    What are some contest prizes you guys would be interested in competing for?

    Here are things we have in mind so far:

    • vBSEO or CommunitySEO license (for vBulletin or IP.Board respectively)
    • X hours of professional coding
    • CometChat - Facebook-like chat system for vBulletin (also stand-alone version for self-implementation with other scripts)
    • Gift Cards: iTunes, Amazon, ???
    Feel free to let your imagination run wild and tell us what types of things you would be interested in competing for. :)

    X hours of professional coding

    That is something that I really need and would definitive compete about. Do not really want an vbseo and the cometchat is very cheap so that I would just buy myself. Gift cards might be something I would compete for 2.

    Gift Cards (for Amazon uk).

    No interest in any of the others (already have vbseo, do my own coding, use Flashchat if I need a chat). :)

    I could use like $10k :p

    But really...

    This is a darn good idea. How much of a pain is it to validate your entire forum? It sucks and everyone knows it! I know for a fact right now I have a huge amount of errors, granted it is about a 1/3 from what it was :|

    X hours of professional coding would be my first choice, but I'd also love vbSEO or that forum validation.
