Raffle for forums members
 

I did a search, but coudn't find anything.

Is there a hack that would allow a random drawing from the member database so that forum members can win prizes?

I want to set up a system where my members can win gift certificates etc. from some of my sponsers.

It's really simple so I don't know if you even want a hack. Just try this query:
[sql]
SELECT userid, username FROM user ORDER BY RAND() LIMIT 1
[/sql]

That was too easy.

Here is a challenge. How would you make it so that the "odds of winning" would increase by post count?

Come on!! Nobody wants to give it a try? I think this would be cool. :cool:

Hey SVT

I am working on a custom mod for my boards which will take into account(and increase their chances of being pulled) by: referrals, posts, threads started, activeness on the boards, etc. It will also deduct a percentage for spamming, warnings, problems, etc.

So if I decide to release it publicly I"ll let you know!

That sounds great! Exactly what I was looking for. Let me know when you get it working. :banana:

Any update on this? :)

I'd love to see this too. :)
