Prizes

For the Spring Scorcher BL, we had an optional money side of things for those who wanted a little extra motivation. We set it it at $10 for the last one, however where this is shorter I was thinking we could set it at $5 (though that's entirely up for discussion). With the last competition nearly all the people who put money in stayed till the end and lost a good bit of weight - and the winner will get $170 to treat themselves! I think it served as a little extra "oomph" to motivation those who partook.

This results in there being two "winners" - there is the overall Biggest Loser and then there is the Biggest Loser out of those who decided to participate with the prizing.

If this is something enough people are interested in, I will create another Paypal account. Putting in money is quite simple (and Paypal accounts are free), and at the end of the competition the winner will get to take over the Paypal account (and they can transfer the funds directly into their bank account).

Let me know what your thoughts are on the matter!

    Okay, so who would like to do $10 and who would like to do $5? If everyone would like to do $10, then great... if not, I think we should stick to $5 to avoid excluding those who would prefer to put in less.
