Monty's Spectacular Money Giveaway! *Updated!*

Post by Monty »

In honor of my 1404 post, I have a need to give away some money! Here's how it'll work: I'll post a task. The first to complete this task gets $10. We will do this for 10 tasks.

Here's your first task! Write 75 words or more about what the ToO means to you.

EDIT: The person who has earned the most money after 10 tasks will receive an additional $25!

The ToO mean a lot to me.

The people here are so awesome!! They have become some great friends!

I have so much fun posting about Adventures in Odyssey episodes.
Life would be pretty boring without The ToO ;)

I can't believe I've been on here for a whole year. It's crazy.
I hope I never tire of this site, because it brings so much joy to every day.

The ToO Is one of the best websites ever!







How's that? :D ;)

Fantastic, Shadowdog! On to task #2!

This one's a little harder. I have written down secretly the names of three fairly well known users on the ToO. The first person to post 50 words of kindness about one of the people I've written down will receive $10!

Rules:

1. No more than one person can be described per post.

2. If no one has guessed one of the 3 users after 10 posts besides mine have been made, or in 72 hours, whichever comes first, I will keep the $10 and we will move on to the next task.
Winners:
Shadowdog-$10

snubs is a great user. She was especially nice to me when I first joined, and helped me to join the site in the first place! I wouldn't have had all the fun I've had here if not for her. She's fun, kind, and an all around great user. She's also the absolute best graphics designer currently operating a shop. I love her sets! \:D/

Lee, as the only one to guess at this challenge, you will receive $5. The three people I had written down were bookworm, Gaius, and Laura Ingalls.

1st to post: $10
2nd to post: $7
3rd to post: $5
4th to post: $3
5th to post: $1
Winners!
Shadowdog-$10

Game update!
The person who has the most money after 10 tasks are over will receive an additional $25!

I'm going to keep this going and move on to the next task!

In answer to your question, Bookworm, they were written on a Post-It note that I placed next to my computer so I didn't forget in the 72 hours that the challenge lasted.

Congratulations to Graces4You, Knight Fisher, Moontide, and Bookworm! Your money will arrive soon!

Task #4!

For this next task, everyone who posts can win up to $10; and you can win more than once!

Rule 1: All you have to do is post the title of one topic that Catspaw has posted in.

Rule 2: You can only post one topic per post, and cannot post a topic that has been previously posted.

Rule 3: You can only post again if at least two other people have posted after you.

Rule 4: This task will end next Tuesday, on the 18th.

Rule 5: Everyone is guaranteed at least $0.50 per eligible post.

Good luck!
Winners!
Shadowdog-$10
Graces4you: $10
Knight Fisher: $7
Moontide: $5
Lee-$5
Bookworm: $3

How were we supposed to know then?
And why did Lee win something? She guessed wrong.

In theory, you were supposed to guess...I tried to choose fairly well known people. Lee won money because she participated, and I was going to have to double post if she didn't...

You didn’t say that was part of the deal. :noway: If it was I would have guessed. And I would have guessed myself, so I actually would have won.
