Our $5 comment contest is about to come to a close. Right now, you have a 1 in 14 chance of winning $5 just by adding a comment to this post. Contest closes on Sunday April 6 at 11:59PM. The winner will be announced shortly after.

Is 5 bucks a lot of money? No, not really. But it gives us a chance to test the waters. Test out that count-down timer plugin by Andrew Ferguson. See how hard it is to organize the ballots and to randomly pick the winner.

Here are the ballots that we’ve received so far. If you notice any mistakes let us know.

Bottom Line: We’re thinking about running a(nother) contest using some of our PayPerPost cash as prize money. Stay tuned. (We have to figure out what our goals should be…)

Question: Have you had any success running a contest? How did it go? Do you have any advice?
