Hey all,

We are having a new contest!

This will be a team contest thing. So first you will have to build your teams! The teams will consist of 3 people; a team captain (current members) and 2 new members (referred by current member) that join under them.

You will have to let us know that you are wanting to participate (posting here) and pick a name for your team (maybe even put the team name is your siggy). Then let us know when your friends join and make sure they use your name as the referral. We will be keeping track to keep it fair.

Your friends can either use your member name in the referral field during registration, or they can follow your personal/unique referral link. Click here (http://forums.onewed.com/faq.php?s=&do=search&q=referral&match) and you should find your unique link to send to friends. *Ex: my link ends in 698, yours should be different*

You will have a week (until Tuesday of next week) to get your 2 friends to join and build your teams; so get started!

Once we have the participating teams set up, we will be posting random trivia questions (wedding related, member related, pop culture, ect) and the teams will compete to get the most right. The first person to answer correctly will win a point for their team.

The contest will run through the end of August with 1 question posted everyday. Then the winning team will split $150 (gift cards and such) in prizes!

ETA - Just so we are all clear, this is a refer a friend contest. The teams will consist of one current member and 2 new members that are referred by the current member and that join under them.

Mods/Admin will not be participating in the contest as they will be helping to run it.

We will be skipping weekends since there are usually more people online through the week.

Any further questions about the rules please feel free to ask them here. Don't forget to tell us that you want to be involved!

You don't have any friends or family you could ask? They don't necessarily have to be planing brides; but they might should at least like wedding talk, so they would generally be interested in the board. We would hope these new members would want to stick around for more than just the contest ;)

I have one of my bridesmaids so far but that is about it..Most of my family isn't computer literate, doesn't really do the forum thing, or is just too busy with everything...Most of my family members are those that are always on the go...Thank goodness for cell phones or we would never get to talk!!

Well you only need 2 (so you have one down) and you have a week. Maybe ask someone at work or church or any other forums you are on.

So what do you want to call your team?

Wow, this is so exciting!! And I'm so thrilled that some of you have already started recruiting new members for your team, and naming your teams as well! I can't wait until we get to meet all of the new members, and see the teams trying to answer all the questions!!!

This sounds like fun. Too bad I can't play but I will have fun helping with it all. This is exciting. $150? Who can't use that. Even if it is in gift cards. I know I could. Have fun picking your teams. I can't wait to see all the teams that you all come up with.

Yes, they have to join and use you as a referral. There is a link in the opening post here for the referral code to give them. Or you can just get them to enter your user name in the referral field when they register.

So what do you want to call your team?

The game will not officially start until we get the teams together. So far we only have 3 partial teams. Then we will post the questions in another thread.

Today is the last day to get your teams together everyone!!

*if we don't get enough people/teams together the contest will not happen*
