    I have a suggestion, bro
    Sometime people not joining to the contest because finding the other participant already got big point, their feeling late to join. To prevent this, how about making a point is invisible for other member?

    Hi akira07,

    That's a nice suggestion. We will think it over. :)

    But for now, we encourage everyone to just be active in the forum so that the chance to win is higher. Remember, the top 3 members with the highest credits will get their corresponding prize money.

    Thanks! :)

    Anyway but please consider about not showing our credit to the other because it will encourage other member when their seeing that their point is far away from the top point collector, the result : they will stop posting.

    Thanks

    Hi, i suggest you to decrease minimum amount of participant. How about 10 people? 20 is so hard. Just remember my opinion about people behaviour, when their see other member already get a lot of point, their will down and decide to not participate. So i think 20 is too much.

    But those who do choose to participate will aim to surpass the other users so showing the credits is a positive thing.

    Yes, I agree. And for me too, the participants will do their best to get the top position if they see each others credit score. :)

    Hi akira07,

    Right now, we have 5 active participants and 3 inactive. I think this contest will not be extended as long as the participants activity the next 14 days is also the same activity we have since Sept. 1 until Sept. 15. So, as long as 5 of you become active until September 30, the contest ends on that day. :)

    Thanks,
    icebreaker
