Members of the "elite 325"
1. bbcard1
It's March 1st and not April 1st, so this is no joke. You could be rarer than you think and by participating you could win the grand prize.
Rules and Assumptions:
1. There are currently about 325,000,000 folks in the United States in 2016.
2. Without offending our Canadian friends and others, for the purpose of this contest all board members will be considered equal and from the US.
3. Net 54 is a special subset of this total population and as such, the 324,000,000 folks who are not yet members of Net54 will be granted "undocumented" membership for this contest.
4. Activity on the board will be quantified by the number of posts that you have made on Net 54, regardless of the quality of their content.
5. Leon has provided me with the number of posts required to be in the top 325 posters on Net 54. Those 325 members are legitiment claimants to the title of
"One in a Million".
6. Post on this thread to learn if you are one in a million. Each day I will choose a random post from this thread by one of the 325 special people and in time, the threshold required to be included will be approached. I will do this by creating a list of the "elite 325" at the top of this post, adding one name per day.
7. The contest, however, will be to identify the person who is 33rd on the list of posters. This individual holds the distinction of being the member of Net54 who is truly
"One in Ten Million".
8. When you post on the thread feel free to guess who the "One in Ten Million" board member is?
9. This will be difficult initially, but as the one million threshold becomes clear, it should become easier.
10. When and if the
"One in Ten Million" individual posts on this thread, it will be revealed that he or she has posted, but not immediately, but within 7-10 days? Only if this person guesses himself or herself in their initial post, can they win. If another member guesses the winner before the 7-10 day reveal, I will duplicate the prize and there will be two winners.
11. When this occurs, the contest should end rather quickly depending on the volume of posts in that 7-10 period?
12. Leon has provided a prize fund of 250 dimes to the winner.
13. The data used to determine both the threshold and the Ten Million to One individual is constantly changing of course. Both the number and the person were determined at 8AM central time today, March 1st.
14. The contest will end by April 1st, no fooling.
