Our previous babbling contest was so much fun, we decided to run another one! As athletes from around the globe gather to compete in the Olympic Winter games, we want to see if we can break out own TCS record of babbling this month
The record of the last thread was 741 posts, let's see if this time we can make it to a round 1000!
How to Win
It's simple - just post away! Interact in the thread and have fun, and you could just win if you post certain posts in the thread.
To win, you have to be the one making one of these posts: #250, #500, #750 or #1000.
Your post has to meet the contest rules, as detailed below. It if doesn't, it will be disqualified and the prize will move on one post (for example, if post #500 doesn't meet the contest rules, we'll choose post #501 instead).
Make post #250 to win: a 3 months forum membership! Won by @GCat
Make post #500 to win: a 3 months forum membership + a $20 Amazon gift card! - Won by @GoldEye
Make post #750 to win: a 6 months forum membership + a $20 Amazon gift card! won by @catbehaviors
Make post #1000 for the grand prize: a 6 months forum membership + a $40 Amazon gift card + a TCS Tote bag - won by @JTbo
To make things fair and fun, a single member can win up to two prizes in this contest, but no more than two. If a member has won two prizes already, he/she will be more than welcome to participate, but if they end up the next winning post, we'll move up one post to choose another winner.
1. Minimum of 15 words per post.
Don't bother with counting words. Just make sure your posts are longer than one line and you should be ok.
2. Proper English.
Please don't just hit randomly at your keyboard. No gibberish allowed and as with other posts on the site, try to avoid texting abbreviations.
3. Comprehensible posts.
Your posts can be drivel, but they still need to make sense. Avoid using automated text generators. It's a babbling thread, but we still want to see communication with your fellow members.
4. Original posts only.
Please do not copy and paste text from another source. Not even from this site. Not even if you were the author. Just write something fresh for this thread.
5. No consecutive posts. You can't add a reply if yours is the last post in the thread. If anyone starts talking to themselves to speed things up, they risk getting banned from this thread.
The contest ends on midnight of February 28th, or once we reach 1000 posts. Whichever comes first.
Let's get the thread rolling! Good morning posts and positive thoughts to start this off with are very welcome! Just make sure they follow the rules and contain more than 15 words.
Good luck!
