  |
|
Bigbruin.com has a new contest for our forum members, and it features a handful of prizes from Everglide. Up for grabs in this contest we have:
ยป An Everglide g-1000 Professional Gaming Mouse
ยป An Everglide Titan MonsterMat Mouse Surface
ยป A pack of Everglide Mouse Glidez
Even if you know nothing about baseball, you can still compete in this contest. For two weeks there will be three randomly selected baseball games per day to make predictions on. All you need to do is enter your prediction for each team's final score in each game and then click "Make Predictions!!!" at the bottom of the page.
Games will run from July 29, 2006 until August 11, 2006.
Games will be queued up in two batches... Starting on July 25 you will be able to make your predictions for the week of July 29 through August 4. Starting on August 1 you will be able to make your predictions for the week of August 5th through August 11th. The window for making predictions gives you several days in order to complete your entries, but just be sure to get your predictions locked in prior to the time listed for each individual game! Once a game starts in the real world, you will be locked out from making a prediction on it in here!

Scoring:
ยป 5 points are awarded for correctly predicting the winner of each game.
ยป 5 bonus points (for a total of 10 points) are awarded for not only predicting the winner of the game, but for also getting the final score correct.
The winner of the contest is determined by which ever entrant has the most points at the end of play on August 11! If the contest should end in a tie based on points alone, the tie breaker will be determined by which ever contending entrant has the lowest point differential. (Point differential is calculated by taking the sum of actual scores as compared to the predicted scores over the course of the game).
Rules:
1. The contest is open from July 25, 2006 through August 11, 2006 (midnight eastern time).
2. To play you must be a registered member of the Bigbruin.com forum... Site Administrators are welcome to play but will not win.
3. One winner will be chosen based on the final score of the game.
4. At the end of the contest, the winner must provide their shipping address, and the prizes will ship out right away.
5. This contest is open to North American participants only, and shipping is included.
6. Rules subject to change.
Please post any comments or questions in this thread! And, please post any feedback on the format of the contest as I hope it goes well and can be used again for future contests!

Cool... Didn't announce it outside of the site yet, but I hope people are interested in this kind of contest... Even if you don't follow, or even like, baseball it should still be fun.
Please, post any questions or issues for me to address! I keep checking to make sure I got all the games, times, and teams right and hope all goes well! 
And - don't forget, next Tuesday the whole next week of games will be available for predicting! |

I have to give you some respect... this is the most original contest idea I have yet to see. If it was all your idea, you are a mastermind. I think this is not only very fair to everyone, but the prizes are well worth the research trouble.
Well done!  |
