| Re: vBulletin Setup Scorching Summer Contest 2008 - Over $$750 in Prizes!!! Hey Brandon, I respectfully suggest you consider adding a third place prize of some sort. I know Caddy and Arny have been working on this contest just as hard as I have, and it would be nice to see whoever comes in third get some kind of reward too, so they (or I!) won't feel like they wasted their time. Plus it might galvanize some of the other members too |

| Re: vBulletin Setup Scorching Summer Contest 2008 - Over $$750 in Prizes!!! Um, I just noticed something... when I went back to the last score update to check my progress I saw my score then was 5860...
then:
Soliloquy 5860
Caddyman 4290
ArnyVee 2610
Brandon 2178
Blake2181 804
Yogesh Sarkar 662
Rocket 442 640
Greek76 563
glennybee 490
Dave 434
now: (not counting recipes, for which I have 4 or 5)
Soliloquy 5761
Caddyman 4711
ArnyVee 3159
Brandon 2659
glennybee 1053
Dave 1027
are you sure you added my score up correctly? I don't know if the first one is too high or the second too low, but I'm pretty sure I made some posts after August 15 |

| Re: vBulletin Setup Scorching Summer Contest 2008 - Over $$750 in Prizes!!! I wouldn't mind there being a 3rd place prize
Brandon, where do you sign up for the blogs? I want to be able to post my article once it's completed. |

about the points, I thought they seemed off too.. when I ran the script, it didn't show the largest on top like it said it should.
When I get back to the house, I'll see if I can run it again. |

| Re: vBulletin Setup Scorching Summer Contest 2008 - Over $$750 in Prizes!!! 2 questions
1) can we post our articles that we are submitting on the blog here on the forum to chat about
2) can we use a old post WE made here as a article in the article contest.
Thanks |

cheers |

| Re: vBulletin Setup Scorching Summer Contest 2008 - Over $$750 in Prizes!!! Everyone is doing great, I don't think we'll have any post after the 1st tho..lol everyone will be burnt out
I see a bunch of new threads popping up, which is awesome! but please do search for old threads, I've had to merge a few post with older threads. I would rather bump an old thread with good info, vs starting a new one.
Thanks, and Good Luck! |

| Re: vBulletin Setup Scorching Summer Contest 2008 - Over $$750 in Prizes!!! ya, I haven't checked the stats, but I think we increased the overall post count by 20-30%..lol
btw.. if only one person submits an article, then they get the full prize of 1000 points.. not just the 500 for 1st
and if two enter, I'll split the 3rd place among the 2. |

after making a thread, you DO NOT get points per reply in that thread? is that correct. |

| Re: vBulletin Setup Scorching Summer Contest 2008 - Over $$750 in Prizes!!! I think this contest is generating a lot of spam topics that otherwise wouldn't be created.
But that's just my view. |

| Re: vBulletin Setup Scorching Summer Contest 2008 - Over $$750 in Prizes!!! uh, I'm not sure I understand here. Threads aren't getting points for the replies posted to them, but if they don't have any replies you're going to disqualify them? |
