Another Contest ??? With Prizes!!!

Post by Mike Carey » Thu Sep 09, 2010 4:13 pm

I noticed our Registered Members are now 13,504 and got to thinking - I wonder what the number will be at the end of the year? Hey - that's a good Contest!

Rules are as follows:

Make your guess as to the final tally for Registered Members of WL.com on the last day, last hour of December, 2010.

The person closest (over or under) to the actual number is the winner and will recieve gifts from our sponsors and a one year Premium Membership (or one year renewal if you're already a PM).

The last day to make a guess will be Oct 31st. You can change your guess ONE TIME ONLY up to Oct 31st. After that guesses are just for fun.

Good luck with your guess!

Mike,

Any chance of providing some baseline data? Like, say, the total number of registered members on December 31st for the last 3-5 years? :-k

I fish not because I regard fishing as being terribly important, but because I suspect that so many of the other concerns of men are equally unimportant, and not nearly so much fun. ~ John Volker

Look for Wannafish A Lure on FaceBook
He said, “Throw your net on the right side of the boat and you will find some.” When they did, they were unable to haul the net in because of the large number of fish.

This forum has only been running for less than three years. We never wrote this stuff down. I think we ended last year around 8,600 members which would have been the second full year it was running.

I'm gonna cover all my bases and say somewhere between 13,505 and 15,020 :bounce:

Carey (not Drew) "OK Gonefishing what's your guess on Washington Lakes - Members R' Us without going over?"

Gonefishing "um......" looks to the left and begs. Looks to the right and begs. Pulls out magic 8 ball and asks "is my guess to high?" and it replies "Ask again later" and then says "Mike...... my final bid is 13,728"
