haugpatr 972 Posted January 20, 2012 Report Share Posted January 20, 2012 (edited) A couple months ago I was the receipient of one of Bridis' prizes from the product review contest, (Thanks again Bridis!) Now it is time for me to pay it forward as well. I am trying to figure out what to give away and thought I would try a poll. I am going to offer up around $50 worth of stuff. I could try and find one item in that range and have one winner or I could give out smaller items and possibly have 2nd and 3rd place prizes. What do you all think? I need to figure out what this contest will be still, but have decided it will be open to contributors only, (this only costs $5) It is also my hope that the winner/winners of this contest can also pay it forward as contests are fun, and people like free stuff!

I like the idea of 1 big prize, personally. Unfortunately, Fortunately, I don't have a wife to share! How about the grand prize is an OEM Saiga-12 buttstock, (winner pays shipping costs)?

RED333 1,025 Posted January 21, 2012 Report Share Posted January 21, 2012 Ammo, This is THE Saiga12 forum, box of 10 round ball like this. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
vulcan16 971 Posted January 21, 2012 Report Share Posted January 21, 2012 Why not open the contest up to all, and not just contributors? Bridis did his give away with no stipulations , so why not continue the trend? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Bridis did his give away with no stipulations , so why not continue the trend? With recent contests by others, there were problems with winners not claiming their prizes and it was re-draw after re-draw. This is the same stipulation that Chile used in his contest. The other benefit is it helps promote the forum as well. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
vulcan16 971 Posted January 21, 2012 Report Share Posted January 21, 2012 TAC had multiple prizes with well over 200 entries. I did a basic hat pic and ran entries for over 10 days. 130 entries and the prize was claimed within 24 hrs. Hell, I even paid shipping. To each their own. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TR Young 175 Posted January 21, 2012 Report Share Posted January 21, 2012 Ammo, This is THE Saiga12 forum, box of 10 round ball like this. I'm casting my vote for 'other' and agreeing with this. Or a month with RED333's avatar girl. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Nailbomb 10,221 Posted January 21, 2012 Report Share Posted January 21, 2012 glad to see this was a success in some form or another... Its still going in some form or another. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
G O B 3,516 Posted January 21, 2012 Report Share Posted January 21, 2012 I vote for one prize, mainly to make it a lot easier for you. Not excited about a factory buttstock, most of us have at least one of those hanging around already. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
haugpatr 972 Posted January 22, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 22, 2012 Hoping to have the contest up within the next week, I am trying to come up with a fun contest with a decent prize/prizes, I'll dig up something cool! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

G O B 3,516 Posted January 22, 2012 Report Share Posted January 22, 2012 4 factory butstocks sounds like the legs for a new coffee table! 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
unclejake 428 Posted January 22, 2012 Report Share Posted January 22, 2012 Bubba, if you are the one providing the prize, then it's up to you as to what it might be! (Course, I agree with the others bout the OEM buttstock) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
haugpatr 972 Posted January 22, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 22, 2012 Of course the OEM buttstock is a joke, as it would be about the most worthless prize I could imagine, we all have one of those! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
