ok, after failing to win that VIP red, i wanna ask you guys what we can suggest the admin for the prize on the next raffle.....

...lets see...a BLUE-BASE X-BACK ARO?
..or a really cool and ginormous acrylic tank? about 300 gals would be great
..or even a top of the line filtration system, EHEIM maybe?

what about you guys? :naughty:

Yea, BIGG TANK. Or....somthin cool.

I think a tank wouldn't be feasible due to the shipping costs involved (remember, even if it's only in the States, that would include Alaska, Hawaii, etc..)

I think it would have to be a rare monster ... maybe a platinum/albino this time. Although the SR was fun, I think the next one should be something that's legal in the US as most MFK members live there..

Just my 2c..

i agree that a tank that large wouldnt work. how about umm...a......one of these
Sisor rhabdophoris, a rare cryptic cat that you'll very very rarely if ever see in the hobby!
or maybe a guppie. iv been looking through this thread http://www.monsterfishkeepers.com/forums/showthread.php?t=18015 and wouldnt mind having most of those

Why such large prizes? Some one has to pay for it and chances are it's going to be a bunch of admin (or neo prolly!) Just be greatful for everyones efforts in keeping this massive community happy and going strong they do good work and give away heaps already!

:nilly:

we know that, duh:nilly: we're just suggesting for the fun of it and the hope it might be taken seriously. plus there's such a word as sponsors (company owners who advertise in the site and have chunks of moolah to spare) ya know:headbang2

and yes, we very very very much appreciate all of the admin's work. thanks neo and the team!

I think that the 300 gal tank would be an awesome prize but then again shipping would be way on up there. I think I will just sit back and see what great prize they come up with this time around. :popcorn:

How bout money for a online shop or one of the sites sponserers??
then we can get what ever we want... i have seen this happen on a few other forums and they do great business as it encourages people to buy products from them(the sponserer)

02-12-2007, 10:00 AM
I think a nice large acrylic tank would be awesome. or a crazy filter/flow system capable of handling up to 1000 gallons would be nice. Fish are cool too but Im not a fan of having fish shipped around, Id rather get a nice innanimate object than a fish because the fish could die within a week and then nothing has been won...

jadon
02-12-2007, 2:22 PM
I think if we were to do a big tank han how about a gift certificate. Maybe do one for the winner at his choice to use at his favorite shop this way you could avoid the shiooyng cost and you could still include states and or countries that would to far away.

milkman407
02-12-2007, 2:25 PM
... We cant do a tank shipping for a tank would be way to much.. Why not a subscription to one of the magazines and a bunch of mfk stuff.

mike dunagan
02-13-2007, 3:04 PM
I think the backgrounds were a great idea... I would love to just get some stickers. I have asked a few times and nothing... It would be cool to do money or something to spend at sponsor sites...

richardhmc
02-13-2007, 4:49 PM
Money or gift certificates would be nice. ;)

Although, for some people like me, if you win, you dont have the tank space.

I thumbs up the acrylic tank idea. Now to find all that money....... hmmm

fishkid951
02-14-2007, 4:03 PM
i think money is a great idea because then we can buy what we want where we want. Gift certificate is a good idea for a LFS of our choice. A tank would not be the suitable prize because so many people live overseas and it would cost heaps in shipping. and some people have enough tanks as it is...For instance, i live in Australia and other people live in England...etc.
Thanx Fishkid

A raffle?
But someday be so kind as to let me know what you are all talking about? I hear all this talk about a raffle, do we really have raffle's here or is this just a joke? I am new here so forgive my ignorance, please. If they are real, can someone please explain to me how it works, do we buy raffle tickets or are they giving to us, just for being a member of this community? Real curios and would love to participate. PS a 300 gallon tank would be nice, but a gift certificate where I can purchase a 300 gallon tank would be even nicer. LOL

There's no current raffle going on.... this is a pointless thread. I know what you're thinking: "theres this many replies to a thread not made my admin asking for ideas? :screwy: "

That's exactly what I'm thinking. Thank you so much for your response, it is greatly appreciated.

I know i personally need a large wet dry for my 240 that i'm setting up just a empty wet dry with no pump or anything would be great and well appreciated by every one on mfk i'm sure. Don't let me sound greety or anything just something i personally need i would be happy with some mfk sticker thow i love this site. IT's the best fish site i have come across and the only one i view on a regulare basis at all. Great people here lot's of info and nice peeps. I would of never built my own stand for my 240 with out this place or been able to fix my glass tank. So what ever is awarded here is just a bonus because to beging with this site is killer. Thanks for having me on

12-03-2007, 9:39 PM
I like how there is only one post by an admin on this thread and all he said was:
"You can't raffle off Bob Barker!"
So, with that in mind, I really like the 300 gallon acrylic idea, but it would be sweet to get some stickers or decals too.
