Comment Contest! Reward for Best Comment!

Calling all Triond users! If you want me to comment on YOUR articles, come here and leave an amazing comment! The more comments I get, the better the prizes will be, so spread the word to your friends!

How do I win?

This contest is to see who actually reads my articles, and who can leave the most creative comment. Of course, to spice things up a bit, the comment can’t be purely what you think of the article. Instead, the award will go to the comment which responds most creatively to one of six random topics. Here they are:

  1. If Komodo dragons could breathe fire, would the karate kid have utilized this power to paint the fence? How? 
  2. Why are giraffes important to you?
  3. If Adam Young had super powers, he would want to fly. If I had a superpower, I would want to be invisible. Explain why if you had a superpower, you would want to be able to turn into a stapler.
  4. Carrots have been classified by some at my lunch table as the most dangerous vegetable. However, some would argue that a “bad apple” contains much more evil than the little orange bullets. State your claim about what food contains the most evil, and how it would go about robbing a bank.
  5. Someone once told me the grass was much greener on the other side. I painted my grass blue. If I were to paint it green again, wouldn’t it then be twice as green as the other side? Why or why not?
  6. When you take your helmet off on Pluto, your head freezes. (It happened on Magic School Bus). If you take your helmet off in your backyard, what happens? If you say nothing, you lose.

Entries will be judged according to creativity, humor, length, readability, and adherence and/or deviance from the prompt.

Prizes

  • First place will recieve a comment from me on one of their articles for every comment on this article. That means if I get 30 comments on this, I’ll read and comment on 30 of your articles. My comments will be more than the lame “Nice share…” and will include real insight or compliments on the writing. If the number of comments owed exceeds your number of articles, I will come back and view those same articles the next day until the quota has been reached.
  • Second place gets one comment for every two comments I get on this, which means half of first place. If I get 30, they get 15.
  • Third place will recieve one third of the number of comments, meaning if I get 30 comments, they will get 10.  
  • Every commenter will recieve one comment from me, just because I’m nice and to prove that this is not just a scam for me to get views. I really will award the winners; I honestly would love to read any articles by someone who can leave me a creative response anyway, so you can trust that I will keep my word.

Other Notes

If you comment and I’m not your fan, I will gladly add you! I love having friends.

Comments will only count towards the total number if they are unique, i.e. not the same person six times. Even if the comments are different, each person will only count once, and no single person will earn all three prizes. (However if one person does choose to answer all six prompts, each one will still be considered for the prize).

Get commenting, and don’t forget to spread the word!
