I don't know how feasible this is but I thought I'd give it a shot.

After reading the FAQ I noticed that, at least at one point, there were prizes offered for winning daily competitions.

How about offering a month's Advantage subscription to the member that finishes out the month as the leader? For those that are already Advantage subscribers the month could be tacked on to the date that our subscription is already set to end (or stored like tokens or something to be used later?).

I'll shut up now...

thats an interesting idea Tofu, or maybe $15 could be put into the pay pal account, cos the chances of a non advantage member winning the month is slim...... interesting

I didn't think offering actual cash was good. A one month Advantage subscription is what $4? I thought it'd be better for jmh's bottom line that a cash reward.

But I do see your point that non-Advantage members might not have as good a shot. The only thing I can say is that I have Advantage and I'll likely never catch you. This is true for a couple reasons:

I'm just not that creative and I'm okay with that
I'm not as good as you are (hopefully that's a yet) and I'm okay with that
I'm not psycho enough to put in 12-15 hours on a chop. Okay maybe I am but my wife would never let me get away with it.

I don't know. The more I think about it the more I think it's not that great of an idea. Maybe the bragging rights are good enough after all. Easy for me to say isn't it...

this will never happen unless the world joins here and makes jmh a tra-squillionaire, but hey give it a year hey Tofu, ya never know

All in favor of the world making JMH a tra-squillionaire say "Aye"

Aye!
