We don't need to have 3rd prizes, I just want to be able to say something
about what we ARE giving out, to encourage people to enter last-minute.
Guess I'm not communicating very well here.
I want people who go to the website to see that they might receive a nice
prize if they win. I'd like to be somewhat specific if I can ("First place
winners will receive a 200 gallon bowfront personally autographed by Tom
Barr"), but less specific if necessary ("First place winners will receive a
prize valued at $50 [$100]..."). I just don't know WHAT to say because I
can't get a straightforward answer.

Phil: What can I say TODAY on the website about prizes?

Thanks,

I'm honestly not sure what to say about prizes. In the past only 1st
place got anything and I've heard they weren't the best even then. This
year will have a vast improvement in frequency and quality of prizes.
I'll be frank, I'm not sure I'll be able to get enough prizes for 3rd
place. With the big guns tapped getting another 7 prizes worth giving is
going to be harder than getting just any donation for an auction. Why
don't we give a choice of a 2004 con DVD, Aquascaping Contest CD, or a
year's membership/extention to 3rd placers?
Regards,
Phil
