    Helloooo!

    Well, I just noticed that I'm VERY close to hitting 1,000 posts...

    Well, I figure I may as well celebrate somewhat and throw a giveaway at Neofriends!

    My problem, is I'm not sure what kind of contest to run! So if you have any ideas on a type of giveaway/contest I could run please post your ideas here. With the ideas I think are good, I'll put up a poll and get people to vote. Whichever one receives the most votes will more than likely be the one I go with!

    This giveaway will be in Neopoints only, or neopets items. I've not yet decided whether it will be limited to certain level users, or open to everyone. all those details will be decided in the up coming days/week.

    give hundreds of millions of nps to all users who have 3 separate words in their name starting with an R

    or hold some form of trivia and award prizes for first correct answer(i could help you provide questions, of course thus nulling myself from contest but would be fun anyways), in level 3 section, or in level 1 section, which limit you choose

    on that note...why is there no level 2 section?

    Level 1, level 3 and level 5 all have their own boards... then of course mods get one too.

    I think it is like that due to the old rank schemes? But I wasn't around for that so I don't know.

    I'm not giving "hundreds" of millions way... but there will be quite a few million given.

    Trivia is okay... but its too easy to Google answers. And I cannot go off first to post because my time is different to other users, thus would be giving an unfair advantage to users who are similar to me.

    you could set up a single trivia question, and make it difficult and unable to be googled, or some form of lenny conundrum style riddle, and have people mail you their answers, and after a certain time period split the prize between all correct answers

    I'm no good at those type questions :p

    And the prize will be hard to split.. I'd have to think of a new prize :p

    Anyone else got suggestions?

    Caption Contest is an okay thing... But I need multiple winners :p And how would I judge?

    Mystery Pic eh... Can't be neopets based ;) Some users here would have an unfair advantage.

    Riddles are always fun.

    You could find a book of riddles or something that has ones that hopefully wouldn't be too easy to Google.

    Or, you could post a very simple question and ask for the most creative answer.
