caserri Posted March 9, 2008 Share Posted March 9, 2008 What do I get if I post number 10,000? Dave, I'll have to dig through the prize closet to see whats in there! Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caserri Posted March 10, 2008 Share Posted March 10, 2008 OK, After much digging around in the prize closet I thought I was going to come away with nothing but a few cobwebs and some moldy gumballs. But on my way out I stumbled upon a $30.00 gift certificate to A&A Global! So here is the deal! Who ever makes the 10,000th post on VENDiscuss gets $30.00 toward their next purchase at A&A Global. TERMS: Your post must be deemed a "quality post" That simply means there needs to be some substance to the post. Not just a smiley or an "OK" or even an "I WIN!" If there is a question as to whether your post is a "quality post" or not, it will be determined by myself and another member here on the board. The second member will be an un-biased member with no stake in the prize. Our decision will be final. If the 10,000th post is not a "quality post" the prize will be awarded to the 10,001st poster and so on. Winner will be given a code for a $30.00 credit at A&A Global, http://www.aaglobalind.com, You can use it for anything they offer but you will be responsible for payment of any amount in excess of $30.00. For example if you purchase a $25.00 box of stickers, and shipping is $7.00, you will be responsible for paying the additional $2.00. You will not receive credit for any unused portion of the prize if you do not spend $30.00. For example, If your order totals $25.00, you will not get a $5.00 credit for future purchases. Spend wisely. Good Luck!Steve PS: Sponsors and other providers. If you would like to donate items or services for future contests please email me at support@vendiscuss.com.

caserri Posted March 10, 2008 Share Posted March 10, 2008 Just an update to this... If the 10,000th post creates a new topic, (not a reply to an existing topic), the prize will be increased to $50.00! Same rules apply. Even the one about "quality posts" Please don't start a thread claiming to be the winner. Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lurker Posted March 10, 2008 Author Share Posted March 10, 2008 Ok Steve, That's a fantastic prize! I was just jokin', but OK. I can't wait... I'm really gonna try hard for # 10K. Good luck everybody! D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caserri Posted March 10, 2008 Share Posted March 10, 2008 I knew you were just joking but its been a while since we gave anything away and some have asked for more contests. I thought the event was significant enough to warrant a give-away. Thanks for the Idea Dave. BTW, Since you were the one who suggested it, you are not eligible for the prize. :shock: I'M KIDDING! Good Luck! Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Craig Craig, Were you here for the last contest? It was a bit more involved and took 2 weeks to get a winner but it was really fun. We gave away an Oak Vista 450, a stand, and a location. I'd love to run these more often so everyone make sure you patronize our sponsors and use our eBay links when you are buying something from eBay!

tedk Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 I hope we get to 10,000 soon. The nonsense postings are piling up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caserri Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 I hope we get to 10,000 soon. The nonsense postings are piling up! I agree Ted however I'm not sure why. These posts will not give anyone an advantage. number 10,000 will come when it comes. You just have to be patient and watchful of the count. It kind of reminds me of a 2 minute drill in football. It's all about clock management. Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caserri Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 Are there any odds on T Bird Johnny pulling in the 10,000 post? Are you looking for a little side action there Beer? I have a hunch that Gary (West Coast Vend) may slide in at number 10,000. He appears to be using the pacific time zone as an advantage.

tedk Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 Maybe I'll throw up 25 quick posts right now and then sit back and watch the free-for-all for the last half dozen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

West Coast Vend LLC Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 This site is really moving slow today. Are you guys trying to hit 10,000??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caserri Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 It's not over yet folks. It appears we have a few threads with duplicate posts. (Gary ) I will need to clean them up and they will not be counted. After that is done our total will once again be under 10,000. Remember, only a quality post will win the contest. Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caserri Posted March 12, 2008 Share Posted March 12, 2008 Ok, We have a winner! First let me say that it has been my policy to delete duplicate posts by the same member within the same thread. This policy has been in effect since we started and I felt that it should still be enforced regardless of circumstance. Gary I hope you understand. Once all of the duplicates were deleted I went to the database which "post stamps" all of the posts in the order that they were posted. The 10,000th post was made at 5:57pm this evening by Dave (schmedspub). It is post #3 in this thread. ==> http://www.vendiscuss.com/forums/view_topic.php?id=1244&forum_id=7 Congrats to Dave who won a $30.00 A&A credit for that post. Dave I will PM the details to you momentarily. Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
