You've underestimated doing round where I live - it's more like £15M and 750 years.

GOOD IDEA. THERE MIGHT BE A PROBLEM WITH THE POLICE THOUGH. ESPECIALLY USEFUL FOR PROMOTING OUR NEW PARENTAL CONTROL SOFTWARE WHEN WE LAUNCH IT.

I think you'll find this is due to Freeola tightening up their sign-up process, which stops the spammers from being able to post so easily.

It's a testament to the forum's unpopularity in that there hasn't been one of those 'Get Rich Quick' spam threads in a while.
Nobody will wear that t-shirt.
The only problem with the t-shirt idea is that it would have to have to look good enough to wear and not just to chuck in a draw.
Maybe if it was introduced, have a prize once a month for the best photo of someone wearing the t-shirt in public, this would encourage some people at least to wear it out and about.

Heres my suggestion:
Runs on the same lines of pb's suggestion of a free t-shrit but freeola only send out free t-shirts to current members of the forum who have won a gameaday and the t-shirt shall read "I've won one can you?" on the front and on the back "Freeola.com Gameday £30 voucher" so aslong as your not wearing a coat to cover up the back people in the street will be intruiged.
