It's a 1000 entries with one person = 1 drawing only. Not 1000 for one person. If that's what your thinking. I agree that would be insane. I'm waiting for 1000 individual entries to be sent before I can declare a winner.
The prize in to be awarded on january 1st. that's about 2 months from now. An Xmod is free if you win, just like any other contest. Plus this isn't like a lottery, it's gonna be judged. Plus the traffic I'm getting 1000 shouldn't be a lot. 10,000 is insane. I get around 150-200 a day in hits and that's with little advertising! When xmods officially launch i'm gonna have a full email inbox!
This contest is not just for the logo but to spread the site. What I told people is to do your drawing and tell your friends too.
I used to run a techdeck site and it was sucessful but ended cause I was going to school and now i'm gonnna try and make my site sucessful again.
