$400 up for grabs at TPF in September!!!

[Talking Poker]

Ok guys, here are the contests I've come up with for September:

Contest #1: Start the longest thread, win $25.
Contest #2: Refer the most new and productive posters, win $25.
Contest #3: Be the best poster here, as voted on by your peers, win $50.
Contest #4: Last, but not least, we will be having a $300 freeroll at on Thursday, October 6th at 9:00 PM ET.


And now for the fine print.......

Contest #1
-This contest begins on September 1, 2005 at 12:00 AM ET and ends on September 30, 2005 at 11:59 PM ET. The winning thread must be started in that time frame.
-The thread starter's replies don't count when determining the total number of replies for the thread.
-The thread must be in one of the All Things Poker sections.
-If I feel like you abused this contest in any way (by starting tons of threads you don't really care about and hoping for the best all the while not replying elsewhere, for example), I will disqualify you at my own discretion.
-If you think you won, PM me on October 1st with what you think was the winning thread.
-I reserve the right to cancel this contest if things get out of control, as has nearly happened in the past.

Contest #2
This contest is going to be a bit tricky to track, so consider this a beta run. If it works, great, we'll do it again. If it doesn't, well, at least we tried.

To win this contest, you need to refer NEW posters to this forum AND they need to post. When they sign up, have them put your screen name in the referral box. The winner will be the person who's referrals made the most combined posts at the end of the month. If you think you might be the winner, PM me on October 1st with the names of the people you referred and I'll figure it out.

One side note here: You will only get credit for the number of posts from each of your referrals up to the number of posts that YOU made this month (beginning right now). For example, if you make 5 posts this month and refer three people who each make 100 posts, you'll only get 15 points (5 from each of them), not 300. Make sense?

Lastly, don't even think about making a fake account and referring yourself. I'll be chekcing IP addresses on the referrals, and I don't take kindly to people trying to scam me.

Contest #3
At the end of the month, I'll start a thread where you can nominate yourself or anyone else for this prize. Once the nominations are in, I'll set up a poll, and we'll take a vote. Only active posters will be allowed to vote, to prevent cheating. If the voting looks like it was on the up and up, that person will win the $50. If I suspect there was collusion going on and that the voting was rigged (I can see who voted for whom), I'll determine the winner myself, and my decision is final.

Contest #4
October 6, 2005, 9:00 PM ET. This $300 freeroll is open to all Titan Poker players who open an account though my link and make a deposit sometime this month. We need at least 15 people to kick this off, but that shouldn't be a problem, especially considering I will pay you $50 to open your account! For the details, go here:

Just and fyi for Titan. They gave me and extra 10 dollars when i signed up on top of the bonus. Madison from support popped up after i registered and told me if i deposited soon i would get the extra 10. Haven't played yet but so far i like them.

I like the support but I really dont like this skin, the games are soft but for some reason this skin just gets on my nerves. I also dont like that 90% of there tornies are rebuys.

I think you guys are posting in the wrong thread... The Titan one is here:


As for the $10, it sounds like they offer that to most people, making the deal even sweeter.

And the winner is...................... Actually, the winners are....................

Aeq and Zybomb - $25 each. Congrats guys!

What did you all think of this contest? Personally, I like this one the best, and it really rewards people who contribute a lot around here. I think I'll scratch the Refer-A-Friend type one and maybe jack the prize for this one up a bit next time.

Opinions?

[Aequitas58]

Since I was one of the winners, I actually like it. OH - and ty.

[Zybomb]
