    I don't believe so. I've been here since October 20-ish when the contest began.

    It's in order according from who got 300 posts.

    Make sure to make lengthy posts and try to not to make many one-liners. What we're looking for is 300 quality posts. After you get your copy feel free to be a bit more relaxed, this is a competition for the forums to get a kick start and gain some quality content. Replying with a single sentence isn't really contributive. Please keep that in mind. :)

    I've been here for one month and this contest was originally 800 posts. I was really surprised when the forum got a complete new look with lower bar for the contest!

    Well, that is a dramatic change to drop from 800 to 300. However, I feel its quite necessary, otherwise people wouldn't be able to complete the feat of making enough posts here and keeping quality high. It seems to be problem even now. You know, for people like me.

    Well, I was the first one to reach 300, and It feels bad to say Demut got first when I worked hard to come first :sadface:

    Psh, don’t be a crybaby, Jeruhmi, we all know who reached the 300 first and congratulated you accordingly, didn’t we :p ? Besides, perhaps he listed those who “truly” reached 300 posts first (you know, since some of us had already posts from before the post counter was adjusted) ;)

    Well yes and no.

    It was 800 points, which you got from posting and making threads got you 2 points.
    But with the new forum, there are no points! (Well from what I can see)

    I will make it by tomorrow or thursday, I have a lot of lower quality posts from Sunday when I started so I need more like 400. The contest will go on until the 13th so assuming that all the copies havent been given away by then, you could easily make it Travis.
