I am going to need some more response pads soon… Hmmm… I don’t have any ideas though. ---

Well, it’s no rush to think of ideas now, but it would be nice to do it as a little Spring cleaning project around here. I’d basically find the stuff a new home, and mail it all out at once, as is, no tracking…just random stuff. I’ll think of something…I always do. :wink: I’ll start going through what I have. ---

> [@TotalArtist](#): > > I have an idea for some small giveaways, but I’m curious if you guys have some ideas about how I should do it. The thing is, I have a lot of small stuff that I need to get rid of. None of it is really worth selling, but it would be worth having for some people. It’s not the kind of prize stuff I’d use for The Splash Game or something…moreso, on a first come, first serve basis for whoever needs it. > > I want to do it so it’s pretty fair though, and I’m thinking of posting the stuff in here in case you guys can use it. I was thinking of posting the item in the thread, and the first person who responds with some interest in it…gets it. The thing is, the stuff is so cheap that I refuse to pay for tracking on it, so it’s all stuff to be given away as is, with no tracking. So, I can guarantee it will be mailed, but I’m not going to pay to track it. The items are things like multi-tools or response pads, random string, a cheap throw here or there…something like that. I’m going to have to think of some rules, because I don’t want the same person grabbing everything. > > Let me know if you have any ideas what might be an interesting way to make it happen. :-\ Well. For that one part. “I don’t want the same person grabbing everything.” Thats a good point. Because someone could check your profile topics every hour and win something. Some other busy person, who might actually need it. Is… Well… Busy and might not see the threads. Or works the hour you post them… Here are some random ideas… Maybe a trivia game. Thats fun. But you don’t want questions like “What was CLYW’s first yoyo.” Or a question that can super easily be googled… Of course there is always picture contests. Cars and yoyos :wink: Maybe have people post a one throw yoyo video. And then put names in a hat and draw randomly. That way there is fun and no fuss. Match a picture yoyo trick to a drawing? Ooo. Maybe a drawing contest… Best picture of ----- drawn with Crayons only wins or something. Maybe even people vote on a picture… ---

Speaking of work- I got like a reallll job too. I don’t get paid much, but I used to be an intern at a youth theater, and now I’m an assistant! So I get paid a little… But i love it and would come anyway if I wasn’t getting paid, so it’s ok! I don’t actually get the money cuz it goes to my family, who’re kinda in trouble because my dad’s been unemployed for a year and a half and I have 6 siblings, including a little sis has downsyndrome and we have to pay for her medical bills, but it still feels good knowing I have a “job” and I’m helping my family. ---

Idk what you should do for a contest but I know that I can’t do photo contests because my camcorder doesn’t take pictures. ---

There was a really cool contest a little while ago, you posted a funny Youtube video and the funniest one got a N12. Maybe you could do the same thing but a prize drawing instead? ---

Maybe you could do the same thing but a prize drawing instead? Well…I don’t really want a contest for this one, more of a giveaway…of some real small items, but do it in a fair way. I’m just figuring out how the stuff will be distributed cheaply, easily, and without one person getting it all. For example, a few counterweights, different accessories and stuff. I’ll figure something out. I’m pretty sure I will do it in this thread though. :wink: ---

I’m pretty close to coming up with a good idea, and I’ll share it tomorrow when I’ve worked the rules out. I’ll post up some proposed rules, and let you guys see them beforehand. Then, when we finalize the rules, we’ll proceed. If it works out okay, we’ll do it every so often. It might be a good quick way for me to find some things a new home. ---
