If anyone else wants to set up a Coin Giveaway, Heres the notes I passed on to help someone, it only takes a few minutes and is lots of fun!! You dont need a lot of coins either, you can have 10 or 20 prizes of 10 coins and it will only cost you 100 or 200 coins, and youll have so many happy winners! Even if you only want your prize be 5 coins, you can have 20 winners for only a hundred coins... Its so much fun to watch everyone win, too, I get all excited when I see someone with just a few coins win a handful.
Try it!!
Go to new threads just like you are starting a new post... over on the upper right, click on "advanced mode"
If you look under the big box you usually type in, across the bottom youll see that line of things - Reply Awards * Read Permissions * Price* Set the Thread Tags
Choose "Reply Awards" - the box will pop up - 1st box is how many coins you are giving away - if you want them to win 10 coins, put 10 there
2nd Box - put in how many winners you want to have - so put 10, or 15 or 20... depends on how many coins you want to give away
3rd box - is how many times they can win- leave it a 1, that means they can only win 1 time, unless you want them to win more than once... if you want them to win twice, put 2
4th box is the % of the time there will be a winner - set it at 50% or 60% or 70%, so youll have more winners than losers, if you set it any lower we found the game goes on forever and never ends... at 70% it is exciting because there are a lot of winners and everyone is happy, When we first did this I set it at 30% and no one was winning, very boring, too, so I went back in to "edit" and changed it... then it got fun and exciting to see so may winners.
There are numbers there that the system will tell you how many coins you are spending, its very faded, on the bottom line... keep an eye on that too.
You have to write all your stuff in the top box, just like you normally would... I centered the text and used a lot of different colors to make it look "fun".
I added this phrase, because we had some grouchy losers
"I am not responsible for who wins or loses,
if you arent happy with losing, dont play!....
The winners are chosen by the system, you dont have to do anything, just sit back and watch everyone have fun!
Heres a link to my games if you want to take a look at how they were set up,
