Contest #5: FREE book drawing for members joining in June
Contest #5: FREE book drawing for members joining in June of 2009
All new members that join BookTalk.org during June of 2009 are automatically entered into a drawing for a free book. All you do is join and make 10 or more quality posts on our forums to be entered into the drawing.
RULES:
- You must have created your BookTalk.org account in June 2009
- You must write 10+ quality (real) posts on our forums during the month of June
- You have to live in the United States (shipping books internationally is too expensive)
How will the winners be selected?
On or around July 1st our membership list will be sorted in order of date joined. All of the members that joined in June that have 10 or more posts and that live in the United States will be automatically entered into a drawing.
I'll visit
www.random.org and run a random number search between 1 and "X" with "X" being the first person to join in June and 1 being the last. As of June 25, 2009, the date I wrote this post, we have had a total of 47 new members in June so far. So the random number search, if it were done today, would be from 1 through 47. But we have 5 more days left in the contest.
When a number comes up that corresponds to a new member that isn't qualified I'll move to the next random number.
How many books will be given away?
At least 3 and maybe many more.
From which books are we able to select our free book?
Take a look in the
Books Available for Awards thread. There are dozens of great brand new books available.
How will winners be notified?
An email and a private message will be sent. Winners will also be posted right here in this thread. Winners have 30 days to respond and if they don't respond they forfeit their free book. The entire purpose of this contest is to attract new members and reward them for getting involved. If they miss the email and private message they clearly aren't very involved.
How should winners respond?
Winners should send me a private message OR an email to
chris@booktalk.org from the email address associated with their BookTalk.org account. Obviously, I need proof that you are who you say you are.
In your private message or email tell me the name of the book you want, a backup book selection or two (in case your first choice is gone), and include your full mailing address so I can mail the book. Again, you have to live in the United States as shipping overseas is too expensive for our budget.
