Wxchic Posted June 2, 2006 Share Posted June 2, 2006 Put me in, coach! I’m ready to POST today! It’s baseball season! And to celebrate, we are having a POSTING CONTEST for June! Here are the rules. For a HOME RUN you need to have 75 posts this month!! A HOME RUN will get you a $5.00 gift certificate to the boutique! Are you wanting to get a higher ERA? Do you want to be the hero of the game? Then get a GRAND SLAM! You will need 150 posts for that. Earn a $10 gift certificate to the boutique with a GRAND SLAM. Remember, you can only win ONE gift certificate. 75 posts up to 149 posts will get you a HOME RUN…150 or over gets you a GRAND SLAM. Your posts will start to tally at MIDNIGHT June 1st and end at MIDNIGHT June 30. We will keep track but we will NOT be able to update you so don’t ask… just KEEP POSTING! Get chatty ladies!!

gritstoner Posted June 2, 2006 Share Posted June 2, 2006 Yeah, I wasn't brave enough to take part in the last posting contest, but the Bingo has got me used to the idea now. Happy posting everybody. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DDecker Posted June 2, 2006 Share Posted June 2, 2006 Excellent, I am up for this. For the new posters, if you go to "my controls" up beside view new posts there is a little note pad doen by the bottom,where you can leave yourself a message. I just put the # of posts where I am right now so I can figure out how close I am as the end of the month comes nearer. I am at 195 so I want to get to 270 or 345 to get my giftcertificate. Good luck everyone and happy posting! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest jeninoregon Posted June 2, 2006 Share Posted June 2, 2006 I just scored some free scrapbooking mags off of freecycle yesterday! I am so excited. My back has been a little sore lately and it's tough sittin' in front of the 'puter, so I am going to read mags instead. Hope you guys have fun chatting! ~Jen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest watmuzzer Posted June 2, 2006 Share Posted June 2, 2006 I'm going to try this one. I had bingo too late twice last month so I'm going to try, but I've never been very chatty. I'm depending on the rest of you to come up with interesting subjects that I can join in on. Cyndie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest kanga Posted June 3, 2006 Share Posted June 3, 2006 I must admit on the last posting challenge I really racked up the points giving lots of love on all the Layouts that inspired me in the gallery - and I hope they were all appreciated - I know I really appreciated it when others comment on my LOs!

Just one question though, How do comments count towards the posting competition when they don't show up in the counter on the left? Does some poor soul have to manually tally them?

Guest WahineBina Posted June 14, 2006 Share Posted June 14, 2006 I just read about this contest last night, but didn't get to act on it until today. Since I hardly get time to read anything here--still a newbie--let alone post, I'll just see how everyone else does, although I'm willing to play. And baseball--cool; my fave team sport!!

Guest lisaedson Posted June 15, 2006 Share Posted June 15, 2006 Ohhh I didn't even know we were doing this again! It's nearly halfway through the month and I have no idea what my count was at on the 1st lol, but I guess I will be giving it a go, if I get a gift certificate that'll be great but if not it's no big deal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
