Google has changed, so this is pretty much not working anymore. Contest closed.




This is a contest always open for any Elfpacker to enter. You just have to create an interesting wiki-page that draws attention to Elfpack, and you can win donor-privileges (for you or to give away).

Rules

§1 The goal is to create an interesting wiki-page that makes non-Elfpackers come to Elfpack.

§2 The page should be somewhat "Elfpackish". That means that it should be fun, cool or just interesting for people who are likely to become Elfpackers. It must not contain any porn, racism or other unwanted stuff (Ask [Hedda] if you're unsure!).

§3 If your page has attracted approximately 1000 people to look at Elfpack, you'll get the prize of a donor-privilege for you or one that you can give away.

§4 The wiki-page must of course be exported, otherwise it can't be found by non-Elfpackers.

§5 [Hedda] will try to spot popular pages, but comment on this page to be sure. If you do and your page is good enough, you'll get some help to make it known.

Hints

Try to make a page about something that no one else has done a page about! Of course your page will be extremely popular if it's the best page about "sex", but it's very unlikely that you'll succeed in that. Here are some examples of pages that are successful:

www.linkmeet.com/_rydstider - It contains all the opening hours in a suburb of the town Linköping in Sweden. It gets about 5 hits a day, which would have given 1000 hits in only 200 days.

www.cathug.com/3 - It contains an image of Lilo having sex with Birk. It and it's subpages are getting 4000-8000 hits a day from Google's image-search. 

www.cathug.com/_cat%20names Contains a list of cat names. Gets 50 hits a week.

Scak gets 10 hits per day for some strange reason...

AC3 has a lot of photos that have generated some 133 hits from new people in a month.

Some other pages with over 10 hits per day:
http://elftown.eu/_Perverted%20Jokes
http://elftown.eu/_medieval%20ranks
http://elftown.eu/_eye%20tutorial
http://www.linkmeet.com/_fat (People are searching for "Fat people", "Italian guy" or "Finnish girl" in Google's image-search. The first will get unlucky though as "fat" here is "(beer) barrel(s)" in Swedish, not fat.)
http://www.writersco.com/_Canadian%20Agents

So there are many ways to make something useful and unique. Anything from lists of bands playing Emo Japanese Metal to a photo album of all the flowers you can find in the streets of Manhattan. If have something good about a few (2) very specific keywords, it can often be one of the best pages in the world about that particular subject.

More ideas: Describe your school with pictures. Or your village. Make sure to name the wiki-page well. Like for example Elfpack University Photos.
