UPDATED (2/28/12) IN ACCORDANCE WITH NEW PRIZE VAULT RULES

Welcome Podunkers to GP's latest giveaway where one lucky active member in the forum will win a dozen of video game spoils including games, accessories, strategy guides, movies, shirts, posters, and more! Prizes will be random and chosen from various game consoles (PS, PS2, PS3, Xbox, 360, PSP, GBA, NDS, PC) that may be in new or used condition.

Depending on our time and resource, GP will host a prize vault giveaway every month or two.

We used to do the contest by random selection of the top 20 posters on a given day, but now we're basing our selection on the quality of our member's contributions to the community. Here are some things we'll be looking for:
  • Good, thought-provoking or interesting comments left on threads and articles. Perhaps even ones leaving feedback or that expound on what the OP said.
Spoiler
  • Good, thought-provoking or interesting threads. Contribute interesting threads to the community, but try to make them more than just a single sentence in the form of a question. Try to share something of interest as well, whether it be a link to a cool article, some cool pictures (SFW please; NSFW pics are forbidden on GP) or game/movie trailers or the like.
Spoiler
  • Frequency of quality posts. Someone who is always making interesting and quality posts will no doubt be considered above someone who only makes the occasional quality post.
  • Good Grammar and Spelling. Now we're not grammar nazis or anything, and this one is just a little more nitpicky than the others, but it goes without saying that it's a lot more easy on the eyes to read through comments and threads that use proper grammar and spelling.
Spoiler


The purpose of the prize vault contest is to thank and award our active forum contributors. Honestly, if you follow the above guidelines, it won't be too hard to garner the attention of myself or the mods. We keep track of everyone that comments and contributes in the community, so be sure to contribute as much as you can, but more importantly, be sure to contribute thoughtful comments and quality content. At the end of each month, we'll go through the members and select the one that we think contributed the best comments and content as the winner of the Prize Vault for that month.

Be sure to check back often on the latest prize vaults happening on GP. Thanks and best of luck to everyone!

  • Locationthe capital of my name is the starting point of my island's name. However, it posesses a slight bitterness to it-similar to the flavour of the word citrus- And its syllables are the same as my island's name... Although it is served without Tea, it is better accomodated with a piece of Pie. Where is the location in which I inhabit?

I'm still puzzled as to what this Prize Vault will be perhaps a lifesize replica of Tron's lightcycle? No? I thought so...;p
But if this post will place me as one of the contestants of the competition then I'm all in!!! :) Good to see everyone trying to contribute to GamePodunk as much as possible and also thanks Jason Clement for your generous offer!!! Hope to see you on the chat someday OR night.

Just posting in general is how you enter the prize vaults. At the end of the month, the moderators and Jason vote on who contributed the best during the month and that tally determines the winner.

As for what's in them, these posts give a good idea:

Is it just me or does Your Fitness Yoga appear an uncomfortable amount of times? :D All joking aside, the Prize Vaults are pretty darn impressive. Some the the stuff that comes in the Boxes of Amazingness are, well, amazing!

Oh god, that's either terrifying or amazing. :D I really can't picture this in my head but I'm pretty sure it will be hilarious either way. At least, let's get Jason to do it!

The fact that DarkCobra86 doesn't win all the time amazes me he is a forum posting machine. The same could be said for TKtheKnight or Ludono. LOL :lol:

You do know that Ludono just won this month's Prize Vault, right? Also, TKtheKnight recently won Lollipop Chainsaw so there are two of your non-winning members off the list! :D
