around 200 members check in each month, and many of are just lurkers. Also, lots of active members post less than 10x per month. Do the math and you'll see the odds in this contest are pretty decent.


GOOD LUCK, and thanks for being part of the AveoForum's 100k milestone!

10 posts per month huh? Okay...I'll try!

Great forum for Aveo owners. Just used the forum a couple of weeks ago to help me change my timing belt etc. Thanks!

I've only joined in the last month or so. Can I still be eligible?

[MetroMPG]

Sure thing.

You guys should make a garage entry for your cars too. That counts as a post.

Garage empty: add car

I added a notice about the contest to the top of each forum page. You can cancel it (prevent it from showing on every page) by clicking the "X" in the top right corner of the announcement box.

3 more days left this month!

Your odds of winning are currently RIDICULOUSLY EXCELLENT if you post 10 times or more before the end of the month.

A quick look at the stats shows we'll have about 400 posts in September, and so far 96 members have posted at least once since the start of the month.

But if you want to win, it gets even better: most members have not posted 10 times. To date, only 6 members have at least 10 posts this month.

Which means your odds of winning are currently 1 in 2. (6 members, 3 prizes)
