So you have to make some kind of post in order to have an entry go into the sweepstakes. You could even get fancier with it, like:

- only count posts in certain forums (avoid them posting garbage in "miscellaneous/off-topic forums")
- give an extra vote for every x number of posts up to a max for the day.
- etc...

Good suggestion. I didnt think that far into yet.

But yeah, im surprised this mod isnt out anywhere yet.

Initially I was googling for a company that offered sweepstakes for websites.. but now realize this would be much better if it was already incorporated in forum format as a plugin. Since the databases can be scanned for fradulant type registrations and stuff.

I guess it would be a plugin that would take awhile to make and think about. (rules and regulations for the sweepstakes aswell) But in the end, I really think it would work.
