August 2021 Posting Contest -- Win Two $25 rewards (which will be paid via PayPal)

Post by gali »

Another two prizes are up for grabs!

Prize 1-- The author of the topic in the August 2021 Book of the Month Discussion Forum that gets the most unique replies by the end of August wins $25 (which will be paid via PayPal). :D

Prize 2-- Whoever posts the most combined replies in August on other people's topics overall in the August 2021 Book of the Month Discussion Forum wins a $25 (which will be sent via PayPal).

The August 2021 Book of the Month is Chameleons by Onyx Gold.

Very short topics and posts will not be counted. Off-topic generic, short, repetitive, meaningless, or 'fluffy' topics/posts won't be approved by the moderators. Topics and replies should be meaningful and must demonstrate that one actually read the book. Comments should be at least three sentences long. Comments made just to increase the count won't be approved.

For Prize 1, "unique replies" means replies by different people, not the same person. So, for example, if one person posts four replies on one of your topics, that counts as only one.

Topics must actually be about the book. Overly general discussion topics or topics not really about the book will NOT be approved and will not be counted towards the contest.

Scott is not eligible to win (since it's his own contest).

You can check the current results anytime on the Cool Stats Page.

If you have any questions let me know.

Remember, it's meant to be fun! :D

* You need to read the book to open new threads or discuss topics. Generic/duplicate topics won't be approved.

Thank you!

If a moderator or admin wins either prize, then Scott will send that person their prize, but he will also send the prize to the next non-moderator/non-admin in line. This way no member can get bumped from getting a prize by a moderator or admin. The reason for this is that he has asked the moderators to be sure to reject off-topic threads and posts, so this will make sure the moderators can be strict without it potentially seeming unfair.

Hello there, I'm relatively new here. I would like to know if you have to purchase the book of the month and read it on your own in order to participate in the forums. The book looks interesting, but romance is just not my favorite genre. Thanks.

You MUST read the book to participate in the BOTM Forum and discuss the book. Unless the book is offered for a review, you need to purchase it to read it.
