To promote activity within the forum I am going to holding a month long contest for the duration of April. The winner will receive $50 via Paypal.
You'll have an opportunity to win by doing what you already do, which is to participate on our forums. The more you participate, the better chance you have of winning.
Here is the criteria I will be using to select a winner:
Total Posts - Total posts made in the month of April
Threads Started (Total & Total Forums) - Total threads started for the month of April, and how many individual forums were used in starting these threads.
Reputation Received - Total Reputation points received for the month of April.
Reputation Given - Total Reputation given out for the month of April.
Blog Comments - Total Comments left on blog entries http://blog.debatepolicy.com
Referrers - Refer new members to the board and have a substantially better chance of winning, as I will give extra weight to this category. To read more about how to link someone to the board and receive credit for their signing up:

Reputation points can and will be monitored to ensure no one tries to win via cheating. Posts and/or threads should be on topic, and not one word replies simply to add another notch to your post count. I will look at this when I sort the top posters and thread creators for the month!
The contest will start this upcoming Tuesday, April 1st. I will give a weekly update showing the top contenders.
Good luck to all!
