By the way - It's no good searching for the promotional thread. We deleted it so that our competitors can't get their sweaty mits on it.
There may of course still be other winners to this as every suggestion which is used within three months will win a prize.

Reddies - it's an old cockney expression for cash. Not credit cards or electronics. Anyway we want them back so that we can use them again.
Actually we might to electronic Reddies at sometime in the future but controlling it could be UTTERLY HORRENDOUS.

POWER OF THE SHEEP
> When a purchase is made on the site, the buyer recieves some raffle tickets. The buyer goes around his or her local area, selling these raffle tickets with a list of different prizes to be won.
Then - they put the money in their pocket, screw up the empty raffle books and disappear, never to be heard of again, saying "MAWAHAWAHA"
> Put eye-catching banners on main sites which a lot of people visit. THese sites are lycos, freeserve, aol, and cnet. Each of these sites get loads of hits a day and some of their traffic can be diverted to your site using the banners.
Anybody got any spare money to burn?
> Here's an idea Tony. You could stop giving away so many of your prizes away to the same people - i.e - ssxpro and that monkey with attitude bloke

So - you don't think it should be fair then.
"Best Contribution" it says. We shall fight for freedom, honour and peace in our time. "Best Contribution" it stays!

Huh - surely 6 pm to 6 pm. Rules are rules.

OK - er I dunno really. I've never won.
OK, OK - I think Ali should consider this (but I'm not sure we should do it).
