Hours Away
The time is drawing near to give away the bucket o' Iowa crap...and time for a reminder.
I have decided that the referrer of visitor 250,000 (or closest thereafter to claim it) will receive a Hawkeye gift basket of some sort. Everyone I know is getting Hawkeye stuff for Christmas. Why should you be any different?I think I'll also have a handful (i.e. 5) of "nearly first place" prizes for the readers who come close to being the 250,000th visitor themselves and send in a screen shot as proof. They will be small prizes (under $10), but a small something is better than a big nothing. Those prizes will go to anyone who is 249,998 and beyond who claims it first, until all 5 are claimed.
The bucket goes to the blog referrer of the 250,000th visitor (or first non-search engine referrer after 250,000), and I will be the final judge as to who that may be, based on Sitemeter's records.
A deck of cards and keychain will go to the 5 readers closest to being 250,000 to claim it first. So, if you're reader 249,998 or later take a screenshot and e-mail it to me: jenlarson - at - gmail - dot - com. The first 5 screenshots to appear in my mailbox will get the prizes.
JUST 102 VISITORS TO GO!

Posted by: Victor at December 21, 2005 07:36 PMUpdate! 25K+1 was another google search, for the phrase "Screw the Pooch."

:D
Pixy, unbeknownst to me, my brother was doing all that mad clicking.
