    In Buy, Sell, Trade > Contests

    1) Each thread will have at least 4 or 5 "sub-contests" paying various amounts of cash.

    2) For example, one thread could focus on quality content creation, another on PHP, etc.

    3) Since I'm already planning on "consolidating" the number of new posts by having 4, 5 (or more) contests per thread, is there any limit to how many contest threads I can run at one time?

    Thank you

    You can have several/many threads but they all need to be clearly distinct so that you don't fry our brains trying to decipher the difference.

    Just use your common sense. If you post a bunch of contests that are essentially the same thing, we might look at them at duplicate threads. If you post obscene amounts of threads about similar things (where you'd be monopolizing that section of the forums), you may have some closed or removed. Try spacing them out a bit and not posting separate threads of overly similar contests, and you probably won't have an issue.

    Perhaps you could also link to the other contests in the thread also, so people can enter them if they wish and so they dont have to dig through the forum to find the other ones, I assume that'd be ok with the mods just as long as its added to the OP.

    IE:

    Contest#1:
    Contest#2:
