Please weigh in here on whether or not you would like to up the ante with a little cash prize for the winner.

If this is agreed upon, I will create a Paypal account for the Biggest Loser winner. Everyone will send the decided-upon amount to this account, and at the end of the competition, the winner will get to take over the account and have a little fun spending money. :)

    I would be willing to pitch in an agreed upon amount and I will be weighing in tomorrow :)
    Does anyone have a specific amount in mind?

    If there are enough people who want to add a cash incentive, I think we'll just do a sublevel of the competition to keep it fair. We can have Biggest Loser winner overall, and if that person is not someone who took part in the cash game, the Biggest Loser of all those contributing will get the money.

    We'll see what the interest is for this over the next week and see if it's worthwhile. If you would like to contribute to a prize, please post here and also indicate how much you'd be willing to put in.

    I think $10 per person is reasonable.

    I'm in the UK, but don't mind chipping in to a prize fund. I think 10US$ is about £6.25.

    Sounds great guys! We'll set it at $10 USD. I'll set up the Paypal account and post the details here shortly; I figure we should give it until the end of the week to allow people to decide if they want to participate and give everyone time to make the necessary arrangements.

    Okay, the Paypal account is under the email springscorcher@hotmail.com.

    If you do not have a Paypal account, creating one is free. You can make purchases from your credit card immediately, or with your debit card within a few days (there are a couple steps to follow in order to do this). There will be ample instructions for each at Paypal.com, or post here and I'm sure one of us will be able to help you.

    All you need to do to start the transaction is click on the "Send Money" tab, put "springscorcher@hotmail.com" in the To box, and send $10 USD.

    Once you have done these steps, please message me on here or at julie_leblanc@hotmail.com indicating your email address so I know who has sent in money. At the end of the week, I'll post an updated list of who has participated, and I will try check in here throughout the week as well.

    Any questions, feel free to message me!

    Is sending in money mandatory? Because I would totally do it, but I really don't have the money to do so.

    I mean I could maybe do it for a couple weeks, but like I said... I don't exactly have an "income" xD

    Nope, not at all! You don't need to chip in to be a part of the competition. This is just another added factor for some people to indulge in by choice. There will still be one overall winner, regardless of whether or not they paid. If the person who wins isn't someone who took part in the cash incentive, the "biggest loser" out of all those who did participate will get the money.

    So in short, you aren't obligated at all. It's just if you want to!
  • I think $10 is totally do able!!
