[UPDATE, 5.2.06: I'm ending this promotion. A $20 gift certificate will be awarded at the end of May, but no other certificates will be awarded thereafter]

As an incentive to get you to participate in the Beat The GMAT! Forum, I am happy to announce that for the rest of 2006, I will award a $20 gift certificate from Amazon.com to the top poster (the person that contributes the most high-quality posts) each month!

Just use this forum as you normally would to post questions/answer questions, and you may earn $20 simply by being an active contributor!

Some conditions:

There will be some subjectivity in who rightly earns these awards. DO NOT post a lot of messages for the sake of posting messages to get your 'statistics' high--I will be monitoring this board carefully, and if you flood this board with many unnecessary posts, you'll certainly be disqualified from this promotion.
Top contributors who win this award will ideally ask as many questions as they answer other people's questions.
A person can win the $20 gift certificate a maximum of once every three months.

Thanks for helping me build a great GMAT community!

Thanks, Oxygen. This site is officially 11 days old--I suppose we just need to be patient. I am optimistic that there will be more buzz in the near future.

Help spread the word! And let us keep building terrific content...

Dear Forum:

I've decided to stop this promotion--I've come to the conclusion that this money can be used more effectively to invest into this site and invest into more substantial future scholarships.

I will provide a gift certificate for the top poster at the end of May--but no other certificates will be awarded subsequently.

Thanks for helping me build a great community!

Congrats to aim-wsc! He has won a $20 Amazon.com Gift Certificate for contributing the most posts in the month of May.

This one-time promotion is now closed. Thanks!

Thanks a lot, Eric.

i was quite conscious about this announcement, therefore at times it was making me nervous whether i am posting here too much Rolling Eyes

?

but i think i have not posted messages just for sake of getting highest no. of posts.

i have been watching this site since 6-7 months. it's metamorphosed and i am sure one day it will be a great site like pagalguy.com

Great bunch of people are contributing this site.
StacyBlackman Co. and now TestPudits....thumps up Beat the GMAT

i find myself lucky as i have decided to postpone my gmat date.

i am sticking to this forum so that i could take much benefit from good company of you folks, captain, moderators and rest of members.

the purpose of this $20 incentive is to spread the word and expand this site in all ways;
so i again promise i ll do some marketing (as i once did) for this site.

Thanks again, aim-wsc! I appreciate your efforts to spread the world. I'm very optimistic that Beat The GMAT! will one day become a great GMAT resource as well!

All the best, and thanks for helping me build a great community.
