As this competition started and drifted, I have found a few problems on this idea. I ws hoping maybe we could discuss them, and find a better solution.
For the referral, it seems that the recent new members that joined the site have not been writing down there references. WIth this at hand, the referral is going no where, and I am afraid it will end there too.
My solution to this is to explain on how someone found this site rather than who you were referred by. The people that are taking their time in advertising are just not getting any reward for it because they have not directly recruited that specific person. Therefore, there is no benefit in advertising.
I suggest we make it more something like 'how did you find this site'. That ispretty much my conclusion to this problem.

Perhaps you should include your advertising if at all possible to mention you as a referrer? The competition is almost over now, so I'm not going to change anything, but when time suits and some other things are out of the way (some somewhat related, others not) I would like to talk with the staff about trying this again sometime in the future. I hadn't been aware that this had been the case you had mentioned, but really, the lack of members that have been referred overall has been lacking (a few of the new characters in the past week and a bit have been people I know, I would like to add) and I'm unsure how much of a difference it would have made... I don't know. I appreciate your efforts Juliet, but this whole kind of competition has been kind of a flop and I'm kind of at a loss. The main issue with people that I've spoken with is that WR is pretty much the only community site a lot of us visit. That's a good thing, I guess, but it's kind of a double edged sword in some ways, lol.

Sorry for not replying. I kind of forgotten about this thread =(.
I have been noticing that too. Members seem to not be increasing like the old twom. However, on a site of mine, someone logged in and advertised an ad board that seemed pretty good. Would you like me to pm that to you?
Yes, I agree. Well, it was worth the try right?
However, if you don't mind, I would still like to help in advertising. At this moment, I am still advertising this board around. I don't exspect any reward or such, I just want to know if that is o.k. with you.

It's perfectly alright. I encourage it. Probably THE best form of advertising is an attractive signature on a site where you are well established.
