Title: Quick Question
Post by: cmonkey on October 14, 2003, 05:51:18 pm
Ok, I'm in a predicament.  I have the opportunity to give away some free prizes.  The problem is two-fold.  1.  They are from Universal Studios (tshirts and stuff about the new Cat in The Hat movie), so they have nothing at all to do with SpongeBob.  2.  It requires me to put up a link to some info about Cat-In-The-Hat, which is sort of advertising, but it only needs to be in one news post...  Sooo, what do I do.  Coo free stuff, while slightly becoming a pawn of advertising, or no free stuff, but remain 100% without advertising.  I need the answer quick, so tell me.

Meh, no one is going to mind if you advertise, because there are prizes. It's not that big of a deal anyway, and it's a cool way to give back to the people that visit your site everyday. I vote 'yay'.

I'll never add pop-ups or banner/button ads.  This is just going to be a text link.

I'm guessing he's going to not include those who haven't posted anything. If you look at the overall posters, and go to the last few pages, you will see quite a few people who have registered and don't have any posts. But I'm not sure, don't quote me. Well, if you want to quote me, go ahead. >_>

Some kind of game where you can win one of those free goodies would be neat. Possibly one game a week. Or maybe the winner of a trivia session. Of course its fun to give away stuff but if you have do something to win them it could be even more fun. :original:

Miles, you are truely a genius.  I'm going to give the 3 shirts to random forum members, while the hats go to the winners of trivia!  That way, it'll bring people to the forums and the chat!

Mail, but I might restrict the contest to only the US because of the insanely high international shipping charges.
