I know I said I would post totals on Monday, but I decided to keep things interesting with this contest that I would wait until next Tuesday, this way its not discouraging to new people or anything of that sort. Keep the posts coming because it is a fairly close race.
I wouldn’t be in a hurry to give away money 
Well, its already spent… so I’ve technically already given it away.
Im glad you took my advice, gotta keep things interesting

I know that you did the contest to bring people to the forum, but i’m really happy that i find a website/forum with a tech community. That has more value then those gift…
I enjoy giving back to the communities in any way. Yes the gift cards are partially to bring more people in, but, the way I look at it is that when there are more active members there is more knowledge flowing around and that benefits everyone. To be completely honest I’m glad we haven’t grown a ton because of this contest mainly because that would lead me to believe that everyone was just here for the cards, not the community or the knowledge we can provide to each other.
