MSDN Forum Jam 2010

Wow, didn't expect the crazy responses on the MSDN Ranking post.  Seems I have definitely spurred the competitive community sprit!  In an effort to keep things going with that post, I'm announcing MSDN Forum Jam 2010.  Starting next friday I will hold a contest in the MSDN forums.  For those of you that are not the answering type, please post questions for us to answer!  Here's the details:

  1. Tweet me at @givenscj to say you would like to participate by April 9th, 2010 (MVPs and Non-MVPS welcome)
  2. At 8am on April 10th, I will take a snapshot of all participants points, posts and answers
  3. Contest will end April 29th, the person with (measured in difference between snapshot and 4/29 totals):
    1. Highest Point total wins a $100 gift card
    2. Highest post to answer ratio wins a $100 gift card
    3. Second highest Point total will win a set of ACS SharePoint 2010 training manuals
  4. All posts should be related to SharePoint 2007 or 2010.  We will do various auditing of your posts to ensure they are in the proper forums, if you don't have more than 50%, then you will be disqualified
  5. Moderators are free to participate, but will be unofficially tracked
  6. I'll post updates along the way to let people know where they stand
  7. As with anything, rules are always subject to change but probably won't, this is not endorsed by Microsoft and won't guarantee an MVP [:D]
  8. Be sure to follow Forum etiquette, be nice and civil, recognize others, its all about helpfulness!

If anyone else would like to contribute to the bounty let me know!

Let the community building begin!
