*Balloon1*Welcome to my BEST OF THE REST RAFFLE*Balloon2*



Thanks to W~W Gone Fishing! for the BOTR graphic.

Thanks so much for popping into my little ol' raffle. Just a few notes:

My first "Best of the Rest Raffle" was a great success and there was a lot of interest in it. Because of that, I thought I'd host another round here in August 2010. I'll be making a few changes to it, but most of the rules and guidelines will remain the same.

I love my contest, "The Best of the Rest,"

The Best of the Rest 
JAN/FEB 2012 Round is OPENED for judging.
by StephB
but unfortunately, funding for it is not easy. With the start of the new year I've had to pinch pennies and my own personal donations are now limited. I got involved in the MASP program and the GP's help, but I have my membership to renew and I do host two other contests. I'd like to see Best of the Rest stick around so I'm hoping my raffle will help out. *Smile*

*Balloon3*THE RULES*Balloon4*


1. Tickets are 2,000 GP's each. The max tickets the contest will sell is 250. The Raffle will start when 250 tickets have sold or when the raffle hits the "end" date - whichever is first. The end date for the raffle is:

*Note3* Note: The August Raffle will start on: 05 AUG.

The August Raffle will end on 18 AUG.

Hostess's Note!

2. Donations to the Raffle over 30K will earn a merit badge for "Finance."

3. 25 % percent of the "pot" will go the Best of the Rest Prize Fund.
CHANGE FOR THIS MONTH: The other 25% of the pot will go to my Show Off Your Best at the Sandbox Contest. This is a contest I host every month that is in extreme need of GP's right now to keep going.

4. The "Grand Prize" winner will get 10% of the pot.

5. The following prizes will be awarded accordingly:

2nd Place - 25K awardicon for a folder in a port
3rd Place- 10K awardicon for a folder in a port

4-7th Place Merit badges for Angel, Appreciation, Supportive, Teamwork,

If there is money left, it will go into the Best of the Rest Prize Fund.

I will list the Tickets and their holders here in the forum. ALL PRIZES will be chosen using WDC'S VIRTUAL DICE.

Winners will be listed in the forum as well.

If you have any questions please contact me at: StephB

Please send all GP's to the following:
